### **Objective**

Score as high as possible in a given time duration

### **Gameplay**

* Touch & Drag the cue to aim
* Drag the bar to select the power to shoot
* Use the spin ball to apply spin to the cue ball

### Scoring

* Each ball and pocket has unique numbers
* The number on the ball and pocket value determines the score points
* Every time you pocket the ball, the pocket value will rotate to the next pocket clockwise.
* Score points = Ball Number x Pocket Value

{% hint style="info" %}
*When you pocket the ball number 5 into the pocket value of 10, your score points will be 50 points*
{% endhint %}

### **Streak Bonus**

* When you pocket the ball, you will activate a streak bonus of 2x. When you pocket the ball successfully in the next shot, your score points will be multiplied by a streak bonus.
* Your streak will continue to grow to higher multipliers as you keep scoring the ball subsequently
* If you miss pocketing the ball or you pocket the cue ball, your streak bonus will be reset to 1x

{% hint style="info" %}
*When your streak bonus is at 5x, you pocket the ball number 6 into pocket value x10. Score points will be calculated as Ball number (6) x pocket value (10) x streak multiplier (5) = 6 x 10 x 5 = 300*
{% endhint %}

### **Trick Shots**

* When you pocket the ball using another ball, it is a Trick Shot
* You will get +300 points for every trick shot performed in the round

### **Round Timer & Lives**

* Every player will have 4 minutes and 5 lives in each round
* The round will end if you either lose all 5 lives or run out of the timer
* If you pocket all balls with time in hand, you will get a time bonus. The time bonus will be calculated as the total time left in the second x 3

💡 When you complete the round with the 60s left on the timer, you will receive 60 x 3 = 180 points as a time bonus
