Aim like a pro

The aim guide shows where your piece hits and where the target flies; a red OUT means it leaves the board.

  1. Pull back. The further you pull, the harder the flick.
  2. The ring marks where your piece hits.
  3. The arrow shows where the target flies.
  4. Past the dashed line, it’s out.
Try it on the board above
A red piece pulled back at 94% power. A dotted line runs to a ring where it hits a blue piece, and an arrow carries the blue piece past the dashed line, where a red OUT tag appears. 94% OUT 1 2 3 4
