App Details
8 Ball Pool is a sports game, where players attempt to become the world's best 8 Ball Pool Player. There is the option to play 1 v 1 matches (in which players compete for Pool Coins), or to enter tournaments to win trophies. Players can connect and play with friends through Facebook, Miniclip and iMessage, or opt to challenge strangers from across the world.
Why is it a risk?
Although 8 Ball Pool is given a low age rating by both the Google and Apple App Stores, the Australian Council on Children and the Media have suggested that the age rating of this app should be raised. This opinion was due to themes of simulated casino style gambling within the app, which may be of concern to parents. Further, the app contains advertisements and in-app purchases.
