Virtual Pool 12+

Hands down the best 3D pool game around. Celeris did an incredible job on this game. Only advice I would give is to practice your shot control with cue ball. If you just aim and shoot you will probably be scratching a lot. Many negative reviews state that this is why they don’t play. Even in real pool this ability to control your cue ball after the initial strike is what separates beginners from seasoned players. I’ve gotten much better at this game and rarely scratch as a result of practicing cue ball control. They have made a great game that in my opinion is far more realistic than any other. If you like pool and want an app to be as close to the real thing as possible then you need to download this game. It’s awesome!!!

First off, it’s a beautiful game. The developers genuinely did a great job at making this game. It’s very realistic and the physics accounts for things like cue ball deflection, cut/spin induced throw of the object ball, accurate mechanics when hitting the rails, etc.
Here’s some improvement ideas.
-Online mode. No reason why there can’t be an online mode. You could easily make a lot of money on micro-transactions for skins and better performing cues and whatnot.
-Needs better AI. Especially with how good the average person can be with ball tracking mode (I’m on level 3000 almost on there), the AI just has no chance to beat you, no matter how hard the difficulty is. There should be a Ronnie O’Sullivan level-good AI for the snooker mode especially. The highest break the AI can get is around 50, and I average about 75 per break. The cushion games could also use an improvement in the AI.
-There are some games that you can’t play against the AI. I’m not exactly sure why, but I feel like I shouldn’t have to play against myself to play a game.

It’s a fun game. Live the cue mechanism. If you played other games in this series, you know what I mean. The power of the shot depends on how far you drag the pool back and forward. Much better than those games where you tap on a slider to determine the power of the shot. I took one star away because I’ve never, in all my years of playing pool seen the white ball end up in the pocket so often. Seems like pockets are black holes for the cue ball. The tables also seem too fast. The white rolls on forever. Wish I could slow down the tables. Happens on all difficulty levels. I’m currently playing straight pool on Hard. Still a lot of fun.
