Rules

Any number of players may play.

One pin on each of the 10 dice represents 10 pins standing on the alley.

Any pin on TOP OF THE DICE after a throw is considered still standing. Return these to cup after 1st throw, for 2nd throw.

Each player gets 2 throws eahc frame, (if necessary) to knock down all 10 pins.

If all pins are knocked dwon on 1st throw, it's a strike, place "X" in small box, upper right the in that frame. "Strike" gives player 10 in that frame plus number of pins knocked down on next 2 throws.

If all pins are knocked down in 2 throws it's a "Spare" Place diagonal mark in small box, upper right in that frame. "Spare" gives player 10 in that frame plus number of pins knocked down on next 1 throw.

To save extra throws on "Strike" or "Spare", instead of taking extra throw or throws at that time, take count from nextl or 2 throws taken in regular turn, except in 10th frame.

If all pins not knocked down in 2 throws count only pins knocked down in that frame.

Transcriber Notes

• The scan is image-only. The text above was read from the page image and checked against it line by line.
• Printed typos are kept as they appear on the sheet: "eahc" (each), "dwon" (down) and "nextl" (next 1).
• Where a letter is broken or smudged on the scan, it is read from context: "upper right th-" in the strike rule is read as "the", and the broken letters in "throw" and "that" in the save-extra-throws rule are read as "throw" and "that".
• The sheet's title block (game name, publisher and year) is attribution and is not transcribed as rules.
