Croquet Pro

Croquet Pro is a croquet game for two to four players, based on the rules of 9-wicket Croquet with some creative differences, including the court layouts. You take turns hitting your ball through wickets and toward the final peg; the first player to pass through all the wickets and reach the peg wins. Passing through a wicket earns you another stroke.

Courts and progression

The hand-designed courts range from traditional layouts, such as Monk’s Meadow, to asymmetrical courses such as Creepy Castle and Erstwhile Emptiness. Their designs draw on the whimsical and nonsense traditions associated with authors such as Lewis Carroll and Edward Gorey. You unlock new courts by earning stars through play.

Croquet strokes

When you hit another player’s ball, you can make a croquet stroke: place your foot on your ball and hit the other ball, or take an extra stroke. If you choose the extra stroke, you can hit both balls in a billiards-like fashion. After taking the action, hitting the same ball again before your next turn incurs a penalty: your ball returns to the position it occupied at the start of your turn. These special strokes add strategy beyond racing through the wickets.

Game modes

You can play offline against up to four computer opponents or play online against other people. The online multiplayer lobby offers public and private games. The computer opponents play competitively and fairly, providing a challenge for both beginners and experienced players.
