How to play Motion Bowling

  1. When it is your turn, tilt your phone left or right to aim. A dotted line on the TV shows where the ball will go.
  2. Hold READY and swing your phone gently forward, like rolling a ball. A faster swing is a faster ball.
  3. Twist your wrist as you swing to curve the ball into the pins.
  4. No motion sensor? Drag to aim and swipe up to bowl instead.

Motion Bowling turns your phone into the ball. Frames, strikes, spares and the tenth frame bonus balls all follow real ten-pin rules, and the pins fly with proper physics. Play a full Classic game, a three frame Quick game, Team bowling with shared scores, Target challenges that ask you to pick off tricky splits, or Trick Shot setups with blockers on the lane. Only gentle wrist movements are needed, and touch controls work on every phone.
