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

Choosing and moving on screen
Lane-position/power sliders and Roll ball. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Use one clear input at a time.
Put the rules into context
A strike followed by 4 and 5 scores 19; a spare followed by 7 scores 17. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Consider the next action carefully.
Watch out for this
Bonus-dependent frames may not yet have a confirmed total. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
