DriftBoss Tips
01Aim for the pocket between the head pin and the one behind it, not at the head pin itself.
02Note what your last throw did and change one thing, not three.
03Spares are worth more than gambling on a strike from a bad split.
04Consistent medium power beats maximum power for pin action.

About Bowling Stars
Bowling Stars plays a full frame structure rather than single throws, which makes consistency across a game the actual skill.
Aim and power are set with one drag gesture, so it works equally well with a mouse or a touch screen.

FAQ
How do I throw a strike?
Hit the pocket rather than the head pin straight on — a slight angle scatters the pins far better.
Does power matter more than aim?
Aim. Excess power sends pins over each other rather than into each other.
Is it a full ten-frame game?
Yes, scoring runs across frames as in standard bowling.
