Playing video games can be quite a lot of fun. Yet there’s something to playing physical games, whether it’s bowling, pinball, basketball, or whatever else. If only there was a way to combine the expansive and imaginative fun of a video game with something like bowling. In fact, there actually is, and it’s called HyperBowling! If you’re looking for something that can be a ton of fun for the whole family, HyperBowling might be the perfect activity to try.
A Quick History of HyperBowling
This fun and fast-growing spin on bowling was invented by QubicaAMF, which is one of the largest bowling supplies supplier companies in the world. If you bowl on a regular basis, there’s a good chance you’ve already used the company’s products at some point. This revolutionary approach to bowling was first unveiled at the 2018 International Amusements and Attractions Expo (IAAPA), and since then, it has been gaining a lot of steam.
The Basics of HyperBowling
This bowling game uses gutters on the sides of the bowling lanes. However, these gutters aren’t meant simply to reduce gutter balls. The gutters will light up; if you hit the right colors, you can get multipliers, meaning your score will quickly rise.
With this spin on bowling, the bumpers are lit up in a variety of colors. If you bump the bowling ball off at least one bumper, it’ll impact the score. If you hit a green spot, for example, your score is doubled. Strike a purple spot? Your score is multiplied 10 times over! Hit a red spot, however, and your score drops to zero, so aim carefully!
Fun for All Ages
Bowling is a great activity for individuals of all ages. This bowling variant is especially appealing to younger folks, many of whom are familiar with video games and other tech-enabled activities. At the same time, according to ZipDo, roughly half of bowling consumers are under 34 years old. This makes this bowling game an especially attractive option for family events, like birthday parties.
That said, bowling can still be a ton of fun for older folks and offers a great way to get some exercise. Further, since HyperBowling uses bumpers, even the youngest kids can participate with ease. Just make sure the adults are prepared to lose some matches. Want to give it a go? Stop by our bowling lanes at Lodi Bowling today!
