The game is tricky because the angle tends to shift. Once you clear all your balls, you can shoot the black 8 ball. The goal is to finish your assigned balls the fastest. You basically shot your opponent’s ball, making it easier for them to clear their set. If you shoot a ball that is not assigned to you, it is considered a foul. Likewise, player 2 will have to hit and shoot all striped balls in the hole. For example, if player 1 puts a solid number 2 ball in a hole first, they have to hit and shoot all solid colored balls. The player who scores a ball first gets assigned a group of balls. 7 are striped while 7 come in solid colors. This game simulates pool or billiards, in particular, the 8 ball game. Typically if the cue ball follows the 8 ball into a pocket that is considered a scratch and the player loses, though this game ends as soon as the 8 ball goes in the pocket.Players try to get all their balls into the side or corner pockets, then finish with the 8 ball after all the other solids or stripes are in the pockets.Whoever makes the first ball in gets to be that ball type while the other player is the other ball type.One player will be solids and the other player will be stripes.Unfortunately the guide paths only show how the first ball will respond to being struck by the cue and do not show how they would impact a second or third ball.The guide paths can be good for helping to teach kids physics.This game offers dashed white and green guidelines which will show where the cue ball will go on its path across the table until it strikes the second ball and the angle where the second ball will go.Be sure your shot angle did not shift while pulling the cue back, or readjust it if it did.Click near the cue and pull back to set your cue strength (as shown on the left side) and release.Click on the screen to choose which ball you are aiming the cue at and adjust your shot angle.Select if you want to play against a second player on your computer or a robot.Rotate the camera to aim the cue and knock your balls into the pockets.
