The rules, step by step
- Drag anywhere to aim, let go, and the ball drops into the pins.
- Every pin pays chips and lifts the multiplier. Chips × multiplier is the ball’s score.
- Pins you hit vanish once the ball lands, opening lanes for the next.
- Brass pins pay 5 chips. Star pins DOUBLE the multiplier, so leave them till last.
- The ringed violet pin brings every vanished pin back, mid-flight.
- One pin burns each ball — the comet. Hit it for +4 multiplier.
- The bucket slides along the bottom. Land in it and you get that ball back.
- Head-to-head is a duel: you alternate shots and watch each other’s ball. 30 seconds a shot, or it fires itself.
- Three or more fire at will, against the round clock — at zero, any balls you have left are gone.
- Beat the round’s par for a crown, take one of three charms, and go again. Most points wins.
