Find your footing in Bowling
Try Bowling at your own pace and keep its objective in view. Complete ten frames and maximise the score. Use the example below to understand a decision. Treat the first round as a chance to learn the controls. Look at what changes after your first action.
Play ten frames using a two-dimensional bowling lane. Strikes, spares and bonus rolls count towards the total.
Give this approach a try
When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round. Notice the feedback after each input.
What you need to achieve
Complete ten frames and maximise the score. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Try to explain the aim in your own words.
How a round unfolds
- Set lane position and power.
- Roll into the rack.
- A strike ends a normal frame; otherwise roll again.
- The tenth can earn bonus rolls.
How to use the controls
Lane-position/power sliders and Roll ball. Use the control method described here for this activity. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
An example to follow
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. Verify the rule before continuing.
Notice this detail
Bonus-dependent frames may not yet have a confirmed total. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
