Play Bowling with the rules at hand

Choose a round of Bowling and settle into its rules. Complete ten frames and maximise the score. Look at what changes after your first action. 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.

Practice with a purpose

After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Use the example to check your reasoning.

What you are aiming for

Complete ten frames and maximise the score. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Take a moment to understand the current position.

Work through the instructions

  1. Set lane position and power.
  2. Roll into the rack.
  3. A strike ends a normal frame; otherwise roll again.
  4. The tenth can earn bonus rolls.

Using the playing area

Lane-position/power sliders and Roll ball. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Look at the feedback after the action.

An example before you play

A strike followed by 4 and 5 scores 19; a spare followed by 7 scores 17. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Keep the controls nearby.

Pay attention to this rule

Bonus-dependent frames may not yet have a confirmed total. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
