How to Play Tenpin Bowling
- A game is made up of ten frames per bowler.
- In frames 1-9 you get up to two rolls to knock down all ten pins.
- A strike (all ten pins on the first roll) scores 10 plus the pins from your next two rolls.
- A spare (all ten pins across both rolls) scores 10 plus the pins from your next roll.
- The tenth frame gets a third roll if you bowl a strike or a spare.
- The bowler with the highest total score wins.
