Keeping Score: Bowling Scoring
Hello Bowlers! Let's get you started with a quick guide on scoring in the game.
Scoring Basics
In Bowling Crew, scoring is straightforward and follows traditional bowling rules. The only difference is that a real game of bowling consists of 10 frames, while a Bowling Crew game consists of 3 frames.
Scoring in Each Frame
One point is scored for each pin that is knocked down. However, when all ten pins are knocked down, the scoring works as follows:
- Strike (X): Knock down all ten pins in one roll. Score 10 plus points from the next two rolls.
- Spare (/): Knock down all ten pins in two rolls. Score 10 plus points from the next roll.
- Open Frame: Score the total pins knocked down if not all pins are down.
Remember that the third frame allows up to three rolls. Get an extra roll for a strike or spare.
Every serious player aspires to bowl what is called the Perfect Game. The maximum score for a single frame is 30, so rolling a Perfect Game in Bowling Crew means getting 90 points.
