Description

Showcase Pool is an arcade style pool game based on the popular billiards variant.

It allows you to take part in a best of 1, 3 or 5 frame game of pool. Venues are based on types of places you can find in real life, such as diners and a beach, but in an inflated and overblown style.

Owing to its arcade physics, the ball is handled differently, not bouncing off cushions fully and interacting with other balls differently.
