Black Hole társasjáték

Angol leírás

Flicking game on a revolving wooden board with some similarities to Carrom and Crokinole. The game was created by the owner of Maison du Billard in France, Philipe Rogé, and won the Concours Lepine Gold Medal in 2009.

HOW TO PLAY:

Each player has 4 coloured discs that are positioned on the circles marked on the playing surface. The player who starts is drawn at random, and play goes clockwise.

Direct or indirect shots are allowed.

When a player shoots an opposing disc into the black hole in the middle of the board, he can play again. If his disc enters the hole at the same time as an opposing pawn, he passes the turn to the next player.

PENALTIES:

1) If a player shoots one of his discs out of the playing field, it will be lost and taken out of play. If it is an opposing disc, it will be placed on the circle closest to where it went off the board.

2) If a player by mistake plays (touches or shoots with) an opposing disc, his disc furthest from the hole will be taken out of play.

POSSIBLE GAME ENDINGS:

The last player who has one or more discs left on the playing surface is the winner. If there is only one disc left for each of the last two players and one of them pockets both of them at the same time, the game is drawn and must be replayed. There are no winners or losers.

As soon as a player no longer has a disc on the playing surface, the game is over, and the 1 point per disc is scored for the other players. The first player who reaches 5 points wins the game. It takes 2 points difference to determine the winner.
