THE PLAYBOOK · XJFDJSZP

Understand the basics of Bowling

Open Bowling, check the instructions and begin a round. Complete ten frames and maximise the score. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Identify the playing area and the controls you need. 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.

Try a more deliberate round

Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart. Make the next step deliberately.

What the game asks you to do

Complete ten frames and maximise the score. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Review the board or playing area as it changes.

A walkthrough of the rules

  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.

Choosing and moving on screen

Lane-position/power sliders and Roll ball. Use the control method described here for this activity. Use one clear input at a time.

Learn from a sample situation

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. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Take a moment to compare.

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.
