Description

Ninepins can be enjoyed with 2 or more players. The object of the game is to knock down as many of the wooden pins as possible with each roll of the ball. The first player to score exactly 31 points is the winner. To begin, the ninepins are setup at one end of a table or at a mark on the floor, in three rows of three that form a diamond shape. The players set a mark at some distance from the pins where they will stand when rolling the ball. Each player bowls both balls, tallies the the score, replaces the pins and passes the balls to the next player in turn. Players continue to knock down pins until someone wins by scoring 31 points. If a player goes over 31 points, that player must continue to take turns until he or she knocks down all the ninepins in one turn, to win the game.

Tabletop Ninepins is a solid wood game with pins standing 5" in height and balls 2" in diameter. It is recreated from accounts and print sources from Colonial Williamsburg, VA.
