8 Ball Pool Challenge Game Modes
Whether you are new to the game or have been playing the pool table for a long time, this game has enough levels to help you get into shape step by step.
Easy Mode – A gentle start
- For those who are new to the game or just want to unwind.
- The computer hits the ball like it is in a beginner's class, it is easy to miss the cue.
- Ideal for practicing aiming, measuring power and learning how to control.
Normal Mode – Hit For Real, Think For Real
- A medium level, the AI knows how to play, knows how to place the ball skillfully.
- If you are not careful, the machine's "play for fun" shots will turn into a series of "missing the ball".
- A balance between entertainment and competition, suitable for time-limited breaks.
Hard Mode – Where The Club, Where The Nerve
- This is where the AI becomes a master, hitting the ball like it has GPS.
- One small mistake and you see your ball drifting into the hole without having time to do anything.
- For those who believe in skill (and a little bit of recklessness).
A Little Tip From A "Rookie" Expert
- In Hard Mode, don't be greedy for balls - play strategically, aim for easy balls.
- When adding spin (English), remember to try it in Practice mode first. Otherwise, "cue ball goes first" and you'll cry.
- Don't hit with all your strength - there are shots that only need to be gentle but at the right angle to get the absolute score.
How To Play
- Drag the cue: Use the mouse to aim, then drag it back to “power up”. The longer you drag, the stronger the shot.
- Release your hand, boom!: Release the mouse to hit the shot. The ball runs smoothly, the physics is surprisingly accurate.
