Pool Cats is a realistic first-person pool game where you play as a cat.

Walk around the table, line up your shot, control the cue, and run the rack your way. Play solo, challenge NPCs, host a clubhouse with friends, or matchmake into competitive 1v1 games.

REAL POOL FEEL. FIRST-PERSON PRESENCE.

Pool Cats is built around the feeling most pool games miss: actually being at the table.

Walk the shot. Read the angle. Control your cue and choose your power. Every rack is a mix of strategy and execution, just like real pool.

REALISTIC, DATA-TUNED PHYSICS

Pool Cats uses a custom billiards simulator designed to capture the small details that make pool feel right, from precise collisions and rail responses to speed, spin, and table conditions.

The default physics is tuned using real-world data from a new 8-foot Diamond table, creating the experience the game was built to be played with.

PLAY POOL ONLINE 

Host a public or private clubhouse for up to eight players. Invite friends, play online, find a match with strangers, or take on a lineup of challenging NPC opponents.

PLAY YOUR WAY

Choose from 8-ball, 9-ball, 10-ball, and 14.1 Continuous, then customize the rules to fit your group.

Use familiar competitive rulesets, choose an APA-inspired setup, or create your own house rules. Shape each match around how you and your friends actually play.

MASTER POOL CHALLENGES

Challenge Mode gives you curated shots, drills, and unusual setups to master.

A future update will introduce a Challenge Designer, allowing players to invent trick shots, training exercises, and impossible nonsense for their friends.

EARN COSMETICS BY PLAYING

Unlock new cat appearances and accessories through skill, challenges, progression, and hidden secrets.

Become a distinguished pool shark, sit proudly in a cardboard box, or let your Pool Cat enjoy a victory cigar during the match.
