How to proceed

Getting comfortable with the controls
Hold Left/Right flipper or arrow keys. Start / pause and New round are available. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
An example to follow
Activate the flipper when the ball reaches its active surface. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Notice the change in the playing area.
Keep this in mind
A drained ball cannot be rescued. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
