Carrom is a board game of Eastern origin with a concept similar to billiards.
It is a very popular game played in India and Pakistan, still played a lot in rural areas and regular tournaments are held. Carrom is an interesting combination of pool and air hockey, but highly accessible as an indoor family game due to its compaction and portability. The game is played on a square, wooden board with four corner pockets and is played by flicking a carrom "striker" disc with one's fingers at the target pieces or carrom "men". The goal is to collect points by sinking your nine pieces, plus the red "queen" piece, in the pockets before your opponent.
