For a frustratingly inaccurate pool game, this is strangely addictive and I think it's down to the games overall presentation. There's something majestically of its time about this. It gives me straight to video action movie or Star Trek holodeck episode vibes. The music and atmosphere feels like its own thing, with the gameplay being an added side note.

I played a few of the different levels (I guess), and each one gets a bit tougher as you go on, giving you chances to pot trick shots for extra points. Gameplay wise,it's quite rough. The accuracy is quite ropey. Sometimes you'll get a decent shot, but a lot of the times you feel like you're at the mercy of where about the white ball is in relation to what you're trying to pot because of the size of the cue guide and general hit detection. Yet I still found myself playing this till 1am last night.

Come for the pool, stay for the atmosphere.
