Pool Hall Pro Demo

Pool is the kind of game that's usually played with friends at the local pub, or in dedicated environments with the proper equipment. This is due to the fact that pool tables are quite expensive and they require a lot of room, not to mention that they are incredibly heavy and cumbersome.

Pool Hall Pro provides you with an alternative to the problem, by allowing you to enjoy the sport from the comfort of your own home and with minimal expenses involved. Granted, the experience may not be as authentic as the real thing, but it can get the job done if you are really aching for some pool. Not only that, but it is also packed with game modes to keep you busy for a long time.

As such, you can either choose to play a single match against the AI, or engage in lengthy tournaments and events, featuring multiple opponents and a prize at the end. Multiplayer modes are available as well, which means that you can go head-to-head with other players and match your wits against humans for a change, if the AI disappoints you.

Unfortunately, the fun might be rather short-lived, because players who are familiar with the actual sport should immediately spot the fact that the simulation is very faulty and sketchy at best. Not only that, but the camera is horrendous and you never really get to line up the shot the way you want to, which is both frustrating and annoying at the same time.

Thankfully, the visuals are pretty good and both the balls and the table look decent, so you won’t have any problems in this department. The presentation is a bit amateurish, on the other hand, since you always have to wait for the players to be shown before each shot and there’s a constant text on the screen that can get in the way of your aiming every now and again.

Pool Hall Pro is certainly not going to satisfy the avid pool players out there, due to some glaring design flaws that take the joy out the game. On the other hand, less experienced gamers might find it attractive, thanks to the good graphics and the simple interface.
