Is It Any Good?

Our review:
Parents say ( 1 ):
Kids say ( 2 ):

Just like the real game, Skee-ball is hard to walk away from, but at least you're not shelling out money. The production values are high, with realistic surfaces, smooth animation, and convincing sound effects of a ball rolling on wood. The instant tallies and quick reloads keep you trying just one more time to score a better pocket. Competitor Ramp Champ has more bells and whistles, but Skee-ball has the authenticity gamers crave.
