This one is the AUTHENTIC CLASSIC game of billiards (and this is the authentic title). It's very good, with all possible kinds and rules included!

I uploaded my .dsk file. If anyone gives it a try, please tell us if it worked! Thanks!
Me thinks, yes.
I had problems running it in my Mini vMac. I downloaded it from another site and compiled a .dsk file that runs properly in my computer. Is it OK to upload it here?
Now that I think back on it, seems like there were pretty good physics on this game for the time. I remember slamming the balls as hard as possible just to watch em zoom back and forth across the table
Billiard Parlour is a really excellent pool sim. This pretty much represents my earliest memory of mac gaming! BP is equipped with some nice extras like graphic trajectories and ball placement (we used to line up all the balls in at one of the pockets and then slam 'em in one shot). Runs fine on Mini vMac on the slowest setting.
This one runs pretty well (but maybe a bit too fast) in Mini vMac running System 6. Better results might be had from doing a custom compile of the emulator to get an older machine.
