Ah, bowling. What game better represents the true alley experience? And the more puzzling question: why do I like this game? A riddle for the ages. Perhaps because it's relatively simple to play yet difficult to master.
Note the Charlie Brown haircut, denim outfit and standard black rental shoes.
The main problem I have is that there is very little to mock about this game.
1. Put a foul line in
2. Give the guy a beer belly (for a hint of realism)
3. Put down the little arrow aiming marks
4. Change the numbers--why does Atari work in only one font?
5. Create a more realistic ball-hitting-pins sound
So if you like bowling or you're just a loner with nothing to do but sit around your one-room apartment smoking up and wearing a worn-out army jacket, "Bowling" is the game for you.
