Snooker

Game cover: Snooker

Description

Snooker is a 2-player sports game for the Electron.

Played on a standard table with six pockets, the player controls the cue ball by directing a target arrow that projects from the ball. The length of the target determines the strength of the shoot, and the player can use normal shots, backspin, or topspin. The player are awarded points for potting the colored balls 1–7. When red balls are present on the table, the player must pot a red ball before potting any other ball for points. When all red balls are potted, balls must be potted in ascending order. The player loses a turn if they foul by failing to hit a ball or hitting a ball of the wrong color. Points are awarded to the opposite player in event of a foul.
