Official description

Stroke a mean cue and you might just work your way to the big time in the Pocket Competition. Execute consecutive shots, sink by numerical order and perform amazing trick shots such as massés and jumps for a chance to earn additional points or shots. If you manage to sink a ball in a pocket marked with a star, you’ll get a chance for bonuses. Test your billiard skills in two great modes: Pocket offers the traditional 16-ball game, and 9-Ball is a more contemporary version of the sport.
