Introduction

I've written several FAQs over the years and I've had a few layoffs here and there
but I can't believe I haven't written one FAQ for the year of 2015. Mortal Kombat
X I actually started working on but put on hold. Madden NFL '15 I started in 2014
and updated until Feb 2015 but that's the sacrifices one must make when dealing
with motherhood. The potential Ice Queen heir just had her 3rd birthday yesterday
(07/28/2015) and I figured it would be a good time to surface with a new FAQ
called Pure Pool which I also made a review for.
OVERVIEW

The creators of another well known pool game called Hustle Kings are back with
another pool game to entertain you. There are several cue sports games within this
gem that ups the ante on pool competition and minigame challenges such as Perfect
Potter, Royal Rumble, Speed Pot, and Checkpoint. There are several opponents you
can try luck against in US 8-ball and Blackball even though UK rules are used,
9-ball, Killer and the game exclusive Accumulator.

GLOSSARY


Break - When the balls are racked up, the initial shot will break them apart.
Pot - sink your ball into a pocket
Corner Pocket - The four pockets on the corners of the pool table.
Side Pocket - The two side pockets in the middle of the pool table.
Cue Ball - The white ball that you use to hit the others.
Ball in hand - After a foul, the ball can be placed anywhere and shot at. During a
break, this is restricted to within the first diamond.
Foul - An illegal shot. Some result in ball in hand situations, the other result
in automatic loss
Scratch - Potting the cue ball or knocking it off the table.
Spin - Known as applying English. You hit the ball off center and you make it spin
to a side if hit from the side. See Apply Spin for details
Follow - Applying spin at the top of the ball. This makes the cue ball continue
forward upon impact.
Draw - Known in this game as Screw. Hit the bottom of the ball and it will either
roll backwards or it will stop on a dime upon impact.
Plant - Where you play one object ball into another and pot it.
Double - Where you play an object ball off the cushion and pot it.
Bank Shot - Bounce the cue ball off the cushion to hit the target ball. It must be
a certain distance away from the cushion to count. Potting is optional but it is
used mainly for getting out of snookers.
Snooker - There is no way to hit the target ball in a straight line so you must
use a bank shot to hit it.
Open Table - Any ball can be potted except the 8 ball during 8 ball.
MODES

Cues are the different types of cure sticks you earn as you level up.

GAMEPLAY


There are four core games and four minigames to play. The core games are played
during career mode and online mode. Minigames once all are played in career mode
can be accessed during challenge mode.

Core games: 8 ball, 9 ball, Killer, Accumulator, A fifth game called Blackball is
a variation of 8 ball that can be played online.
Minigames: Perfect Potter, Royal Rumble, Speed Pot, Checkpoint

Each game have their own set of rules and fouls. Fouls result in either the
opponent getting possession with ball in hand or automatic loss.

Automatic loss fouls: Potting the 8 ball illegaly in 8 ball, potting the 8 ball
legally but commiting a separate foul, fouling 3 consecutive times in 9 ball. This
doesn't happen in the game but if you somehow knock the 8 ball off the table in
real life, that is an automatic loss foul.

Ball in hand fouls: Scratching (potting the cue ball), knocking the cue ball of
the table, hitting no ball at all, hitting the wrong target ball, potting an
opponent's ball in 8 ball, no ball hitting a cushion on the shot, less than 4
balls hitting a cushion on the break, potting a ball out of turn in Accumulator,
failing to pot a ball in Killer.

8 ball
There seems to be one major difference between US and UK 8 ball rules. That
difference is in America, potting the 8 ball on break without fouling is a win. In
UK, potting an 8 ball on break without fouling results in a re-break and in
addition, any ball or like balls that went in along with the 8 ball is the ball
you must hit on the re-break. If 2 different balls went in aside from the 8 ball
then its counts as the normal rebreak. In Pure Pool, UK rules apply. Your goal is
to sink your balls and then the 8 ball before your opponent does the same. Your
set of balls solids (called spots in this games) or stripes will be the first
matching ball you pot in or opposite of the first ball the opponent pot in. If
multiple balls were potted on open table (can pot any ball but the 8 ball), the
ones you potted the most of will be your set of balls otherwise an even number of
each set of balls potted simultaneously still results in an open table.

Blackball
Same rules as 8 ball except you are playing reds vs yellows with the object to pot
all your red or yellow balls first before potting the black ball.

9 ball
The object of this game is to be the first to pot the 9 ball legally. No matter
how much of the other balls get potted, potting the 9-ball is what wins the game.
You start off by trying to pot the balls in order of the lowest number to the
highest being the 9-ball but if you are fan of using plant shots then this game
can end super quickly as you can knock the legal target into another ball to pot
the latter. This is where those physics come into play. If you are lucky, you can
pot the 9-ball on break and win instantly. Unlike 8 ball, if you pot the 9 ball
illegally, the game will not end. The 9-ball will be put back on the table and a
ball in hand is applied. If the 9 ball is the last ball and ball in hand goes into
effect, you can count it as a loss unless your opponent messes up the shot.

Killer
Each player takes turns trying to pot at least one ball on the shot. Each player
starts with 3 lives. If a foul is comitted or a ball is not potted, that player
loses a life. Lose all your lives and the game is over. Potting the 8 ball gains a
life as well as potting multiple balls. You can even gain 2 lives by potting the 8
ball and another ball in the same shot. One player will break and can earn a life
by potting multiple ball there. However, there are some restrictions. Any fouls
during a life gaining pot will nullify the life gain and result in a life lost.
Once all balls are cleared off the table, whoever was not the player to clear the
table is the one who will break the next set of balls.

Accumulator
Your goal is to pot all the balls in the order from the lowest number to the
highest number and you must hit that ball first and pot only that ball unless
another ball that got hit was the next in value. Some of you may recognize this as
Rotation or 61 on paper. However, there is a major twist. In the normal game of
Rotation, you can play it similar to 9 ball and use plant shots from the target
ball to the other ball. You would normally get points for the value of the potted
plant ball. In Accumulator, the rules have changed. Not only would planting result
in a foul, the value of the ball will be awarded to the opponent which is why I
said pot the target ball and only that ball unless the next ball that falls in was
next in value. Comitting other fouls will result in 1 point for the opponent. As
with Killer, don't scratch when you pot a ball. Not only will the opponent get 1
point but any points you would have gained from potting the target ball would be
nullifed and if the foul was potting another non-next value ball, the value points
will take precedence or the normal pot-scratch foul. The game ends when all balls
are cleared from the table and the winner is the one with the highest accumulated
points. Not sure what happens on a tie.

Challenge: Speed Pot
Pot all the balls on the table in the fastest time possible. There are 15 balls
which you must pot and there is a 5 second penalty for each time you scratch

Challenge: Royal Rumble
Pot all of the balls of the table as quickly as possible. There is a 5 second
penalty for each time you scratch. Every 30 seconds, a new ball falls into play.

Challenge: Checkpoint
Pot as many balls as you can before time runs out. You gain 6 seconds for each
ball you pot. There is no penalty for scratching.

Challenge: Perfect Potter
Pot as many balls as you can in a row without missing a pot. The game ends if you
miss a pot or scratch.
