Relaxing
Tue Aug 19 2025 ~TennisChick~A nice and simple “start & play” format with relaxing optics - similar to other Shallot “Coffee Games”. I play Coffee Golf and was not sure if this would be the same play, different visual field. I was pleasantly surprised! I never really played pool and found this game has me focusing and learning about angling for direct and banking shots. The provided guidelines are a wonderful teacher! Loving the simplicity of these games - perfect for quick “brain breaks” in my day!
Fun game marred by IAP failure
Tue Sep 02 2025 NushmutAs a daily player of Coffee Golf, this was a fun addition to my small collection of daily games. It’s simple on the surface but has a nice variety of challenges.
I quickly purchased the IAP to remove ads when it became available, in large part because I want to support the developers, but also because I disliked the ads. Unfortunately, the ads are still happening.
I’ve tried deleting and reinstalling the game, restarting my iPhone, and I’ve tapped the ‘Restore Purchases’ button dozens of times to no avail. I do have a receipt from Apple/App Store confirming the IAP and the option to purchase this IAP is gone from the app. But the ads are still happening.
I emailed Shallot support about this on August 24 and have yet to hear back as of September 2. I really want to support this developer, but it’s harder to do so when the purpose of the IAP isn’t fulfilled and their support email address, as found when tapping the App Support button/link on this App Store listing, isn’t leading to a response. I figured “Coffee Pool - Remove Ads issue” was a succinct but clear enough subject line. If I had known this would be such an issue, I probably would’ve just avoided the purchase altogether.
Super disappointed at the moment.
Solid and fun game but could use some more features
Sun Aug 31 2025 TravisD2784Everything in the game is very unique for a pool game and I’ve been enjoying it quite a lot. Only reason I’m giving it four stars is because there’s not a lot of different options in terms of abilities and purchasing them. So far the only way to buy the abilities is the starter pack which costs money. It would be great to be able to purchase the upgrades with coins. And also buy different abilities where maybe you can only choose three to bring in.
Addicting
Tue Sep 02 2025 Soviet ReunionBig fan of Coffee Golf and this hits all of the same notes. Onto league 46 now! Only suggestion would be to add a redo button as it may take me a bunch of attempts on a round.
Good but limited play
Thu Aug 28 2025 MrGoodbyeI want to give this 5 stars, but I can’t as if you can get past a level, you basically can’t play for the rest of the day. The Golden Shot level always stops me and I usually reach it within 5 boards.
For people who pay the $8 for ad free, I wish the developers would add in a random mode that gives no rewards just so that paying customers can always play offline.
Good game, needs some tweaks.
Sun Aug 24 2025 AzuquadrosGames pretty fun and enjoyable, definitely needs some tweaks and from my experience in league 7 I would like there to be more options regarding IGC’s, the coins feel pretty useless and not worth “grinding”.
I’d also really like to see an invert contrast or colorblind mode due to the red/green balls + holes tend to trip me up as someone with Deuteranopia. Overall games feel good though.
Good Game Terrible ads
Sat Aug 23 2025 PS HoffmanThe game itself is well crafted and enjoyable to play. The ads however are difficult to bypass or even close at times which often makes me close the game to get past them. (Also $8 to remove the ads seems a little high.) I like the game so I’ll keep it in hopes they fix the ads otherwise I’ll just stick with their other games which I definitely recommend.
Just here for ads
Wed Aug 27 2025 swylbillyI like the daily challenge, but it is impossible to play the league setting. There is no option to turn ads off. Once you get a game or two into the league, an ad pops up and never goes away. I’ve sat for two minutes waiting for an “X” to appear to close the window it never comes. A game takes 40 seconds and the ads are longer than 2 minutes with no way to purchase to turn them off. Terrible.
Almost Fun
Sun Aug 24 2025 Taco IXThis game is more frustrating than it is fun after the first few levels. The camera angle cannot be adjusted and it makes it unnecessarily difficult to line up longer shots. This combined with the modifier gimmicks the game uses makes for a frustrating experience, which could be avoided if the player was able to change the camera angle.
Green/yellow too similar
Mon Sep 08 2025 doaky44I have been addicted to this game since it released and am on league 46 but I have found myself mixing up the yellow and green balls on some of the levels. A darker green would fix the issue. The green color above the pocket is way darker than on the ball
