How to Play
Click again to close this window >
Start: The balls' default start positions are along the north (left in this landscape view) boundary. Click on a color in this side panel to activate that ball's turn (default is Blue). The active ball is indicated by its color being lit up.
Drag: You can then drag the active ball to any position for Golf or Six Wicket. The inactive balls cannot be dragged until activated.
Strike: If a ball is at the boundary and you want to hit away from that boundary, move that ball onto the lawn before clicking the “Strike” button to activate strike mode (click again to deactivate it). The strike button turns green when active and an arrow with a red tail appears behind the active ball, disabling dragging until a shot is taken or the “Strike” button is deactivated.
Drag the arrow’s red tail to adjust the direction where yhe arrrow points and strength of your strike. The strike strength meter in this side panel shows the strike strength (0–100%) as you pull the arrow. Release the arrow’s tail to strike the ball. This re-enables dragging for the active ball. Drag the ball or tap the “Strike” button again to take another shot.
Score: If an active ball goes through a wicket in either direction, its score will automatically increase, but you can manually adjust the score with the + and – buttons. You can also roquet and croquet other balls, or split shots.
Lawn Speed: Use the slider to adjust the lawn speed simulating different conditions like dry vs. wet (rough vs. smooth).
Undo Last Shot: Use the “Undo Last Shot” button to revert to the previous game state. You can undo up to 5 prior shots or drags.
Reset: The “Reset” button resets the game entirely to its default state.
