Cheers

Great Game

Its one of the best pool games that i've played, and i'm glad its the English game over the american. I cant stand American pool, massive pockets etc etc, its daft and games are less challenging. Their are though, a few downsides to the rules of the game settings.

1. If i remember correctly, You should only get 2 shots on the 8-Ball when the opponent has four or more balls on the table, unless the foul shots being played come from a run of at least one ball before the 8-ball is shot upon.

2. Everybody should know this rule... You can't shoot up table from a foul ball placed behind the line. You may place the ball directly inline with the top most ball, and shoot for it, but the first shot should always be played 'Down Table'.

3. The first shot from a foul ball is a free ball, touch or even pot and opponents ball, on this shot only.

Thanks for the great review.

Here is my response:

1. People play all kind of rules - I've never heard that one before though. The old EPA rules, they say you get two shots on the black for any kind of foul. And that's the rules I used to play in pub leagues too.

2. This was originally a Straight Pool rule (still is, but I haven't included it in the game), but it's not played in official 8-Ball rules - and why would you want to???

3, This rule is in the game! You can pot your opponent's ball directly with your first shot after a foul, and still have two shots left! That's the proper pub rules - it speeds up the frames and stops people from blocking pockets all the time.

Can't stop playin'

One of my favourite games here, well done. Maybe the audio is a bit limitated

Good

This is a good pool game with lots of added games and challenges. The challenges and tournaments are very hard so I'd advise taking some Prozac first before you start ;).

Btw I love "The Sting" as your choice of music for this game.
