March 8th, 2005 - Paprikari (www.paprikari.com/) announced today that DDD Pool, or 3"D" Pool, would receive a major update to improve compatibility with older machines, making one of the greatest pool simulations available to almost everyone. The update turned back the DirectX requirements and made a number of other enhancements to optimize play on older machines. This final major step forward has prompted Paprikari to officially declare DDD Pool released.
DDD Pool is a realistic fully 3D pool simulation that provides access to five game types and 3 levels of computer AI. The physics engine of the game provides an accurate display of many different shot factors, move the position of the cue, adjust where it strikes the ball, adjust the power level, and of course, aim to perform any number of true to life pool shots. With three different rooms to play in the scenery won't be the same old green felt table every time.
The five game modes include 8-Ball, 9-Ball, 8-Ball Challenge, 9-Ball Challenge, and practice mode. While 8 and 9-Ball follow traditional rules, challenge mode pits you against the clock. Practice mode allows for free play to hone your pool skills. Each of the three levels of difficulty will provide a challenge for any skill level, novice to professional. Also you have the option of playing against other live humans in a hot-seat match, which means endless fun for family and friends.
Enjoy pool the way it was meant to be played, with super-realistic physics and limitless shot positions, DDD Pool brings you everything but a cold draft beer. Enjoy the 60 minute full feature demo from their website at www.paprikari.com and begin your journey to becoming a true pool shark.
Pool Champs is a game simulation of billiards produced by Parikari Original development team. Players have the opportunity to try their hand at pocketing balls in competition with a living opponent or computer-aided intelligence.
Pool Champs is a simulation game prepared by an independent development studio Paprikari (known from the Mortimer Beckett series of adventures) for billiards fans, but also for people who would like to learn the rules of this sport.
In Pool Champs players have the opportunity to try their hand at driving balls into the arches of the virtual pool table. The creators took care of aesthetic, three-dimensional graphic environment and realistic game physics, which allows you to experience the experience of participating in a real billiard match.
The game offers five gameplay variants. In addition to training, there are traditional 8-ball or 9-ball fights, as well as challenges in which the aim of the game is to pocket the balls on time. You can compete against a living opponent or computer artificial intelligence. In the second case it is possible to set one of the three difficulty levels.
Developers from Paprikari studio took care of a number of options to adjust the look of the game to the player's preferences. It is possible to choose one of the four decorations of the rooms where the billiard table is located, as well as a 5-stage selection of the quality of the balls and lighting effects.
You can almost smell the chalk and feel the felt with the detailed, bright 3D graphics that make you feel like you're in a billiards room. DDD Pool provides the sounds and visual effects that virtually put you on the table.
Play now with 3 difficulty settings on any of the 5 billiards games and you can pick exactly what you want to play. DDD Pool practice mode is perfect for beginners while the experienced player can compete in traditional 8-ball and 9-ball games or 8 or 9-ball challenges.
8-ball Challenge makes you sink 14 yellow balls and then the 8 ball in as little time as possible. You're given a 15 second penalty every time you commit a foul. And the 9-ball Challenge is similar, but you try to sink the 9-ball in as little time as possible while needing to hit the lowest number ball on the table first.
DDD Pool is easy for anyone to play. Its simplistic controls allow stress-free pool controlled by keyboard or mouse. Even an inexperienced player can feel like a pro when you change the angle of your cue (SHIFT+mouse) and the cue tip position on the ball (CTRL+mouse) to add English or spin to your shots.
You can hit the pool hall without leaving your house. Play as much as you want against all the various challengers. Once you master the A.I., play against your friends or family in the human vs. human modes.
