counted as downed pins. The number of pins downed (blank dice) in the ￿rst roll is recorded in the upper left corner of the player’s frame score box. The player then gets to roll a second time. On the second roll, the player rolls all of the dice that landed with a bowling pin face up (pins left standing).

If a “/” appears on any of the dice on the second roll, the player has rolled a “spare” (all pins downed with two rolls) and their turn ends. The “/” or the number of pins downed in the second roll is recorded in the upper right hand corner of the player’s frame score box. A completed frame is either a strike, spare, or total downed pins after two rolls. Play then passes to the next player. Play continues as above until all ten frames have been completed.

Scoring: Score like regular bowling. Count the total number of downed pins in each frame and add to the running total. Record the running total in the bottom portion of each frame score box. A strike counts as 10 plus the total of your next two rolls. (i.e. a strike in the ￿rst frame followed by rolls of ￿ve and three would score 18 in the ￿rst frame, the second frame would score eight for a total of 26 after two frames.) A spare counts as 10 plus the next roll. The 10th frame has extra boxes in case the ￿rst roll in that frame is a strike or the second is a spare.
