Carrom King for Android

Quick overview

Carrom King is a digital take on the classic South Asian tabletop game similar in spirit to pool and billiards. Players use a striker to flick pucks into the corner pockets, aiming to clear pieces of their color and secure the central queen for a decisive win. The mechanics are accessible, making the game suitable for casual players and families.

Objective and board setup

At the start, all 19 pucks are clustered in the center of the board, with the queen placed dead center of the formation. Each player is assigned a color; two sets of pucks correspond to the competing sides, while a single puck represents the queen. Win by pocketing the queen and then pocketing one of your own pieces afterward, or by being the player with the most legal pockets according to the match rules.

Rules and how to win

• Use the striker to hit and pocket pieces of your assigned color.
• Pocketing the queen is a priority: you must follow it up legally with one of your color’s pieces to claim the queen.
• Eliminating most of the opponent’s chips is a valid path to victory, but capturing the queen and covering it secures the round immediately.

Aiming, controls, and scoring

The game offers sensitive aiming controls so that precise flicks are possible with minimal effort. Each time you sink a piece you earn coins or points that accumulate for that round and contribute to your ranking on the scoreboard. Smooth, focused shots and proper positioning are the keys to consistent scoring.
