Description
Bowling is a simple bowling game for 2 players and predecessor to the later RCA Studio II games. Pins are displayed on one side of the screen and a ball moves up and down the other side. The player must press a button at the right time to let it roll towards the pins either straight or in a curve, based on the buttons pressed. The game keeps score and adds some randomization in resolving the impact. Each pin is worth one point, or 15 for a spare, or 25 points for a strike.
