Focus on one rule
Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow. Make the next step deliberately.
Your goal
Reach 1,500 points before three balls drain. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.
Step by step
- Start to launch.
- Use the two flippers.
- Bumper collisions score.
- Launch remaining balls after a drain.
Controls
Hold Left/Right flipper or arrow keys. Start / pause and New round are available. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Contact us with the game and device if a control does not respond.
A useful example
Activate the flipper when the ball reaches its active surface. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Look for the relevant detail.
Watch out for this
A drained ball cannot be rescued. Check the rule before repeating the action. When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round.
