About the game

What is Bowling Solitaire?

Bowling Solitaire was designed by Sid Sackson and published on his A Gamut of Games. According to him, he created this game because of his distaste for solitaire games in which a red 9 is placed on a black 10. In this game, standard playing cards are used to simulate a round of bowling.
