30 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Mastering power control, cue elevation, and precise English becomes a natural progression rather than a forced learning curve, and players familiar with real pool will find that much of their experience carries over seamlessly.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I recommend using a controller, the PC controls are ok but controller is the way to go.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
7 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
If you can grab the soundtrack with it, I'd also recommend picking that up.
