Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Total Pool 2 at none against Real Pool 3D's 10. Total Pool 2 also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). Real Pool 3D's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (6.1K vs 8). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
