8 Ball Live is a very fun game that manages to perfectly bring the authentic pool experience to practically any Android device, with a series of extra functions that hugely enhance the player's overall experience.
The controls in 8 Ball Live are really simple, as they are very similar to those of any other game in this genre: you can change the position of your cue stick by lightly sliding your finger around the screen. To make your shot more powerful, all you have to do is slide the power gauge on the left of the screen to wherever you want it. If you have turned the guide on, it will give you a hint as to where the different balls that you manage to hit will go.
One of the most interesting features of 8 Ball Live is the fact that, in addition to the classic tournament mode, players also have the chance to enjoy an arcade-style experience that is made up of set scenes where you need to pot all the balls in as few moves as possible.
Although it may be true that, at its core, the 8 Ball Live experience isn't that different from other games visually, its inclusion of these individual challenges makes it stand out in the genre.
