Complete ten frames and maximise the score. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Check the rules when you are unsure.
A walkthrough of the rules

- The tenth can earn bonus rolls.
Your inputs
Lane-position/power sliders and Roll ball. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Use one clear input at a time.
A closer look at one example
A strike followed by rolls of 4 and 5 makes the strike frame worth 19. An ordinary frame of 4 and 5 is worth 9. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Notice the change in the playing area.
Watch out for this
Bonus-dependent frames may not yet have a confirmed total. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
