Gameplay
Set the direction of your shot and adjust its strength before striking the cue ball. Aiming at a pocket is only part of the problem: the angle of contact determines where the object ball travels, while the cue ball’s final position affects the next shot. Different rule sets change which balls are legal targets and what counts toward winning. Options include familiar games such as eight-ball and nine-ball, giving the same table different objectives. Computer opponents provide matches for solo play, and the game also includes challenge situations built around difficult shots. Success comes from reading the table before committing to a stroke. A forceful hit can move several balls, but an accurately placed softer shot may leave a much simpler follow-up. Each turn links the current attempt to your next opportunity.
