How to play

1

Slide the striker along your line to where you want it.

2

Pull back from the striker and let go to flick it.

3

Pot your own coins to win. Pot one and you shoot again.

TipAim the striker at the side of a coin, not straight at it, to send it toward a pocket. A gentle flick is often better than a hard one. Bounce shots off the side reach coins that are hiding behind others.

Carrom is the much-loved flicking board game from South Asia, made gentle for kids and played online with Otter. Pull back the striker like a slingshot, let go, and knock the coins into the corner pockets. A dotted line shows where the striker will go, so even five-year-olds can pot their first coin in a shot or two. Each level adds one new idea: more coins, bounce shots off the side, potting only your own color, a shot limit, taking turns with Otter, the pink Queen worth three, a shorter aim line and finally a full board for the Carrom Cup. Missing never costs anything, and potting the striker just puts it back. Every level wins a new striker style, from stars to ladybirds. After the first game, two children can play each other on one screen. Real carrom boards use white and black coins and a red Queen.
