Players lose a life every time they fail to pocket a ball (with two lost if the cue ball is pocketed and three if the wrong ball is hit first), but gain some for both clearing racks and pocketing a ball in special marked pockets. Players are scored based on pocketing balls, with bonus points for clearing the table, pocketing balls in sequence, pocketing balls in special highlighted pockets, how many shots it took, and how fast it was cleared.Survivor - Using the 8-Ball layout that re-racks after the table is empty, up to eight players try to be the last player standing. Each player starts with three "lives" and take turns attempting to pot any ball, losing one of their lives if they fail to do so or pot the cue ball. Those who break has an extra shot if they fail to pot a ball from it.Trickshot - A single-player open sandbox game where players can freely position balls anywhere for practicing and making trick shots.Speed Pool - A single-player game where, using a 9-Ball layout, players are timed in clearing the rack in any order.Arcade SnookerSnookerSpeed SnookerTrick Snooker
