PB/M - How do you play 'Blitz Pool' Game type on mobile?

Modified on Wed, 4 Sep at 11:00 AM


Blitz is a game of our own creation only found in Pool Blitz ™. It is a real-time, no wait multiplayer (essentially it is non-turn-based game) played on two conjoined tables where a ball you pot [sink] on your table appears on your opponent's table and vice versa. When a ball appears from your opponent it does so at first as a ghost ball which becomes a solid ball after your next shot.


Power-balls:


So you can actively affect your opponents table state during play by potting power ups, these balls have icons above them to help you spot them in game.

  • Pocket Blockers. These are the skulls over the pockets if you pot [sink] a ball into a pocket guarded by a skull it is a foul shot.
  • Heavy balls. This turns your active [‘on’] balls to steel
  • Reverse Controls. This reverses any input made left is now right
  • Chemical attack. Removes the aiming 
  • Low Power. Substantially lowers the max power.


Note these only last for one shot duration


points: 


Simple you get one point for each ball potted [sunk] in a game and -1 point for a foul


How do you win?


There are 2 ways to win:


  • By Points - highest score wins
  • Rampage - clearing (potting/sinking) all the balls on your table before your opponent


Why are all my balls yellow or two colours?


As the Blitz Tours increase as does the difficulty. Initially, each player has balls of only one colour but in and after Tour 3 this expands to two the legal ball is shown in the ball indicator


Hitting the ball not shown in the indicator is a foul. When all the first colour set of balls have been potted [sunk] the second set of balls is the legal ball. Again this is shown by the ball indicator.


Note: that you only need hit the legal ball first whatever ball (excluding the cue ball!) that is potted is a legal ball for example if you are ‘on’ the yellow ball and strike a yellow which knocks a blue into the pocket this is still a perfectly legal shot
