Illusion Bowling is all about rolling balls through a world of optical illusion. You have to hit a bowling pin with a ball but it is impossible in the normal world. Only by using new pathways that get created by optical illusions it becomes possible. Your tool for creating the optical illusion pathways is merely changing the view perspective. If two distant platforms look from a certain view angle as if they touch each other then the ball can roll over from one platform to the other, like over a virtual bridge. This way you can create virtual bridges, virtual walls or shift the ball sideways by scratching one platform over another. • 66 levels • No advertisements • No In-App Purchases.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Rolling Around at Free against Illusion Bowling's $3.99. Rolling Around also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 73%). Illusion Bowling's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.7 vs 4.3). On in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Rolling Around is free to download; Illusion Bowling costs $3.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Illusion Bowling holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Illusion Bowling has 236 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Rolling Around's written reviews are positive against 73% of Illusion Bowling's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
