Summary

[Xbox Live Arcade] Multiplayer mayhem awaits for up to four local or online players, in a race to clear the most balls from your table in Inferno Pool. Pot balls to fire at opponents, or stockpile balls to unleash an onslaught. Master Jump Shots, Combos, Bank Shots, Kick Shots, and build your multiplier with an unbroken potting streak to unleash the devastating Inferno Mode. Alliances will be formed, friends will be betrayed, and the battle isn't over until the stat screen appears. Includes the challenging Endurance Mode, an Inferno-fuelled battle to survive against the clock and post a world-beating time. The game also includes classic pool modes for one or two local or online players. [Dark Energy Digital]

GameFocus

While the game lacks a bit of variety in terms of game modes, Inferno Pool is definitely worth checking out not only because of its price tag but also because of its unique and unconventional presentation. If you are looking for an original and fun pool game to play, this game will do the trick until another pool game gets released...let’s just hope that we won’t wait three more years.

Fast-paced action that's right on cue. [July 2009, p.97]

X360 Magazine UK

It's a test of endurance. [Issue#47, p.101]

Inferno Pool is a cool concept hindered by slippery controls and poor replay value.

TeamXbox

Unfortunately, somewhere along the way, the developers forgot that a pool game is only as good as its controls, and ended up with a scratch before the first break.

Xbox World 360 Magazine UK

The garish look is off-putting, but this sure plays a mean 8-ball. [Oct 2009, p.103]

IGN

Inferno Pool doesn't have enough flair to make up for the fact that, though the idea is decent, it just isn't much fun.

If you’ve got the points to spare, you could buy something worse. At least check out the demo to experience the fastest paced game of pool you have probably ever played.
