Foobilliard

What’s great about FooBilliard is how it so successfully mimics the physics and geometry of this wonderful barroom sport. This game is as real as it gets. And if you are not good at pool in real life, you may have trouble with this one. You have to know techniques, how to use corners, and how to hit the ball at exactly the right speed to have success in this one. Even the realistic computer opponent gives you a unique, challenging, and unpredictable match each time.

This game was originally built to operate on the Linux platform, but now it can be played with Windows too. You have the option to choose various styles of games, from single games to tourneys and championships. Indeed, this game can become a quest for glory quite quickly. You can also choose to play either 8-ball, 9-ball, carom, and snooker. And you can have two player matches, which makes it a great game to play with friends.

Some of the most impressive features the game has include reflections on the balls, zoom options, detailed ball switching, and much more. Even the sound attributes are great. The 3D graphics offer unmatched clarity and make you feel as though you are truly in the action.

One thing that is kind of confusing is that there seems to be no helpful game menu if you want to implement any changes in the game. What you have to do is hit the escape button on your computer or phone and bring up the main menu and go from there. Other than that, there are too many major complaints about FooBilliard.

All together this is a pretty solid pool game that can be enjoyed alone or with friends. Unlike many other games, it can be quite difficult, and that always makes things more interesting.
