How to Play

  1. Objective: Knock down as many pins as possible across 10 frames. The maximum score is 300 if you achieve strikes in every frame.

    • A spare (knocking down all pins in two rolls) gives you a bonus score from the next roll.
    • If you leave pins standing after 2 rolls, the number of knocked-down pins counts as your frame score.
  3. Scoring:
    • Strike: 10 points plus the total of your next two rolls.
    • Spare: 10 points plus the total of your next roll.
    • Open Frame: The total number of pins knocked down in the frame.
