Kingpin: Arcade Sports Bowling description

Bowling on the screen, in my opinion – the best.

What can you say about bowling? Probably nothing, except that it is a very ordinary bowling, that is, shoot down the balls skittles... control of the game is utterly simple: the arrow cursor up and down to determine the height of the throw, arrows "left" and "right" you can move the model of the player, Enter – throw the ball. The goal, as you might guess, is to knock down as many pins as possible with one blow.

But what's really worth noting – because it is mentioned "the model player". Because she brought me into a state of momentary shock. SUCH three-dimensional graphics in a DOS game in 1995 – perhaps the top technical advances of the time.

The result is summarized in the first sentence – for me this is the best bowling game on the PC and one of the games that best deal with the role of "time killers".
