Description: ‘The Rack – Pool Billiard’ is an online PvP pool game in which you get to gamble your virtual and real-world money away. while the main game is free (with several free games to play each day) you will have to buy more virtual credits in order to play longer. There are a few customizable pool cues to unlock many of which come with extra features like better accuracy and aiming (because you can buy these with virtual money you could argue that this game is play to win).
While there isn’t a tonne of players online it is free to download, so you could always meet up with a friend. It looks good with customizable avatars and the gameplay is pretty easy to get the hang of. As long as you don’t mind the gambling element of this game it is a pretty decent pool game with a lot of potential. I just wish it was always on an even playing field with no-one having better cues with more stats. That just seems a bit unfair to me, but I do recommend the game if you are a good pool player. Its not the best pool game for our VR headsets, but it’s well worth a look.
Review: (TBA – To Be Announced) – Sadly this game is not yet released and we have no idea when it might be. So, for now, we can’t really review the game even if there is a free demo for it as it would not be an accurate review of the full game. But as soon as it does become available we will review it and make a gameplay video for you to watch.
