How to play
Open a lane and other members can join it from Games, then Open lanes. You can also practise on your own with no opponent.
Slide the ball sideways at the bottom of the lane to line up your shot, then swipe up to bowl. Curve the swipe to hook the ball.
Scoring follows normal ten-pin rules, with strikes and spares marked on the scorecard. The highest score at the end wins.
How to start a game
- Create a free 808 Teens account and log in at 808teens.com/teenchat. Sign-up is free and the chat is for ages 13 to 19.
- Open a private chat with the person you want to play and tap the Games button, or open Games from the chat menu.
- Pick the game and send the challenge. Game invites show up in the notification bell, so your friend can accept from anywhere in the chat.
Tips
- Pick one starting spot and stick with it, then adjust your angle instead of your position.
- A small hook into the pocket between the front pin and the one beside it gives the best strike chance.
- On a spare, aim straight at the pins that are left rather than hooking.
