The goal to keep in mind
Complete ten frames and maximise the score. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.
Work through the instructions
- Set lane position and power.
- Roll into the rack.
- A strike ends a normal frame; otherwise roll again.
- The tenth can earn bonus rolls.
Your inputs
Lane-position/power sliders and Roll ball. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Use the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.
Try this 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. Look for the relevant detail.
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. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
