Looking for RoundRack owners
- Thread starter Mulambo
- Start date
The company that made the game, Ballbuster, Inc., seems to have been in business from 2004 to 2012. They were located in Farmingville, NY.
You can see their website on archive.org under the name roundrack.com. The earlier versions of the website show some of the rules. The later versions send the rules with the product.
They seem to have had at least 16 different games.
The two joined rings of the rack only hold 14 balls so for full-rack games you just put the 15th near the rack.
So far as I can tell, the main feature is that every rack is different. The balls are free to rotate within the rings, so sometimes there will be a dead ball and sometimes not. They suggest placing the rack in a random spot on the table.

Thanks! That's what I found out so far as well. And the cue ball starts from the Center Spot, instead of the Kitchen.
I am trying to get a hold of the rules, or reconstruct them as good as possible. But I struggle with a few of them, as some only provide 1 small sentence as explanation of how the game works...

Did you see the table of rules from the old, archived website on archive.org ? I only saw it in the earlier (2006?) versions of the website.
Yes, I went through the whole history of all snapshots there. And I collected 20 different game rules. For some of them I found a ball setup, or a description. So I could reconstruct them quite easily.
But on some I struggle, hence I was asking for help here. Maybe someone bought a Rack out of curiosity and my be able to help me
