Break & Run: Pool & Billiards

Real pool physics, no ads, no popups. Play the computer or a friend offline in 8-ball, 9-ball or 10-ball, or play ranked online games against real players.

Break & Run is pool built on real physics, with no ads and no popups. Play 8-ball, 9-ball or 10-ball against the computer or a friend offline, or play ranked 8-ball online against real players.

REAL POOL PHYSICS Balls slide, then roll, the way they do on cloth. Hit high for follow, low for draw, or left or right for side spin: follow and draw bend the cue ball's path after contact, and side spin changes how it comes off a cushion. Cut shots throw the object ball a touch. Every shot plays out exactly the same on every device, which is how ranked games are checked shot by shot.

PLAY OFFLINE, NO ACCOUNT NEEDED • Play vs Computer at five levels, Easy, Medium, Hard, Very hard and Impossible. Hard and up test their shots on the real physics and play position and safeties. • 2 Players, one device: pass the phone between turns. Optional Cheats for friendly games: Cheat Lines that show where every ball will go, moving any ball, and no shot clock. • Every game but ranked play works with no connection.

GAME MODES • 8-ball: solids and stripes, then the 8. • Call pockets: call the pocket on every shot to keep your turn. • Bank the 8: the 8 has to go in off a cushion, banked or kicked; the cushions that count light up green. • Call pockets and Bank the 8 together. • 9-ball: hit the lowest ball first. Pot the 9 on any legal shot, the break included, to win. • 10-ball: hit the lowest ball first and call your pocket every shot. The 10 wins only as the last ball.

STAND AT THE TABLE IN 3D Stand beside the table, get down on the shot and aim along the cue in the 3D view, or switch to the overhead view at any time. The aim line bends with follow, draw and spin. Double tap to get down or stand up, triple tap for overhead, and the view you pick stays from shot to shot.

CUES Your cue sets your power and spin. Everyone starts with the House cue; stronger cues are in the Shop on the main menu, for tokens you earn by playing: when you save your account, and for ranked wins. Want a handicap? Play as a lesser cue. In ranked games the server holds every shot to the cue you brought.

RANKED ONLINE • Play Online as a guest with just a username, or save your account with Sign in with Apple or Google to sign in on any device. • Your rating changes after every ranked game, and with it your rank, the # beside your name; Rankings lists the top 50. • Play Online asks: a live game with a shot clock, or a no-clock game, 3 days a move, with a notification when it's your turn. • No one free for a live game within 10 seconds? You play one of our computer players, always marked Computer, while we keep looking. • Tap your opponent's name, or a name in Rankings, to see their rank, record and streaks, and how you've done against them. • Quick chat: tap your own name to send your opponent a preset message or emoji, never typed text.

FRIENDS AND MESSAGES Add friends by username or from their card, and start a no-clock game with one in a tap. Answer messages from other players on the main menu; every conversation has Block and Report.
