Bring this focus to a round

After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Notice the feedback after each input.

The objective of a round

Complete ten frames and maximise the score. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.

How a round unfolds

  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 to use the controls

Lane-position/power sliders and Roll ball. Use the control method described here for this activity. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.

A useful example

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. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Keep the controls nearby.

Keep this in mind

Bonus-dependent frames may not yet have a confirmed total. Compare the situation with the worked example. When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round.
