The Core Objective The goal is to pocket all of your assigned balls (either solids or stripes) and then legally sink the 8-ball (the black ball) to win the match.3 If you sink the 8-ball before clearing your other balls, or if you sink it in the wrong pocket at the end, you lose.42.

How to Use the App Once you download the app (iOS, Android, or Web), here is how to navigate and play: Getting Started Login: You can play as a Guest, but it’s better to link your Facebook or Miniclip ID so you can save your progress and challenge friends.5The Lobby:

Key Rules to Remember The Break: One player hits the racked balls first.11 If you pocket a ball on the break, the table is still “open” until someone pockets a specific ball (solid or stripe) on a subsequent shot.12Ball-in-Hand:

If your opponent “scratches” (sinks the white cue ball) or commits a foul, you get to pick up the white ball and place it anywhere on the table.13The 8-Ball: After clearing your group, you must “call” the pocket where you intend to sink the black 8-ball.144.
