A pool game on a green table with fifteen numbered balls. You can play against the clock on your own or take turns with a friend on the same device. A dotted aiming line helps you line up each shot.
How to play
In Player vs Timer, you try to pot all the balls before the timer runs out. It starts at 30:00. Potting the white cue ball gives you a foul point, and three fouls ends the game. The black 8 ball must be the last ball you pot.
To take a shot, drag to aim the cue. A dotted line shows where the white ball will travel, and a ring marks where it will hit. The bar of stripes on the left side of the screen fills up to show how hard you are hitting. Potted balls appear in the row of slots at the top of the screen.
Controls
- Drag: aim and hit the cue ball
- Pause button (top centre): pause the game
Tips
- Follow the dotted line and the ring to see exactly where the white ball will make contact before you shoot.
- Leave the 8 ball until last. The rules say it must be the final ball potted.
- Watch the power bar on the left. Softer shots make it less likely the white ball rolls into a pocket.
- You only get three fouls, so avoid risky shots that send the white ball near a pocket.
Who it's for
Suits older children and families who want a calm, simple pool game, either alone against the clock or with a friend. The aiming guide makes it easy to start, but potting every ball cleanly takes practice.
