Pool for Windows

Pool – challenge your friends in local multiplayer mode – show them who is better when you are in the same room.

The developers suggest starting a career in the Pool game with a simple tutorial aimed at beginners and describing the nuances and subtleties of the “nine”, “eight” and “carom”: what balls and in what order to score, when to take risks and how to turn some games into your own benefit. Advice is given mainly in text format – fights with bots in billiards in the Pool are suitable for practice.

After joining, access to multiplayer duels is also unlocked, where statistics of completed matches are kept, points for victories and defeats are awarded and deducted, titles and achievements are assigned. Additional bonuses await those who often look into Multiplayer: as an option – a transition to a new league (higher status), where the rewards are higher, and the opponents do not forgive a single mistake.

In terms of gameplay, the Pool app does not offer any surprises, such as a manually controlled cue or bonuses that get in the way of opponents, but promote accurate action and 100% pocketing. Quite the opposite – duels take place in a traditional format and in accordance with all the rules. This means that you have to exchange blows one by one until there are no balls left or the black eight gets into the pocket.

Settings and Difficulty

Among the selected parameters, the developers distinguish the interface language, the volume and type of music played in the background (there are a lot of options – from “classics” with unobtrusive motives to energetic jazz and electronics), the design of the gambling table, the design of the avatar and the method of painting the cue. The listed options are unlocked immediately, but some settings will appear later. At that moment, when the profile ceases to contain all the awards and you will have to choose which title or prize to place in the description.

Difficulty can also be changed. Moreover, in battles with artificial intelligence (there a similar parameter is displayed separately), and in multiplayer mode. In the second case, the difficulty will be affected by the current rating (opponents will become noticeably stronger), the number of victories and the “league”, as well as the length of service. And the further into the jungle, the more difficult fights will become, and easy victories will become less frequent.
