After 8 Ball, this is my 2nd favorite among all the pool games. The physics are good and the English is spot on. I've yet to witness any hacking or cheating. Overall, a good release. The Cons: not enough diversity such as special events. The ladst update to the game was ages ago, which makes me believe Uken has chosen not to develop it further. My in game friends tell me that the game has been around for nearly 10 years which may explain it. If that doesn't bother you, this is a solid offering.

Pretty good game. Much more enjoyable than Miniclip's "8 Ball Pool" as the table physics are much more realistic, though there often seems to be a problem with the banks in the pockets. They always seem to bounce the ball out, regardless of the direction of travel and their position. Matchmaking algorithm also needs work. Bad. I just started playing within a week ago, I shouldn't be matched against high level rank 1s.

Graphics are good & has cool effects like balls catching on fire. Has a global chat, Having a chat is a plus. Physics are very far off. Putting draw on the ball with low speed will cause the cue to fly to other end of table after contact. I play in tournaments and in amatuer pool leagues. The amount of draw is dependent on initial speed, force and distance. Also has rules in effect that are completely made up and not found in any rule set, amatuer or pro. AR mode never worked for me.
