SNOOKER 147: The Ultimate Snooker Strategy Game

Where Snooker Meets Strategy

SNOOKER 147 fuses authentic red ball and color ball sequences with strategic investment, tactical movement, and direct player interaction. Experience the intense competition of snooker alongside the challenge of securing tournament rights, expanding table capacity, and collecting Tournament Fees.

The Heartbeat of Snooker, Reimagined

SNOOKER 147 doesn't just borrow the snooker theme. It captures the spirit of the game.

From planning break building strategies to securing tournament rights, expanding table capacity, and navigating fouls, every mechanic brings the strategy and excitement of snooker to the tabletop. It offers familiar gameplay for dedicated snooker fans and a fresh strategic challenge for board game enthusiasts.

A New Table Every Time

Every setup creates a brand new table, ensuring no two frames ever play the same.

With 40 Inserting Fiches, players can vary the positions of Reds, Colors, Free Balls, and Snooker Halls before every game. Each new layout calls for fresh decisions and adaptable tactics.

Easy to Learn, Deep to Master

The game is easy to learn, allowing players to get started within minutes, while positional tactics, financial decisions, and risk management offer plenty of strategic depth for experienced players.

With a balance of accessible rules and thoughtful decision making, SNOOKER 147 brings players of different experience levels together for engaging matches filled with tactical choices and friendly competition.

Championship Luxury, Straight Out of the Box

Every component is designed to bring the atmosphere of a snooker venue to your game night. Inside the box, you’ll find a Deluxe Modular Board, 40 Inserting Fiches, 205 Point Cards, and 36 Tactical Event Cards.

The set also includes 2 Standard Dice, 3 147 Dice, 4 Player Pawns, 16 Trays, a Table Expansion Cube Set, and an Integrated Storage Organizer Box.

Every component has its place, helping you set up the table, track your progress, expand table capacity, and keep the game organized.

How To Play Snooker?

Build Your Break: High Stakes Sequence Play

Build your break, keep scoring, and see how far you can go. Pot a red ball to score points and remove its tile from the board, then choose a color ball before returning to the red ball sequence. Every successful shot extends your break and increases your score.

But one missed shot or foul can end your turn, giving your rivals the chance to take control of the table.

Keep the rhythm. Keep scoring. How long can you stay at the table?

Bid for the Rights: Seize the Opportunity

Not every opportunity comes with a fixed price. Sometimes, you have to fight for it. When a player passes on the opportunity to acquire tournament rights at an available Snooker Hall, or cannot acquire them because they already hold the maximum number of rights, an auction gives the other players a chance to claim them.

Will you bid higher to secure valuable tournament rights, or step aside and save your Credits for another opportunity? Read the table, judge the moment, and know when to make your move.

Chase the 147 Jackpot

Land on the legendary 147 Spot and put everything on the roll. Roll all three 147 dice and see if you can hit the jackpot. If all three dice show the 147 symbol, you score a massive 40 Credits from the Bank.

Three dice. One perfect roll. 40 Credits on the line. Will you hit 147?

The People Behind SNOOKER 147

Why Kickstarter?

SNOOKER 147 began with a simple idea: to bring the strategy, tension, and rhythm of snooker to the tabletop.

After years of development and refinement, the game is now ready to reach a wider audience. We chose Kickstarter because we believe the best way to introduce an independent game is to share it directly with the people who are most passionate about discovering new tabletop experiences.

Kickstarter gives us the opportunity to introduce SNOOKER 147 to a community of players, gather their support and feedback, and build the game together from the very beginning.

For Jean, this campaign also represents an important personal milestone. A game that began with his love of snooker is now ready to leave his table and find its place on tables around the world.

This is where SNOOKER 147 begins its next chapter. And we'd love for you to be part of it.

Shipping & Taxes

We will be using PledgeBox as our pledge manager to oversee backer pledges, survey details, and handle fulfillment logistics through our Asian fulfillment hubs after the campaign concludes.

As we approach the shipping date, you will receive an email from PledgeBox to confirm your pledge and add any extra items you would like. Through the PledgeBox survey link, you will be able to:

• Confirm your pledge details
• Pay for shipping costs
• Add extra add-ons and items

Due to current fluctuations in global freight rates, shipping fees will be collected via PledgeBox closer to our actual dispatch date. Shipping costs will be calculated based on the total package weight and actual shipping expenses incurred at that time. This approach allows us to provide you with the most accurate, up-to-date pricing and pass any potential savings directly back to you.

Based on our preliminary estimates, the current estimated shipping rates are as follows:

• US, UK, EU, CA, AU & NZ: $15 – $25 USD
• Asia: $10 – $15 USD
• Rest of the World: $20 – $25 USD

Due to the unpredictable nature of customs duties, Board Vanguard reserves the right to charge additional customs fees on a case-by-case basis. However, please rest assured that according to our initial calculations, even if customs duties increase, it is expected to result in only a minor addition of a few dollars per copy.

Import taxes or VAT (where applicable) are determined by your country's regulations and are the responsibility of the backer. Customs policies vary by country, so if you are unsure, we recommend consulting your local customs office before placing your pledge.
