Play Tri-Pool Online

Tri-Pool is a 1992 arcade game by an unknown developer, a straightforward pool simulation released during a time when arcades were filled with both complex fighters and simple, quick-play titles. It doesn't try to reinvent the wheel; it just offers a clean digital version of pool for a few quarters, fitting right in with other no-fuss games of the era.

You control the cue stick, aiming and setting power for each shot across triangular pool tables. The main goal is to pocket all your assigned balls, then sink the 8-ball to win. The game's signature mechanics involve banking shots off the unusual table edges and managing tricky ball clusters that can ruin a run. The pacing is deliberate, almost tense, as a single mistake can leave you in a bad position. It feels like a test of patience and geometry more than pure reflex.
