8 Ball Pool™

Something I like about this game before playing

I like playing with virtual friends or Bot, instead of inviting someone to play with me, similar to some apps. Therefore, this app is no exception for this benefit.

Receiving a gift is a common psychology that each of us has, and I am no exception. In this app, I like when a certain virtual player I don’t know sent free gifts, specifcally 100 coins to me.

A certain virtual friends invites me to a challenge, which sounds interesting to me.

Wifi or not?

To play this game in a complete version, the game required Wifi, annoying me somehow. Beside, I wantrf my Wifi to turn on because enalbing Wifi while playing games could overheat my phone in general and drain my battery in particular.

However, there was a practice mode that I could play without Wifi. As usual, I don’t like inviting someone to play because I don’t want to bother. Hence, I play two roles as player 1 and player 2, synonymous with being a rival of each other.

Other things I discovered

I don’t know if this is a real money making app, because there were many offers like I was using a certain money-making app, typically watching ads. In my opnion, this app is not a real money-making app, because there are no payout option for users. Instead, there was just a virtual coin or cash that we can gain after winning the opponent, as well as using free offers I’ve mentioned earlier.

Not only are we playing billiards, but also betting, one of the particular elements of this app. If you win, you’ll get a bunch of money upon the winning prize . Otherwise, you’ll lose. Accepting bet with opponent is synonymous with spending my 100 coins from my balance. In case of losing a lot of times or a large number of coins, I couldn’t continue to play anymore. If Iwere to watch ads or accepting some free offers, maybe I could gain some Pool coins.

Making a purchase on any exclusive products is what I don’t usually do. Or in realty, I don’t like doing that at all, since I don’t like spending something unneccesary. Beside, I’m not so rich that I can spend a certain mount of real money buying these products. Spending some coins or cash with buying cues’ skin is acceptable, but spending real money with buying more certain coins or cash is not what I want. Nonetheless, this is a common things if you want to expereience of all exclusive stuffs the developers offer.

Last but not least, the graphic design for the app looks beautiful with wooden-alike element. The choice of color for element ranging from

What I experienced in playing 8 ball pool

Regarding the in-game section, the ball’s smooth movement while being hit looks more realistic than the billiard from the app Bar Games – 2 Players that I once tried.

Regarding the rules of 8 ball pool, I didn’t have times to understand clearly. One of the most remarkable rules of this game I can remember is related to 8 ball, determining the winner of 8 ball pool. Aparting from the type of ball I should aim appropriately, 8 ball MUST be the final one to win. I didn’t know why the player is allowed for adjustment of cue ball. Could this be after the oponent lost their turns because of hitting cue ball or not hitting appropriate type of ball? As mentioned earlier, I didn’t understand the rules of this game in thorough manner.

I don’t like “living game” at all!

When it was my turn, I had to quickly determine my aim to hit the balls. Otherwise, I would lose my turn, becoming one of my main pressure.

I tried to resume my game, but the game wouldn’t allow my resume. I tried choosing options to adjust something,. for instance, but I still saw the progress of playing. I wanted to quit the game to quit this app, but if doing so, I’d lose the winning prize, leading to reduction of my coins. I had to opt one out of two options: Continue to win or lose the bet.

And that’s my review of this app. Thanks for reading!
