Pool 8 takes players to a soothing yet rigorous billiards conundrum where every shot counts. You are to sink the balls to the pocket and think several moves ahead at the same time. The game facilitates the drawing of a strategy, waiting patiently, and using the walls judiciously. The fluidity of controls, the gradual increase in difficulty of levels, and each stage testing the player's strategy and cue control, and smart timing make for a very fulfilling game of billiards.
Pool 8 requires the player to clear the table first of all the balls and then the required sequence of pocketing. The game introduces a step-by-step moving system, so each stroke takes the cue ball to the last point where it either meets another ball or a wall. Planning the order of shots, using the wall to change directions, and guessing where the cue ball will be after each hit are the key skills for success. Initially, the levels come easily, and then increase the number of balls and make the layout more difficult. Since the sequence is fixed, one wrong move can mess up the plan; thus, the players are compelled to think and even contemplate the next few moves before taking a shot. The combination of logic and geometry turns every level into a little puzzle requiring careful thought to solve.
