Move the mouse cursor to aim. You can control spin by moving the red circle on the cue ball pictured at the lower left of the screen. The cue will strike wherever you place the circle.
Click on the cue to start your shot. The cue will draw back and your power gauge will rise. The longer the mouse button is held, the more powerful your shot will be.
Release the mouse button to shoot the cue ball.
Game Modes:
- 8 Ball:
One or two players.
Played with all 15 balls and the cue; be the first player to sink all your balls (stripes or solides), then sink the 8 ball to win.
- 9 Ball:
One or two players.
Played with 9 balls and the cue; going in order, sink the balls 1 through 9. The first ball hit by the cue ball on each shot must be the lowest-numbered ball on the table. If you sink the 9 ball, you win.
- Trick Shot Mode:
Create a Shot: Design and share your own custom trick shot.
Create a Shot - Advanced Cue Ball Targets: Same as Create a Shot, but with the added challenge of drawing the cue ball to a specific place on the table after the shot is made.
- Straight Pool:
The shooter may attempt to pocket any ball on the table. The game is won when a player reaches 25 balls pocketed. One point is scored for each ball pocketed where no foul (like a scratch) is made.
- High Score Mode:
One player.
The object is to make as many shots in a row as possible. You are allowed a maximum of 10 misses. Once you've missed 10 shots, the game is over. You may then submit your score to the high score leaderboard by clicking the "Submit Score" button.
