All things scam
by Johnpyro on 2019/01/20 14:45
It’s a fun game till you play. Players cheat a lot. The game is set up to have non realistic play and ball physics. This game is set up to pay real money for everything. Of course you can watch a video for free cash or coins but after watching the said videos you may get the cash or have to wait 24 hrs to try again. If they offer you a free incentive, don’t count on it. If you happen to play a game and doing well, don’t worry your opponent may step away for a few seconds. The time they are away takes away from your shot. So yes you will lose, so much for fair and honest game

Played this game for many weeks found that it is not very realistic and you often find random outcomes for simple things such as a ball not moving what so ever if you hit it hard it enough
Good game ever
by الغرطاوووي on 2019/01/20 04:59
Thanks for this beautiful game, I would suggest a suggestion in order to develop this game for the most beautiful .. I would appreciate if you make a direct conversation with the opponent to give a nice feature on this mass game. And you shall die
This game is a joke

It is alright
by Casterline on 2019/01/20 02:54
It is a fine way to waste 5 mins but my problem is there are a few cheaters and it is obvious that they are cheating. Good chance if they lvl 20 or higher and they using the starting que, they probably cheating. One guy was so obvious he only took like less than a second to aim each shot, and some where really impressive. But when you do beat a cheater with real skill it dose make you feel good.

by Steveeeeeeoo on 2019/01/20 01:48
If you are halfway decent, and win fairly, the software makes you scratch out of the blue, often resulting in a loss. What’s the point?
😤
by tpin82 on 2019/01/20 01:33
I’ve been experiencing a multitude of issues. Sometimes when I win , my coins will go down , sometimes when I win it says loading and then says ran out of time then the other person wins even tho I won?? I’ve spent money on coins in this game and experienced these problems. Almost like it’s designed for you to spend money then lose it even if you win.
Funnnn

Great pool game w/one small caveat
by (w on 2019/01/19 23:11
Physics are there, fun is there, depth is there. All in all a great pool game. However, when players switch to another app, it makes the other player wait in the middle of his run for them to come back. This can really rule off your rhythm, and the higher level players know this and use it to throw you off. If a player leaves, it shouldn’t interrupt the game. If that player doesn’t come back in time for their turn, then they lose their turn. Please change this, it’s so annoying.

This game lies
by Mdub5 on 2019/01/19 21:19
Beware! This game claims to give you “free” dollars if you sign up for different sweepstakes and what not. In reality, you are signing up for a lifetime of junk mail and spam, and you don’t get the “free” money for in game purchases. Don’t trust this game, it is very dishonest!
Don’t buy in app purchases
by jsggjndff on 2019/01/19 21:04
The game itself is a lot of fun, it’ll make you feel like a better player than you actually are. Tough at first getting to know the quarks of how the balls move around.
At first I bought a few coins and noticed I did better at higher levels only to lose them all soon thereafter. I noticed that I was potting the 8 ball and the Q ball on critical high level games, that was not normal.
I highly recommend the game for pure fun but beware of getting caught up in the in app purchases!!!

Needs Serious Improvement
by feng_shui YT on 2019/01/19 19:34
The “free rewards” system is broken. Half of the time, when I want to claim my free cash for the day, the game doesn’t give me the cash, but the timer is still set. What this means is I have to wait another day more for what I waited a day before for.
In a match, I tend to want to hit the cue ball at the maximum power allowed. Occasionally, this backfires and the cue ball is barely hit at all. This is angering, especially when all of your coins are at stake.
The spin feature is somewhat broken as well. I set the cue ball for max backspin, but when I hit the cue ball, it decides to go forwards rather than the direction I had wanted it to go prior.
In all, I like this game, but the issues listed brings the game’s enjoyment down.

by nhmann81 on 2019/01/19 18:51
Good game ...most of the time! I make a shot & for whatever reason I have to either Make the shot again or it says I ran outta time for no reason at all. Granite sometimes it will pause the game saying that The connection is slow even though I’m sitting in my living room with a solid Wi-Fi connection and then when it comes back to the game it says I ran out of time??? I’ve lost a lot of games because of these issues & it’s getting old!!! I’ll be looking for a different game if it does it one more time , in which , it inevitably will so ...

Only because
by Boogie_Sparrow on 2019/01/19 16:33
Only because the amount of crap people deal with when it comes to time. 7 times now I’ve “ran out of time” when after my previous shot I’m sure I had more than 10 seconds. Very disappointing and I lose big games because of it. What is going on. I am very upset.

by Staytlyn on 2019/01/19 13:56
This game is wonderful and I love to play, but it has a flaw. When you pull back to hit the cue, sometimes it let’s go for you instead of letting you aim.

The game is fun but far too many games end before you ever even get to shoot, especially once you get to higher wager amounts, players have far too long to line up shots as well

Fun w/potential but $ wasting game with glitches
by BamCarter on 2019/01/18 04:08
Game freezes a lot. Over populated with constant annoying pay advertising. There’s no experience matching. If your vs opponent leaves the game you’re stuck waiting for a minute + for the results.
PLus I think it’s a way of cheating you out of a win if you’re wanting a quick game and in a hurry.
Best game ever stranger reaction tho.

They have rigged the game
by all5points on 2019/01/18 00:58
If you are competitive at all do not play this game. It’s based on building points and they’re trying to upsell you. I noticed I won a ton of games up front but once I would get to a certain point level weird things start happening. Things like the cue ball going in a natural directions so that you scratch. I even noticed a few times where the cue ball would be slowing down and then speed up real quick to scratch. My theory is that they get you hooked and then make you lose every game until you lose all your points and have to buy more.

In Moscow at the end you have to “call a pocket” to win and I hit the 8 ball inside the pocket I chose but the cue ball went inside a different pocket so I ended up losing because I scored my last ball and the opponents ball at the same time so I just got robbed and it is DUMB

Doesn’t always payout
by Imminent Storm on 2019/01/17 21:33
The game is entertaining and is a nice pool game that pairs up players well so people don’t get eaten alive by wallet warriors. My 2 complaints are the game can pig out on your data & the video rewards don’t always payout after you watch them. The data gorging is irrelevant to watching videos. I’ve burned 40 MB just logging once. If you restrict it to only WiFi or you have unlimited you’re fine but the video rewards not always paying out is irritating

by juassicdino on 2019/01/17 11:39
8 ball pool is a fun game but what is stupid is that if I hit a ball on its side when I’m on the other side of the pool table from the ball I hit it with full force and it moves an inch but if my opponent does the same thing and it goes for like a mile also if I pit the 8 when I’m supposed to and like 3 after I do that the cue ball goes in to my opponent wins

Best pool on the net, but rudeness is common with their canned messages for conversation! Not to mention the occasional x rated avatars (don't see them much on ipad now), demonic images, and names! And now terrorist style symbols of swords and death. It's really scary that there are so many people who identify with demons, and evil! Mostly people just play, but often are rude! Not where I would want my kids playing! For adults only! And now it is all about money. Constant pop ups trying to sell silly game pieces. $20 a month to play on the ”pro” tables. Many years ago I saw they make 25 million on this game alone, and that was before all the buy this pop ups.
Best Pool Game ...
by Jon&Jen72 on 2018/04/29 05:15
I’ve played yet. OK it’s the first pool game I’ve downloaded but I doubt there’s a better one out there. Free version has a discreet ad crawler at the bottom of your screen but it doesn’t interfere with your view, It starts out with only 8 Ball available but you quickly unlock 9 Ball too. Game graphics are excellent. Ball physics are pretty accurate overall. You can even apply English to your shot to draw or curve the cue ball to help set up your next shot. My only complaint would be that your “shot clock” (the time you have to take each shot) is like 15 seconds +/- which is long enough for your opponent to cheat by laying down a ruler on his phone to line up a perfect shot. The opponents I get on 9 Ball are always ridiculously good. Still the game has tons of cues, rings, money and special locations to unlock which keeps you interested. Best part is that you can advance up through the ranks without spending a dime of real money. Anyone who gives this game a bad review probably works for a competitor’s company. Or they’re just one of those Mr. Complainy-Pants Debbie Downer Troll types who run around online looking to criticize everything. Those people are angry about their own lives and their reviews should not be given serious consideration. Kinda like food critics.
Glitches or intentional?
by SampsonD on 2017/10/12 21:08
I like the different game goals (rings) and the look of different tables and options it gives, but other than that I’m not impressed. One problem is it doesn’t match you with players in your “ranking or experience”. A beginner may end up with an opponent that has been classified as a pro or better, depending on how long they’ve been playing. Also too many interruptions when playing with challenger banners or wanting you to challenge your FB friends. The cue stick charges don’t last through a game if you have a bad break then you may have to recharge more than once for consistent shots and that’s in addition to placing a bet. The balls sometimes can hang half over a pocket to drop then it jolts back towards the table, but the cue can too often roll with ease for a scratch. It’s just a bit fishy when you AND your opponents ball should have dropped but jolts back from the hole. There are a few more minor issues that are annoying like not being able to type your own text for chat. I’d rather it was emojis than some of the stupid pretext messages and then you have to buy more if you want to add some. Shows a lot of greed. Plus it’s anybody’s guess as to who is going to break. If you play 5 games in a row with a different player each game you may not get to break on any of those even if you lost previously. All of this is even after purchasing the app. 🙄
Fun

I have played this game for years. If you take your time and play the games based on coins within your means it is fun. Nobody likes to lose but is addictive. With 8 & 9 ball and then tournaments, play different ones when you have made bad shots and lost or want to extend your fun. I do get mad at times like everyone else but if you are playing low coin games you can have lots of fun and then can add your messages to create more stress so if it good luck or trash talk all goes both ways back and forth. You get free coins every day and can watch videos for more too. Like any other game when you get mad or bored give it a break for a couple days and come back to it. I have played this game for fun when traveling or at a doctors office waiting and connection is important but at home you can play friends and message each other in the game which makes it more fun. I switch among 8&9 ball and tournaments with different coin values and even though I do lose when I thought I wasn’t it still give new life when you lost and then you finally win again. Probably one of my overall favorite apps too so give it a try for a while if you like pool!
Cheats you of time & money
by ImaUserNoMore on 2018/06/07 13:47
Although this game can be enjoyable when working properly, it often has what it labels as “connection slow” issues. If you tap on a profile during this event, you will see the message “updating.” When this happens and it finishes its update, you could potentially be losing time leaving you no time to aim and shoot causing you to lose your turn. This has often caused players to lose the game & money if you pay for any additional coins. It makes it appear that your connection is slow but in reality the games’ network is overburdened. This is happening more frequently than when I first started playing. There are other minor issues which aren’t worth mentioning. But the so called “slow connection” issue is the worst and why I keep rating it with 3 stars.
UPDATE: After reading some other reviews, I agree that there are bots especially when chat comments like Never Give Up are used when it makes no sense. I agree with seems that most players are in countries other than my own and skill levels not matched. I agree that it cheats you out of money and algorithyms used seem to cause you to lose. There seems to be lack of support but increase in glitches. What I don’t get is why it’s still labeled as the Editor’s Choice. Therefore I’m downgrading the rating to 2 stars.
Ok game
by Indyglf on 2017/11/24 15:39
It’s an ok game. Usually just play to pass time while sitting around. Game constantly wants you to buy in app purchases, not going to happen. Why would anyone spend their money to buy coins not like you’re winning real money. Your never going to win any decent amount of coins on your free daily spin because of course they immediately give you a chance to buy another spin. I sometimes wonder if they even give you the little bit of coins you do win because the game hides your total amount when you spin so unless you remember to check your total before you spin you never know if you get the actual coins. Game has some annoying glitches as well, like when you put a ball right in front of a pocket and the app moves the ball back away from it. This happens every game. Another annoying glitch is if you hit your last ball in and the 8 ball in on the same shot it gives the win to your opponent this should not be the case especially when your last ball goes in long before the 8 ball drops. Of course the main goal of this game is to make the developers loads of money so they are going to do everything in their power to get you to spend more money. Have never made any in app purchases and never will.
8 Ball Pool
by Katieball88 on 2018/01/25 02:54
By far the best game I’ve ever played. I started playing this game in 2011, stopped because I had forgot about it and then started it back up and everyday when I get off of work and get home I sit down and play to wind down and have a good time. I hardly ever win, (I mean my percentage is lower than 35%! Lol), but I still look forward to it everyday. I’m surprised that people have constantly stated that there is glitches and issues. I have played this game for years, across many different platforms and versions, NEVER HAVE I HAD ANY ISSUES, when the connection is having issues, it is my understanding that it is the internet connection of myself or my opponent, and in this kind of situation if you wait it out then you will become the winner at the end of time out. I assume that both parties are assumed winners and I think that is a great way to deal with any issues among players. I’m assuming that the people who complain are just sore losers, and can’t be ok with accepting a loss. I think it’s fun either way win or lose, but I do think that I should be better by now with all the time I have played haha.
This game is RIGGED
by LorenzoGThomas on 2018/01/19 07:32
I gave it 2 stars because used to enjoy playing it. But once I started to jump on some of the deals (.99 cents - 1.99) things changed. I started getting cheated out of games. There is no way I will be able to explain all that has happened for people to get an understanding of what I mean. I just can’t understand the physical logic of how I can be “right next” to the 8 ball on the last shot (say bottom left pocket) and I would literally just “tap” that ball..I mean literally JUST TAP it and that cue ball would bounce 2 rails and scratch on me on the opposite end of the table...there was not that much power put into the shot for that to have happened and yet it has happened multiple times over and over and over...please understand me when I say I TAPPED that ball, I mean I moved that cue stick the shortest amount possible...no one will get it so I will stop trying to explain it... but I feel cheated here, game was fun, but there are tooooo many physical impossibilities I have seen and cheating is going on...then they put you up against higher rated players...like a 20 level would be placed up against a 125..I mean seriously? It’s like they are setting you up to lose all the time so you will spend more..after I leave this review I am deleting this rigged and cheat of a game
Addictive
by Fastdraw78 on 2017/07/20 23:54
Great game! I have loved it and made it to the 90's in player level. Despite my love for this game I have recently dropped it from 5 to 4 stars and here is why. 1) it has become impossible for me to win consistently. I understand a players skill can fluctuate especially as you move up in rank. I just don't understand how I can go from having almost 2 million in coins and winning 100,000 coin games to being unable to consistently win 500 coin games. I don't trust computer programming because as you can see with the spinning wheel, it can easily be rigged. I don't trust organizations that make money from games like 8ball pool because what's to stop them from rigging the outcome of a players consistency. 2) like others I see connectivity issues. HOWEVER, I know they come from my wifi network. When I switch to cellular internet I do no have issues. Therefore I know where the problem is. The issue I have with the programming is that if I have a network loss the game will let me continue to the point where I even make a shot. Then all of a sudden my game goes back in time erases my shot and shows my opponent that I have timed out. Very strange
Dont play this game!!! Its incredibly rigged!
by Minecart11 YouTube on 2017/11/03 18:57
In every game you play, the app decides if you win or not. If you play an all in game, they will put you up against level 150s when you are level 13 so they make sure that you lose all of your chips so you have to buy more or wait an hour for 30 chips. The daily spin and wins are rigged as well. You always land on either 150 or 250 no matter what since it always starts on the same number. Even if you play against your friends in real time, the balls will defy all laws of physics. DO NOT SPEND MONEY ON THIS GAME!!! THAT IS WHAT THEY WANT YOU TO DO. Do not buy the special cues! It costs the price you bought to “recharge the cue” to be able to put cue spin on the cue ball. There is also the most obvious evidence that it is rigged: Your balls bounce out of the pockets while the opponent’s won’t. Just install an app like GamePigeon or Pool Break Lite to play pool with your friends or online. You might think it isn’t rigged at first because thats how they bring in new players. Once you start playing more often, they will start making you lose for reasons like “potting the 8 ball” when none of the balls hit it. I have RECORDED evidence of this. If you post about it on their support fourms they will ignore you or even go as far as deleting it.
Anyway that was my rant on this terrible game.
Almost complete
by Big D 4967 on 2018/04/24 10:44
The game is very good and fun to play. What it needs to make it complete, in my opinion, is that it needs to have the ability to enter your own comments during play. You can’t have all the things I would like to say so being able to add my own would be great.
But the game is really enjoyable to play and it’s fun to play people from around the world and that checking the players profile we see what country they are from and what their win rate is and what rings they’ve won. Which I really like winning rings it’s just a shame that we really can’t wear them, that would be awesome!
If you like playing a game for free this is your game. You can spend money to get better cues and to get more coins but you can get more cues by winning games and getting gift boxes that you open in time or spend your dollar bills that you’ve acquired. But you can play without spending any real cash. Well I haven’t had to spend any yet and I’ve won 4 rings and working on number 5. All this is great fun and you can also play your friends and send friends gifts.
This WAS a good game...
by P.D.347 on 2018/03/29 20:38
I've been playing this game for a couple of years now and have really, really, liked it. Until this week. Some ppl just can't leave well enough alone. The commercial content and coin collecting aspect of it had been tolerable until the latest changes. If you want to play slot machines, and trash talk with friends, then maybe you will get some enjoyment out of it. But for the pool purist, or someone interested in actually playing an accurate computer sim of the game, keep looking. This game is now catered to the kids... A pool stick that you have to continually pay credits to recharge? Ridiculous. So sad to see the end of my favorite ipad game... Hey guys at Miniclip, how about reinvesting in making the game actually better? Instead you're just constantly inventing different ways to get another few dollars out of everyone. Also, it's a little fishy how out of my thousands of daily spins, I seem to land on $100 about 80% of the time... and, I don't EVER recall winning anything other than a thousand bucks or so on a "Scratcher." I wouldn't play these at all if I weren't forced to, so if you're going to force ppl to play, you could at least make it fair. Oh, and enough with the bazillion different pool sticks! Geeeez!
Addicting And Frustrating
by ICanWinBig.com on 2018/03/15 01:42
I spend too much time playing. It is frustrating because it seems that too many times that there are glitches that render you a loss. Like when you hit one ball, pot that ball, and it gives your turn to your opponent saying you need to hit a striped ball. Glitches like these and other seem to fade away for a bit as long as you are making purchases to play.
Why is it addicting? If you really love playing pool it is as close to the real thing as possible. However balls never leave the table other than through the pockets. The algorithms used in the game almost are undeniably similar to ones used in slot machines. If you haven't made a purchase in a while almost every game you play will be against not only higher ranked players but also to players that have an extremely high win percentage compared to yours yet at times you do seem to be unstoppable and other times it seems the only ball that goes in the pocket is the cue ball.
I play on because I'm addicted. Don't start playing unless you like addictions in your life. I keep saying to myself to delete this game forever. Maybe I will sometime but not today. 😎🤔☠️
Handicaps You to BUY!!
by Doc4772 on 2018/02/02 13:37
Terrible, suppose to be a game where a person can have fun and compete. It’s nothing but a way to earn money without charging to get the app. Example, when I first got on here, winning was easy. My shots lined up and I had no problem beating people as long as I took my time and lined the angles properly. Now that I got a taste of victory and 4 rings all the sudden the same angles don’t work. I scratch more times here than at real pool and my opponent is hard shooting, breaking a cluster and his ball is finding a pocket without a scratch, not the case for me at all, maybe in the beginning. Now down to no coins and having to wait to play the 50 coin table I am tempted to by special offers etc. I will not!! This is a really sad way to make money when they have a ton of advertising going on. Really sad that you get handicapped to lure you to spend for a stupid free game!!! I’m done with it!!
Update!!! Played the worst hit the balls as hard as he could on every turn and never scratched, and was able to pocket a rack. I play with precision and take my time, hit very lightly most of the time and I scratched 4 times not counting the break so 5. Piece of crap game that only makes me mad that I get beat by an idiot because this game is a fraud. DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME!!!
Great game but kinda upset about losing my coins!
by CalSni87 on 2018/02/10 04:01
I’ve been playing for a few weeks now and I’ve really enjoyed this game! The only complaint I have is losing my coins after winning a game and not receiving my bet coins or my winning coins back after the game has been won. This has happened quite a few times to me and is getting really frustrating. I’d really like for the developer to hook me up with my coins or something if possible, but we all know that most developers don’t read these comments so I doubt I’ll see them. If it continues to happen I’m going to have to move to a different game because building up coins and then losing them so easily is not cool at all. I’m going to hang in there for a few and see what happens. Hopefully I get all of my winnings from now on and maybe one day my coins will magically re-appear. Overall I love the game and I’m definitely addicted to it. It’s great for a free game and even better if you have the spare money to buy coins, upgrades, cues, and everything else.
Love the game..
by Adastine💕 on 2018/09/01 14:13
I love this game and I sometimes even find myself getting highly addicted to it as well! I love the options as well as being able to play with friends. I love the little mini games but I do have one dislike, I really wish you all would keep the way for us to watch videos and get cash for it! It’s incredibly hard to get cash on this game unless you buy it and I’m sorry but I’m not spending $30 on fake cash so it can disappear within a minute.. also I wish the mini games weren’t such a waste all of the time. I love playing them like I said! But I wish I could win more than 100 coins every, single, time I spin that thing. Every time, never more than 100 coins, literally. And the one time I DID win 25,000 coins, the game froze up which it never ever does so yeah that was sketchy and needless to say I think that should something that’s worked on.. but other than that I really do love the game! Keep it up and I’ll keep playing for as long as I’m alive just please try to work on a few bugs, thank you all for the making of this pool game♥️
"Lost Connection"
by gadam.7272 on 2017/10/05 03:55
Fun game. However the "lost connection" is getting to be very annoying. You make a shot lose connection and when game "reconnects" your faced with clock time running out your shot not made causing you to lose the turn. On several occasions costing me the game. For a while I believed ok yeah I lost connection but doesn't happen all the time just in certain situations. So I started thinking maybe it's the other player somehow causing the lost connection cause it doesn't happen to them. Not sure what is actually going on. Would have given 5 stars if this "lost connection" wasn't so upsetting.
Update:
Enjoying more now with the new update. Finally you can challenge in 9 ball. And you get to change the wager. Glad they listen to their customers and improve where needed.
Update: Since the new update like that are offering new pool sticks. But there seems to be a glitch since then. When I am first to break there's a pause or while in the middle of a shot.
Ok
by Shovster on 2017/10/04 21:06
I play a lot of "real" pool and I'm considered to be a good player so I speak from experience when I say although I find the game to be fun, it is in some ways not very realistic. My biggest issue is the constant scratching when there's no way it should happen, (I'm a 61% shooter but subtract all the games I've lost do to unnecessary scratches I'd be in the 70s) part of the issue is that the balls can travel way farther then on a real table, it's hard to bank 5 rails on real table but could probably go 10 rails with the game!. Another big issue is the angles a ball can be cut, there's no way to cut over 90 degrees but with the game u can make impossible cuts making playing defense much harder! Also think when the cue ball is on the rail or up against another ball you shouldn't be able to use low English like in a real game. Another thing that drives me nuts is I'm usually trying to play for 10 mil but way to often it makes me play a game for as low as a $100, when there's 4000 played surly there's a player that could play for more!,...That being said I still like to play but the game needs tweaked a little
8 ball moonlight problem!
by Dnieves on 2018/10/31 01:29
Hello 8 ball! There is a little problem we are running too! I have updated the newest update u just released and I have updated my game! One problem: Moonlight is not showing on my screen due to the update I just did! I just read ur scrimmage/post about the moonlight problem! I don’t think u realize it but , many people have updated the game due that we can’t play unless We update it! It pops up a message when u click play saying “you must update the game before continuing” which means we can’t just leave the update and play because the update is required to play the game due to ur message and system in game! It would be awesome if u can re-put the event so that we can all have it again because I think that many people have made this mistake due to ur system that you “must update the game” before playing. If you can let me know and reply what’s going to happen that would be great! Anyways thank you for making the best game possible! - David
Love/Hate this game
by Purplestickyfunk on 2018/06/08 14:19
I’ve been playing this for about a year and a half. There’s plenty of tables of varying difficulty rules. The worst part is that any time you try to play a game, it starts you off at the highest table you can afford to play. One time, I tried to swipe down to the lower tables, but it didn’t register. I was stuck playing for a large chunk of what had taken me months to accumulate. I withered down to $0 in a matter of minutes. I actually debated on deleting the app for this. The only way to be any good at this game is to obtain and use a high stat cue. Most cues require you to spend chips in order to keep their stats. But, some special ones have a free stat recharge or high stat/low recharge. I obtained one through an in-app purchase of a cue/money/chips package for $20. With it, I’ve been able to get well into the millions and passed what I had before I lost all my in-game money. The game overall is a great free purchase. I have found my heart pounding in high stakes matches. Which seems silly, being fake money and all, but it’s enjoyable.
Rigged
by InvertedMuskrat on 2018/10/29 18:44
This game is so rigged. If you have played it, you probably have won almost all of your games at the start. Once you get to the levels that you unlock Las Vegas and Jakarta, the games rigged part kicks in. You lose almost every game you play to make you want to spend money on the game so you can continue winning games like you did at the start. Literally the first match I played for the All In playlist, I was winning easily the first game, the second game I was close to winning but lost, which is ok, but then the 3rd game I got destroyed. It even does it in game modes like that. Another issue I have is that I’m not getting with anyone in America or the UK or Australia, it’s always in countries that are underdeveloped or don’t even have internet. All of these people keep winning by a long shot and I have a feeling they are bots placed to make you lose. I will have balls next to the pocket and when I hit it, the ball flies off to the other side of the table in a very bad location yet when the opponent is in a bad location and randomly hits the ball, it flies across the table hitting the rail multiple times and then they get the ball in a pocket. That’s rigged. Don’t download this game. It’s so rigged.
Rip Off
by vistorou812 on 2018/05/11 18:43
This game is a rip-off!! $$$$$$$$ you buy the coins and you will loose every game just about until you buy more!! They always pair you with appointments that are better than you!!! I have played long enough and paid $$$$$ for Legendary Boxes and have the best pool cue you can get!! On the Cue there is a aiming line that’s helps you with your shot, well today on making shots it just disappears!!!! And I never have to recharge my Cue with coins to keep it at full power!!!! I have lost millions of dollars in one day and would sweep the table and something would happen that says the other opponent was the winner!!!!!! Bull!!!! Some days you will win and other days they will make you loose every game trying to get you to buy more coins!! I will never buy another coin!!!!!!! Also the free spin that you get you will never win over $500! Don’t fall into there scheme!!!! And 8Ball Pool I hope you are ready these reviews and fix what you have screwed up!!
Be warned, this game is rigged
by WillMcCullough on 2017/12/05 02:12
Fair warning, this game is rigged to drain you of coins. Thousands of players have attempted to report this phenomenon to the developer with no luck. The most common observation is that if you win or purchase coins, you will end up with a massive losing streak. Once you find yourself losing massively, the game will offer you more coins at a discounted rate.
Many have observed that this game has bots posing as real players. They’ve proven this by looking up the profiles for the “player” only to find that they have a high win ratio and very low play time. There are tip offs for the bots. Most bots start matches with incredibly creepy positive encouragement. They will often repeat statements like “you can do it” (paraphrasing) several times in a row. If you send back chat messages, the responses never make sense.
The most major tell is that real players who’ve been around and have played several hundred games cannot achieve higher than a 40-55% win ratio. Once you begin winning, the game will unfairly match you to much higher level players or bots. The goal of this developer is to keep you buying coins regularly.
Pool cheats.
by wildman 409 on 2018/03/30 02:44
I have played this game over 2 yrs now and iam covienced that there are pool cheats that can be downloaded two win games on this site I get beat alot not because Iam a crappy pool player but because of players that download cheats two win games ive pocketed over 90 thousand balls and it seems like i can hardly win a game there are players that have only made 14 thousand balls and they are ace players and have athosands of coins but billions of coins and how do they do that ive asked this game site many times and they have never given me answer two this question so ive come two the conclusion that they could careless i dont have two have cheats two get coins or win games i consider myself a skilled pool player and I spend my hard earned money to play this game and iam getting real tired of getting cheated come on multi player lets get this game honest so if you want my opinion you’ve got it ☹️i would not advise anyone two play this dishonest game
It wasn't great.
by Louinnj on 2018/04/30 20:14
I played this game pretty consistently for a few months, and looking back, it ended up not being a great experience. Aside from the fact that the "Daily Spinner" is programmed to never give you more than 500 pool coins, you have to spend pool coins to pass-n-play with people offline, and that you're constantly bombarded with advertisements on the main menu, I really enjoyed the game! I got achievements for winning, and I went on great winning streaks, and eventually amounted to around 60k pool coins. Unfortunately though, when you hit "Play Now" it presets you to the highest match you can afford, which for me was a 50k bet. I never clicked the match, it just glitched out and chose it completely against my will out of nowhere one time. I ended up losing the match, 50k coins, and 2 months of progress. Games after that got really tough, and i ended up losing the rest of my coins to games where the other player sunk the 8ball on a break, and even a game where the slider for my cue disappeared which didn't let me make a shot.
Maybe I got really unlucky, but it was still annoying to lose 2 months of progress. Just be careful using this crazy app.

by Steven_keuker on 2017/09/16 00:07
Love the game but just letting you developers know to please issue a update to patch this bug or glitch that I and others have been experiencing so lately I have been trying to play your fun game but within 5-10 seconds of being in the app it has been booting me out but the app doesn't disappear or crash it's still active in the background and I try to get back in it again and it does the same thing over and over again and I can't play at all or even be in the app for more then seconds without this issue reoccurring my friend also has an I phone 6+ mine is a 7+ and he is experiencing the same issues I wanted to make sure that it wasn't my phone malfunctioning or overheating but this is the only app he or I have been having issues with please help thank you keep up the good work 👍👍👍 p.s. I have tried restarting my iPhone and even deleting then re downloading the app but no changes so far
1 year+ player
by Quadrunner007 on 2017/07/21 01:05
I have been playing this game for over a year, and now when I open the fan to play it will immediately knock me off of getting to play. I have spent money on it, but I got mad the other day because there opponents can quit the game when you have won, but if you try any of the stuff they get by with, it's wrong. I quit 3 games and I haven't been able to play since. Now it wants me to put a credit card number in before I can play. Can't even get the app anymore. Has to be the most roboted game I have ever seen when it comes to playing their opponents. Especially if you rank decent yourself. Might as well start a new game with a different name. Game is a joke. The higher you rank the less you have a chance to win. It's a fun game but the game is set up to make you spend money. It's really a competitive game. It definitely has game owner glitches to it. And I just keep coming back to play it.
Wow!? LOOK,it’s a GREAT game!
by DitchDigger101 on 2018/07/30 07:13
Lol reading the reviews I’m shocked to see the negatives mentioned so I’ll throw my $.02 in for free,I’ve played real pool for years and this game really is very accurate in every way not to discredit anyone’s opinion. It doesn’t cost anything,yes the may be a few shots only possible on the app but that’s only because everything is so accurate as you can imagine a quality app would be,the tables are perfectly level,cushions all react the same and the force of ur shot is always the same depending on the spin applied to the cue and although different colors and styles the felt on the tables are all consistent so spend some time to advance ur skill and level up to play higher ranks on different style tables with rules,yes for 50 coins anything goes like 9 ball. Call pocket on 8 ball,all shots,cushion shot on 8 ball,regular 9 ball and call pocket on 9 ball PLUS try out NO GUIDELINES yes this game is for real just try out ur skills for free!!! 8 BALL POOL/MINI-CLIP 👍
Not the best update.
by rhoblidnen on 2017/12/13 22:39
This is the best pool game I have played on any platform, in terms of the physics of the balls. However, I think this update is getting a bit gimmicky. I was already a bit sceptical of the VIP Points system, and the new Rings seem pointless, and are clearly just an attempt to get more people to make in-app purchases.
The worst thing, though, is the guidelines being put back into the two highest tournaments. There are already plenty of other places to play a game with guidelines, there was no need to change that. There should have been at least another two higher priced guideline free tournaments put in above them to compensate. The tournaments are no longer a challenge.
EDIT: The latest update is even more annoying. Rental fees for matches now? Really? They’re virtual coins for crap’s sake! You’re essentially just lying about the prize money amount for that table. And these annoying prize boxes that give worthless cues that you have to upgrade. It’s just bringing in all the worst bits from the less popular Miniclip games.
9 ball needs fixing
by infestedchris on 2017/10/01 01:10
I love 9 ball but i think it needs better rules. Its based on luck 100%. The thing that is so unfair about 9 ball is that it pairs you with someone that bid the same amount of coins. But I am level 19 and i get paired with people level 50+. Its unfair when people have these god sticks with time added to there stick. 9 ball is based on speed, so every shot you make chunks the timer. But people with time on their sticks get plenty of time to take there shots. Then after they take there shots there time gets almost reset entirely. Its not fair to use sticks that add time to a game that is time sensitive. Another thing that makes the games so unpleasant is that there needs to be a call 9 ball shot. Sick of games where people are just slapping balls around and just so happen they get lucky and sink the 9 ball by mistake. Its a good game mode but completely unfair and not balanced what so ever. I love 9 ball way more than 8 ball at the moment. It just pisses me off when people win by mistake.
Fun and addicting but....
by Shoemanshoe on 2017/12/13 17:17
The only thing I don't like is you have to earn points to play.. I would rather pay $3 or $5 for a good game I can play online.. This way it does make it more interesting i guess but the stupid slot thing gives you a chance to win 50,000 or more pool coins and I have tried hundreds of times and never got more then 500.. It is set to give you less and that makes this kinda bs.. What would it hurt them to give you 30,000 pool coins? I am sure many people pay for money and keep them in the green.
UPDATE because they won't stop asking me to rate it even though I already did...
The wheel thing to win money or stuff is worse now.. I have seen the thing slowing to stop I a big number and the go past it REAL slow. I would rather not even have this unfair wheel thing.i did get 1000 on it one time but most the time I get 52 or 12.... Fun game though.
UPDATE AGAIN!!They keep asking me to update so here it the newest scam they are doing. When you watch a video to get 150 coins it gives the 150 a few times and lets you keep doing it but then only gives 15 coins even though it clearly says watch a video to get 150 coins. They have also added something that you can challenge your friends, friends. It will pop up looking like you have a challenge but it is telling you someone is on line and you can challenge them.
I still play the game and like it but all this extra crap makes it worse. I would GLADLY pay $5 to have no ads and no pop up crap!
Loads of semi-realistic fun
by eleaders on 2018/12/09 18:04
Update. The chat feature has been added for Facebook and friends. I can run Facebook messenger to speak with my Facebook friends but why not inigtate with Facebook messenger fully and why not make the table a little smaller and allow chatting with everybody.
Overall I am very impressed with the program.
I do NOT like the recharge cue feature. It does not represent real pool....at all. Though I do understand the need to build revenue. How about this. Just allow cue upgrades.
There are several ways this could be better. Add a chat and make it so that users could choose who they wish to play. Show friends status and add an invite button to the friends screen. Also, set up clubs. Lync this app to MSN chat and Skype so that users can talk while they play. Users would pay for these features. For chat auto translate.
Update...there is now a way for friends to play with one another and while playing...chat. Look for the "Challenge friends" button on the opening screen. It is crude (chat) but works.
Mini Clip consider expanding chat during normal gameplay to make it more user friendly.
Don't reinvent the wheel. Use Skype. In sure microsoft would allow it in exchange for advertising.
How about a Windows 10 app? I'd love to play it on my touchscreen laptop. The shockwave web interface leaves a lot to be desired.
Poor sportsmanship
by Warnertm on 2018/02/10 06:11
You need to set it up so people can't run the clock down when they can't make a shot during timed games by just shooting the cue in a pocket waiting for you to free their ball. Also when you get booted from a game because a glitch in the game and/or internet you shouldn’t loose your bet. I'm adding to this again, both myself and my girlfriend both have watched ur stupid videos a few times and haven't received our coins. What a joke. The more I play the less I like the way this game is set up. It freezes up and makes you loose your turn. Just more BS. Adding to this again, I was in the middle of a tournament and made my shot. But of course your dumb glitches took my turn and gave it to the other player. My shot was legal hitting my ball first and sinking it. What a joke, people play this for fun but never waste your hard earned cash on this company's games. Adding to this again, I’m playing the 20M game and win I win it only gives 19M it has done this multiple times and I’m guessing I just noticed but it has probably been take 5% on all the large bet games this whole time. You guys are a scam
Pool ball
by Cool cowgirls on 2018/11/24 18:11
One day I went on App Store and saw this game and got it and glad to get it. I am thankful and blessed that I got this game. I got my iPad for Christmas and thankful I got the iPad to play this game. I win a lot of people but the point is to have fun not win a bunch of people. I am happy to win but I would rather have this game than just have other games. I would pay if I had to buy this game. I would use my iTunes gift card if I needed to! There is a few things I don’t really like or get but a fun game I am happy to get this game. Who ever thought of this game good thinking. I like it. MAN I cannot say how much I like this game! Thank you for making and thinking of this game I think it is one of the best games it is one of my favorites that why I did the five stars I would recommend it to everyone I Could. I would tell my family about it even my cousins. Thanks again good thinking!!!
Fun game, but glitches
by Baj71 on 2017/07/19 14:33
I play this game ALL the time. The only complaint I have is with a few glitches.. it seems like the rules that they give apply sometimes but not other times, even on the same level. For example, if I accidentally don't hit a ball hard enough and it doesn't hit the wall, the other person gets ball in hand. If the other person does the same thing in the same game, I don't get ball in hand. Super weird. Also, I just played a game where I had a hard time getting my shot on my ball, but I did get it there. I ended up making two of my balls, but the other player got ball in hand because it said I didn't hit my own ball, which I did. Also, sometimes the stick is very hard to balance and it wants to go in all sorts of direction. PLEASE fix these glitches because it's very frustrating and causes me to lose games. All in all, I do enjoy this game and will continue to play.
“All In”
by #HuntingLove on 2018/08/11 18:41
Okay, so y’all, I’m really mad right now. Last night I wanted to play another game of pool because I love the game. At the very beginning after I pressed ‘1 on 1’, I scrolled all the way to the beginning which was 1 passed the part where you pay 50 coins. That USED to say “Place your bet” or something like that, but no, it changed to ‘All In’ where you bet ALL OF YOUR COINS for a chance to win all of the other person’s coins as well. I was on level 14 and had around 67,000 coins in my account. So, I played against someone on level 201 with about 100,000 coins. I immediately knew i wasn’t going to win 2 games in a row against this person. So I lost 67k JUST by pressing the wrong button/choice. And a suggestion for the game-makers: have a button that says “Are you sure” in the case of betting all you have. I got mad and deleted the app and only have 1 regret: read everything before you pressed the button!!
The game allows cheating
by Shawnsbabygirl on 2018/01/20 11:30
The game allows cheating with no way of reporting a player that cheats
Cheats I mean like the game I just did I picked my ball and all Of a sudden the ball was back on the table and the cheater that used a after market cheat program got to shoot not only shoot it gives them ball in hand as well in this week alone it has happened at lease 3 out of 10 games and the makers r doing nothing about it and they have nothing in place to report but yet they make us recharger pool sticks and want us to buy in game purchases just so we can be cheated out of our money because there just looking to scam u in the game if ur smart u won’t download the game until they fix these problems or a way to report the player that’s cheating and it’s mostly people from outta the United States that do it and 90% of ur games r with them so there pretty much supporting the cheating
Great game a must have
by Thatguy229 on 2018/06/06 18:00
If you like pool then you’ll love this game. The other reviews complain about luck/skill or crashing. Well the games that don’t cost much to get into, those are the ones ppl don’t care if they lose or not. They’ll knock the mess out of it and sink it in a pocket they wasn’t shooting for. Kinda aggravating but that’s pool on cheap tables. Play the tables you have to call all pockets and that eliminate that. They are high dollar but you play with other skilled players. The connection issue, me personally never had a problem but I only play in WiFi so I say it’s service provider and signal issue for them. Try it out you’ll be hooked cause it’s highly addictive. I get burned out on occasion, can’t win a game for nothing seems like. I put the game down come back couple days later and back to winning again. This game I awwwwwsummmm great job miniclip.
Loved it for years until I needed support...
by Victim #473 on 2017/08/12 11:54
All that play understand the quality of the experience. However, it seems as if the developers have decided to retire and continue to collect on in-app purchases. Imagine enjoying an awesome game for years... Then all of a sudden, your points don't show up in the leader board or weekly competitions that earn you in-app cash. You would assume reporting this bug would solve it, but unfortunately this is an issue other users run into. Either way, you report this within Miniclip, and it's crickets for weeks. (Still haven't heard anything). Honestly, service and support is what earns my business.
Oh yeah, and btw, I land on a measly $100 every day I spin. Oddly enough, the chances of me landing on the same plot of the wheel day in and day out makes the powerball look like a 50/50 raffle.
**Update: It looks like the issue resolved itself. I'm adding a star for this, but still not been contacted as the automated response said I would.
Rigged (funny how this name was taken. Shows I’m not the only one)
by qpdjrogtbodh on 2018/05/10 11:57
It’s glaringly obvious once you reach the 20s level, you can’t win. Even with clear shots, the physics rejects my shots. You also end up playing players (likely bots. All foreign. I haven’t played an American in months) that just hit the ball willy nilly but magically something goes in for them. One time he just aimed aimlessly and 3 balls went in for him. And why is it I literally always play someone higher rated than me? That’s interesting because somehow that means they play someone ranked lower (me). Hmm. Magically overnight I go from winning many games in a row to consistently losing now, while using same tactics. I’d rather lose knowing my opponent was skilled which is not the case here. My opponents now are foreigners who just aimlessly strike the ball but somehow always a ball goes in. The AI is glaring.
The objective obviously leads to one being frustrated and spend money for a cue with highest guidelines or need more coins. Do not ever pay money for this game. That can’t be stressed enough.
It’s funny how they ask for a nickname. Rigged, BS, good bye were all taken.
Highly addictive
by Smittyjo8 on 2018/02/22 13:54
Been playing this game for well over a year. It’s only the rare venue that you can pocket a ball without calling your shot. It’s funny that Miniclip advertises this game as having realistic physics or whatever they say. Cause that’s what has always amazed me about this game. The physics are perfect and I can’t even imagine how that’s done. All I know is that the game is perfect. And if you don’t want to spend any money, you don’t have to and can still have fun playing the game for as long as you want. However if you want to try and gather some “super pool sticks”, you can spend a little money every once in awhile. The only thing I don’t like about the game is that I dont understand how they pick who gets to break. Oftentimes I’ll find that my opponent breaks for up to 5 times in a row. But I never get to break more than a couple times in a row.
I like the game just a few draw backs
by DracoNuben on 2018/08/19 02:05
I love the game just a few things that make me mad when I play.
1. Sometimes when I shoot with low time left, it will show my shot, then when all balls stop, and the game will freeze. Then it will a the opponents turn and the balls will reset to before I shot.
Sometimes it takes a bit to lineup the shot, and I use a que with extra time for that reason,(extra time) and to be jipped out of a potential win cuz of that detours me from the game.
2. You need to make it to where after 2 turns of not shooting(no movement) the other player should auto win.
I had a game where the 8ball and one of each of our balls were touching it, and there wasn’t a clean shot for either of us. So the person to shoot and break up the balls would lose. It was my opponent turn and he just sat there and did nothing, so I did the same, and it went back in forth like that for 5 rounds, before I gave up and just took a shot.
Of course I lost cuz I didn’t make my shot and he won, when I was the one who set up the balls like that to keep my opponent from make it the shot.
Like in real life you don’t get a timer, so taking shots to block the opponent is strategy, and this game diminishes any form of strategy cuz the opponent can just skip his turn and make you take the hard shot. It’s jus unfair and makes me not want to play the game.
8 Ball Pool
by LewGri on 2017/11/15 18:26
I love the game. However, I have hit shots that have been negated, with the turn being given over to the opponent, causing me to lose games. Also, while believing I am playing an opponent, I was really playing the computer, under a opponents name. With this, the opponent's shot time is always wound down to the last seconds. Moreover, time has run punt on an opponent's shot, but his late shot will still count. While, if I run the clock-shot down to the limit, my shot is forfeited. When I am winning a game, the app always unnecessarily delays my shots. With these defects, it makes this game very unpleasant & stressful. However, I've seen no other pool app as realistic as this one. It's a shame such a virtually dynamic champion of an app/game, is ruined by the obvious disadvantages set-forth by the producers.
Cheats on shots. Places balls u pot, back on table, & when u pot 8-ball on breaks, places it back on table.
This is the most fun pool game, but it will (noticeably) cheat you out of games. If there was a more fun pool game, I would ditch this one in a heartbeat.
Pretty good
by RJtucson on 2018/02/20 23:17
It’s a fun game but it constantly has errors with the coins. If you win you often don’t win the prize money. If you have the coins it sometimes won’t let you play because it says you’re out of coins. Then sometimes it just forgets all your coins and gives you zero. This last one got me to quit because you can’t play any good tables without some coin.
It also has tons of random bugs. Often you can’t aim properly. It cue will move right then left all while trying to move the same way. The direction you need to shoot isn’t possible. Even when it’s an open table with nothing blocking. Other times it aims just fine. The shot power is totally random because it will release the shot while sliding down the power bar. Often just tapping the cue and losing your shot without shooting. Sometimes it just shoots randomly while you are aiming. If they fixed these things it would be a good game. I don’t think they really care about it though, it’s been like this a long time.
This game used to be fun
by Hans33steelers on 2018/02/06 19:13
This game is changing rapidly and becoming more and more pay to play. Now if you want to do anything you have to pay real money. Also I am quite sure that they use an algorithm that attempts to deplete the coin balances of players that have bought coins because as soon as you start getting a decent amount of coins, you all of a sudden can’t join a game unless it is against someone 100+ levels higher than you and with a 75% win percentage. Also thinks like breaking... I have used he same break in this game forever, but as soon as I paid, this break stopped potting balls. There have also been violations of the games physics, and bounces that just do not make sense and end up costing me a turn or even the game. Coincidentally, once this happens you start getting bombarded even more with the “Here’s a new deal! Buy more coins to level up!”
So long story short, either don’t get the game or do not buy any coins. Because as soon as your name is in their system as someone who is willing to pay, your games will be rigged.
Come on miniclip.
Update has a minor flaw
by CriticizingGuy on 2018/01/13 02:08
Enjoyed the game until I updated with the latest version. Had no idea why, with this new version, I had pool table rails and pockets that didn’t line up correctly. It was only after I disabled zoom on my phone that the game became usable again. Please make an update to the update that accounts for phones with zoom enabled. The old version worked flawlessly, except for the glitches that have already been discussed in numerous other reviews. Do this and I’ll change my review accordingly.
As of now, I’m out $10 because I lost all my chips fiddle-farting with this glitch.
Update: Thanks for fixing the glitch. Now, could someone please work on fixing the timer? It seems as though I (and my opponents) don’t always get the allotted time to shoot a ball. This is very annoying at times, especially when it boils down to the last shot. Thanks!
Great game.
by Butterhumms on 2017/11/23 01:38
This is an excellent game and I would recommend it if you like playing pool. I have it both on my phone and my IPad. Sometimes it is frustrating but that's only when I shoot like crap but when I'm on it's great as with anything. When you play 1 on 1 it matches you with someone who is very close, if not the same level as yourself. In a tournament it pits you against people of all different levels which is fine. Overall I am addicted. I have been playing this game since it came out. Anyone who tries to compare this game to real life pool is out of their mind but for learning a few basics it’s fine. Playing with English on this game gives you a good indication of what it would do on a real table. I play this and real pool on leagues and tournaments. Just don’t be like some people and expect an app to imitate real life.
Get IT!
by Lk ny on 2017/07/17 18:33
Awesome awesome game there is one glitch, I just played a game , 200 coins , came down to my last ball, I made. The shot and also made the 8 ball, the game should have been mine but I lost the 200 coins, I sunk my ball first and planned to sink the 8 ball to, you don't have to call the pocket in this game. But otherwise it's the best game I've played and takes skill! One thing I don't like is people can leave you hanging for some reason,I can't nor do I want to, but while my shot clock is running , there's is stopped and you wait and wait and then they come back with no lost shot time! I do believe there are some cheaters out there!
Just played a game with a player named Maicol , when it came my turn to shoot there was no pull back windows to draw the cue, so I ran out of time lost the game with no chance to shoot, Glitch ? Or cheat?
dont spend mone.... is rigged
by dwaterbase on 2018/03/09 00:23
I play a littel real pool so I understand the logic of it, and I know is an app but this game is ridiculously rigged, once I bought a .99 cent thing, the game change completly, like I will put the 8 ball in to win with a little tap and i will scratch in the oposite side of the table with a impossible mathematics shoy.... another time, all balls in, like no ball on the table but the 8, mi oponent missed his shot and in my turn it says tha hittin the 8 was ilegal(🚫), I ignore it, put the 8 in, didn't scratch, and my oponent won. in many other times my oponent will hit the ball hard and put two or three balls in with an impossible shot, like violating all laws of physics, angles, trajectories and trigonometry. is not even a luck based game because never happens to me. this are just a few of the many many incidents that this happened and amost always my oponent is a gest or somebody with an odd name an no picture or a cartoon pictur.... for the developer you owe me money or something to even the odds ( you know what I mean )
Trash.
by ImProbablyMad on 2017/10/22 22:30
Literally until you get thousands of coins, the game is a slop-fest where kids with no skill win games that they shouldn’t. The in-game physics change COMPLETELY from game to game. Zero consistency. I have been reduced to using the “beginner cue” because no matter what power level I select to shoot a shot with, there is zero consistency using a different cue from game to game. In addition, I lost 12 games in a row because I wasn’t allowed to break a SINGLE TIME. As a result, my opponents ran the table without me be allowed to shoot. 12 games? Without breaking? Come on. I grind and grind to get coins, then at no fault of my own, because I’m not allowed to break and run the table for 12 games in a row, I lose 99% of my coins. Really. If you have installed, uninstall. If you haven’t downloaded yet, don’t waste your time. The ENTIRE team responsible for the coding in this game should be fired. Literally trash physics coding, trash matchmaking, and trash equality algorithms. Just trash. Don’t waste your time. Miniclip is a company full of absolute idiots who shouldn’t have jobs. Literal trash human beings.

All things scam
by Johnpyro on 2019/01/20 14:45
It’s a fun game till you play. Players cheat a lot. The game is set up to have non realistic play and ball physics. This game is set up to pay real money for everything. Of course you can watch a video for free cash or coins but after watching the said videos you may get the cash or have to wait 24 hrs to try again. If they offer you a free incentive, don’t count on it. If you happen to play a game and doing well, don’t worry your opponent may step away for a few seconds. The time they are away takes away from your shot. So yes you will lose, so much for fair and honest game

Played this game for many weeks found that it is not very realistic and you often find random outcomes for simple things such as a ball not moving what so ever if you hit it hard it enough
Good game ever

Thanks for this beautiful game, I would suggest a suggestion in order to develop this game for the most beautiful .. I would appreciate if you make a direct conversation with the opponent to give a nice feature on this mass game. And you shall die

by Casterline on 2019/01/20 02:54
It is a fine way to waste 5 mins but my problem is there are a few cheaters and it is obvious that they are cheating. Good chance if they lvl 20 or higher and they using the starting que, they probably cheating. One guy was so obvious he only took like less than a second to aim each shot, and some where really impressive. But when you do beat a cheater with real skill it dose make you feel good.

If you are halfway decent, and win fairly, the software makes you scratch out of the blue, often resulting in a loss. What’s the point?
😤
by tpin82 on 2019/01/20 01:33
I’ve been experiencing a multitude of issues. Sometimes when I win , my coins will go down , sometimes when I win it says loading and then says ran out of time then the other person wins even tho I won?? I’ve spent money on coins in this game and experienced these problems. Almost like it’s designed for you to spend money then lose it even if you win.

Great pool game w/one small caveat
by (w on 2019/01/19 23:11
Physics are there, fun is there, depth is there. All in all a great pool game. However, when players switch to another app, it makes the other player wait in the middle of his run for them to come back. This can really rule off your rhythm, and the higher level players know this and use it to throw you off. If a player leaves, it shouldn’t interrupt the game. If that player doesn’t come back in time for their turn, then they lose their turn. Please change this, it’s so annoying.

This game lies
by Mdub5 on 2019/01/19 21:19
Beware! This game claims to give you “free” dollars if you sign up for different sweepstakes and what not. In reality, you are signing up for a lifetime of junk mail and spam, and you don’t get the “free” money for in game purchases. Don’t trust this game, it is very dishonest!
Don’t buy in app purchases
by jsggjndff on 2019/01/19 21:04
The game itself is a lot of fun, it’ll make you feel like a better player than you actually are. Tough at first getting to know the quarks of how the balls move around.
At first I bought a few coins and noticed I did better at higher levels only to lose them all soon thereafter. I noticed that I was potting the 8 ball and the Q ball on critical high level games, that was not normal.
I highly recommend the game for pure fun but beware of getting caught up in the in app purchases!!!

Needs Serious Improvement
by feng_shui YT on 2019/01/19 19:34
The “free rewards” system is broken. Half of the time, when I want to claim my free cash for the day, the game doesn’t give me the cash, but the timer is still set. What this means is I have to wait another day more for what I waited a day before for.
In a match, I tend to want to hit the cue ball at the maximum power allowed. Occasionally, this backfires and the cue ball is barely hit at all. This is angering, especially when all of your coins are at stake.
The spin feature is somewhat broken as well. I set the cue ball for max backspin, but when I hit the cue ball, it decides to go forwards rather than the direction I had wanted it to go prior.
In all, I like this game, but the issues listed brings the game’s enjoyment down.

by nhmann81 on 2019/01/19 18:51
Good game ...most of the time! I make a shot & for whatever reason I have to either Make the shot again or it says I ran outta time for no reason at all. Granite sometimes it will pause the game saying that The connection is slow even though I’m sitting in my living room with a solid Wi-Fi connection and then when it comes back to the game it says I ran out of time??? I’ve lost a lot of games because of these issues & it’s getting old!!! I’ll be looking for a different game if it does it one more time , in which , it inevitably will so ...

by Boogie_Sparrow on 2019/01/19 16:33
Only because the amount of crap people deal with when it comes to time. 7 times now I’ve “ran out of time” when after my previous shot I’m sure I had more than 10 seconds. Very disappointing and I lose big games because of it. What is going on. I am very upset.

Game freezes a lot. Over populated with constant annoying pay advertising. There’s no experience matching. If your vs opponent leaves the game you’re stuck waiting for a minute + for the results.
PLus I think it’s a way of cheating you out of a win if you’re wanting a quick game and in a hurry.

by all5points on 2019/01/18 00:58
If you are competitive at all do not play this game. It’s based on building points and they’re trying to upsell you. I noticed I won a ton of games up front but once I would get to a certain point level weird things start happening. Things like the cue ball going in a natural directions so that you scratch. I even noticed a few times where the cue ball would be slowing down and then speed up real quick to scratch. My theory is that they get you hooked and then make you lose every game until you lose all your points and have to buy more.

In Moscow at the end you have to “call a pocket” to win and I hit the 8 ball inside the pocket I chose but the cue ball went inside a different pocket so I ended up losing because I scored my last ball and the opponents ball at the same time so I just got robbed and it is DUMB

by Imminent Storm on 2019/01/17 21:33
The game is entertaining and is a nice pool game that pairs up players well so people don’t get eaten alive by wallet warriors. My 2 complaints are the game can pig out on your data & the video rewards don’t always payout after you watch them. The data gorging is irrelevant to watching videos. I’ve burned 40 MB just logging once. If you restrict it to only WiFi or you have unlimited you’re fine but the video rewards not always paying out is irritating

8 ball pool is a fun game but what is stupid is that if I hit a ball on its side when I’m on the other side of the pool table from the ball I hit it with full force and it moves an inch but if my opponent does the same thing and it goes for like a mile also if I pit the 8 when I’m supposed to and like 3 after I do that the cue ball goes in to my opponent wins

Best pool on the net, but rudeness is common with their canned messages for conversation! Not to mention the occasional x rated avatars (don't see them much on ipad now), demonic images, and names! And now terrorist style symbols of swords and death. It's really scary that there are so many people who identify with demons, and evil! Mostly people just play, but often are rude! Not where I would want my kids playing! For adults only! And now it is all about money. Constant pop ups trying to sell silly game pieces. $20 a month to play on the ”pro” tables. Many years ago I saw they make 25 million on this game alone, and that was before all the buy this pop ups.
Best Pool Game ...
by Jon&Jen72 on 2018/04/29 05:15
I’ve played yet. OK it’s the first pool game I’ve downloaded but I doubt there’s a better one out there. Free version has a discreet ad crawler at the bottom of your screen but it doesn’t interfere with your view, It starts out with only 8 Ball available but you quickly unlock 9 Ball too. Game graphics are excellent. Ball physics are pretty accurate overall. You can even apply English to your shot to draw or curve the cue ball to help set up your next shot. My only complaint would be that your “shot clock” (the time you have to take each shot) is like 15 seconds +/- which is long enough for your opponent to cheat by laying down a ruler on his phone to line up a perfect shot. The opponents I get on 9 Ball are always ridiculously good. Still the game has tons of cues, rings, money and special locations to unlock which keeps you interested. Best part is that you can advance up through the ranks without spending a dime of real money. Anyone who gives this game a bad review probably works for a competitor’s company. Or they’re just one of those Mr. Complainy-Pants Debbie Downer Troll types who run around online looking to criticize everything. Those people are angry about their own lives and their reviews should not be given serious consideration. Kinda like food critics.
Glitches or intentional?
by SampsonD on 2017/10/12 21:08
I like the different game goals (rings) and the look of different tables and options it gives, but other than that I’m not impressed. One problem is it doesn’t match you with players in your “ranking or experience”. A beginner may end up with an opponent that has been classified as a pro or better, depending on how long they’ve been playing. Also too many interruptions when playing with challenger banners or wanting you to challenge your FB friends. The cue stick charges don’t last through a game if you have a bad break then you may have to recharge more than once for consistent shots and that’s in addition to placing a bet. The balls sometimes can hang half over a pocket to drop then it jolts back towards the table, but the cue can too often roll with ease for a scratch. It’s just a bit fishy when you AND your opponents ball should have dropped but jolts back from the hole. There are a few more minor issues that are annoying like not being able to type your own text for chat. I’d rather it was emojis than some of the stupid pretext messages and then you have to buy more if you want to add some. Shows a lot of greed. Plus it’s anybody’s guess as to who is going to break. If you play 5 games in a row with a different player each game you may not get to break on any of those even if you lost previously. All of this is even after purchasing the app. 🙄
Fun
by Backspinforce on 2018/07/04 10:22
I have played this game for years. If you take your time and play the games based on coins within your means it is fun. Nobody likes to lose but is addictive. With 8 & 9 ball and then tournaments, play different ones when you have made bad shots and lost or want to extend your fun. I do get mad at times like everyone else but if you are playing low coin games you can have lots of fun and then can add your messages to create more stress so if it good luck or trash talk all goes both ways back and forth. You get free coins every day and can watch videos for more too. Like any other game when you get mad or bored give it a break for a couple days and come back to it. I have played this game for fun when traveling or at a doctors office waiting and connection is important but at home you can play friends and message each other in the game which makes it more fun. I switch among 8&9 ball and tournaments with different coin values and even though I do lose when I thought I wasn’t it still give new life when you lost and then you finally win again. Probably one of my overall favorite apps too so give it a try for a while if you like pool!
Cheats you of time & money
by ImaUserNoMore on 2018/06/07 13:47
Although this game can be enjoyable when working properly, it often has what it labels as “connection slow” issues. If you tap on a profile during this event, you will see the message “updating.” When this happens and it finishes its update, you could potentially be losing time leaving you no time to aim and shoot causing you to lose your turn. This has often caused players to lose the game & money if you pay for any additional coins. It makes it appear that your connection is slow but in reality the games’ network is overburdened. This is happening more frequently than when I first started playing. There are other minor issues which aren’t worth mentioning. But the so called “slow connection” issue is the worst and why I keep rating it with 3 stars.
UPDATE: After reading some other reviews, I agree that there are bots especially when chat comments like Never Give Up are used when it makes no sense. I agree with seems that most players are in countries other than my own and skill levels not matched. I agree that it cheats you out of money and algorithyms used seem to cause you to lose. There seems to be lack of support but increase in glitches. What I don’t get is why it’s still labeled as the Editor’s Choice. Therefore I’m downgrading the rating to 2 stars.
Ok game
by Indyglf on 2017/11/24 15:39
It’s an ok game. Usually just play to pass time while sitting around. Game constantly wants you to buy in app purchases, not going to happen. Why would anyone spend their money to buy coins not like you’re winning real money. Your never going to win any decent amount of coins on your free daily spin because of course they immediately give you a chance to buy another spin. I sometimes wonder if they even give you the little bit of coins you do win because the game hides your total amount when you spin so unless you remember to check your total before you spin you never know if you get the actual coins. Game has some annoying glitches as well, like when you put a ball right in front of a pocket and the app moves the ball back away from it. This happens every game. Another annoying glitch is if you hit your last ball in and the 8 ball in on the same shot it gives the win to your opponent this should not be the case especially when your last ball goes in long before the 8 ball drops. Of course the main goal of this game is to make the developers loads of money so they are going to do everything in their power to get you to spend more money. Have never made any in app purchases and never will.
8 Ball Pool
by Katieball88 on 2018/01/25 02:54
By far the best game I’ve ever played. I started playing this game in 2011, stopped because I had forgot about it and then started it back up and everyday when I get off of work and get home I sit down and play to wind down and have a good time. I hardly ever win, (I mean my percentage is lower than 35%! Lol), but I still look forward to it everyday. I’m surprised that people have constantly stated that there is glitches and issues. I have played this game for years, across many different platforms and versions, NEVER HAVE I HAD ANY ISSUES, when the connection is having issues, it is my understanding that it is the internet connection of myself or my opponent, and in this kind of situation if you wait it out then you will become the winner at the end of time out. I assume that both parties are assumed winners and I think that is a great way to deal with any issues among players. I’m assuming that the people who complain are just sore losers, and can’t be ok with accepting a loss. I think it’s fun either way win or lose, but I do think that I should be better by now with all the time I have played haha.
This game is RIGGED
by LorenzoGThomas on 2018/01/19 07:32
I gave it 2 stars because used to enjoy playing it. But once I started to jump on some of the deals (.99 cents - 1.99) things changed. I started getting cheated out of games. There is no way I will be able to explain all that has happened for people to get an understanding of what I mean. I just can’t understand the physical logic of how I can be “right next” to the 8 ball on the last shot (say bottom left pocket) and I would literally just “tap” that ball..I mean literally JUST TAP it and that cue ball would bounce 2 rails and scratch on me on the opposite end of the table...there was not that much power put into the shot for that to have happened and yet it has happened multiple times over and over and over...please understand me when I say I TAPPED that ball, I mean I moved that cue stick the shortest amount possible...no one will get it so I will stop trying to explain it... but I feel cheated here, game was fun, but there are tooooo many physical impossibilities I have seen and cheating is going on...then they put you up against higher rated players...like a 20 level would be placed up against a 125..I mean seriously? It’s like they are setting you up to lose all the time so you will spend more..after I leave this review I am deleting this rigged and cheat of a game
Addictive
by Fastdraw78 on 2017/07/20 23:54
Great game! I have loved it and made it to the 90's in player level. Despite my love for this game I have recently dropped it from 5 to 4 stars and here is why. 1) it has become impossible for me to win consistently. I understand a players skill can fluctuate especially as you move up in rank. I just don't understand how I can go from having almost 2 million in coins and winning 100,000 coin games to being unable to consistently win 500 coin games. I don't trust computer programming because as you can see with the spinning wheel, it can easily be rigged. I don't trust organizations that make money from games like 8ball pool because what's to stop them from rigging the outcome of a players consistency. 2) like others I see connectivity issues. HOWEVER, I know they come from my wifi network. When I switch to cellular internet I do no have issues. Therefore I know where the problem is. The issue I have with the programming is that if I have a network loss the game will let me continue to the point where I even make a shot. Then all of a sudden my game goes back in time erases my shot and shows my opponent that I have timed out. Very strange
Dont play this game!!! Its incredibly rigged!
by Minecart11 YouTube on 2017/11/03 18:57
In every game you play, the app decides if you win or not. If you play an all in game, they will put you up against level 150s when you are level 13 so they make sure that you lose all of your chips so you have to buy more or wait an hour for 30 chips. The daily spin and wins are rigged as well. You always land on either 150 or 250 no matter what since it always starts on the same number. Even if you play against your friends in real time, the balls will defy all laws of physics. DO NOT SPEND MONEY ON THIS GAME!!! THAT IS WHAT THEY WANT YOU TO DO. Do not buy the special cues! It costs the price you bought to “recharge the cue” to be able to put cue spin on the cue ball. There is also the most obvious evidence that it is rigged: Your balls bounce out of the pockets while the opponent’s won’t. Just install an app like GamePigeon or Pool Break Lite to play pool with your friends or online. You might think it isn’t rigged at first because thats how they bring in new players. Once you start playing more often, they will start making you lose for reasons like “potting the 8 ball” when none of the balls hit it. I have RECORDED evidence of this. If you post about it on their support fourms they will ignore you or even go as far as deleting it.
Anyway that was my rant on this terrible game.
Almost complete
by Big D 4967 on 2018/04/24 10:44
The game is very good and fun to play. What it needs to make it complete, in my opinion, is that it needs to have the ability to enter your own comments during play. You can’t have all the things I would like to say so being able to add my own would be great.
But the game is really enjoyable to play and it’s fun to play people from around the world and that checking the players profile we see what country they are from and what their win rate is and what rings they’ve won. Which I really like winning rings it’s just a shame that we really can’t wear them, that would be awesome!
If you like playing a game for free this is your game. You can spend money to get better cues and to get more coins but you can get more cues by winning games and getting gift boxes that you open in time or spend your dollar bills that you’ve acquired. But you can play without spending any real cash. Well I haven’t had to spend any yet and I’ve won 4 rings and working on number 5. All this is great fun and you can also play your friends and send friends gifts.
This WAS a good game...
by P.D.347 on 2018/03/29 20:38
I've been playing this game for a couple of years now and have really, really, liked it. Until this week. Some ppl just can't leave well enough alone. The commercial content and coin collecting aspect of it had been tolerable until the latest changes. If you want to play slot machines, and trash talk with friends, then maybe you will get some enjoyment out of it. But for the pool purist, or someone interested in actually playing an accurate computer sim of the game, keep looking. This game is now catered to the kids... A pool stick that you have to continually pay credits to recharge? Ridiculous. So sad to see the end of my favorite ipad game... Hey guys at Miniclip, how about reinvesting in making the game actually better? Instead you're just constantly inventing different ways to get another few dollars out of everyone. Also, it's a little fishy how out of my thousands of daily spins, I seem to land on $100 about 80% of the time... and, I don't EVER recall winning anything other than a thousand bucks or so on a "Scratcher." I wouldn't play these at all if I weren't forced to, so if you're going to force ppl to play, you could at least make it fair. Oh, and enough with the bazillion different pool sticks! Geeeez!
Addicting And Frustrating
by ICanWinBig.com on 2018/03/15 01:42
I spend too much time playing. It is frustrating because it seems that too many times that there are glitches that render you a loss. Like when you hit one ball, pot that ball, and it gives your turn to your opponent saying you need to hit a striped ball. Glitches like these and other seem to fade away for a bit as long as you are making purchases to play.
Why is it addicting? If you really love playing pool it is as close to the real thing as possible. However balls never leave the table other than through the pockets. The algorithms used in the game almost are undeniably similar to ones used in slot machines. If you haven't made a purchase in a while almost every game you play will be against not only higher ranked players but also to players that have an extremely high win percentage compared to yours yet at times you do seem to be unstoppable and other times it seems the only ball that goes in the pocket is the cue ball.
I play on because I'm addicted. Don't start playing unless you like addictions in your life. I keep saying to myself to delete this game forever. Maybe I will sometime but not today. 😎🤔☠️
Handicaps You to BUY!!
by Doc4772 on 2018/02/02 13:37
Terrible, suppose to be a game where a person can have fun and compete. It’s nothing but a way to earn money without charging to get the app. Example, when I first got on here, winning was easy. My shots lined up and I had no problem beating people as long as I took my time and lined the angles properly. Now that I got a taste of victory and 4 rings all the sudden the same angles don’t work. I scratch more times here than at real pool and my opponent is hard shooting, breaking a cluster and his ball is finding a pocket without a scratch, not the case for me at all, maybe in the beginning. Now down to no coins and having to wait to play the 50 coin table I am tempted to by special offers etc. I will not!! This is a really sad way to make money when they have a ton of advertising going on. Really sad that you get handicapped to lure you to spend for a stupid free game!!! I’m done with it!!
Update!!! Played the worst hit the balls as hard as he could on every turn and never scratched, and was able to pocket a rack. I play with precision and take my time, hit very lightly most of the time and I scratched 4 times not counting the break so 5. Piece of crap game that only makes me mad that I get beat by an idiot because this game is a fraud. DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME!!!
Great game but kinda upset about losing my coins!
by CalSni87 on 2018/02/10 04:01
I’ve been playing for a few weeks now and I’ve really enjoyed this game! The only complaint I have is losing my coins after winning a game and not receiving my bet coins or my winning coins back after the game has been won. This has happened quite a few times to me and is getting really frustrating. I’d really like for the developer to hook me up with my coins or something if possible, but we all know that most developers don’t read these comments so I doubt I’ll see them. If it continues to happen I’m going to have to move to a different game because building up coins and then losing them so easily is not cool at all. I’m going to hang in there for a few and see what happens. Hopefully I get all of my winnings from now on and maybe one day my coins will magically re-appear. Overall I love the game and I’m definitely addicted to it. It’s great for a free game and even better if you have the spare money to buy coins, upgrades, cues, and everything else.
Love the game..
by Adastine💕 on 2018/09/01 14:13
I love this game and I sometimes even find myself getting highly addicted to it as well! I love the options as well as being able to play with friends. I love the little mini games but I do have one dislike, I really wish you all would keep the way for us to watch videos and get cash for it! It’s incredibly hard to get cash on this game unless you buy it and I’m sorry but I’m not spending $30 on fake cash so it can disappear within a minute.. also I wish the mini games weren’t such a waste all of the time. I love playing them like I said! But I wish I could win more than 100 coins every, single, time I spin that thing. Every time, never more than 100 coins, literally. And the one time I DID win 25,000 coins, the game froze up which it never ever does so yeah that was sketchy and needless to say I think that should something that’s worked on.. but other than that I really do love the game! Keep it up and I’ll keep playing for as long as I’m alive just please try to work on a few bugs, thank you all for the making of this pool game♥️
"Lost Connection"
by gadam.7272 on 2017/10/05 03:55
Fun game. However the "lost connection" is getting to be very annoying. You make a shot lose connection and when game "reconnects" your faced with clock time running out your shot not made causing you to lose the turn. On several occasions costing me the game. For a while I believed ok yeah I lost connection but doesn't happen all the time just in certain situations. So I started thinking maybe it's the other player somehow causing the lost connection cause it doesn't happen to them. Not sure what is actually going on. Would have given 5 stars if this "lost connection" wasn't so upsetting.
Update:
Enjoying more now with the new update. Finally you can challenge in 9 ball. And you get to change the wager. Glad they listen to their customers and improve where needed.
Update: Since the new update like that are offering new pool sticks. But there seems to be a glitch since then. When I am first to break there's a pause or while in the middle of a shot.
Ok
by Shovster on 2017/10/04 21:06
I play a lot of "real" pool and I'm considered to be a good player so I speak from experience when I say although I find the game to be fun, it is in some ways not very realistic. My biggest issue is the constant scratching when there's no way it should happen, (I'm a 61% shooter but subtract all the games I've lost do to unnecessary scratches I'd be in the 70s) part of the issue is that the balls can travel way farther then on a real table, it's hard to bank 5 rails on real table but could probably go 10 rails with the game!. Another big issue is the angles a ball can be cut, there's no way to cut over 90 degrees but with the game u can make impossible cuts making playing defense much harder! Also think when the cue ball is on the rail or up against another ball you shouldn't be able to use low English like in a real game. Another thing that drives me nuts is I'm usually trying to play for 10 mil but way to often it makes me play a game for as low as a $100, when there's 4000 played surly there's a player that could play for more!,...That being said I still like to play but the game needs tweaked a little
8 ball moonlight problem!
by Dnieves on 2018/10/31 01:29
Hello 8 ball! There is a little problem we are running too! I have updated the newest update u just released and I have updated my game! One problem: Moonlight is not showing on my screen due to the update I just did! I just read ur scrimmage/post about the moonlight problem! I don’t think u realize it but , many people have updated the game due that we can’t play unless We update it! It pops up a message when u click play saying “you must update the game before continuing” which means we can’t just leave the update and play because the update is required to play the game due to ur message and system in game! It would be awesome if u can re-put the event so that we can all have it again because I think that many people have made this mistake due to ur system that you “must update the game” before playing. If you can let me know and reply what’s going to happen that would be great! Anyways thank you for making the best game possible! - David
Love/Hate this game
by Purplestickyfunk on 2018/06/08 14:19
I’ve been playing this for about a year and a half. There’s plenty of tables of varying difficulty rules. The worst part is that any time you try to play a game, it starts you off at the highest table you can afford to play. One time, I tried to swipe down to the lower tables, but it didn’t register. I was stuck playing for a large chunk of what had taken me months to accumulate. I withered down to $0 in a matter of minutes. I actually debated on deleting the app for this. The only way to be any good at this game is to obtain and use a high stat cue. Most cues require you to spend chips in order to keep their stats. But, some special ones have a free stat recharge or high stat/low recharge. I obtained one through an in-app purchase of a cue/money/chips package for $20. With it, I’ve been able to get well into the millions and passed what I had before I lost all my in-game money. The game overall is a great free purchase. I have found my heart pounding in high stakes matches. Which seems silly, being fake money and all, but it’s enjoyable.
Rigged
by InvertedMuskrat on 2018/10/29 18:44
This game is so rigged. If you have played it, you probably have won almost all of your games at the start. Once you get to the levels that you unlock Las Vegas and Jakarta, the games rigged part kicks in. You lose almost every game you play to make you want to spend money on the game so you can continue winning games like you did at the start. Literally the first match I played for the All In playlist, I was winning easily the first game, the second game I was close to winning but lost, which is ok, but then the 3rd game I got destroyed. It even does it in game modes like that. Another issue I have is that I’m not getting with anyone in America or the UK or Australia, it’s always in countries that are underdeveloped or don’t even have internet. All of these people keep winning by a long shot and I have a feeling they are bots placed to make you lose. I will have balls next to the pocket and when I hit it, the ball flies off to the other side of the table in a very bad location yet when the opponent is in a bad location and randomly hits the ball, it flies across the table hitting the rail multiple times and then they get the ball in a pocket. That’s rigged. Don’t download this game. It’s so rigged.
Rip Off
by vistorou812 on 2018/05/11 18:43
This game is a rip-off!! $$$$$$$$ you buy the coins and you will loose every game just about until you buy more!! They always pair you with appointments that are better than you!!! I have played long enough and paid $$$$$ for Legendary Boxes and have the best pool cue you can get!! On the Cue there is a aiming line that’s helps you with your shot, well today on making shots it just disappears!!!! And I never have to recharge my Cue with coins to keep it at full power!!!! I have lost millions of dollars in one day and would sweep the table and something would happen that says the other opponent was the winner!!!!!! Bull!!!! Some days you will win and other days they will make you loose every game trying to get you to buy more coins!! I will never buy another coin!!!!!!! Also the free spin that you get you will never win over $500! Don’t fall into there scheme!!!! And 8Ball Pool I hope you are ready these reviews and fix what you have screwed up!!
Be warned, this game is rigged
by WillMcCullough on 2017/12/05 02:12
Fair warning, this game is rigged to drain you of coins. Thousands of players have attempted to report this phenomenon to the developer with no luck. The most common observation is that if you win or purchase coins, you will end up with a massive losing streak. Once you find yourself losing massively, the game will offer you more coins at a discounted rate.
Many have observed that this game has bots posing as real players. They’ve proven this by looking up the profiles for the “player” only to find that they have a high win ratio and very low play time. There are tip offs for the bots. Most bots start matches with incredibly creepy positive encouragement. They will often repeat statements like “you can do it” (paraphrasing) several times in a row. If you send back chat messages, the responses never make sense.
The most major tell is that real players who’ve been around and have played several hundred games cannot achieve higher than a 40-55% win ratio. Once you begin winning, the game will unfairly match you to much higher level players or bots. The goal of this developer is to keep you buying coins regularly.
Pool cheats.
by wildman 409 on 2018/03/30 02:44
I have played this game over 2 yrs now and iam covienced that there are pool cheats that can be downloaded two win games on this site I get beat alot not because Iam a crappy pool player but because of players that download cheats two win games ive pocketed over 90 thousand balls and it seems like i can hardly win a game there are players that have only made 14 thousand balls and they are ace players and have athosands of coins but billions of coins and how do they do that ive asked this game site many times and they have never given me answer two this question so ive come two the conclusion that they could careless i dont have two have cheats two get coins or win games i consider myself a skilled pool player and I spend my hard earned money to play this game and iam getting real tired of getting cheated come on multi player lets get this game honest so if you want my opinion you’ve got it ☹️i would not advise anyone two play this dishonest game
It wasn't great.
by Louinnj on 2018/04/30 20:14
I played this game pretty consistently for a few months, and looking back, it ended up not being a great experience. Aside from the fact that the "Daily Spinner" is programmed to never give you more than 500 pool coins, you have to spend pool coins to pass-n-play with people offline, and that you're constantly bombarded with advertisements on the main menu, I really enjoyed the game! I got achievements for winning, and I went on great winning streaks, and eventually amounted to around 60k pool coins. Unfortunately though, when you hit "Play Now" it presets you to the highest match you can afford, which for me was a 50k bet. I never clicked the match, it just glitched out and chose it completely against my will out of nowhere one time. I ended up losing the match, 50k coins, and 2 months of progress. Games after that got really tough, and i ended up losing the rest of my coins to games where the other player sunk the 8ball on a break, and even a game where the slider for my cue disappeared which didn't let me make a shot.
Maybe I got really unlucky, but it was still annoying to lose 2 months of progress. Just be careful using this crazy app.
👻👻👻👻👻
by Steven_keuker on 2017/09/16 00:07
Love the game but just letting you developers know to please issue a update to patch this bug or glitch that I and others have been experiencing so lately I have been trying to play your fun game but within 5-10 seconds of being in the app it has been booting me out but the app doesn't disappear or crash it's still active in the background and I try to get back in it again and it does the same thing over and over again and I can't play at all or even be in the app for more then seconds without this issue reoccurring my friend also has an I phone 6+ mine is a 7+ and he is experiencing the same issues I wanted to make sure that it wasn't my phone malfunctioning or overheating but this is the only app he or I have been having issues with please help thank you keep up the good work 👍👍👍 p.s. I have tried restarting my iPhone and even deleting then re downloading the app but no changes so far
1 year+ player
by Quadrunner007 on 2017/07/21 01:05
I have been playing this game for over a year, and now when I open the fan to play it will immediately knock me off of getting to play. I have spent money on it, but I got mad the other day because there opponents can quit the game when you have won, but if you try any of the stuff they get by with, it's wrong. I quit 3 games and I haven't been able to play since. Now it wants me to put a credit card number in before I can play. Can't even get the app anymore. Has to be the most roboted game I have ever seen when it comes to playing their opponents. Especially if you rank decent yourself. Might as well start a new game with a different name. Game is a joke. The higher you rank the less you have a chance to win. It's a fun game but the game is set up to make you spend money. It's really a competitive game. It definitely has game owner glitches to it. And I just keep coming back to play it.
Wow!? LOOK,it’s a GREAT game!
by DitchDigger101 on 2018/07/30 07:13
Lol reading the reviews I’m shocked to see the negatives mentioned so I’ll throw my $.02 in for free,I’ve played real pool for years and this game really is very accurate in every way not to discredit anyone’s opinion. It doesn’t cost anything,yes the may be a few shots only possible on the app but that’s only because everything is so accurate as you can imagine a quality app would be,the tables are perfectly level,cushions all react the same and the force of ur shot is always the same depending on the spin applied to the cue and although different colors and styles the felt on the tables are all consistent so spend some time to advance ur skill and level up to play higher ranks on different style tables with rules,yes for 50 coins anything goes like 9 ball. Call pocket on 8 ball,all shots,cushion shot on 8 ball,regular 9 ball and call pocket on 9 ball PLUS try out NO GUIDELINES yes this game is for real just try out ur skills for free!!! 8 BALL POOL/MINI-CLIP 👍
Not the best update.
by rhoblidnen on 2017/12/13 22:39
This is the best pool game I have played on any platform, in terms of the physics of the balls. However, I think this update is getting a bit gimmicky. I was already a bit sceptical of the VIP Points system, and the new Rings seem pointless, and are clearly just an attempt to get more people to make in-app purchases.
The worst thing, though, is the guidelines being put back into the two highest tournaments. There are already plenty of other places to play a game with guidelines, there was no need to change that. There should have been at least another two higher priced guideline free tournaments put in above them to compensate. The tournaments are no longer a challenge.
EDIT: The latest update is even more annoying. Rental fees for matches now? Really? They’re virtual coins for crap’s sake! You’re essentially just lying about the prize money amount for that table. And these annoying prize boxes that give worthless cues that you have to upgrade. It’s just bringing in all the worst bits from the less popular Miniclip games.
9 ball needs fixing
by infestedchris on 2017/10/01 01:10
I love 9 ball but i think it needs better rules. Its based on luck 100%. The thing that is so unfair about 9 ball is that it pairs you with someone that bid the same amount of coins. But I am level 19 and i get paired with people level 50+. Its unfair when people have these god sticks with time added to there stick. 9 ball is based on speed, so every shot you make chunks the timer. But people with time on their sticks get plenty of time to take there shots. Then after they take there shots there time gets almost reset entirely. Its not fair to use sticks that add time to a game that is time sensitive. Another thing that makes the games so unpleasant is that there needs to be a call 9 ball shot. Sick of games where people are just slapping balls around and just so happen they get lucky and sink the 9 ball by mistake. Its a good game mode but completely unfair and not balanced what so ever. I love 9 ball way more than 8 ball at the moment. It just pisses me off when people win by mistake.
Fun and addicting but....
by Shoemanshoe on 2017/12/13 17:17
The only thing I don't like is you have to earn points to play.. I would rather pay $3 or $5 for a good game I can play online.. This way it does make it more interesting i guess but the stupid slot thing gives you a chance to win 50,000 or more pool coins and I have tried hundreds of times and never got more then 500.. It is set to give you less and that makes this kinda bs.. What would it hurt them to give you 30,000 pool coins? I am sure many people pay for money and keep them in the green.
UPDATE because they won't stop asking me to rate it even though I already did...
The wheel thing to win money or stuff is worse now.. I have seen the thing slowing to stop I a big number and the go past it REAL slow. I would rather not even have this unfair wheel thing.i did get 1000 on it one time but most the time I get 52 or 12.... Fun game though.
UPDATE AGAIN!!They keep asking me to update so here it the newest scam they are doing. When you watch a video to get 150 coins it gives the 150 a few times and lets you keep doing it but then only gives 15 coins even though it clearly says watch a video to get 150 coins. They have also added something that you can challenge your friends, friends. It will pop up looking like you have a challenge but it is telling you someone is on line and you can challenge them.
I still play the game and like it but all this extra crap makes it worse. I would GLADLY pay $5 to have no ads and no pop up crap!
Loads of semi-realistic fun
by eleaders on 2018/12/09 18:04
Update. The chat feature has been added for Facebook and friends. I can run Facebook messenger to speak with my Facebook friends but why not inigtate with Facebook messenger fully and why not make the table a little smaller and allow chatting with everybody.
Overall I am very impressed with the program.
I do NOT like the recharge cue feature. It does not represent real pool....at all. Though I do understand the need to build revenue. How about this. Just allow cue upgrades.
There are several ways this could be better. Add a chat and make it so that users could choose who they wish to play. Show friends status and add an invite button to the friends screen. Also, set up clubs. Lync this app to MSN chat and Skype so that users can talk while they play. Users would pay for these features. For chat auto translate.
Update...there is now a way for friends to play with one another and while playing...chat. Look for the "Challenge friends" button on the opening screen. It is crude (chat) but works.
Mini Clip consider expanding chat during normal gameplay to make it more user friendly.
Don't reinvent the wheel. Use Skype. In sure microsoft would allow it in exchange for advertising.
How about a Windows 10 app? I'd love to play it on my touchscreen laptop. The shockwave web interface leaves a lot to be desired.
Poor sportsmanship
by Warnertm on 2018/02/10 06:11
You need to set it up so people can't run the clock down when they can't make a shot during timed games by just shooting the cue in a pocket waiting for you to free their ball. Also when you get booted from a game because a glitch in the game and/or internet you shouldn’t loose your bet. I'm adding to this again, both myself and my girlfriend both have watched ur stupid videos a few times and haven't received our coins. What a joke. The more I play the less I like the way this game is set up. It freezes up and makes you loose your turn. Just more BS. Adding to this again, I was in the middle of a tournament and made my shot. But of course your dumb glitches took my turn and gave it to the other player. My shot was legal hitting my ball first and sinking it. What a joke, people play this for fun but never waste your hard earned cash on this company's games. Adding to this again, I’m playing the 20M game and win I win it only gives 19M it has done this multiple times and I’m guessing I just noticed but it has probably been take 5% on all the large bet games this whole time. You guys are a scam
Pool ball
by Cool cowgirls on 2018/11/24 18:11
One day I went on App Store and saw this game and got it and glad to get it. I am thankful and blessed that I got this game. I got my iPad for Christmas and thankful I got the iPad to play this game. I win a lot of people but the point is to have fun not win a bunch of people. I am happy to win but I would rather have this game than just have other games. I would pay if I had to buy this game. I would use my iTunes gift card if I needed to! There is a few things I don’t really like or get but a fun game I am happy to get this game. Who ever thought of this game good thinking. I like it. MAN I cannot say how much I like this game! Thank you for making and thinking of this game I think it is one of the best games it is one of my favorites that why I did the five stars I would recommend it to everyone I Could. I would tell my family about it even my cousins. Thanks again good thinking!!!
Fun game, but glitches
by Baj71 on 2017/07/19 14:33
I play this game ALL the time. The only complaint I have is with a few glitches.. it seems like the rules that they give apply sometimes but not other times, even on the same level. For example, if I accidentally don't hit a ball hard enough and it doesn't hit the wall, the other person gets ball in hand. If the other person does the same thing in the same game, I don't get ball in hand. Super weird. Also, I just played a game where I had a hard time getting my shot on my ball, but I did get it there. I ended up making two of my balls, but the other player got ball in hand because it said I didn't hit my own ball, which I did. Also, sometimes the stick is very hard to balance and it wants to go in all sorts of direction. PLEASE fix these glitches because it's very frustrating and causes me to lose games. All in all, I do enjoy this game and will continue to play.
“All In”
by #HuntingLove on 2018/08/11 18:41
Okay, so y’all, I’m really mad right now. Last night I wanted to play another game of pool because I love the game. At the very beginning after I pressed ‘1 on 1’, I scrolled all the way to the beginning which was 1 passed the part where you pay 50 coins. That USED to say “Place your bet” or something like that, but no, it changed to ‘All In’ where you bet ALL OF YOUR COINS for a chance to win all of the other person’s coins as well. I was on level 14 and had around 67,000 coins in my account. So, I played against someone on level 201 with about 100,000 coins. I immediately knew i wasn’t going to win 2 games in a row against this person. So I lost 67k JUST by pressing the wrong button/choice. And a suggestion for the game-makers: have a button that says “Are you sure” in the case of betting all you have. I got mad and deleted the app and only have 1 regret: read everything before you pressed the button!!
The game allows cheating
by Shawnsbabygirl on 2018/01/20 11:30
The game allows cheating with no way of reporting a player that cheats
Cheats I mean like the game I just did I picked my ball and all Of a sudden the ball was back on the table and the cheater that used a after market cheat program got to shoot not only shoot it gives them ball in hand as well in this week alone it has happened at lease 3 out of 10 games and the makers r doing nothing about it and they have nothing in place to report but yet they make us recharger pool sticks and want us to buy in game purchases just so we can be cheated out of our money because there just looking to scam u in the game if ur smart u won’t download the game until they fix these problems or a way to report the player that’s cheating and it’s mostly people from outta the United States that do it and 90% of ur games r with them so there pretty much supporting the cheating
Great game a must have
by Thatguy229 on 2018/06/06 18:00
If you like pool then you’ll love this game. The other reviews complain about luck/skill or crashing. Well the games that don’t cost much to get into, those are the ones ppl don’t care if they lose or not. They’ll knock the mess out of it and sink it in a pocket they wasn’t shooting for. Kinda aggravating but that’s pool on cheap tables. Play the tables you have to call all pockets and that eliminate that. They are high dollar but you play with other skilled players. The connection issue, me personally never had a problem but I only play in WiFi so I say it’s service provider and signal issue for them. Try it out you’ll be hooked cause it’s highly addictive. I get burned out on occasion, can’t win a game for nothing seems like. I put the game down come back couple days later and back to winning again. This game I awwwwwsummmm great job miniclip.
Loved it for years until I needed support...
by Victim #473 on 2017/08/12 11:54
All that play understand the quality of the experience. However, it seems as if the developers have decided to retire and continue to collect on in-app purchases. Imagine enjoying an awesome game for years... Then all of a sudden, your points don't show up in the leader board or weekly competitions that earn you in-app cash. You would assume reporting this bug would solve it, but unfortunately this is an issue other users run into. Either way, you report this within Miniclip, and it's crickets for weeks. (Still haven't heard anything). Honestly, service and support is what earns my business.
Oh yeah, and btw, I land on a measly $100 every day I spin. Oddly enough, the chances of me landing on the same plot of the wheel day in and day out makes the powerball look like a 50/50 raffle.
**Update: It looks like the issue resolved itself. I'm adding a star for this, but still not been contacted as the automated response said I would.
Rigged (funny how this name was taken. Shows I’m not the only one)
by qpdjrogtbodh on 2018/05/10 11:57
It’s glaringly obvious once you reach the 20s level, you can’t win. Even with clear shots, the physics rejects my shots. You also end up playing players (likely bots. All foreign. I haven’t played an American in months) that just hit the ball willy nilly but magically something goes in for them. One time he just aimed aimlessly and 3 balls went in for him. And why is it I literally always play someone higher rated than me? That’s interesting because somehow that means they play someone ranked lower (me). Hmm. Magically overnight I go from winning many games in a row to consistently losing now, while using same tactics. I’d rather lose knowing my opponent was skilled which is not the case here. My opponents now are foreigners who just aimlessly strike the ball but somehow always a ball goes in. The AI is glaring.
The objective obviously leads to one being frustrated and spend money for a cue with highest guidelines or need more coins. Do not ever pay money for this game. That can’t be stressed enough.
It’s funny how they ask for a nickname. Rigged, BS, good bye were all taken.
Highly addictive
by Smittyjo8 on 2018/02/22 13:54
Been playing this game for well over a year. It’s only the rare venue that you can pocket a ball without calling your shot. It’s funny that Miniclip advertises this game as having realistic physics or whatever they say. Cause that’s what has always amazed me about this game. The physics are perfect and I can’t even imagine how that’s done. All I know is that the game is perfect. And if you don’t want to spend any money, you don’t have to and can still have fun playing the game for as long as you want. However if you want to try and gather some “super pool sticks”, you can spend a little money every once in awhile. The only thing I don’t like about the game is that I dont understand how they pick who gets to break. Oftentimes I’ll find that my opponent breaks for up to 5 times in a row. But I never get to break more than a couple times in a row.
I like the game just a few draw backs
by DracoNuben on 2018/08/19 02:05
I love the game just a few things that make me mad when I play.
1. Sometimes when I shoot with low time left, it will show my shot, then when all balls stop, and the game will freeze. Then it will a the opponents turn and the balls will reset to before I shot.
Sometimes it takes a bit to lineup the shot, and I use a que with extra time for that reason,(extra time) and to be jipped out of a potential win cuz of that detours me from the game.
2. You need to make it to where after 2 turns of not shooting(no movement) the other player should auto win.
I had a game where the 8ball and one of each of our balls were touching it, and there wasn’t a clean shot for either of us. So the person to shoot and break up the balls would lose. It was my opponent turn and he just sat there and did nothing, so I did the same, and it went back in forth like that for 5 rounds, before I gave up and just took a shot.
Of course I lost cuz I didn’t make my shot and he won, when I was the one who set up the balls like that to keep my opponent from make it the shot.
Like in real life you don’t get a timer, so taking shots to block the opponent is strategy, and this game diminishes any form of strategy cuz the opponent can just skip his turn and make you take the hard shot. It’s jus unfair and makes me not want to play the game.
8 Ball Pool
by LewGri on 2017/11/15 18:26
I love the game. However, I have hit shots that have been negated, with the turn being given over to the opponent, causing me to lose games. Also, while believing I am playing an opponent, I was really playing the computer, under a opponents name. With this, the opponent's shot time is always wound down to the last seconds. Moreover, time has run punt on an opponent's shot, but his late shot will still count. While, if I run the clock-shot down to the limit, my shot is forfeited. When I am winning a game, the app always unnecessarily delays my shots. With these defects, it makes this game very unpleasant & stressful. However, I've seen no other pool app as realistic as this one. It's a shame such a virtually dynamic champion of an app/game, is ruined by the obvious disadvantages set-forth by the producers.
Cheats on shots. Places balls u pot, back on table, & when u pot 8-ball on breaks, places it back on table.
This is the most fun pool game, but it will (noticeably) cheat you out of games. If there was a more fun pool game, I would ditch this one in a heartbeat.
Pretty good
by RJtucson on 2018/02/20 23:17
It’s a fun game but it constantly has errors with the coins. If you win you often don’t win the prize money. If you have the coins it sometimes won’t let you play because it says you’re out of coins. Then sometimes it just forgets all your coins and gives you zero. This last one got me to quit because you can’t play any good tables without some coin.
It also has tons of random bugs. Often you can’t aim properly. It cue will move right then left all while trying to move the same way. The direction you need to shoot isn’t possible. Even when it’s an open table with nothing blocking. Other times it aims just fine. The shot power is totally random because it will release the shot while sliding down the power bar. Often just tapping the cue and losing your shot without shooting. Sometimes it just shoots randomly while you are aiming. If they fixed these things it would be a good game. I don’t think they really care about it though, it’s been like this a long time.
This game used to be fun
by Hans33steelers on 2018/02/06 19:13
This game is changing rapidly and becoming more and more pay to play. Now if you want to do anything you have to pay real money. Also I am quite sure that they use an algorithm that attempts to deplete the coin balances of players that have bought coins because as soon as you start getting a decent amount of coins, you all of a sudden can’t join a game unless it is against someone 100+ levels higher than you and with a 75% win percentage. Also thinks like breaking... I have used he same break in this game forever, but as soon as I paid, this break stopped potting balls. There have also been violations of the games physics, and bounces that just do not make sense and end up costing me a turn or even the game. Coincidentally, once this happens you start getting bombarded even more with the “Here’s a new deal! Buy more coins to level up!”
So long story short, either don’t get the game or do not buy any coins. Because as soon as your name is in their system as someone who is willing to pay, your games will be rigged.
Come on miniclip.
Update has a minor flaw
by CriticizingGuy on 2018/01/13 02:08
Enjoyed the game until I updated with the latest version. Had no idea why, with this new version, I had pool table rails and pockets that didn’t line up correctly. It was only after I disabled zoom on my phone that the game became usable again. Please make an update to the update that accounts for phones with zoom enabled. The old version worked flawlessly, except for the glitches that have already been discussed in numerous other reviews. Do this and I’ll change my review accordingly.
As of now, I’m out $10 because I lost all my chips fiddle-farting with this glitch.
Update: Thanks for fixing the glitch. Now, could someone please work on fixing the timer? It seems as though I (and my opponents) don’t always get the allotted time to shoot a ball. This is very annoying at times, especially when it boils down to the last shot. Thanks!
Great game.
by Butterhumms on 2017/11/23 01:38
This is an excellent game and I would recommend it if you like playing pool. I have it both on my phone and my IPad. Sometimes it is frustrating but that's only when I shoot like crap but when I'm on it's great as with anything. When you play 1 on 1 it matches you with someone who is very close, if not the same level as yourself. In a tournament it pits you against people of all different levels which is fine. Overall I am addicted. I have been playing this game since it came out. Anyone who tries to compare this game to real life pool is out of their mind but for learning a few basics it’s fine. Playing with English on this game gives you a good indication of what it would do on a real table. I play this and real pool on leagues and tournaments. Just don’t be like some people and expect an app to imitate real life.
Get IT!
by Lk ny on 2017/07/17 18:33
Awesome awesome game there is one glitch, I just played a game , 200 coins , came down to my last ball, I made. The shot and also made the 8 ball, the game should have been mine but I lost the 200 coins, I sunk my ball first and planned to sink the 8 ball to, you don't have to call the pocket in this game. But otherwise it's the best game I've played and takes skill! One thing I don't like is people can leave you hanging for some reason,I can't nor do I want to, but while my shot clock is running , there's is stopped and you wait and wait and then they come back with no lost shot time! I do believe there are some cheaters out there!
Just played a game with a player named Maicol , when it came my turn to shoot there was no pull back windows to draw the cue, so I ran out of time lost the game with no chance to shoot, Glitch ? Or cheat?
dont spend mone.... is rigged
by dwaterbase on 2018/03/09 00:23
I play a littel real pool so I understand the logic of it, and I know is an app but this game is ridiculously rigged, once I bought a .99 cent thing, the game change completly, like I will put the 8 ball in to win with a little tap and i will scratch in the oposite side of the table with a impossible mathematics shoy.... another time, all balls in, like no ball on the table but the 8, mi oponent missed his shot and in my turn it says tha hittin the 8 was ilegal(🚫), I ignore it, put the 8 in, didn't scratch, and my oponent won. in many other times my oponent will hit the ball hard and put two or three balls in with an impossible shot, like violating all laws of physics, angles, trajectories and trigonometry. is not even a luck based game because never happens to me. this are just a few of the many many incidents that this happened and amost always my oponent is a gest or somebody with an odd name an no picture or a cartoon pictur.... for the developer you owe me money or something to even the odds ( you know what I mean )
Trash.
by ImProbablyMad on 2017/10/22 22:30
Literally until you get thousands of coins, the game is a slop-fest where kids with no skill win games that they shouldn’t. The in-game physics change COMPLETELY from game to game. Zero consistency. I have been reduced to using the “beginner cue” because no matter what power level I select to shoot a shot with, there is zero consistency using a different cue from game to game. In addition, I lost 12 games in a row because I wasn’t allowed to break a SINGLE TIME. As a result, my opponents ran the table without me be allowed to shoot. 12 games? Without breaking? Come on. I grind and grind to get coins, then at no fault of my own, because I’m not allowed to break and run the table for 12 games in a row, I lose 99% of my coins. Really. If you have installed, uninstall. If you haven’t downloaded yet, don’t waste your time. The ENTIRE team responsible for the coding in this game should be fired. Literally trash physics coding, trash matchmaking, and trash equality algorithms. Just trash. Don’t waste your time. Miniclip is a company full of absolute idiots who shouldn’t have jobs. Literal trash human beings.
