A small practice goal
Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow. Refer to the controls when needed.
Your objective
Clear your nine carrom men after the queen is covered. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Try to explain the aim in your own words.
Work through the instructions
- White starts; set striker aim and power.
- Own-colour pockets earn another shot.
- Cover the queen with an own-colour man in the same or next shot.
- Striker fouls return one own pocketed man if available.
- Finish your colour after a covered queen.
How your actions work
Touch to aim; sliders set power and angle; striker-position controls and Shoot. Use the control method described here for this activity. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
An example before you play
Queen and own man in one legal shot cover immediately. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Consider the next action carefully.
A useful caution
The last own man returns if the queen remains uncovered. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
