How to play the game Carroms?

Question

I bought a Carrom board game at Goodwill store,didnt come with instructions.need instuctions!! thanks

Answer 1

It's pretty similar to billiards. As I recall, you set the caroms up in a triangle, then shoot the cueball with the stick, and try to knock one color carom into the pocket. It plays like 8-ball, I think.

Or you could Google it!

Answer 2

The aim of the game is to pot one's own nine carrom men before one's opponent pots his/hers. However, before sinking one's final carrom man, the Queen must be pocketed and then "covered" by pocketing one of one's own carrom men on the same or subsequent stroke. Fouls, such as crossing the diagonal lines on the board with any part of one's body, or potting the striker, lead to carrom men being returned to the board. The back shot is allowed, which is called thumb shots or (thumbing) . The player is allowed to play with any finger.
