Nice, a bowling game !! This (apart from the follow up) is the only bowling game on the Saturn so you'd expect it to be at least half decent. Unfortunately it's not ! More effort was put in to the talentless "idols" than the actual game engine. Basically what we have here is a dating game based around a poor bowling simulation. Choose one of the "idols" to be your partner with another joining you automatically then battle it out against the remaining 3 "idols". To be honest I wouldn't mind this idol stuff if the game was good. The control and timing of the power bar used to judge your shot is just so cheap making it more luck than anything else.

Dull, looks bad and plays bad. Don't bother even if you MUST have a bowling game and why oh why must the Japanese put F**king "idols" in everything?  Why not make a real kick arse bowling game?
