About the Game

Pool Fiction is an action-strategy roguelike where every battle is played on a pool table. Aim carefully, calculate impossible angles, and chain spectacular shots to defeat enemies while building a unique run every time you play.

Each ball has special effects that completely change the way you play: explosions, extra bounces, spells, elemental attacks, duplications, and many more combinations to discover. Precision matters, but building the right setup matters even more.

Collect new balls, relics, and spells as you progress through increasingly difficult encounters. Combine their effects to create absurdly powerful synergies and turn a simple game of pool into strategic chaos full of combos.
