Objective: Obtain the greatest amount of points by the end of the game.

At the start of a turn, the player must shoot at and make contact with a red ball first.  On each shot, the player must pocket the contacted object ball in order to keep shooting.  At each successive shot in a players turn, he/she must alternate between shooting at red balls and shooting at the colored balls (balls that are not red).  Each ball has a certain point value, as follows:

Red - 1
Yellow - 2
Green - 3
Brown - 4
Blue - 5
Pink - 6
Black - 7

Legally pocketed balls are scored in the player's favor; fouls incur a penalty of 4 points or greater.  Colored balls are spotted after they are pocketed, but red balls always remain pocketed.  At the end of a game, the two players' scores are compared, and the player with the highest score is declared the winner.
