Explore, admire and listen. That’s it. Uncanny. Relaxing. Unnerving. Eerie. Immersive. POOLS isn’t a traditional game. it’s slow, reflective, and intentionally uneventful, perhaps a bit like virtual museum. So take your time. Breathe. POOLS unfolds slowly, rewarding patience and quiet attention. No monsters chasing you or jumping at your screen. Yet it can feel oppressive at times by invoking quiet fears of getting lost, the dark, tight spaces and the strange beauty of liminal space architecture. There's no typical story. But as you explore and advance further, you start to notice that the game's world changes around you, deeper you go… Rooms look and feel… different. Base game features six chapters, each lasting 10-30 minutes. Inspired by the internet phenomena Liminal spaces, Found footage and The Backrooms, especially the Poolrooms concept. One of the original artists behind the Poolrooms concept is Jared Pike.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Fast Finger! at none against POOLS™'s 1. Fast Finger! also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 79%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). POOLS™'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 77 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

POOLS™ holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: POOLS™ has 1.6K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Fast Finger!'s written reviews are positive against 79% of POOLS™'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Fast Finger! ships an update every 77 months, POOLS™ every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 4, 2026 and October 19, 2026 respectively.
