pool 🎱

The classic game of pool that we all know and love. Play with strangers, your friends or against a bot.

Objective

Be the first player to pot all of your balls (red or yellow) and then legally pot the black ball.

Rules

Choosing Colours

• The first coloured ball potted after the break decides the player’s colour.
• The opponent is automatically given the other colour.

Turns

• If you pot one of your own balls, you continue your turn.
• If you miss or commit a foul, your turn ends and your opponent plays.

Fouls

A foul is committed if you:

• Hit an opponent’s ball first.
• Pot the white cue ball (scratch).
• Fail to hit any ball.
• Fail to pot a ball.
• Hit the black ball before all of your colour are potted.

After a scratch, the opponent receives ball in hand.

The Black Ball

• You may only attempt to pot the black ball after all 7 of your coloured balls are potted.
• If you pot the black ball early, you lose the game.
• If you pot the black ball followed by the white ball, you lose the game.
• If you pot the black ball legally, you win the game.
