Hit the lanes with chutzpah in this budget-friendly bowling game from Crave. Developed by Lab Rats Games, creator of the PC's Fast Lanes Bowling (released the previous year),

Strike Force offers a seemingly familiar selection of eight caricatured characters, both realistic and wacky lane settings, and interesting alterations of the standard rules. Players can try bowling on a pirate ship, in ancient Egypt, or even on the moon.

Along with the standard rules and scoring options, game types such as Skins, Tournament Play, and Golf Mode add variety. While Strike Force Bolwing's attitude may be over the top, the action is authentic, running on a Lab Rats physics engine designed to accurately represent ball and pin collisions.



  MANUFACTURER'S DESCRIPTION:

You no longer have to wait for league night to enjoy the fun of competitive bowling! Taking the game to a whole new level, Strike Force Bowling features authentic real time physics in an easy-to-use arcade style control. Pins never quite fall the same way twice, bowling balls react according to a combination of spin, material and lane friction. With Strike Force Bowling, you donšt have to rent a pair of bowling shoes to have a great game!

- Noise of the alley getting on your nerves? Take your game on the road! Knock over skull-tipped pins on the pitching deck of a pirate ship. Play under the watchful eyes of the Sphinx in ancient Egypt. Bowl over tiki heads at the end of a pier on a tropical island. These and other exotic locations await!
- Six unique play modes keep things interesting, including Skins, Golf, Challenge and Practice modes, as well as Open and Tournament play.
- Choose from eight high-polygon players, complete with their own animated reactions to gameplay. Bowling styles can be customized according to strength, accuracy and curve.
- Multiplayer mode allows for up to four players, or play against computer-controlled opponents.
- Alley balls were never this good! Choose from an assortment of designs, including the Eliminator, Inferno, Paradise Hammer and Halloween Bomber, each with its own compound and weight.
