An introduction to playing Bowling
Bring your attention to one round of Bowling. 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 beyond the first move
When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round. Make the next step deliberately.
What counts as success
Complete ten frames and maximise the score. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. The example below illustrates a decision.
From the start of a round
- Set lane position and power.
- Roll into the rack.
- A strike ends a normal frame; otherwise roll again.
- The tenth can earn bonus rolls.
Making selections and moves
Lane-position/power sliders and Roll ball. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
See the idea in action
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. Keep the controls nearby.
Where a round can go wrong
Bonus-dependent frames may not yet have a confirmed total. Check the rule before repeating the action. When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round.
