Play Bowling with the rules at hand
Choose a round of Bowling and settle into its rules. Complete ten frames and maximise the score. Use the example below to understand a decision. 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.
Give this approach a try
Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow. Make the next step deliberately.
Your goal
Complete ten frames and maximise the score. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. The example below illustrates a decision.
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.
The controls to know
Lane-position/power sliders and Roll ball. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Contact us with the game and device if a control does not respond.
One way to understand the rules
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. Read the matching step again.
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. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
