10-Pin Bowling starts with minimal setup for one or two players, then straight into a standard ten-frame bowling match. To bowl, players align an arrow to choose their position, then hold the A button to activate a shot bar. As the bar fills, players control the ball's speed and curve. Releasing the button before it hits the red zone is crucial, or it counts as a foul.[1]
Development
The game was developed by Morning Star Multimedia, a company founded in 1995.[4]
Craig Harris, writing for IGN, described the game as "entirely basic and stripped down" and opined that it was "as basic as you can get on the Game Boy."[1] In their review, German magazine Video Games[de; fr] was critical of the lack of variety of gameplay between the two game modes, the limited controls, and lack of accompanying music. The reviewer concluded that the game was "for extreme freaks only".[3]
All Game Guide said "Overall, this is a fair title that should have had more features. With at least two other bowling games available for the system, gamers are advised to shop around a bit first".[5]
