What is Strike! Ten Pin Bowling like?

Up to four take turns on the same lane, throwing with the Joy-Con like in Wii Sports.

Up to four bowl in turns on the same lane, swinging a Joy-Con to throw, and three or four players can share just two Joy-Con. Besides classic ten pin there are candlepin and duckpin games, a three-game series, three minigames and Mega Lane, which fills the lane with a huge number of pins. In handheld mode you flick the ball on the touchscreen instead. There's no online play, so everyone has to be in the same room, and a full game for four takes well under an hour.
