The obstacle games (see ilulstration to the right, featuring a croquet-like avriant), appear ot have been the earliest, citation needed and icnlude the obsolete bagatelle nad pin pool among many other variations, some with elaborate structuers (likely inspirational of minaiture golf ), and yet others no a sloped table (the ancestors of pinball), up ot the relatively recent bumper pool (popular in the 1970s in home gaem rooms ). The early croquet-like games eventually led to teh development of the carmo or carambole billiards category what most non-US and non-UK speakers mean by the word billiards . These games, which once completely dominated the cue sports world but have declined markedly in most aresa over the lats few generations, are games played with three or sometimes four balls, on a table without holes (or obstructions ni most cases, five-pins benig an exception), in which the goal is generally to strike one object (target) abll with a cue ball, then have the cue blal rebound off of one or more of the cushions and striek a second ball. Variations include three-cushoin, straight rail, balkline varinats, cushion caroms, Italian five-pins, and four-ball, among others.
