This game just can fit you any mood. Snooker has
only the merits of pool (we excluded all the imperfections on purpose)!
Algorithm of the game is a mystery similar to that of the life;
Novelty and dynamism of shooter & pool mix captivate;
Possibility to take part in the International online tournament;
Wonderful vivid graphics, pleasing music, terrific special effects;
4 levels of difficulty - every player will definitely find the one
that suits him personally;
Bubble Snooker is developed in 2D+ style with alpha-channel, dynamically
calculated light and shadows. The particle engine was employed in the form
of exploding bubbles in order to reinforce the effect of balls removal from
the table. The game is controlled both by mouse (stylus) or from the keyboard.
On the Pool table there are object balls in a classic triangle. The
shot is performed with a force that could be regulated from the bottom
center of the table. When three or more balls of the same color
(including the cue ball) are connected together, they are removed from
the table. The task of the player is to remove all the balls from the
table in order to go to the next level. The position of balls on the
virtual net of the table is fixed, that is why even if the player did
not use the necessary force of the shot the balls do not go to the
sides of the table as in ordinary Pool. Anyway, if the shot is not
successful, the additional balls appear on the table.
The algorithm of placing the balls was developed following John Conway's
Game of Life; modifications in it are connected with the peculiarities of
hexagonal net and addition of an element of chance. As the result the game
has strikingly beautiful color combinations that dynamically change from
shot to shot.
The game is over if one or more balls touched the lower edge of the table.
Snooker has unlimited number of levels that constantly become more and
more complicated. The score is rising in progression from level to level;
it encourages the gamer to play on the higher (more complicated) levels.

$17 is steep but this game's a great time killer. You shoot little balls up in a Puzzle Bobble fashion, but everytime you miss the puzzle get's bigger. Very fun :)

This is a very funny game with beautiful color, but the price is a bit high.
