Quite possibly the most realistic Snooker game to come to any gaming platform, working closely with Michaela Tabb the world’s most famous Snooker and Pool referee Big Head Games have crafted the ultimate cue sports simulation, with easy to pickup and play controls and months of gameplay as you fight through a pro player’s career.
Some very nice polish, great sounds and a good atmosphere! But the mechanics are horrible.
There's no skill or dexterity involved in controlling the power of each shot - simply a slider. You pick the spin position, pick the power and then click the 'Take Shot' button. It's not spontaneous or exciting.
There's no hotkeys either, all commands are activated with mouse clicks only.
It feels very dumbed down and as if it was designed for a touch/phone interface.
This game was very disappointing as it has the framework in place for a great snooker/pool game, but the momentum, fluidity and pace of the game is handicapped by the interface and poor choice of game mechanics.
Ultimately I had very little fun and after a couple of hours I've had to uninstall it.
