Carooka társasjáték

Angol leírás

Carrom is a traditional game from India; a smooth square wooden board, where players flick counters to slide them into pockets.
The story goes that when the Brits colonised India, they “discovered” Carrom and absorbed elements of it into the game of Billiards. This eventually led to the invention of Snooker.

Carrooka is the step of this evolution that never happened! Using counters, like Carrom but with rules similar to Snooker; the turning point for Carrooka came, quite literally, by making it turn.

Set the board up by placing all the red counters in the inner triangle and place the colours on their own spots. Place the heavier white striker counter on to the break line and use your finger to flick the striker into the pack of reds. If you slide a red into a pocket, you score a point and continue your turn by aiming at a more valuable colour:- you spin the board to wherever you want it to be in between shots.

The game ends when the black is potted or earlier if one player has such a point lead that their opponent cannot possibly catch up. The winner has the most points at the end of the game.
