Crazy Strike Bowling EX

Fun, simple, and easy. You can make it harder with Crazy mode. Different costumes greatly increase stats. Make sure you hold and release A when setting meters. Lots of challenges and unlockables. Great local multiplayer.

In terms of standard play, the game is fun. I like the visuals and the physics seem well enough, but crazy mode is worthless. It is simply way too hard since the spinning aspect seems very unreliable and unfair. The obstacles that get in your way will block the ball 95% of the time and even if they don't you won't get a good hit. The voices also suck, a lot. Wish we could turn them off. Overall I like the game, but the spin feature needs work and crazy mode should be redone entirely.

As much as gamers hated the kinect I used to get perfect games on ks bowling so I was tempted to pick up this title for 13bucks. Timing really is everything here, and the game uses 2 meters as well as a QTE for powers, bit like powerstar golf w an easy quicktime. Not at all disappointed with the content, 6 playable characters that can be customized a lot, so much that you need to get a feel not only4each bowler but their outfits as well. 4 game modes include a regular bowling match, an obstrucive version w obstacles, items, and powers, a battle mode where you out pace an opponent, and challenges which are strictly single player. Downsides are that wo online play coupled w a lack of ai (excepting battle mode) you really need a 2nd player to get a proper match going. Crazy mode is crazy confusing, why does my ball spin like that? I have no idea. Lastly the voice acting is laughably bad. Enough to remind me that I am playing a low budget anime title. That said, it is alot of fun.gg

I bought this game on a whim for full price (a steal for this 💎)- family was coming for July 4, and I wanted a new local 4-player game. The presentation is a fun bright anime-style world; other reviewers' comparisons to the Hot Shots series aren't off base. This game eschews motion controls, instead using a mix of analog stick positioning and the return of a multi-click gauge for power and spin. This makes it very playable across skill levels, and the fun really shines in 4-player local multiplayer! I have always considered bowling 🎳 to be a local multiplayer experience for friends and family, so the lack of online play means nothing to me. There are many unlockables, plus an RPG-lite progression system to level up your characters and increase their stats! Graphics, music, and sfx are all well done. I'd love to see optional Kinect controls, and support for multiple profiles (only one profile gets achievements). However, this is the best bowling 🎳 on Xbox One! Don't pass it up!

Nice amount of unlockable mixed with great arcade gameplay. 2 different types of bowling. crazy adds special moves with slopes and minigolf like obstacles. Also has a versus mode. Several cool fantasy lanes. Its basically hot shot gokf but bowling instead. Similar spin and 3 click system. you upgrade the different characters and get new costume. Game worth 30-40$ IMO a steal for 13.
