CUE
CLUB
Stunning 2D
Arcade Pool, Snooker & Billiards Game!
Cue Club is a comprehensive and highly
playable pool and snooker simulation. Preferring an overhead view of the table.
Cue
Club allows you to play the entire game using only the mouse. This makes the
game instantly playable and highly addictive. With a choice of different table
designs and a healthy selection of games (UK 8 Ball, US 8 Ball, 9 Ball,
Snooker, Killer and Speed Pool), there's plenty to keep you occupied. Also
thrown in is a handy practice mode, which is an excellent environment to test
out the stunningly accurate physics, and hone your ball control skills. Side,
top, back spin and swerve can all be applied to great effect, enabling you to
pull off some incredible shots.
You can even get rid of the cue altogether and just hurl the
balls around with the mouse! Luckily, a replay option is included which will
let you save all your best shots to show your mates later.
Developed by Bulldog Interactive, Cue Club features a
plethora of options that help it stand out from the crowd. First among these is
the 'virtual chat' feature, which allows the player to interact with their
digital opponents courtesy of some sophisticated Artificial Intelligence. This
feature has been used to great potential, with the game taking you through 8
different chat rooms, varying from the darkened 'Basement' to the hedonistic
'Penthouse.'
