8 Ball Pool The Board Game (2022)

In this highly strategic board game, opposing teams must race to pocket their group of balls first, for a chance to end the game by pocketing the 8 ball for the win. Take advantage of unique movement mechanics such as shot selection, controlled positional play, dead ball extractions, tactical safety play, rebound doubles, combination shots and more. The game gets more and more intense as both players fight to control the board and edge closer to the 8 ball.

The Game starts by dealing out the breaking cards to form the starting layout of the game. Two groups of balls (solid & stripes) along with the White and 8 Balls. Once the first ball is pocketed (directed into 1 of the 6 pockets), that group of balls will be designated to that player for the rest of the game.

The first player to pocket all their balls and then pocket the 8 Ball wins. Winning the game is determined by players shot selection and tactical safety play.

Balls can only move in straight lines, either Vertically, horizontally or diagonally along the board. Much like a queen piece in the game of chess. Always moving the white ball first, players choose which direction to move other balls and in addition have the option to move the white ball in preparation for their next shot. Using the dice, will help to determine how many moves a player possess and how they want to use them.
