10-Pin Bowling is a bowling video game developed by Morning Star Multimedia and published by Majesco Sales for the Game Boy Color. Originally announced for Game Boy before shifting development to the newer system,[2] 10-Pin Bowling is one of few Game Boy Color games to support rumble, which is achieved by utilizing a rumble pak built directly into the cartridge.[1][3]
Reception
[edit]
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 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]
