About Pool Mania
Challange your intelect and skills in this one of a kind pool game. Collect stars and unlock stronger cues so you can beat harder levels.
How to play Pool Mania
The opening minute doubles as the tutorial. Point, click, done: the mouse is the entire control scheme. Landscape layout: give it the fullscreen button on desktop, or rotate your phone. Take the first run as practice and the second one seriously.

Why it is worth playing
Plenty of board games want a tutorial and ten minutes of setup before anything happens. Pool Mania does not — it is playable from the first second. That is a rarer quality than it sounds.
