Fewest Shots Pool / How to play

How to play.

One pool table a day, the same for everyone. Clear it in as few shots as you can.

Taking a shot

• Press anywhere on the table and drag back. The cue lines up behind the cue ball, pointing the opposite way to your drag.
• The further you drag, the harder the shot. The power shows under the table.
• The dotted line shows where the cue ball goes, and the blue line shows where the first ball it hits will head.
• Release to shoot. To cancel, drag back towards where you started and let go.

Scoring

• Pot every ball, in any order. Every shot counts as one.
• Pot the cue ball and it's a scratch: that shot costs two, and the cue ball goes back on its spot.
• Each table has a par, a fair target for that layout. Finish under par to beat it.

Each day

• Your first go at the day's table is the one that counts. Once it's cleared, the table locks until tomorrow.
• Post your score to the board to see how it compares, and share your shot card: 🟢 potted something, ⚪ potted nothing, 🔴 scratch.
• A new table arrives at midnight, your local time.
