# Pool Classic: 8 Ball Billiards

## Your pool night. On Apple TV.

Line up your next shot in 3D billiards made for the living room. Play against the computer or challenge a friend on the same Apple TV, with Siri Remote and compatible game-controller support.

**Apple TV | Offline play | Local 2 player | Four pool variants**

## Pick your game

* **American 8-ball:** Play solids and stripes, clear your group and finish with the 8.
* **European 8-ball:** Switch to reds and yellows for another style of pool.
* **9-ball:** Plan your way through the rotation game.
* **10-ball:** Take on a different rotation challenge.

In-game rules explain each variant. Pool Classic uses approachable house-rule adaptations for casual play.

## Play solo or share the table

Choose Casual, Pro or Master difficulty for a computer opponent. For pool night with a friend, select Pass & Play and take turns on the same Apple TV. Share a remote or use compatible controllers.

Play a quick Single Rack, or choose Best of 3 or Best of 5 for a longer match.

## Find your angle

Adjust aim and power, experiment with top spin, backspin and side spin, and explore camera views to study the table. Use the Siri Remote touch surface or play with a compatible gamepad.

## Set the mood

Choose from five table themes: Heritage Tournament, Cyber Neon '84, Tokyo Gold Lounge, Miami Synthwave and Nordic Frost. Customize the table and cloth to make the next rack your own.

## Get started

1. Open Pool Classic on Apple TV.
2. Use Match Mode to choose a game variant, Vs AI or Pass & Play, and a match format.
3. Select New Game to start a fresh match.
4. Swipe to aim, click to select power, swipe up or down to adjust it, then click to shoot.

Open the menu with Menu/Back for settings and Rules & Controls.

## Common questions

### Can I play without an internet connection?

Yes. Gameplay runs offline and does not require an account. Downloading or updating the app through the App Store requires an internet connection.

### Can two people play together?

Yes. Pass & Play supports two players taking turns on the same Apple TV. Online matchmaking is not included.

### Do I need a game controller?

No. You can use the Siri Remote. Compatible game controllers are also supported.

### Can I resume a match?

The app saves match state locally for resuming play. Apple TV manages local storage, so saved matches are not a guaranteed backup or a cloud save.

### Which Apple TV software is required?

The current version targets tvOS 26.0 or later. Confirm compatibility in the App Store when the app is released.

## Availability

App Store availability will be announced when released.
