She also described the game play in a clean manner. You can read the whole review here – http://www.appcraver.com/carambole-pool-puzzles/

“Now here’s the most charming little puzzle game you never heard of; Carambole Pool Puzzles from ADS Software Group Inc. It’s loosely based on snooker but highly ‘iPhone-ified’ into a smooth-flowing casual game experience.”…

He has made a good description of the gameplay, even better than we made it ourselves:

“The goal is to use a target colored ball to hit other balls of the same color and ultimately clear all balls from the table. Hitting 2 or more other balls per shot will remove all but anything less and your shot simply becomes part of the playfield. It’s ok to hit other balls in the process but only your current target color will count for that shot. There’s no cue nor other pool acoutrements, you simply position your ball around the perimeter of the level and shoot; it will always travel in a straight line across the table while a power meter dictates the force of the shot. Each shot is with a different colored target ball as long as you have more than 1 color onscreen. The level design is fun and includes static ‘bumpers’ that count as targets, coffee cups (or is that tea), ball racks, non-target black balls that serve to obstruct, multicolor ‘wildcard’ balls and balls you have to match multiple times to clear. There’s even a bonus poker chip that pops up from time to time and gives you extra points if you can roll over it with any ball.”

Although he experienced a crashes, we have published a fix that helped overcome that issue. And he published an update:

“Update 3/10/2009 – v1.3 is now out and the crash problem has been successfully resolved. The dev is promising more levels and the ability to replay any level in the next update. Fantastic! This is exactly the kind of developer support we all crave and appreciate. I can now wholeheartedly recommend this game to all casual puzzle people out there; you will definitely enjoy it.”
