Bowling is an event that has featured in both Marble ManiaX and the Marble League. The goal of the event is to earn as many points as possible by knocking down different colored dominoes which act as the pins.
Rules[]
One member of the team descends down a steep track through a loop-the-loop (vertical loop) which leads into a ramp. The marble is launched off the ramp and lands on the bowling lane which contains a bump. They then roll over the bump and down the rest of the track towards different-colored dominoes that act as bowling pins, avoiding coming off the track for a "gutterball". Each team sends two separate marbles for the bowls. Unlike in regular bowling, pins that fall are not removed during the second bowl. After each team has completed their frame, points are scored, and the team with the most points wins. The scores for knocking over a domino are shown below, along with their rarities.
For the Marble League version, the loop, the ramp and the bump in the bowling lane were removed. Furthermore, the track leading down towards the bowling lane was shorter, as well as the bowling lane itself, and there were fewer dominoes to knock over.
