It usually Just happens when I enter the tournaments I should have won about 90 percent of them by the way ! So I would give it a 6 star rating if there was one ! So your attention to this matter would be greatly appreciated !! Thank you very much😎 ### 4/5 — Crashes *2020-10-21, version 2.2.9* Hello there I’m enjoying the game everything great but the crashes need to be dealt with thanks ### 4/5 — Pool game *2020-01-07, version 2.2.5* Very easy to accidentally shoot when trying to position cue stick ### 5/5 — Good controls and gameplay *2019-11-02, version 2.2.1* Best part about the app I liked are the controls.

I’m gonna recommend this app if you wanted to do something enjoyable during your free time. ### 4/5 — Nice overall *2019-10-28, version 2.2.1* I wish it wouldn’t allow you to hit balls that are not yours. It would be nice to get some form of sign when you are on the wrong ball because it might be hard to see since it’s a game. Overall great game ### 5/5 — Simple enjoyable pool game *2019-10-26, version 2.2.1* If you like to relax and play some 8ball this is a great way to spend some time.

No real ways to upgrade Not recommend No help or instruction ### 1/5 — 100% totally fake *2020-10-10, version 2.2.9* This game is like the model T to the version that’s called eight ball pool trademark. It is kind of fun to play on it because it’s harder to play the aim is not accurate like eight ball pool . The problem is you’re supposed to be playing with people all over the world and it’s completely made up. Right off the bat > I was playing some of the same people over and over but guess what their stats never change. Of course they will not respond to you when you talk to them using the pre-made up terms you can say to them. Everyone you play has got a fancy Cue that they purchase supposedly at the ‘’store’’ while you’re using the standard stick .Also of course when you play tournaments everybody seems to get finished with their table at the same time you do ...how convenient. If you like playing against a fake player and they’re easy to beat, this is for you. You do have the options to playing with friends that are real. ### 2/5 — No longer loads *2021-02-17, version 2.3.0* Played this a lot until last week. Now hangs up at log-in and never loads. ### 2/5 — Not real *2019-01-14, version 2.2* If you brake the 8 ball in pool you win not restart. ### 3/5 — Great Game! But ! *2021-02-16, version 2.3.0* I played this game all the time But! Now it doesn’t work, just says loading. Please fix!! ### 3/5 — Game is fun BUT... *2020-08-23, version 2.2.9* My friend keeps trying to challenge me, it won’t let me accept! Same when I try to challenge him! ### 3/5 — Fun *2018-02-20, version 2.0* I like the game, but it loses connection in about every game. Consequently, I get booted out and have to log in again. Also I marked remember the login info, and it doesn’t. In addition, wished you got paired with players of about the same level. Otherwise, the game is fun. **Developer response:** Thanks for your review. We really appreciate the opinion of our users. In the soonest update, it will remember your login info after losing the connection, and you will not be forced to fill it again. In any case, the loss of connection mainly depends on the quality of your Internet. And please do not worry about the opponent level. If someone has a higher level, this doesn't mean that he/she plays better than you :) Good Luck! ### 4/5 — Good game! *2023-12-29* I like that it’s a challenge and you don’t always win! There are a few things that I wish were different though: it times out your shot without any clock and there’s some sort of a glitch where you go to shoot and then it says you didn’t hit the cushion and you lose your turn. But overall it’s a good game! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love the game *2022-11-08, version 2.3.2* Hey ### 5/5 — Billiards *2022-06-22, version 2.3.2* This game is awesome.

It’s very realistic and super fun. I really enjoy playing this game 8 ball on my spare time. It’s graphics and sound quality so good.

Keep on playing :) ### 5/5 — Love it *2019-11-07, version 2.2.1* I really enjoy playing this app ### 5/5 — I Won My First Game *2019-11-06, version 2.2.1* I really enjoyed playing this game of 8 Ball. The graphics were clean and the game handled really well! I love the different game options and fees. The option of playing multiplayer gives you the feeling of playing a real game. I will definitely play again! ### 5/5 — Love the game *2019-11-04, version 2.2.1* I enjoy this game alot more than 8 Ball Pool. I feel it looks way more clean and is smoother. I noticed while playing that if you are wanting to hit the opposite color you need to it let's you without a warning. I feel adding a circle with an x over that ball would make the user experience better. The UI of the game is very high quality but I am not very fond of the main screen, I feel it could look more professional overall giving the game a better first impression. It is a very well made game and runs very smooth on my iPhone 6. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2019-11-04* Great game, very addictive and fantastic gameplay. Love the quickness of the game and ability to play a tournament function. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
