A practical guide to Air Hockey
Start Air Hockey by looking at the playing area and its controls. Score seven goals before the computer. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Check the rule that explains your first action. Look at what changes after your first action.
Move your paddle against a computer opponent and score through the opposite goal.
Try a more deliberate round
Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Make the next step deliberately.
The goal to keep in mind
Score seven goals before the computer. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.
How to proceed
