Pool Party (2024)

This game is great to play with friends! The physics of the game is well-rounded (pun intended), and it’s also super easy to pick up. I liked how there are a bunch of mini-games to choose from, with my favorites being Football and Jinxed (it’s a Hot Potato like mini game). Overall, it was a great experience, and I will surely get back to it for our next party game night!

Most fun I've had in YEARS!!!

I received the game to test and write a review about it. Overall rating 3.5/5 The game is cute with enough customizability to allow a few people to play simultaneously while keeping track of their own character effectively, there are 7 different game modes to choose from which all differ enough to keep them interesting and while it is annoying that the game needs controllers to play, the physics based gameplay and decently quick reactions needed do benefit immensely from using a controller (even if it's slightly annoying that it is a requirement, the steamdeck is an option too though). How easy is it to pick up the game? 4/5 Intuïtieve. While you might fumble slightly the first match or two, the controls are straightforward enough that anybody who has played party games before will pick it up easy enough. Game diversity 2/5 With 7 game modes it might sound like a lot, but every game won't take more than 10 minutes and that's if it gets particularly exciting. After going through all 7 game modes in under half an hour, then replaying the game modes again I was more than done with them for that session, I was worn out even and had I not been in the process of reviewing the game I …

I have been testing this game for a couple of days. My first impression whas that it lookes like a game which I could enjoy with friends and family. The first couple of games it did impress me but after a few games it got really predictable. The games difficulties where ok at best. It is a game I think targeted at a younger audience since its really colourfull and easy. The controlls where really easy to manage withe the PS4 controller I have and easy to remember. If you are younger think around the ages 10-12 and competitive its a game for you. If you are a bit older wouldnt recommend.

I received the game to try out for free. Make sure when you buy the game that you have a controller available, as it is required to play the game! When trying out the game I chose the party mode, in which you get multiple minigames back to back. After each game you can vote which game you want to play in the next round, or the game picks one for you. After every game you receive points based on how well you did in the game (3 points for 1st place, 2 points for 2nd place, etc.) and this adds up to an x amount of points. The first player to reach this amount wins the game. It is possible to play with friends, or add bots of different difficulty levels to the game. I really liked the design of the game, it looks really cute and colourful, and the games are easy to learn, and a bit different than other games because your character is a ball and in the minigames you can choose to roll yourself, or roll other players, which is quite different from similar games I've played. I also liked that there were some options to customize your character before the game would start, although more could be added later in my opinion! The minigame I liked the most, was the ghost mode minigame, whic…

This game deserves way more attention than it currently has! Im not sure if the Tournament was bots or other players but if had an actual matchmaking system it would do very well!
