    Honestly would rated like a 3.6, because it can get boring after a while. I really enjoy this game, and honestly it should be left as a offline game forever. For all those people complaining about “OMG! To much ads” literally turn off your cellular data for the game in settings or just when you want to play the game just turn off the wifi for sometime and turn it on later, at least for me. About the boring part, Pooking should make it where you can at least play against other bots with different modes from easy to hard, extreme, intense, etc. Also the developer of Pooking should allow 2 players to play to make it more fun and interesting during each level or maybe something separate besides the levels, but other than that its a good game.

  • Awesome

    Love the the game. Agree with the comment about too many ads but would happily pay for an ad free version.
  • Excellent on the verge of epic

    As it is, this game is as challenging as it is peaceful as it is addictive. I don’t know how many levels there are, but I hope there are at least 1000. I’m on 229

    If these guys would do a couple things, this game would be legendary:

    1. When you miss a shot, you can’t come back from that and get the “crown” for that level. One should be able to make up for it by doing difficult shots like banks and combos and so forth.

    2. This game needs instructions. It’s not that it is a difficult game to understand and play, but, for instance, what are the properties of the various sticks that you get as you go along? What do those letters at the top mean? Things like that.

    3. One should get extra points for banked shots.

    4. When you put a ball in a pocket that has the hand that removes a ball, you should be able to choose which ball is removed

    5. After a scratch it’s hard to place the cue ball. Your finger covers it and you can’t see where exactly it’s going to be placed.

    6. You should be able to call the pocket and get extra points for making a called shot pocket.
    7. Make a level where you have to sink the balls in order (nine ball)

    8. Have an “undo” function that costs you a heart or something.

  • Great fun

    Don’t get this game, you’ll waste many hours playing it, and still come back for more. Love that it’s just you and the game, no need for online challenges etc, it’s relaxing playing this, on level 520 with a personal mission to clear ever level as a single combo. A few less adverts would be good, but there again the game is free.

  • Not to Scale

    Maybe this goes without saying, but the game is not to scale. It requires great precision to sink balls in the corner pockets since they are about 3x the size of a regular billiard ball in relation to the pocket width. This puts a bias on the side pockets, so you find yourself leaving the cue with side pocket shots in mind, which takes you further away from a real pool experience. Also, on a real pool table you can usually touch five (sometimes six) rails with a full stroke... the rails in this game are not as lively. But, the game is enjoyable nonetheless. I just wish the balls weren’t the size of croquet balls and the rubber was bouncier.

  • Good Game to Learn On

    I like the game because it wiles away some otherwise monotonous time and because it gives a player, whether they have actually played pool or not, a chance to see the configuration from overhead which greatly assists in understanding the angles involved in making a clean shot of a single ball or a combination of balls. I have actually learned some of the wrong things I used to do when I played pool with my buddies in college. Since that was fifty-five years ago, I doubt I could get a re-match.

  • 1020 games done

    Played this game while waiting for planes in a lot of different country’s, got to my 1020th game today in Pittsburgh USA, started in Either Dundee Scotland or Brisbane Australia it was a good time and i won a lot of crowns, I guess I’ll go redo the ones I didn’t get crowns on
  • Good Game for practicing

    I love this game!! It’s not the fastest table, and you aren’t shooting against anyone else but yourself, but it its a good visual game for practicing your shots. I love the different shaped tables. You really have to watch your speed and angles. I also love the trick shots they put in there. What I love most is you are able to keep going back to play each table to improve your score and receive ‘crowns’. My goal is to have crowns though the whole city. This is THE BEST game for practicing shooting pool! ❤️❤️❤️

  • Shoot better pool here

    28 Jan 2021

    Congratulations, dear Player! Yes, three cheers and huzzah for reaching level 1020! I say this because the game won't. It just ends abruptly at table 1020.

    What other reviewers say is true -- ball physics are pretty realistic. It's easy to line up your shot and control the force used (Luke). Pooking builds your confidence. You will pocket more balls here than you would on a real table. Tip: try playing in Airplane Mode!

    Suggestions for the devs:
    -Please get rid of the oddball tables! They are aggravating and don't belong in the game.
    -Please provide an option to disable the hand.
    -Instead of designing 1000 different starting positions, why not simply rack the balls? Let the player choose between 8-ball, 9-ball, and 14.1 racks.
    -Let the player set up practice shots.
    -Let the player replay the last position.
    -And thanks for making a game that gave me many hours of enjoyment!

  • Great New Way To Tackle A Pool Game 👀

    I love pool games but this game has changed the way you play, I’ve got a whole range of pool and snooker games and love them too but man the tables with different shapes and rippled sides is so cool because you have to predict what direction the cue ball will travel and the screw control and side control are great so what I’m really trying to say is if you love pool games then look no further than this cool game because it is a great way to pass the time when travelling to work on the bus 🚌,train 🚂 or car 🚙.
