How to Play Carrom Online
The World Wide Web has not established a true online carrom game, but there is one that is close. There is a free version of carrom called Couronne. Developed by MiniClip, the board is the same as a carrom board, but the pieces are green and the striker is yellow. The objective is to sink all of the green pieces to move up in the levels.

Tips & Warnings
If you sink more than 1 green piece in 1 shot, you will be rewarded with an extra turn.
Do not sink the striker. You will be penalized a turn and another green piece will be added to the board.
Do not sink any red pieces. After the first level, a few red pieces will be scattered around the board. If you sink a red piece, you will lose a turn, even if you sank a green piece in the same shot.
