Pocket Pool is a game released for the PlayStation Portable gaming system, developed in France by Hyper-Devbox Japan and published by Conspiracy Entertainment exclusively in North America. The game was originally expected to have the Girls Gone Wild license[1] but the publishers were unable to negotiate terms.[2]

Gameplay

[edit]

The game is a 3D pool game, featuring 13 different play modes.[3] Players can set the speed of the balls before they start a match.[4] Players use the d-pad to aim and to adjust the power of their shots, and can adjust the spin and angle of their shots as well.[4] Players can preview where the ball will land after a shot, and can change the camera angle to have a better idea of the playing field.[5]

The game includes ad-hoc local multiplayer.[4]

Every time the player wins a match, they unlock a new table, cue stick, set of balls, or an erotic image or video of one of the various models presented in the game,[4] which can be viewed using a basic gallery feature.[5]

Reception

[edit]

The game was mostly panned, with critics considering the game to have poor physics[3][4][5] and disappointing unlockable items.[4][5]

Tie-ins

[edit]

All of the model videos featured in the game were released by Conspiracy Theory under the title Dream Models, a UMD movie.
