Physics is the beating heart of any Snooker game or Pool game! This is why we built a revolutionary Physics Engine with only one purpose: To make sure that it can deliver the Real Feeling of Billiards. We challenge you to test it out: spin, cue action, breaking the balls, shots off the cushions. It behaves just like the real thing!
It takes serious simulation of even the most tiny details to reach this level of Physical accuracy, and we are especially proud to be able to bring the next level pool physics to your mobile phone!

Community Insight:
One of the best snooker game ever.
The picture quality, impact, and first person perspective are all excellent, but unfortunately there are not many language options available, and the free practice mode is even better.
Hi, please add freecam, tanks your team.
This is how a pool game should be done. Very spot on cue ball control, speed, even not being able to use certain English on certain shots if youre blocked is the reason Id play this over any pool game out there right now.
It's amazingly adorable. The best snooker game you can ever have on you phone. But there is a weakness. There aren't enough updates! The notch on iphone causes frequent problems while playing. We'd be thankful if there were reconsiderations regarding more updates.
Very very good game for professional plyer.
Please update Please please please.we like this game.
Recently Im struggling to sign in using our Facebook account, else its a great game to play on iPad.
We spend too much Time playing lol The ability to snooker your opponent when down points at the end of the game is a great feature now. Id like to be able to comment our apologies on a fluke though! Please add that.
We had previously shunned the game in a former review (somehow has disappeared ) and would like to say that with all future play is still the best Snooker game app online and is an awesome virtual experience.
We would rate this game 5 stars but we have been playing it for past 4-5 years without representing our own flag. Why there is no Georgia in the country list? Please add Georgia to the country list.

This game needs an update but otherwise very good.
The game should be played until the opponent needs 4 or 5 snookers. That way theres a more realistic feel to the game and it add a little more pressure for the players. It keeps the flame lit.
Please add the option to block messages from opponent when playing one vs one.
Limited flags we wont more flags of Arab countries like Qatar There should be practice game.
Great game , please optimize it for iphone x screen as well, thank you.
First, the graphics are good with the 3d, the spins are realistic, and the sound effect is very creative. However, we dont know why sometimes our screen turns black and this causes miscue. It is not the problem of our internet and how to fix it? In addition, we can do nothing during connecting except for losing the game that we already win.
Our precise score would be two and a half stars. The one aspect that could be improved is the game controls. As a small aside, this app could benefit from having the option to play a full game with a computer player similar to Real Snooker 3D. Overall, very middling for an online snooker game, though adequate.
Please enable screen rotation for this app. Menu is cutoff on the left side and would like to flip it around so the notch doesnt cover the menu.
Hi we cannot open the app and we have paid for the full version of it. Need assistance on this.
We cant play with our friends on multiplayer task solve it plz.
This app is great! But the developer is totally forget this app and its never updated! In iPhone doesnt show the full screen and can not see some of the function. We were hoping they will fix it but never see any update.
10 out of 10 for realism, but losing a game because you happen to get a notification during a game and get disconnected just gets too frustrating to continue with. Such a shame as the game is a few bug fixes away from being fantastic.
Disclaimer: This is not a critique of the game so much as it is the people who play it. Gist: The best billiards simulator out there, but the most terrible community for the game. Full Review: we downloaded this game because our pool hall is closed due to the pandemic. We were super excited to see a very realistic simulation of being on the table, with fantastic ball physics and perspectives, without the flashiness you see in other games like 8 Ball Pool. We had a great time learning the mechanics in the single player mode, and was excited to get into the multiplayer. We wasnt thrilled about having sight lines (lines that show the line the object and cue balls will travel), but we saw that these go away the higher the level of play. Joining multiplayer, we were expected to be playing with fellow snooker lovers who wanted to have a similar experience to the real thing. However, upon joining the games, we soon realized the community is no more genuine than that of the 8 Ball Pool game. Most people take advantage of the sight lines and play shots you would never consider taking on a real table, completely nullifying the point of playing safeties, and taking the joy out of a good safety, because as long as they are not COMPLETELY snookered, they will take on the shots. Forget trying to get the ball in the bulk rail, because people dont have the humility or drive to try to return a snooker, but rather just wimp out and exploit the sight lines to make shots. Its enraging and makes the multiplayer aspect absolutely no fun, and the single player gets old once youve completed everything. We dont know what they could do to fix this. We dont think there is anything. Just be warned, the community is trash from the perspective of real play.
Hi, im a big fan of your snooker game! Not only that, we play snooker real life too. Back to the game app, what im not satisfied now is, when a match ended, the rematch button is no where to be seen. Is that true you lift / remove the rematch when a match played end? Why? From A very Frustrated customer.
How do u get perfect score on the table.
We play from the US and have a lot of connection issues. The game will say, connecting please dont leave. So, we dont leave but we still get kicked out, handed a loss, and lose our coins.
The first person live TV graphics are great. BUT, the games aim manipulation and camera control are inadequate to call this a good game. Its simply not possible to line up long oblique angles properly, and the camera often moves at the same time you are attempting to aim. This seems like a simple enough problem for the developers to have solved, but as it is completely undermines the enjoyment of the game. In general it is too difficult to pan around and see the rest of the table for positional planning. You should be able to easily examine an angle from a POV other than where the cue ball is. Plus, there honestly seem to be too many failed pocket rattle shots when hitting hard seems like the physics isnt quite right. The mandatory shot replays are also tiresome and just slow down gameplay. We dont need to see a replay of almost every shot. Looks lovely though.
With people to fight, If the opponent plays snooker, you will automatically lose if you exceed the score. Isnt snooker all about making comebacks against the wind? Whats the point of breaking the rules? Then why dont we just sit back and wait to win if only do snooker without scoring a goal? Losing just two goals against the wind, what kind of idiot did that.
For once there is a pool game that is very realistic in both the look and the physics of how a pool table and the cue balls behave. It isnt predetermining the winner by lining up the shots for them. The player has to figure it out. But then it doesnt PLAINLY display the rules of the game or warn the players that they will have to immediately spend REAL MONEY on ENERGy, or indicate when their energy levels will renew on its own.
The game does not protect newbies from sacrificing their hard earned coins to experts who raid the lowest levels for easy prey. As a level 5 who tries to play on only the second level (cant afford higher), Im not told that our opponent is a LEVEL 19 or even higher until its too late to decline the match without forfeiting our coins. Until the game restricts higher level players from the games on the lower rungs of the ladder, we cannot recommend this game to anyone else. The second star is for the ease of play only.
The game is a killer with graphics and physics, but for some reason, we can play with anyone we know. Facebook wont connect to it, and the game code thing works 0.5% of the time, its frustrating. And everyone is named You for a reason, must work on it, and this game can be the best in no time.
Thats a good game but not fit to iphone 11 s screen.
It seems that there is no way to win against the online players, felt so depressed after losing all our coins, we must say this is extremely frustrating for players who really like snooker.
Once you get past the beginner levels more than half your matches are against bots. You can tell this because they shoot quickly and every shot is made perfectly and every leave is literally perfect no matter how unlikely. Its fun when playing real people, but playing a bot that runs half the table then makes an obvious miss. Usually it gives you one maybe two chances to run (often one chance and if they miss again its because you pretty much already lost).
Game is good, but the code is trash! Lots and lots of bugs. Especially when you made a winning shot.
We download this game and played for two hours. Without a place for training -training table was NOT free(in fact it was rather expensive!)- we had to play pvp. Players that we encountered mostly shot very accurately, and so we KEPT LOOSING. Soon, we lost all our coins and had to stop playing. Founding that getting more coins was not free TOO, we deleted this game immediately.
After casually playing this for the past 2 months, we can safely say that its almost impossible to move past season 2 with their egregious energy pricing model with such a slow regeneration.
Great game, enjoy when all fine, but freezes and we loose the match, that is not fare! Fix the problem! Update!!! And Im sure youll get 5 stars from us next time.
We cant connect to multiplayer anymore , its just loading and loading . No more challenging.
First of all, the game is not optimized for big screen phones and iPhone 11 and later, so you will sometimes not be able to reach a button and will be super annoyed. The physics of the game are nice and enjoyable but.. The real problem is the MULTIPLAYER we dont know what freaky old method is used for the connection but it is NOT GOOD.. If you pull down the toolbar of the phone or even accidentally open the active tasks during the match making, you will automatically forfeit the match and LOSE MONEY.. Its super annoying.. And even if you get a little bit of lag at any time during the match, we guarantee you will lose the match.. Even during a 50k match that you worked so hard to reach!!!! So in conclusion, SUPER ANNOYING script used in the multiplayer section, and the rest of the game is practically garbage.
First, learn the rules. Secondly, try to create a game without bugs like finishing the game in the middle of the frame because of "internet connection". We have lost millions like this! Fckn shift game! The plan is good, we like the graphics and gameplay, but fix the main things! We're very, very angry.
Ive been playing this game for years and had a ton of upgraded equipment and money. One day we log in and everything is now gone. Great.
This game is full of glitches, full of them. Jumps all over the place.
Game is very annoying, you whenever your guideline does not reach the object ball, it is virtually impossible to make a pot. Screw this game.
Lot of connection issues in past 2 weeks where you would just loose the game. Also when are we coming up with new stages. Its been 3 months waiting for anything post season 24.
Terrible connection issues. Game has become unplayable.
