The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism, with many users labeling it a "cash grab" due to the heavy reliance on microtransactions and frequent ads.

The game's optimization is lacking, particularly on Android devices, where users report crashes and poor performance at higher resolutions like 1440p. While the gameplay is enjoyable and realistic, there is a call for a wider selection of high-performance bowling balls and better customization options. Overall, the experience is hindered by technical issues that detract from the fun.
- “Now that I've leveled up enough to get a higher performance ball, I'm finding it a lot more fun.”
- “Very realistic, but needs a larger selection of 'big name' high performance bowling balls and a '2 pin' placement on the balls for a number of custom weight balances. If these were the best brand balls, there would have been some track balls. Just a suggestion, but I love this game!”
- “Not optimized for Android; when I watch ads for Belmo slots, the game crashes.”
- “Game performance is poor at 1440p with Galaxy Note 9.”
- “I'm a bowler and can turn a regular ball into a performance ball on the lanes; this you can't do anything with, so don't waste your time.”

Overall, players find the comedic moments entertaining, even if they come with a few bugs.

- “Just a little bug, the pinsetter sweep is acting a bit funny (there are graphical glitches on the sweep), but otherwise a very good game.”
- “And still a few kinks to work out... the pins do some really funny things from time to time, but it's good for a laugh.”
