Your inputs
Touch to aim; sliders set power and angle; striker-position controls and Shoot. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Use one clear input at a time.
Learn from a sample situation
Queen and own man in one legal shot cover immediately. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Consider the next action carefully.
Watch out for this
The last own man returns if the queen remains uncovered. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
