Seriously Hooked! SKILLZ is the only one who's created games that are so completely realistic you actually feel like you're bowling. And they're honest ..especially about winning -there's no BS like in those bingo games.

Thanks support staff for being so tentative. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Show me the money! *2026-05-17, version 1.18.0* The incentive to deposit dwindles because it takes weeks to cash out. The email I received explaining this is quite astonishing. ### 1/5 — Rigged *2026-04-15, version 1.17.0* Why is it when u actually play for money the replay system never works 10000% rigged. I was winning by 30 pins then all the sudden the gameplay for my opponent ends. Another one didnt work at all ### 1/5 — Bogus *2026-01-22, version 1.17.0* I’ve thrown so many got damn perfect balls just to come up with no strike. It’s really ridiculous. Gotta be something funny going on behind the scenes. I won’t load any money that’s for sure. ### 1/5 — Crashes all the time *2026-01-07, version 1.17.0* This used to be a good game, now it’s constantly crashing. How they get away with letting people bet real money is beyond me. Rarely make it thru an entire game without crashing. It’s ridiculous. ### 1/5 — Game stupid *2026-01-03, version 1.17.0* The game is stupid because it won’t let me roll the ball straight and I keep missing everything and u need to make it practice ### 1/5 — Skillz bowling *2025-12-30, version 1.16.0* F’ n Awesome ,stupendous, best bowling game ever……: Until this new update that stop me from playing because i don't have a 7.1.0 phone. Thats just wrong. Fixxxxxx ### 1/5 — Won’t work *2025-12-24, version 1.17.0* It won’t let me deposit money into my account ### 1/5 — Down load & bend over.... *2025-12-23, version 1.17.0* It's all fun & games until you start winning. Cashed out $30 once, can't get up to $15 now. Few months of play later and 80% of the time you don't get matched until 10-30 min later. Ok algorithm matches your skill set with like players, but the odds of loosing by a few points consistently on games your waiting to be matched on a global net isn't random. Then came the glitch in the scam... Played a game, waiting to be matched to a player, started another game immediately matched from the start & lost....go to check prior game, now pending, waiting for the same player I just lost to as he is now playing it. Ok, timing with his last game, makes sense....start another game and matched to the same player, WAIT WHAT, exit out of that game AND ITS STILL PENDING on the same guy to finish playing who I'm play currently playing again.. game who miraculously beats me by 1 point. ☝🏼may be I suck & and that was an impossible glitch, lets jump in the games forum and ask what everyone else has withdrawn & anything funky they notice. NO CAN DO, 1st response, a moderater "I don't make withdraws" wtf? I say "That's nice, not relevant, but good for you". 2nd response 🤣🤣🤣, 3rd is a Diff MOD "hey y'all" then the 1st MOD "hey" As they go back & forth saying nothing, I jump in "its funny how MOD's start filling up the thread (as you can't go back to read what goes off the screen) with pointless talk when ?'s are asked like mine" Hours later, after looking up Skillz 10k SEC filing I point out how the Executives banked over 1/2 a Billion $'s in 2024.... I thought the server was gonna crash how fast the number of MOD's and "random players" jumped in simultaneously to say nothing about my comment just to get it off the screen. If you like the evil in the world and want to progress it, down load the app and bend over, it's all in the Skillz. ### 1/5 — Promo code *2025-12-17, version 1.17.0* Where is the promo code because obviously I can’t play in the games that I like without the promo code. I will not deposit any on a gaming platform without playing the game first and foremost to see rather or not if it’s worth my spare or free time because all I know the games could be rigged like the majority of them mostly are . I wouldn’t have even downloaded the game itself if there wasn’t a promo code or reward entry for downloading the game and and playing. ### 1/5 — DO NOT DOWNLOAD *2025-11-27, version 1.16.1* This game is absolutely rigged and does not let you win ANYTHING the ball spins automatically without you putting spin on it and the players are clearly bots just from seeing the account profile pics THIS GAME IS FRAUD ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Skills Bowling *2026-08-19, version 1.19.0* Great bowling. Try to make some money and enjoy doing it. ### 5/5 — Strike *2026-08-16, version 1.19.0* Great game ### 5/5 — Kicka$$ *2026-08-12, version 1.19.0* Love getting money and playing something I enjoy as well ### 5/5 — AWESOME GAME *2026-08-09, version 1.19.0* Love playing this bowling game. It is absolutely the best bowling app out there!!! ### 5/5 — What A Blast! *2026-08-01, version 1.19.0* Enjoying this game! ### 5/5 — TonyTenPin *2026-07-28, version 1.19.0* I like it! It seems like there’s a glitch with getting matched up for paid games. Sometimes you have to wait after you finish your game to get paired with someone. Then you can wait awhile on the app waiting. I feel like some matches I don’t know if I actually won? ### 5/5 — Bowlaro *2026-07-27, version 1.19.0* Awsome game love it need more match up not robots ### 5/5 — Create app best bowling up out there by far no comparison all the other ones are lame compared to th *2026-07-15, version 1.19.0* Five star awesome good job ### 5/5 — Bowling!!! *2026-07-15, version 1.19.0* What’s not to love it’s bowling ### 5/5 — Love for the game *2026-07-09, version 1.19.0* It’s just like being at the bowling alley by far the best bowling experience on a phone --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
