How to play Bowling
Try Bowling at your own pace and keep its objective in view. Complete ten frames and maximise the score. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Choose a comfortable screen position before beginning. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls.
Play ten frames using a two-dimensional bowling lane. Strikes, spares and bonus rolls count towards the total.
Something to practise
After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Refer to the controls when needed.
What the game asks you to do
Complete ten frames and maximise the score. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Try to explain the aim in your own words.
The steps to play
- Set lane position and power.
- Roll into the rack.
- A strike ends a normal frame; otherwise roll again.
- The tenth can earn bonus rolls.
Input guidance
Lane-position/power sliders and Roll ball. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
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. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Verify the rule before continuing.
Watch out for this
Bonus-dependent frames may not yet have a confirmed total. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
