Midnight Pool Sneaks Onto N-Gage

By TheGuru on July 1, 2008

In case you slept through the weekend, we wanted to let you know that Midnight Pool has been added to the ever-growing list of games available on Nokia’s N-Gage platform. Hailing from Gameloft, Midnight Pool allows you to work your way through the ranks of the underground billiards scene, earning more cash and more respect from fellow shooters.

Several sites have already given the game a run-through, and written up their thoughts thus far. Steve at AllAboutNgage is impressed with the graphics and experience, but gives the actual gameplay rather low points.

It’s free to download (aside from data costs) and give the trial a go, so it won’t hurt anything to give it a run. What do you think? Great game, or do you think you’ll stick with the free trial?

    'give it a try'
    haha
    90 seconds trial time.

    another Java port from 3 or 4 years back.
    although GFX have slightly improved since then it's nothing to go crazy about.
    i would'nt recommend it to anybody b/c there is so many better pool games around for less than half the price.
    I got it just for N-gage point's and to keep me intrested in the N-gage brand until the better games are released later this summer.
    I Can't wait for ONE ,Worms World Party ,Bounce Boing voyage ,Pro series Golf , Dirk Dagger and Reset Generation, When we finally start seeing these game released then N-gage as truly arrived!

    I've managed to get around 30 points just from the trial >_<

    When it comes to the gameplay, nothing new here as donutty said, just another java port. It seems that Gameloft games have always been overcharged in my opinion and such a game as Midnight Pool which have been around for so long should have been priced at around 60 NOK.

    But then again the more I look into the old N-gage games and the upcoming new ones, the more I find remakes of.

    The Gameloft's java games also have been quite pricey at 50 to 60 NOK for some lousy game. I'm willing to pay that for a good game without a doubt, but for a java game? No thanks.
    (I rather use my money to buy useful applications for my phone instead.)

    Mr. Steve Lichfield is a funny / weird man.
    He already got the first place on this game just after it was released, which was quite impressive in my opinion.

    (I mean funny / weird in a good way. After all I think the former Smartphone show is really amusing.)

    Just listened to the allaboutsymbian podcast.

    And one good point Mr. Steve Lichfield pointed out is that you can pay for the game for one day and play that time.

    He finished the whole game on 4 hours and got all the points.

    It is indeed one "good" aspect of the N-gage 2.0 that you "pay as you go" on the games.
    When looking at it that way it won't be too expensive for the games.

    However I do think that most people would like to own the games themselves. (For instance borrow my handset to my little brother / sister to let them play the games.)
