Play Archer Macleans Pool Online – MS-DOS Game

Game Overview

Ever wish you could challenge your buddies to a round of pool without leaving your desk? Archer Maclean’s Pool brings the smoky, felt-covered magic of the billiards hall straight to your MS-DOS screen. This classic gem from the legendary Archer Maclean (yep, the same genius behind Snake and IK+) nails the satisfying clack of balls, the strategic bank shots, and even that smug thrill of sinking the 8-ball last. With smooth physics for its time and a no-nonsense approach, it’s pure, unfiltered pool—no flashy gimmicks, just you, your cue, and a pixel-perfect test of skill.

Whether you’re in it for the nostalgia or just craving a stripped-down, addictive sports sim, this game holds up surprisingly well. The AI won’t go easy on you, and those trick shots? They’re as devilishly fun to pull off now as they were in the ‘90s. If you miss the days when games were simple, challenging, and endlessly replayable, consider this your invite to rack ‘em up again.
Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
