Strike

Strike is a game that allows you to play 10 pin bowling against a friend or
a computer player (skill level 1-4). The game follows the rules of bowling
where you have to knock down 10 pins at the end of the lane with two shots
unless you get a strike on the first throw. You play over 10 rounds and the
winner is the player with the highest score. The game has an isometric view
showing the player at the start of the lane.

To throw the ball you first have to position your bowler by moving his feet
left or right. When you are happy with your position you press up and hold
down the fire button. You release the fire button at the right time as you
approach the line. Let go too soon and you drop the ball and hold on too long
and you throw the ball in the air to land on your foot. If you release
correctly you see the ball move up the lane and off screen. A box in the top
left corner shows the pin positions and the ball hitting them. The bottom
right has your scorecard. Once you have had your two shots then the computer
or friend throws. A joystick or keyboard is used to control your bowler.
