Lots of different snookergames, but most isn't really snooker as this one. A level where you play for "snookers" would be awesome. Great game 5/5.

Errrrrrr, I just played a thin cut and, despite the interface indicating that the object ball would travel towards the pocket, I was fouled for missing all the balls!!!

With the cursor on the cue ball full to the left and taking a straight shot off the bank, the ball merely returns straight backwards, contrary to the way it would in real life.

I don't get it...it says "Ball required: any color." So I hit red, and it says incorrect ball potted? what? red is a color last time I checked

I see no game with realistic phisic. You know, that's not a pure gemetry. Guess you strike a ball by direct line throught the centres. But adding a spin may affect second ball up to 20-25% degrees! That's called "sport targeting" and "sport strikes" versus "classic" ones. Difference that in sport calculation balls collision affects by rotation of it external shape. In classis, it's only matter of mass. so mass of the first ball move a second one from the line. I'm playing already 10+ years, so..... Yet again, i've seen no realistic billiard yet.

It's the best snooker/pool game I've ever played online. The pockets are probably too big, but the ease of potting makes up for the annoyance of unwanted/accidental pots. There's one mistake: when colours are replaced in the RL game, if their spot is covered, they go on other spots if possible; at the moment, the system always puts them as close as possible to their own spot. (I lost a good break today because of being snookered by such an erroneously replaced ball.) And I had a bug the other day: a brown which I only just potted wasn't replaced!

Quinn's Review: BB2: Snooker Skool is one of the better snooker implementations I've seen on Kong. First up, kudos for the retro gamer lounge music - very apt, very enjoyable, and it doesn't get on your nerves. The shots are smooth, the graphics simple and polished, and the physics are pretty much fine, which is all you really want from a pool or snooker game. The 'missions' are an interesting touch - you're not just playing games of snooker (solo), you have specific challenges to complete, such as sinking balls in a particular order or in a particular way. That's what I most enjoy doing on an actual pool table, and I know snooker players routinely try these modes to improve their snookering abilities, so it's nice to see it in a flash game. Overall this game isn't going to set your world on fire, but it's about as faithful and rewarding a snooker game as I've seen thus far, so thumbs up.

@El_Tiburon
When you go for the colours it isnt allowed to play a double!
In case you are hunting down the red you can play doubles! you'll just have to hit the red one first and sink a red ball.

Gamer4124: When a ball is required as the next shot it also required that the white strike it before any other balls.

OK...WTF It said "Next Shot: Yellow" So I hit the pink ball INTO the yellow ball knocking in the yellow ball and it STILL gave me points off, Thats a good shot and should be given bonus points.

well done guessy, I think 5jjw5 is just a jealous guy he can't stop going on and on and on about how much he doesn'y care. Proves with solid facts that he is in denial

It was ok i suppose, The graphic's are incredible for a flash game, but it's no where near as good as actual snooker, the power is terrible, the ball move's around alot more and alot faster than the highest power on this game, Sorry, only 2/5 from me.

this game has good points and bad. good: graphics, physics, setup. I very much enjoy the idea of a trick shot puzzle game. that said, however... bad: timing-pool is not about how fast you can pot balls in the majority of cases, so basing any ranking on that is a bad idea. second, and this is key, is that the puzzles don't tell you what ball you need to pot until the shot itself. you should be told the shot beforehand so you can set up for it. seeing as how there are always a number of ways to pocket any single ball, ADVANCE planning is at the heart of pool. the approach taken here is counterproductive.

rofl! the white ball dropped into a pocket, but just after the turn has ended. now Im able to play the white from the left top pocket
