Description
Pool is a 1 - 2 player billiards game for the 8-bit Atari.
Played from a top-down perspective, the player moves a crosshair, which controls the direction the white ball is shot. A meter on the left side of the screen determines the strength of the shot. There are 6 pockets, and each game starts with a break. There is a practice mode, where a single player can sink which balls they like. There is also an 8-ball, which is a 2-player game, and tournament, which counts scratches.
