Learn the rules of Bowling

Try Bowling at your own pace and keep its objective in view. Complete ten frames and maximise the score. Look at what changes after your first action. Begin with the solo mode shown on the page. 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

Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention. Refer to the controls when needed.

The purpose of your moves

Complete ten frames and maximise the score. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.

Follow these playing steps

  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.

How your actions work

Lane-position/power sliders and Roll ball. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Contact us with the game and device if a control does not respond.

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. Look for the relevant detail.

An important reminder

Bonus-dependent frames may not yet have a confirmed total. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
