Reviews for "Powerpool 2"

very good

i loved the power ups u guy just need 2 add like a speed ball seriously 10 out of 10 it was very enjoyable

Entertaining

Overall it was a very enjoyable game, with good variation from level to level and table to table. Generally the power-ups were interesting, though I found usually a hindrance rather than useful (to the point where I usually tried to get rid of them without hitting them directly).

I do have a few minor gripes with it though.

Firstly it seems far far too easy to scratch/pot the cue ball. I don't know if I'm just hopeless at the game, but often it seemed it would fly in from ridiculous positions. This was especially true when hitting the light blue splitting balls. They could be covering the pocket, but upon hitting them the white would career right through it and in, leaving the three reds on the table.

On a similar note, the reactions of the balls when hitting each other is a bit inconsistent. Sometimes the cue ball would bounce away from the object ball, sometimes it would follow it in, both playing it slow and hard, and on perfectly straight shots. With the option of putting spin on this would be fine, but it was incredibly annoying to play a straight shot and watch the white just follow on into the pocket. The same could be said for object balls hitting each other. A lot of plants resulted in both balls following in as if some kind of top spin had been imparted.

One final issue was how balls bounced when wedged against a cushion/bumper. If they were up close and you hit straight into them they always seemed to follow the cushion rather than bouncing back off it. In some cases with the bumpers they didn't even move at all! Although that made potting easier on the square table, the seemingly random bouncing back of the cue ball led to a large number of scratches that wouldn't have happened had the ball bounced back normally.

So mainly just minor physics issues to complain about, but overall an enjoyable game.

Very Good
