About Robot Bowl
Manipulate a robot bowler's trajectory using five dedicated buttons to execute left, right, and hook shots. Utilizing the hook mechanic after the ball is thrown allows for picking up spares, though the game's physics create difficult splits. This monochrome arcade title features a top-down view and supports both single-player and multiplayer modes.
Player layout in our catalog: 2P alt.
