Trick Bowling for Android

While the rules of Trick Bowling are simple, discovering those trick shots that result in higher scores is the key strategy to develop in order to become the highest ranking player. The integrated new timer based scoring system eliminates the possibility of the traditional restrictions that occur when players tie for first place with scores of 300. During a set, race against the timer to attempt to knock down all the pins. There is no limit to the times the ball can be rolled, however the faster the pins are knocked down, the higher the resulting score. The game incorporates many different challenging and interesting patterns ranging from the traditional 10 pin set to various shapes and characters. Some sets have the "gutters" replaced by "side rails." This creates the ability within the game to roll bank shots as the ball will bounce off the rail back towards the lane. To begin each roll, the ball is placed at a random position on the lane. The player can move the ball left or right the width of the lane. There is full ability to change the angle of the ball roll incorporated into the game. For example, player can move the ball to one edge of the lane and roll the ball across the lane to the opposite side. All these different controls are required to manipulate the ball and successfully knock down all the pins as some patterns will have one or more posts on the lane. To knock down pins placed behind the posts, it is sometimes necessary to roll a curve around the posts or roll a bank shot off the side rails. The faster the pins are knocked down, the higher the subsequent score. Curve shots and bank shots also have a slight scoring bonus over straight shots. Some patterns may be impossible to clear without using a curve or bank shot. The bowling ball and pins can also be customized to the players preferred color and design for a personalized touch.
