Shooting Ball

It's a fun game I like for stress relief. My second most played game, lately. There are helps that show what direction your object ball will head but it's still challenging. One problem, there's an ad panel at the bottom of the screen directly under the panel you use to aim your shot. I couldn't help but touch that thing once in a while but after two years practice I'm much less likely to now. I've been searching for a pool game that you can play at table level. No luck yet.

Played the game up until about the 750th level. When I clicked on the green arrow to begin a new game, the advertisement that always pop up before game play, had NO little "x" or "close" button to get rid of it and play the game. I even attempted to hit the back button on my phone and the ad just sat there stuck. So there's a bug or glitch with one of your ads. Fix it, or I delete the game. Edit: just deleted this game, because of the agressive and lingering Lending Tree ad. No x to get rid of!

I love this game, it has the best controls and most realistic play of any pool game I've tried, BUT if you want to make this game great here is his how you do it. First, get rid of the crazy shaped tables, start the game with a rack of balls to break, get rid of the stupid hand that takes away a ball (I want to be challenged!) and last, but not least, make it so we can save progress when we get a new device!!

Game is fairly easy to play definitely gets challenging the farther you go the shots are pretty accurate they could be a little better but they're not as bad as 99% of other pool games out there I definitely recommend it. I would also recommend making it easier and faster to get better pool sticks it takes way too long

Zero stars!!! Game does Not come as advertised! No girl advitars. I have done some of the tables within the amount of shots wanted, but if you don't get the balls in the pocket or order that the game wants ( without indication!) it will not give you the full crown. If you want certain game play, it needs to be indicated! Also I have noticed that certain shots that the game wants, can not be done without being able to put a spin on the cue ball!

Great ball physics! Extremely playable and lifelike. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is there doesn't seem to be a way to put any sort of spin on the cue ball forcing center ball shooting, which, while eminently playable, doesn't allow for more advanced position play. If there is a way to put spin on then it isn't obvious enough.

Not realistic at all. You're shooting pool with terrible graphics and I've never shot pool from a bird's-eye view. I usually shoot with both my feet on the floor. And not looking over the top of the pool table. And the balls especially the cue ball change to roll then stop roll then stop... I don't recommend it obviously with only giving one star review.

Just passed level 4,000 😮 and I'm still entertained. Sure the ads are numerous and sometimes lengthy but not as bad as other games I play. The starting ball layouts get interesting and more challenging as you progress which keeps the game interesting for me. I dont advance to the next table until I'm 3 stars or All Combo (personal goal) Wish I could attach a photo showing the start of table 4,001.

Very engaging and interesting. The only problem I find is the sensitivity of the side que. I can't move/ position the que stick without accidentally and unintentionally engaging the "shoot" stick. There should be some type of lock/unlock mechanism or double click. Sure that would be time consuming by maybe one second, but that's better than having numerous unintentional shoots.

It's good for a short time, and okay for a little longer, but it's mostly pointless. You just keep shooting balls, and earning new cues that don't seem to do anything different than the ones before. There's no progression or goals, just mindlessly attempting to pocket balls in tables that range from reasonable to ridiculous. It's very easy to grow bored of, and I'm uninstalling it now.

I don't remember well the ad I saw that prompted me to download this game, but I think the ad was a bit deceiving in the display of ball control. But, it's a good idle game app. It's not purchase driven and not multi-player. Just you shooting pool as you please. There is a means of applying "English" to your shots. On the lower left is an image of your cue ball. Before selecting the cue icon to determine the strength of your strike, select the cue ball to determine the "English".

It does indeed get mindless, no real goals or anything. Just the same mind numbing thing over and over and over. Worst of all is you cannot listen to radio, music, audiobooks, anything, as it will override everything. Even if you turn the game sounds off, it still overrides everything sound wise. This is not cool. When I get to the top level I'm uninstalling it.

Not a real fan of the pool stick, the skull, snake, I would ever choose. Maybe yall could get a queens crown,a rose ,or butterfly. I'm not out to kill just wanted have fun. I really like how it Gives you more than enough time to make your play there's no time limit And one of the things I like the most is with every game that you successfully replay the city itself that has the levels in it is virtually beautiful, looks pretty fun and exciting 👍🏽😍really like the visual graphics of it all.

Highly addictive for any pool table games. This one has been fav for years. The cue ball can be choked, twisted, stretched by just that action. Which is controlled by your finger playing on your chosen cue stick. The multiple ads are rolled out stretched across bottom of screen. Simple games but I was having so much fun,, I really hadn't notice but there might have been an ad here or there

Very fun & a great time killer! Few ads versus most games. (Most ads 5sec w/ intermittent 30sec unskippable.) Tables get more challenging & some high level tables are INSANE with curved rails & weird pockets locations. But you get to try shots you'd never think of IRL. Beautiful & imaginative cues cycle at X points / rounds. Edit (6/1/24): more 30sec ads at high levels (over LVL 1000) & takes 3x more points for upgraded cues at these levels. But the game remains very fun.

Good game, it's fun, but ... Please move the cue stick to the top of the screen, away from the side of the table. Because of where it's located, it's too easy to accidently draw it back and shoot when trying to line up your shot. Make the English control actually work for something besides top and bottom English. Side English doesn't really do anything. Fix those things and I'd give this game five stars.

Edit to my original review... This game used to be fun to play but since they've updated it, it's not the same. The game play is completely different. It's no longer a challenge to make the shots. AND after each round, you have to watch an ad ! That's not cool. Before I could just play and play and play with very very minimal ads. Now you watch one every minute. It's ridiculous!! I'm uninstalling and looking for another pool app to play. Don't waste your time downloading this. Not worth it.
