First off, this is the best video game version of billiards I've ever played throughout the years.
I love the game's visuals it has a dark undertone to it which you would not expect for a billiards game, it feels a lot like a dark 80s-90s movie in that sense.
This game has a surprising amount of skippable plot which is quite surprising, unfortunately I can't speak of the quality of it due to the fact I can't read Japanese very well.
There's also a gambling system, which I haven't been able to figure out but it is optional as well.
What I love about this game, is the the first person camera view in the top left of the screen which just shows you what the ball sees which I haven't seen from any other billiard video games. It makes it a lot easier to aim especially when it is normally a top down angle, unlike the angles of real life where you look at it... from an angle.
The only part I find bad about this game is the fact you have to do another billiards game up to a certain point after you win, which means you can have wayyyyyyy longer than intended games of billiards when you were just looking for a casual time.
Overall, this game is really under appreciated and I hope more people play this game especially if they like billiards because this is the best billiards game of all time.
