How to Play Four-Ball Billiards
- Drag anywhere on the table to pull the cue back — the dashed guide line shows where your first contact will be.
- The farther you pull, the more power. Release to shoot. (Keyboard: arrow keys to aim, hold Space and release.)
- Hit BOTH red balls in one shot to score. Touching the yellow ball is a foul — that attempt scores nothing.
- You get 10 attempts and the balls stay where they stop between shots. Each success is worth 100 points (plus a cushion bonus).
About Four-Ball Billiards
Four-Ball Billiards is a free online carom billiards game played like the real thing: you get 10 attempts, and every shot must strike BOTH red balls without touching the yellow. Drag to pull the cue back — the farther you pull, the harder the shot — then release and watch the physics play out.
The yellow ball is your enemy: touch it with your cue ball and the shot is a foul — no points, one attempt gone. Balls stay exactly where they stop between shots, just like on a real carom table, so every shot sets up the next one. Use the cushions to curve around trouble and leave yourself a good position.
Every successful shot scores 100 points, with a bonus for cushion play, and your best total goes on the global leaderboard when you sign in. Real 2D physics, an aiming guide, and one-finger controls — runs instantly in any browser, no download, completely free.
Tips & Strategy
- The dashed guide shows only your FIRST contact — after that, the physics take over. Aim so the cue ball carries on toward the second red.
- When the yellow ball blocks the direct line, bank off a cushion. The bounce is nearly true, and you'll pocket the cushion bonus too.
Frequently Asked Questions
What counts as a successful shot in Four-Ball Billiards?
Your cue ball must touch both red balls in a single shot, in any order, using as many cushions as you like. If it stops after touching only one red — or none — that attempt simply scores nothing; the balls stay where they are for your next shot.
What is a foul?
Touching the yellow ball with your cue ball at any point during a shot is a foul: the shot scores nothing even if you also hit both reds, and one attempt is used. Plan your line around it.
How do I score more points per shot?
Every successful shot is worth 100 points. If your cue ball touches at least one cushion during a successful shot, you earn a cushion bonus on top — so elegant bank shots outscore straight pokes.
