Rules:
A player rolls a ball to knock down the ten bowling pins in an equilateral triangle formation at the end of the lane.
Lane assignment and the order of play are determined by drawing lots. The player assigned to the left lane starts the game. During the game, participants take turns throwing the bowling ball from behind the foul line, aiming to knock down the wooden pins. A game consists of 10 frames, and after several games, scores are calculated based on the number of pins knocked down. The player with the highest score will win the game.
If all ten pins are knocked down in the first throw (i.e. a strike), there is no need for a second throw, and the score is 30 points, with a maximum of 300 points per game.
If not all ten pins are knocked down in the first throw, a second throw is required:
- When the remaining pins are knocked down (i.e. a spare), the score is 10 points plus the number of pins knocked down in the first throw.
- When a spare is not achieved, the score is the total number of pins knocked down in the first and second throws.
