Cuing games are fun turn-based multi-player games for two players. The board is populated with balls in random locations which means every Cuing match you play is unique!
Welcome to the tutorial page to help get you flying!
Two balls are ‘in-view’ when both balls can travel between each other along a straight line which passes through the center of each ball.

Determining which balls are in-view is easy, just single tap any ball and the aimers will show you which balls on the board are in-view with the ball you tapped!
Sometimes to help decide your next move, you may wish to remove a ball from the board. Super simple, just double tap any ball on the board to ‘ghost’ it, then double tap the ball again to ‘unghost’ it!
In the game Cuing ‘Divergent’ each player has two cue balls on opposite corners of the board while the remainder of the board is filled with object balls. Players alternate making moves by dragging the curser from a cue ball to an in-view object ball. During a successful move the cue ball moves to occupy the location of the object ball while the object ball explodes.
You win the game when one of your cue balls is in-view with both of your opponents cue balls. In classical game theory, this tactic is called a fork.
There are many ways to achieve victory, but the most important is to avoid defeat. The threat of a fork is ever present so be cautious when making moves. As a defensive approach leave one of your cue balls nicely protected in a corner while your other cue ball attempts to win the game. Generally you are safer when your cue balls are further apart. When few object balls remain, anticipating your opponents next move becomes vital.
Divergent may be the most challenging of the Cuing games so put on your thinking cap for a terrific time, tested and true experience!
