Description

The return of arcade pool from the creator of Really Bad Chess and Flipflop Solitaire.
Pocket-Run Pool combines 8-ball pool with the thrill of a chasing the perfect highscore.
In Pocket-Run, your goal is to sink all the balls, but where and when you sink them is what matters most!
With each pocketed ball, you're awarded points based on the pocket you sunk. So sink carefully, but watch out, with each miss or scratch you lose a life — run out before you finish the table and it's game over.
Compete against yourself, the world, or the bank in a variety of thrilling game modes!
Can you make the perfect pocket-run?
Arcade pool is back!

------A WORD FROM THE DEVELOPER
I've always loved pool, and when I got my first iPhone years ago, the world of digital pool games opened up to me.
There are certainly a lot of options out there, but finding a simple and enjoyable single-player pool game was harder than I expected. I found one that I enjoyed, but after playing it extensively I found it too easy to beat the computer every time. Suddenly the problem with pool hit me — when you play against a computer in a physics simulation, you're literally playing against a god... By which I mean, either the computer is going easy on you (for a reason), or it's playing a perfect game and taking all your money.
It dawned on me that if I wanted a good single player pool game, I'd have to make a new kind of pool — a variant that doesn't need a computer opponent, that's built around the notion of scoring and improving, of taking risks, and of presenting unique and interesting challenges.
Pocket-Run Pool is the game I came up with, I hope you enjoy it!

Pocket Run Pool Reviews

Fun, but too fixed

THE ACKERMAN on

United States

Didn’t know balls could just stop on a dime once they get close to the pocket.? And this must be a NIKE cue ball because that thing is live

Great idea, awful execution

Podcast Experter on

United States

Needs more control over the ball, back spin and so on Risk reward balance is bad Some challenges are too easy and some I’ve never even come close to accomplish. Not that it’s too difficult, it’s just luck

Previously played, deleted, re-downloaded again

Zoomhut on

United States

Screen name: zoomhut Hello, Is there a way to combine my old stats with my new stats if I have just recently re-downloaded the app again after a year not playing? My stats have reset since I’ve started playing again. Love the game! Thx, Zoomhut

No sound

LiberatedAtom on

United States

Have had the game maybe a week and the sound stopped working. Deleted then reinstalled. Has anyone else had this problem? Could the developer chime in?

DOPE

Ariannnnn2111 on

United States

this one’s going crazy

Works ok, needs a replay and alternative game plays

AppleTVSucks on

United States

The pros - Easy to pick up. The physics seem pretty good but not great. The cons - no replay (redo) If your sense of what should have been the trajectory does not match the game’s, there should be a way to test it out again. Also, needs a full rack of balls. Uses less than 15 - why? After using it for a while I’m finding it frustrating and the scoring limiting. Would like a way to score for continuous runs rather than simply trying to get a ball in the 10x pocket.

Don’t bother. TRASH THIS DOG !!!

The #1 Man !! on

United States

WHY WONT APPLE DROP THIS DOG THAT IS OLDER THAN COVID AND WONT FOLLOW RULES ?? NOT A GOOD LOOK FOR APPLE. An aged game with no updates because they won’t agree to the rules. That alone is reason enough. Don’t encourage grifters.

I love this game

Dillasaysgo on

United States

So much fun and very relaxing. I love the very smart cue system too. Feels more natural for playing pool on iOS.

"next ad will be in 3 games"

slowpytr on

United States

Literally next game: another ad

Doesn’t work on iPad mini

college professor on

United States

Hasn’t been updated in over two years.
