How to play Bowling
Read the aim of Bowling, then make your first move. Complete ten frames and maximise the score. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Read the objective before making your first input. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.
Play ten frames using a two-dimensional bowling lane. Strikes, spares and bonus rolls count towards the total.
Notice the feedback
Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention. Notice the feedback after each input.
Your goal
Complete ten frames and maximise the score. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Notice how the game responds to your input.
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. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. A new-round button replaces the current round.
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. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Choose a deliberate next step.
Watch out for this
Bonus-dependent frames may not yet have a confirmed total. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
