Simple bowling game for two players. Your ball is moving continueously up and down on the left side of the screen. Players just have to choose the right moment to throw the ball with the desired effect: hook upward, straight or hook donwnward.

Pretty simple but one of the most enjoyable game for the RCA Studio II.

Also maybe the earliest Bowling video-game as the first arcade bowling version (Meadow Lanes) is dated 1977, and the bowling cartridge for Fairchild Channel F console was released in 1978.
