This is definitely one of the best pool games I've played in a long time. I really like the controls and it's designed so anyone could play it. Back in the day, I was totally hooked on the Nintendo game Lunar Pool and this game makes me just as happy as when I would play that. Can't wait to see what updates come in the future!

Feels bad to control. The swipe up for power doesn't seem consistent at all. And the line that comes off the ball you're about to hit is completely, absolutely, 100% fake. The ball you hit goes in a completely random direction. Cool concept, horrible execution.

The ball physics is horrible.......there isn't any and that ruins the game because the balls don't react the same........corner shots or any tight angle shot will fail because the cue ball stops dead or will not even budge a ball when shooting........reminds me of old flash games kind of scripted physics where your shot is more like a game of chance

The game is fun. I really like the premise and playing the high stakes mode. I'm giving it two stars because the sheer amount of ad spam. I fully understand that the ads help the devs. The ads pop up every game to every other game. today I had 3 ads in the space of 2 games. I am willing to watch ads to help the dev, but it's at the point where I'm not having fun because I get at least 1 ad for every game I play.

Let down by imprecise draw and hit gesture of the cue and the awful aiming. I have to proper feedback about how much power I am about to put on my shots and when aiming it isn't fluid enough as it jutters as it snaps to specific angles. I would have played this for longer if it wasn't so frustrating to play.

Pretty fun 2D pool game. Im not a huge pool guy irl so i like the fact that its sort of "Dumbed down" which makes it easy to get past the learning curve. There's definitely some technique when sinking those bad bois in the correct pockets in order to boost your tallied score at the end. That makes it pretty entertaining. The graphics are smooth with a clean UI. However i will mention some times the projectory guidelines are kinda wonky which will jump a milometer. But i work around it. Good game

After fixing the problem of the game crashing my phone I can happily say this is one of the most addictive games I've ever played on a mobile. Great to play if you have a spare 5 minutes but it also has that "One more go" gameplay that I have easily lost an hour or 2 too.

Game should be fun, but the means of controlling the cue is shockingly bad. (You boys should take a leaf out of the Miniclip 8-ball book!) Also, no way to put spin on the cue ball. I would have bought the ad-removal package, but the game experience is ruined by the insanely bad cue control.

Edit: the ads just became too violent. The game says that the ad appears after every 3 games, but it appears more often than that. Also the banner ad is ever present (which wasn't there at the beginning), and now I am often greeted with an ad when I start the app. Most of the ads are 15+ seconds and can't be sped up. I know you need to make a living but, come on!

Just don't bother installing. The concept is fine. The aiming is atrocious. You spend more time trying to line up a shot than anytning else. You try and line a shop up and the shot line just glitches past the ball, there's no accuracy to it whatsoever it just does what it likes. There are far better pool games out there. Find one.

This is a really addictive arcade pool game. Personally had no problems with the controls after a bit of practice, but infuriatingly every now and then the white ball stops before your ball drops and it counts as a lost life. Ha this wouldn't bother me if I wasn't obsessed with finally getting a perfect run.

I've been playing this game for a while, and this comment is how I genuinely feel about the game. The controls are subpar, fine-tuning your aim is incredibly difficult to do because rather than a small gesture sliding the aim smoothly, the aim line just jumps abruptly (imagine a normal bike and a bike with pentagons wheels). But aside from controls, everything else is good, I like the aesthetics, I even watch the ads because I want to support the devs. Will update review if fixed!

easily the best pool game ive found. its got great addicting gameplay thats easy to jump into at any time, a clean design, and best of all no slimy mobile game tactics! id rlly appreciate a classic 1v1 pool game mode (with ai opponents i mean, but local/online multiplayer would be great too), an undo button, more flexibility with control schemes - sensitivity options, different layouts, etc - and also for the game to not pause spotify upon entry, but as it is this is already pretty great!

It's okay. Feels like playing pool on carpet sometimes though because there's no consistency in the power of your shot so if it's weak, that ball will stop immediately with no natural roll. You either don't make it or whack way too hard trying to combat the carpet-like table problem. Great scoring concept, I love the idea but the mechanics are just poor.

I really wish I had more control over my shot power. Swiping to control it is incredibly vague, and there's games ruined by shots where you think it's going be soft, and it blasts your target (and vice versa). Not being able to reposition the cue after a scratch can lead to multiple misses in a row thanks to poor placement.

Okay, from the get-go, it doesn't accept my finger so well. I have a couple examples, from the beginning. One is, when it tells me to flick, the pool stick only moved up and down, and didn't allow it to hit (oxcept for constantly tapping). The second thing is, when I'm trying to aim the stick to the ball, it goes so stiff. It's so hard for me to aim it right, I can't make it precisely. It makes the ball move in a direction that I don't want. Maybe it's my phone: Motorola Edge Plus 5G UW (2022).

Love this game but I think there is a serious flaw. It is nearly impossible to win the time limit bets. The clock should only count the time it takes the player to line up the shot. Sometimes after shooting it takes 10-20 seconds for the balls to stop completely and reset for the next shot. Turning down all timer bets costs a lot over time and is just not fun. Please change so only the lineup of each shot counts towards the time. Even lower time limits would be fine like that.
