Overview

Pool Masters is an exciting new take on the classic 8-ball pool game, brought to life by Eyeball Games—the same team behind the widely recognized 8 Ball Pool. With a focus on delivering realistic physics, engaging multiplayer action, and a player-centered economy, the game offers something fresh for both casual players and die-hard pool fans.

Gameplay and Features

The core gameplay of Pool Masters revolves around delivering a realistic and competitive pool experience. The game's physics aim to replicate the feel of a real table, letting you control spin, angle, and power for every shot. It's designed to reward precision and strategic thinking, making every game feel satisfying whether you win or lose.

Multiplayer is a big focus, with options to play one-on-one matches or compete in timed tournaments. The matchmaking system is built to pair you with opponents of a similar skill level, so you're always facing a fair challenge. Winning matches and tournaments earns you in-game rewards, including CHIPS, which act as the main currency.

Cue sticks are a core part of the gameplay loop, serving both as tools and collectibles. Each cue has different stats and rarities, and they wear down with use, requiring maintenance. This adds a layer of strategy as you manage your resources to keep your cues in top condition. For those who enjoy building collections, owning rare or high-performing cues can be a satisfying pursuit.

GOLD, the in-game currency, is earned through various activities like matches, quests, and daily logins. It's essential for entering matches, repairing cues, and participating in events. Balldroid collectibles add another layer to the economy, offering extra rewards to players who own them.

NFTs and Web3 Integration

Pool Masters integrates web3 features by turning certain in-game items, like cue sticks and Balldroids, into NFTs. This means players can actually own and trade these items, giving them more control over their in-game assets. For those new to web3, this setup doesn't require much extra knowledge—you can still enjoy the game without diving into the blockchain side of things. However, for players interested in digital ownership, the game offers a modern twist on traditional in-game economies.

How to Get Started

Pool Masters is currently in its pre-launch beta phase, allowing players to dive in and compete for rewards. You can try the game now through your web browser or on Android devices. The controls will feel familiar to fans of mobile pool games, closely resembling the popular 8 Ball Pool, and the gameplay follows the classic solids vs. stripes rules. As you climb the ranks, you'll earn coins that can be used to upgrade your cues, enhancing key stats like power, accuracy, and shot time to improve your performance.
