Bowling

Bowling is a free online ten-pin bowling game. Line up on the lane, roll the ball with a touch of hook and try to knock down all ten pins for a strike across ten frames. Play bowling online free with no download and no sign-up, on phone or desktop.

How to play

• Tap the line to place the ball where you want to start your roll.
• Swipe up the lane toward the pins to aim and throw — a longer or faster swipe rolls harder.
• Angling your swipe gives the ball a hook that curves back toward the pins.
• Knock all ten pins on the first ball for a strike, or clear the rest on the second for a spare.
• Play all ten frames — standard scoring rewards strikes and spares with bonus pins.

Aim for the pocket — the gap between the head pin and the pin just behind it on your stronger side — rather than straight at the front pin; that angle triggers the chain reaction that clears the whole rack. A little hook helps the ball arrive at the pocket on an angle, which knocks down more pins than a dead-straight hit.
