You can access four lanes: Rockin' Lanes (classic), Hula Bowl (tropical), Starlight Bowl (space) and Alley Alley (back alley).
You can play in four game modes: Open Bowl, Team Game, Tournament and Progressive Play.
The gameplay is very basic.
You always play one-on-one against an opponent.
To throw your ball, you first have to position your bowler towards the left or the right of the alley.
Using the shoulder buttons you can adjust the aiming arrow.
Once you have stopped both the power and accuracy meter using the X button, you hopefully haven't thrown in the gutter.
About PlayStation
The original PlayStation (1994) brought CD-based gaming and 3D graphics to the mainstream, ending Nintendo's console dominance of the previous two generations. It's now firmly in "retro collecting" territory: original jewel cases with intact manuals command a real premium over disc-only copies, and several RPGs from its later years (when Sony deliberately courted the genre) are among the most expensive commonly-collected games from the era.
Gamevaro tracks Big Strike Bowling for PlayStation with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Big Strike Bowling to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS1 release dates back to 2003.
