Bring this focus to a round
Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Refer to the controls when needed.
Understand the aim
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.
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.
Controls
Lane-position/power sliders and Roll ball. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
Try this example
A strike followed by 4 and 5 scores 19; a spare followed by 7 scores 17. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Keep the game’s format in mind.
Pay attention to this rule
Bonus-dependent frames may not yet have a confirmed total. Check the rule before repeating the action. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
