8 Ball Pool: Classic Pool With Simple Mouse Controls

8 Ball Pool, from Famobi, is a pool simulation in which you try to send balls into the six pockets around the table. The rules follow the familiar game: you always strike the white cue ball and use it to knock other balls into the pockets, while avoiding sinking the cue ball itself.

How to Play 8 Ball Pool

Click and drag with the mouse to aim, and pull back to set how much force to use. Release to take the shot. Accuracy is everything, because both the angle and the speed decide whether a ball drops. Planning where the cue ball will stop after each shot makes the next one much easier.

Tips for Better Results

• Use gentle shots when the target ball is close to a pocket.
• Think about the cue ball's position for your next shot.
• Use the cushions to reach balls that are blocked by others.
• Never send the white ball into a pocket; it gives the advantage away.

Who Will Enjoy It

This is a comfortable game for anyone who enjoys pool or wants to learn it. Its calm pace makes it a good counterbalance to faster action games.
