8 Ball Hero - Pool Puzzle Game for Negative User Reviews
✓ Good Game But...Ok... to start off there is a serious problem with the Lucky Shots. I have no idea what I’m supposed to do because it does not tell me what I’m supposed to accomplish. Also it’s hard to get 3 stars on a level because it tells you what you are supposed to have done after you are done. I think it’s a good game but the goals or challenges should be told beforehand....Version: 1.10
✓ Very good pool game but with multiple flawsThis is without a doubt the best pool game for the iPhone. The graphics and physics are excellent. The in app purchases are moderately balanced in that you truly can play through the game without spending real cash. What I love about this game is that it provides fun challenges and in my opinion, helps players understand the different fundamental concepts of pool. Additionally, the graphics are a pleasure to view and the collision physics are spot on (you can make very tight/close shots). Now for the problems. There is no way for players to view the star requirements at the level start. Rather, you need to either get lucky and pass the requirements unknowingly or you fail and can then see the star requirements. This is a slimy tactic and should be changed as it detracts from the player experience. My other issue is the way identity is managed. The developers only allow account creation (and game progress backup) via Facebook account. This is absolutely not acceptable and is an unfriendly slap to players. Please add login via gamecenter or email..Version: 1.10
✓ Might Be Cool If You're 12 Yrs OldThis game had to have been designed for, or by some snowflake, participation trophy millennials. The essence is to ultimately sink the 8 ball in a series of "challenges." Mind you; the pool game is cut short by a fast forward of a mocked game. The physics of the game are interesting but there is nothing "real" about the feeling of playing pool. The orator cheers you on as if you are a child. It's a very Las Vegas-y bells and lights kind of thrill. I didn't find this game challenging as much as I did frustrating. There are objectives listed AFTER you complete each challenge; so if you don't miraculously complete a challenge the way the game intends you to; your star rating is lower and you have the chance to reattempt the challenge. Why are these objectives not stated clearly when the round begins? Again, I might like this game if I were twelve but the demographic range is all over the place making it feel cheesy overall. Hence my two star rating. This is not playing pool. These are pool challenges..Version: 1.11
✓ Good game but needs more contentIt’s a good game with great mechanics but is a little easy. I have 3 stars on every level and wait months and months for more content. The problem is new levels only take a couple of days to complete with 3 stars and then you have to wait months for more. It would be a 5 star game if they released new levels every month..Version: 1.20
✓ Mise à jourUne mise à jour.Version: 1.18
✓ So fakeGame is literally so fake you play a hard shot into the pocket ball won’t go in and doesn’t play the correct positional shot. And if I play a shot that is hard to get but I pot it anyways I literally have no position and it does this every time. Game is so addictive but needs a lot of work to it!!.Version: 1.12
✓ Good game ruined by freemium modelQuite fun but energy runs out too quick. Means you can’t really play around with shots. Probably not worth playing unless you like short stints of play only. Wish there was a model where you could just buy the game..Version: 1.06
✓ Good gameMy only complaint is that if you miss a shot, you go back more than the last shot you made. e.g. I miss a shot after two successful shots, and the game goes back to the first shot (that I already made!) And, you can get stuck in this circle for ever! Trying not make the same shots over and over!.Version: 1.09
✓ Crashes constantly!!!Have to keep rebooting to reset the game because it constantly crashes. Black screen, part of the screen and sometimes the cue stick won’t stay where you put it..Version: 1.20
✓ SosoThis game is little bit unreal, some doesn’t work like that.Version: 1.18
✓ Iwant to play real opponentsBoring so far.Version: 1.10
✓ GreatThis game is really good. Physics of the ball control is almost as good as playing the real game. Only one problem I have now reached level 270 and the next tour just says coming soon. When is this going to be released as I really want to continue playing this great game/ dropped my rating as I deleted this game and reinstalled a few months later played right through again got to same level as before and still says coming soon so why make a game if you can’t be bothered to carry on making more levels.Version: 1.12
✓ Two things would make this betterOne, is provide an alternative to saving progress with a Facebook login. Should be another way to save using an email address or non-FB or Google account. Second, show the star challenges before the entering the match the first time..Version: 1.11
✓ Awesome gameI still think its an awesome game i i had originally given it 4 stars but i have since changed because my issue was it was syncing properly on multiple devices. I know pool is a challenging game but im stuck on 105 for about 3 weeks and use all my power on it so i have stopped playing. Some may say its childish but im stuck and there is no use playing if i cant get pass it. Maybe think about adding a skip button for impossible shots. Thanks.Version: 1.06
✓ SuggestionsI love this game! Only two things that bug me. I wish I could play a full game of pool with this layout and graphics. Great job guys! The only thing I would love for you guys to do is put each levels “mission quest” (as I like like to call them) on the pause screen or pre-round. I hate playing the match and then seeing only 1star. If I could see the level task before hand I would know each levels challenge and try to get them the first go around. If you fix these issues and possibly add full games, I would definitely rate 5 stars!.Version: 1.12
✓ Just another pay to play pool gameNothing special or unique. You have goals to reach 3 stars per level but they don’t show you the goals until after you beat the level. If you didn’t complete em, you’ll have to use more life to go back and replay the level. It gets rather boring really fast and the aiming controls are sketchy at best. Much better pool games out there.Version: 1.06
✓ DisappointingSo I’ve already written a review but I wanted to add it’s disappointing this game hasn’t seen any new levels in well over 2 years. I’ve contacted the developers and they said they have no plans to make any levels at present. They are still making money off this game though from people paying for stuff... Not good in my opinion! Update. I have seen many more people complaining about levels. I said over 3 years ago now that I contacted the developers and they said they had no plans for anymore levels. Please stop scamming people!.Version: 1.20
✓ Fun, but no new levelsI like this game so much that I was able to get through all the levels. The problem is that I’ve been waiting for the new levels for over a month. I’ll add more stars when the new levels show up..Version: 1.12
✓ DisappointmentAs long as you hit your ball first, it is NOT a foul if you make one of your opponent's ball...get your facts checked and fix your game !.Version: 1.20
✓ Pay to play. literally.I don’t think this game is worth it. if you mess up you have to restart the whole level. to only go back one ball you need 10 in game bucks that you buy with REAL LIFE money. annoying af. sometimes i end up having to waste EVERY heart on one level, and end up not beating the level and having to watch stupid ads. ugh.Version: 1.09
✓ Excellent and DisappointingThe GOOD: this is probably one of the best pool games available with excellent graphics and very realistic physics. It’s not a full game of 8 ball, but rather predetermined scenarios. Playing this game could actually improve your real life pool playing abilities, it’s really that good! THE BAD: shameful cash grab scheme designed to addict players with a heart/energy system designed to force you to sit through multiple ads or sink endless amounts of cash into progressing. THE FIX: allow players the option of buying the full game with endless continues ($6.00 for 1 day of endless continues? Come on!). Also, add a full game of 8 ball game mode (online, vs AI) in addition to the scenario based game. I’d gladly shell out $10 for this level of quality. Come on Developers! Show us you care about the player. You deserve to make money for putting out a quality product, but don’t cheapen your art by framing it in corporate tactics. Be as good as the quality you have produced here and I’m sure every game you create after this will be worth my attention..Version: 1.09
✓ Great game if not for developers greedThe graphics are great and the game’s initial levels are fun but about level 20 it becomes way to frustrating to deal with the blatant pay-to-win model. Delete..Version: 1.20
✓ Room for ImprovementAs others have said, fantastic graphics and physics. There are three glaring problems though: 1) You can’t play an actual game of pool, either against a person or AI, 2) You can’t put spin on the cue ball (well not on the levels at which you’re going to become accustomed to the game, and before you get bored by not having the additional control which spin provides), 3) It starts demanding money even when all levels up to that point have been successfully completed. I may return to it tomorrow, but if it’s still going to cost money to enjoy then I’ll uninstall it and go back to it’s well-known competitor..Version: 1.09
✓ 8ball heroGame is fun, but if you screw up and lose all your hearts, you can’t play for like a few hours... I’d rather pay for a game then this bull crap.Version: 1.06
✓ Please! new levels! Please!Cmon guys..new levels are overdue!.Version: 1.20
✓ MahStarts off great but recharge is too slow and game is too greedy with microtrasaction. Hard pass.Version: 1.20
✓ Clean shotsI love this game but I have a very big problem. Level 53 is the most ridiculous. I’ve done everything to make clean shots and still don’t get credit. I’ve beaten every other level waiting for the new one to come and have been going back and getting three stars on ever level. But for some reason no matter what you do, level three is IMPOSSIBLE to get three stars!.Version: 1.18
✓ FrustratingThis game freezes way too much to enjoy.Version: 1.10
✓ Could be greatA good game spoilt by the fact you can’t see what you have to do to get three stars until after you’ve tried the level, feel like there’s a lot a time wasting having to do each level twice. Will probably end up uninstalling as it’s winding me up lol.Version: 1.20
✓ Too sensitive cue setup.This has all the makings of a great game but unfortunately the setting up of the cue is far too sensitive. I could line up the shot I wanted but as soon as I take my thumb off the screen the cue moves again. With a shot that takes such finesse, the slightest movement can’t be risked. Taking your thumb or finger off of the screen shouldn’t affect the game. If this was fixed the game would be awesome..Version: 1.06
✓ Bleh. Pool, snooker, or puzzleI am sorry. But has anyone here played on a professional table. Either us or European. The pockets are loaded in the game. Unlike real. Tables. They play like snooker tables. Way wrong. And the over pocket ball always stops short. The physics on drag and tops spin and way wrong. And there is hardly any side imparted on any shots and no swerve in the white. Even at the highest angle. It’s a good game puzzle solving not pool. On any way shape or form sorry..Version: 1.09
✓ Entertaining GameBug Fixes really? How about new levels? How come no one ever responds to emails by fans? Worthless leaders at this company Edit: when the heck are you going to add some new levels? Absolutely love this game and I have enjoyed the challenge of each level. I hope there are ,ore levels coming soon because it gets old playing the already completed over and over. Hurry up and release some new levels!.Version: 1.19
✓ Good game could be GreatI really enjoy this game I wish I could give it 5 stars but I can’t so here are the pros and cons. PROS: great gameplay and graphics... The mechanics work well.. The added ambiance is cool... And that’s about it for Pros, CONS: you can’t see the objectives until after the match so it’s impossible to get 3 stars on the first try unless it’s by accident... You dont get any options for custom cues Be nice to watch your opponent play (if the opponents are real) Each round should start with new life... Hopes this helps.Version: 1.16
✓ Rip offThis game is a rip off. I just downloaded it and plaid for about half an hour. I didn’t take any offers. After loosing it quickly resets and gives you another shot, but beware everytime you try again they are secretly charging you card. The next morning as I viewed my bank app I noticed they charger me almost 110 dollars to play for a half hour. This app should be removed from Apple play for fraud!!!!.Version: 1.20
✓ No multiplayerVery nice game but no multiplayer sux.Version: 1.06
✓ Great gameGreat game however the updates are very few and far between. Now sitting with 3 stars on every available level and with no other modes or challenges to play I’ve run out of things to do.Version: 1.15
✓ Very Limited GameThe entire game consists of only 14 "Seasons" in which there are about 20 games each. The games are not even complete games. They start at the last shot(s) of the game. You play anywhere between 2 and 7 balls each game. Don't know if or when there might be a next season. The games are rigged so that you must get the balls in pockets in the order specified. But you don't get to see the order until you finish the game. This requires you to go back and win it again in most cases. Rip-off. Also, don't spend any money on the inadequate tools they offer..Version: 1.10
✓ Needs new levels!!!Update with new levels!! It's been months and no new levels. Will delete game soon.Version: 1.18
✓ Finished gameI finished this game in about two months. I see someone else commented over a year ago wondering when new levels are being added. Not going to bother waiting around for it if it will take another year!.Version: 1.20
✓ Zero multiplayerWould be a lot cooler if it had multiplayer.Version: 1.09
✓ PAY to play...Any game that makes me wait to play or forces me to pay just to keep playing gets deleted. The game itself is fun and challenging but the mechanic of only allowing me a certain number of missed attempts and then putting me in a timed penalty box” or making me buy tokens just to play is a non-starter foe me..Version: 1.06
✓ If only......If only you could play a full game, either against other players or even against AI, this would top my best ever pool/snooker games. I find playing the last couple of shots in each game very boring and repetitive. Please try to make it a full pool game and I will pay full price..Version: 1.06
✓ Good mechanics, poor conceptThe gameplay here is done right as you would expect with FTG games. The problem is, as with most FTG games, it is designed to make money first and foremost. Outside of the game mechanics, this game is completely hollow. No purpose, no stats, no multiplayer, it is not even complete and says Coming soon after lvl 320. They should really rethink their whole strategy as this is another example of a game that if it was finished right and given an upfront price, I would have payed it. As it is, I played it for free, and now have to delete it with a disappointing taste in my mouth..Version: 1.20
✓ OkThe graphics are surprisingly good however I wish you actually played the full game and not just the last couple of balls that part isn’t the best. I’d give it a 5 star if you could play the full game..Version: 1.20
✓ Could be a lot betterIt’s great except: no ability to extend the shot line as the levels get more difficult, means that one is pretty much guessing where to play the shot. Forced ads (5-10 seconds and then the X appears) ruin the continuity of the game. At that point, I close the game. It’s lost it’s appeal to me now. I don’t even have it on the main screen, so often when I find it it’s been a while. The game is not progressive in the fact you cannot get better queue and take better shots etc. each level is same old same. Learn to guess where your aiming and hope for some luck. The white ball is designed to find a pocket and does all it can to sink itself. I could not replicate that on an actual pool table if I tried..Version: 1.20
✓ CrashingEvery time there’s an advertisement coming from one of your partners, we need to reboot the game ‘cause it won’t restart after the advertisement. That my friends, SUCKS!!.Version: 1.10
✓ Soon becomes frustratingEngaging at first but soon becomes an effort. Physics seem randomly off and level challenges escalate surprisingly quick, almost too quick.Version: 1.06
