    description
    A **cue game** is a coin-operated table on which the player drives the ball with a hand-held cue, in the manner of pool or billiards, rather than launching it with a plunger. The form runs from carom and golf novelties of the early 1930s such as [[manufacturer:karom-golf-table-corporation]]'s *[[title:karom-golf]]* (1931), on which "Real golf balls are used",[1] through the electric pool tables the pinball makers built in the mid-1950s, opened by [[manufacturer:chicago-coin]]'s *[[title:automatic-pool]]* (1955), "the first electric pool game in the industry",[2] to [[manufacturer:us-billiards-inc]]'s *[[title:electro-pool]]* (1966), "A pool table with a pinball-style backbox".[3]
