Welcome to our review of Pool Party, another party game to play with your friends!

POOL PARTY – GAMEPLAY MODES:
Pool: Score by kicking balls of your color into the open pockets while being careful not to fall in yourself!
Tennis: Either solo or in pairs, kick the ball across the court to score!
Sumo: No kicking allowed! Push the other players into the water by rolling into them. It’s push or be pushed!
Football: With one or two players on each team, shoot your ball into the opposing goal to score – or kick your opponents away to clear your path to the goal.
Idol: Compete to pick up and hold on to a small idol. Gain points by holding the idol. But beware – holding the idol means you can’t roll while your opponents chase you down to knock it out of your hands.
Jinxed: One of the players is cursed! Kick, push, or hit the other players to pass the curse onto them. When the timer runs out, the cursed player loses, and the curse finds a new target. The last one standing wins!
Free-for-all: Knock your opponents into the pockets and try to be the last one standing.
Tournament: Play a mix of all the different game modes and become the ultimate Pool Party champion!
Pool party is exactly what you would think and expect it to be. A fun game to play with friends and an excellent addition to your collection if you are into these kinds of games. Not a very high standard in any way, but for party games, the contents are only judged by the fun they bring and that is the kicker here, it is fun to play with friends. Alone, it can become quite dull, but for like a student living among his peers in a school campus or dorm, this will forge friendships or ruin them for life.
Personally, I spent most of my time alone with the game to really try and find its biggest downsides and well, the typical ones came to mind, your opponents can be rather predictable in some of the games. Nothing unexpected, really, but take for example the soccer mini-game, I noticed pretty early that some moves can really get you the upper hand from start to finish, nothing beats a silly kick to the outside of the field while you occupy the center, right?
In conclusion, I do like and enjoy this title, it is like the party game for me, with some minor violence at the right time, some more frustrations along the way when the game doesn’t seem to follow your flow, and even more fun when you pull a sure victory away from that guy next to you on the couch!
