3D Live Snooker

3D Live Snooker catches all of the excitement of this classic game within the virtual world.

Snooker fans from around the world will be very impressed at what 3D Live Snooker has to offer. Based off of the traditional game, both short (10 red balls) and long (15 red balls) matches are available. Thanks to advances in technology, the movement of the balls as well as the cue is very realistic. This is in direct contrast to some older variants. Such realism is further bolstered by a soothing and tranquil background combined with all of the sounds that one would expect during a snooker match.

Variations of Game Play

One distinct benefit of 3D Live Snooker is that there are both single and multi-player modes. For those who crave the excitement of pitting their skills against another, this game can also be played online. Thus, it is easy to challenge others and become involved in a truly thrilling match. There may also be times when one wishes to hone his or her skills before becoming involved in live competition. In such an event, 3D Live Snooker also supports unlimited game play. This is a perfect option for practice sessions.

Customisation and Flexibility

As the title hints, there is a very real three-dimensional quality to this platform. Depending upon the intended shot, the camera will focus on the table at different angles. Players are able to customise their cues and their ball sets. The rooms and tables can also be changed to avoid repetition. On top of these amenities, there are five different levels of snooker which can be chosen. Novices and professionals will therefore be able to hone their skills to perfection while in the comfort of their own homes.

System Requirements

3D Live Snooker will need to be run with the Direct X 8.0 codec although Direct X 9.0 (the latest version) is recommended. The file is only 2.2 megabytes, so it will not take up a significant amount of memory. This game is compatible with most versions of Windows including Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 8.1.

Ultimately, this game combines the classic appeal of snooker with a flexibility that is sure to provide hours of enjoyment.
