Beat The 8 Ball

Wait for it… wait for it… GO!

Beat The 8 Ball is a game of timing, nerve and watching a spinning ball just a little too closely. Send the black 8 ball circling around the funnel, then decide when to release your own coloured ball down its ramp. Your goal is to reach the scoring chute just before the 8 ball does.

Go too early and you may miss the best scoring position. Wait too long and the 8 ball can beat you to it, costing you points. Everyone watches the same funnel, but each player chooses their own moment to launch.

It’s a lively choice for families who enjoy hands-on games and that little burst of suspense before everyone reacts. The playing platform has four launching ramps and a scoring chute, and includes the black 8 ball and four coloured balls. Set it up, choose your colour and see who has the best timing.
