The Hustler (Japan, program code M)
Game Details
Description
Rack 'Em Up is a pool game. Two games types are on offer with them being either the game of Nine Ball or the game of Rotation.
Players start either game type with two cue balls and three shots. Failing to pocket a pool ball within three shots or pocketing the cue ball (scratching) will cost the player a cue ball. Having zero cue balls left will end the game. The game is won when all the pool balls are pocketed and cleared from the pool table.
The game playfield screen itself is broken into two views. The left side shows a top down view of the entire pool table and the position of the pool balls. The right side shows the shot view which is a behind the cue stick view of where the player lines up their shot. Once a player lines up their shot, they select a spot on the cue ball they want to hit, and then select the amount of power they want to put into their shot.
