Bowling Controls
Method 1: Standard
This is the typical control
method, suitable for beginners and those used
to other sports games which use a bar control
system. You can take as long as you like over
your shot and this is the recommended control
method for beginners. Experienced gamers may wish
to use method 2, Tru-Bowl for a quicker, more
immediate control method.
After clicking on the
alley to being your shot, you will be prompted
to line up your shot, as indicated with the big
red arrow. Move the mouse left and right to pick
the line your player will take on her run up to
bowl. When you are satisfied with this line, click
the left mouse button.
The arrow now begins
moving left and right, to indicate where the shot
will be aimed. When the arrow is facing in the
direction you want to aim, quickly click the left
mouse button.
Now a power bar will
appear in the top right of the screen and begin
cycling back and forth. When the bar is where
you want it to be, quickly click the left mouse
button. If you click when the bar is at it's lowest
point, you will bowl a very gentle shot. If you
click when the bar is almost full, you will bowl
a very hard shot.
Finally the arrow will
begin bending back and forth alternately to indicate
the amount and direction of spin or bend you can
apply to your shot. Wait until the arrow indicates
the amount of spin you wish to apply and then
quickly click the left mouse button. If you do
not wish to apply any spin at all, you may also
click the right mouse button to skip this.
Now sit back and watch
your babe bowl the shot you just played. Remember
that you will be able to steer the ball left and
right with the mouse after it has been released,
if you are playing in Arcade mode. Good luck!
Method 2: Tru-Bowl
This is the advanced
control method, and as such, is not recommended
for beginners. Experienced gamers will find this
method to be much quicker and therefore, if you
find the standard control method a little too
rigid and slow, this will be the method for you.
After clicking on the
alley to begin your shot, you will be prompted
to line up your shot, as indicated with the big
red arrow. Move the mouse left and right to pick
the line your player will take on her run up to
bowl. When you are satisfied with this line, click
the left mouse button.
Next you will make your
shot in one sweep of the mouse. You may take as
long as you like at this point to consider your
shot. The shot will not begin until you begin
holding down the left mouse button. At this time,
you may use the right mouse button to display
a quick help guide on how to bowl a Tru-Bowl shot.
Once you are ready to
bowl your shot, press the left mouse button and
- keeping the left mouse button held down, move
the mouse forward to give power to your shot.
Move the mouse a long way forward for a hard shot
and a little way forward for a short shot. At
the same time you will be aiming your shot by
moving the mouse left and right. After a couple
of seconds, or when you release the left mouse
button, both power and aim will be "locked"
at the current position. At this point you will
have a quick opportunity to apply spin or bend
to the shot by moving the mouse left or right.
After around a second, the spin will be locked
too, and the shot will be complete.
Now sit back and watch
your babe bowl the shot you just played. Remember
that you will be able to steer the ball left and
right with the mouse after it has been released,
if you are playing in Arcade mode. Good luck!
