The steps to play
- Start to launch.
- Use the two flippers.
- Bumper collisions score.
- Launch remaining balls after a drain.
Getting comfortable with the controls
Hold Left/Right flipper or arrow keys. Start / pause and New round are available. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Check any mode label before starting.
An example to follow
Activate the flipper when the ball reaches its active surface. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Take a moment to compare.

A drained ball cannot be rescued. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
