Limited play

You have to wait often in order to play. Each game takes more and more “payment” to play. And your fake money doesn’t add up fast enough. So you play one game then have to wait 30 minutes. Or you can pay money. People want you to play their game, for a cost.

All my progress…gone

Logging on to the game on a new device with the same account reset all my progress. Balls, Lanes, Currencies, gone

Bummer

Been playing off and on for years. Unfortunately, this game has become just one long advertisement now. Even in airplane mode, advertisements will pop up in the middle of a game causing you to constantly lose. It’s now a pay to progress game. Very disappointed, but I’ll continue to play practice because it is/was the best bowling game.
