Inferno Pool is the kind of game that relies more heavily on its physics engine than its visual prowess. Fortunately, the physics are pretty good. Each shot plays out the way you'd expect it to, and the guide arrow is a very efficient shot indicator. For what it's worth, the underground look is a very good fit for this kind of game.
Now that I think about it, Inferno Pool relies more heavily on its physics engine than pretty much anything else. The sound design isn't bad, but there's simply not much to speak of. I still dig the Mortal Kombat - esque announcer, and the pool balls clack as nicely as ever. The opening music is energetic and the Menu-surfing sounds are intense; like I said, there's really not much to talk about when it comes to sound.
