Bowling Ballers

released on Nov 10, 2021

Available exclusively for Netflix members. In most endless runners, you want to avoid objects. Bor-ing! Play Bowling Ballers and knock down as many of those pesky pins as possible. Bowling Ballers is a bowling endless runner that includes a level-based mode. Actively hit objects rather than avoid them. Mechanics include skateboarding, flying and more, all with simple, intuitive gameplay.

Another simple arcade-like from Frosty Pop with Netflix. Coins have no purpose, IAP-like, repetitive levels. Didn't stick with it as no evolution to the game.

The bowling theme is nice but it doesn't add anything. The ball is meek and can't knock anything down besides the pins who acts as just another currency to collect.


It's pretty but it's also just a runner.

i love the idea but there's so much i don't like unfortunately, i wish you could change the control sensitivity that's like the biggest issue i have it's so baaaad
the game just feels eh, there are levels to play and an endless mode but the levels are kinda not fun tbh, and i just didn't feel like playing much cause it felt kinda boring ;;;;;

It's a well done enough game, but it's just not for me. I found the first few areas and the endless mode to hit a sweet spot of fun, but... once you've played it for 15 minutes, it feels like you've experienced the entire game, full of the same thing over and over again. If you like endless runners, maybe you'll dig this, but I found that it was so easy to get burnt out super quick because it just doesn't do enough to pull you into its gameplay loop.

If I was being objective with my score, I might give it a 4? It does have a wealth of content in its level variety, it does have an endless mode, and there's plenty of unlockables to make the game look fresh. But this is a subjective review. I tried to get into it more, pushed myself to play more levels, more endless mode, and I just kept thinking about how I could be playing something else. So I'm off to try other Netflix games before my subscription expires next month haha.

Eu não sei muito bem porque eu gastei tanto tempo num runner meio genérico como Bowling Ballers. Talvez seja a falta de ads por ser da Netflix? Talvez seja a variedade de obstáculos que é maior do que eu esperava? Talvez seja o fato de ter fases ao invés de ser infinito? Nunca saberemos.
