How to play Bowling
Bring your attention to one round of Bowling. Complete ten frames and maximise the score. Look at what changes after your first action. Compare the starting position with the example in the Guide. Use the example below to understand a decision.
Play ten frames using a two-dimensional bowling lane. Strikes, spares and bonus rolls count towards the total.
A useful comparison
Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Keep the objective visible.
Your goal
Complete ten frames and maximise the score. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Review the board or playing area as it changes.
Step by step
- Set lane position and power.
- Roll into the rack.
- A strike ends a normal frame; otherwise roll again.
- The tenth can earn bonus rolls.
Controls
Lane-position/power sliders and Roll ball. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Use one clear input at a time.
A useful example
A strike followed by rolls of 4 and 5 makes the strike frame worth 19. An ordinary frame of 4 and 5 is worth 9. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Check the stated objective.
Watch out for this
Bonus-dependent frames may not yet have a confirmed total. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round.
