How to Play Side Pocket
Quick start
Choose a game type, line up the cue with the target ball, set spin and power, then take the shot. Plan the cue ball’s next position rather than pocketing the easiest ball immediately. In trick stages, study the required pockets and use cushions or English only when the direct route cannot solve the layout.
Controls
D-pad: aim the cue and move through shot settings. A: confirm aim, power, or take the shot. B: cancel or step back. C: change spin, fine aim, or view according to the current screen. Start pauses. Stop the power meter at the desired strength and apply spin before confirming contact.
