Build familiarity through play
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. Refer to the controls when needed.
The purpose of your moves
Complete ten frames and maximise the score. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Keep the controls in easy reach.
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 your actions work
Lane-position/power sliders and Roll ball. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. A new-round button replaces the current round.
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. Check the stated objective.
Check this before moving on
Bonus-dependent frames may not yet have a confirmed total. Check the rule before repeating the action. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
