Bowling: a guide for your next round

Bowling gives you a focused activity to play in your browser. Complete ten frames and maximise the score. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Choose a comfortable screen position before beginning. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.

Play ten frames using a two-dimensional bowling lane. Strikes, spares and bonus rolls count towards the total.

One thing to notice as you play

Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Use the example to check your reasoning.

Aim for this result

Complete ten frames and maximise the score. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Try to explain the aim in your own words.

Step by step

  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.

Keyboard and screen 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.

Learn from a sample situation

A strike followed by 4 and 5 scores 19; a spare followed by 7 scores 17. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Take a moment to compare.

A common point of confusion

Bonus-dependent frames may not yet have a confirmed total. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
