As soon as Speed Pool was added to the line up of uVme games I was hooked! I have always enjoyed pool down the pub with mates but why am I so addicted to this game?

This pool game differs from 9 Ball Pool as it says in the title it is Speed Pool. All the balls must be potted as fast as possible. All the reds must be potted first before finishing on the black. The faster you pot a ball the more points you receive for it. There is no hanging around with this game. Fouls are given in the form of minus points should you pot the white, miss the ball or pot the black before all the reds have been potted. Get big points by potting as many balls as early on as possible.

When you compare Speed pool to 9 Ball Pool, the controls for the game are so much easier to use; you still have all the same controls but they have been displayed in a much more user friendly way.

The difficulty in Speed Pool resides in the ability to remain calm. (put picture of me in)

As tension and heart rates rise the miss of a pot can lead to panic, frequently leading to the miss of a second easy shot and before you know it that top score is out of reach and you’ve been beaten by your girlfriend. Speed is very much the key, but ensuring a pot is far more important; it doesn’t matter how fast you take two shots it will always be quicker to take just the one.

With only the exception of the final black Speed Pool allows the reds to be potted in any order!

9 Ball Pool requires the use of accurate spin and power with almost every shot, with time not on your side, Speed Pool can be successfully played with good use of power alone as more often than not you will end up on another red.
