POOLS™ reviews
4.5 out of 5, based on 4,738 reviews.
What people like
- The graphics look really realistic and eerie.
- It creates a perfect dreamlike liminal vibe.
- The VHS filter makes it feel authentic.
What they complain about
- Charging for almost every level feels unfair.
- The game is very dark and hard to see.
- It gets boring because you just walk slowly.
- It glitches out and won't load chapters.
Love the Backrooms
I love this game This game is amazing
I want a refund
I bought the full game. It ended up glitching out every time I went to play the next chapters. I had to delete it, get it back, and still did nothing. I know it isn’t a space issue or WiFi issue or a controller issue. I want my money back.
Great
Shame that I’m too poor to buy this
Error
Me dice esperando y no se descarga
The darkness
A lot of this game is so dark even on max brightness on my phone I cant see what is around me or where I am walking. Please make the game a little brighter
pool
scary
Scary game
Do not let kids play it it is super scary
It’s a good game
It feels very real and it’s fun no strange thing following me but it’s very scary. I’m half dead when I’m playing it.😅 some places beautiful I hate the game the duck scared me so badly every time🙃 and it’s difficult to finish it could you get some guidance if you get that maybe more peoples will like this game
cool
i looked at the reviews for this game and they made it seem pretty cool.then i played the game and i didnt understand the hype.yeah the only thing that really creeped me out were the noises and those werent even scary either.and plus when i started i was bored out of my mind,i agree the graphics are cool but you also walk really slow and nothing really happens besides the duck.overall its fine
Listen up
This game is by far the best liminal game out there but 10$ for 30 minute lasting 6 chapters Thats only over 200 minutes of play time which may seem like a lot but for something that you’d only play for like a month in a half at least make it less than 5$ thank you for this amazing experience
So peak😭
I can’t believe this is a mobile game
Stupid
You can’t walk!! How about showing us how to walk???
YES!!
The quality is great and the vibe is super eerie! I love games like this but I just kind of wish u didn’t have to pay for practically the entire game😔 other than that this game is great and I will totally recommend to my friends who like this kind of stuff!!
Hate it
I don’t get the point and it is super creepy.It did have good graphics though.The dark water makes it 10 times creepier.I would not recommend.
Falta no pagar
Muy chebre pero toca pagar para más niveles
Cool
I got stuck in a tunnel:) but it still good
Worst
Very boring
Good but one thing…
This is the first good Backrooms game I’ve played and part one was amazing! But it kinda sucks that everything else costs money. As a kid with a budget, (allowance) this puts it down a star. But otherwise, it’s a great game 4/5 stars
None
Charging money just to open a map? At least I could tolerate watching ads. It's not that I don't have money, it's just that I can't stand having to pay for everything
うん
課金昨日やめてほしい 画質はめっちゃいいのに 課金のせいで台無し
The real poolrooms
I love this game The graphics are perfect The VHS filter is perfect I feel like I’m literally in the poolrooms and the poolrooms doesn’t have entities so this is perfect I’ve only made it to chapter 1 and I love it. I’m obsessed.5/5⭐️ this is basically the Backrooms without level zero❤️❤️❤️
You’re scary
Don’t buy this game when you’re under a too scary. I tried it when I was was seven and I’m 2026August 2
Awesome sauce
it’s rlly good but not that scary if you think abt it, you should make another version of the game where there’s like monsters-1 monster for each level :)
Cuesta dinero
Muy buen juego, juegazo diría yo pero cuesta dinero todos los niveles extremos el primero y muy buen gráficos pero cuesta dinero pero buen trabajo
Great game:)
Great game, unfortunately I couldn’t play it for long, it was making me feel nauseous. Very cool, kudos to the developers.
LOVE IT
This game is so perfect it’s everything I had wanted i love liminal spaces it felt so dreamlike
It’s to scary
???
Realy interesting
Really interesting, but I can’t find my way out of the first level…
Kinda lame
All you do is walk around, the map ain’t that big, it took 2 mins to do the full map, and they’re is no monsters, no sprinting, so all you do is walk around. If this had monsters it would be a lot better, and maybe some missions.
悲しい
ゲーム自体はいいのですが#1が終わると課金しないとゲームできないので最悪です
Please ignore the reek
R too hurry
Unable to move
No tutorial. So maybe I did something wrong but I could not move. I’ve read common reviews. This game needs more one start reviews so the developers change or fix it
Great.
It’s an amazing game- feels classic, and of course, liminal. It’s very calm and engaging, though I’d extremely appreciate a way to implement entities (in some way, like a menu toggle) so it doesn’t feel repetitive or overly tense. This is the only thing preventing 5 stars. Great job!
Troublesome temps
Wasn’t expecting to hit 100 degrees celsius in 3 minutes of playing this on my M4 Pro.
楽しいけども…
楽しいけど、最後まで無料だったら続けてやりたかったです。もし無料になるならまたやりたいです!
Имба
Лучшая бекрумс игра🔥🔥🔥
Where are the monsters??
It’s kinda boring and I don’t know how to like get to the next level, it’s like a never ending pool loop. I get that it’s called ‘pools’ for a reason, but it’s just honestly so boring. You will get tired of it too quickly and that’s what annoys me. Graphics and quality is good though.
Little me healed
Little me was obsessed with the back rooms and liminal spaces and all of that. This game just brought that little me back and healed. It’s so fun, gets you tense, and is so realistic I though I could use it as a backrooms tape! Please get the game
#0の水中が何も見えない
タイトルの通り、チャプター0の水中が何も見えない。探索どころではない。金払ってるのでどうにか改善して欲しい。。。
音は悪くない
チャプター1をやってみたのだがゴールは何が正解なんや? 薄暗いどデカい部屋に高飛び台があって飛び込んだら終わり? その部屋に来たらもう後戻り出来ないって事はその道進んだら死亡フラグ確定なんか? 別ルートがあるのかな?
A request and gave is amazing
The game is very nice and good and I enjoyed it but I think you should add multiplayer so players can play with their friends too but I love the game and it’s amazing I love how we can control the game but I really request multiplayer and maybe make another version of it but like flower fields and like that
Meh
It was very meh. From comments on here I was expecting a lot more than what I played. Expecting too much or people are much more dramatic? Either way this game just lacks a lot except for graphics. I’ve seen dozens and played a few games just like these backrooms knock offs that were much more thrilling and on edge then a maze to the end.
Good but only one free level
Only 1 free level
What?
I loved the first free level, so I had to give at least 2 stars, but when I went to purchase the full game, it originally read 12.99, my account was charged 41 dollars, I have zero clue how this happened but I feel cheated
視線が高い
全体的に視線高くない? 底が見えないようなプールに入ってるのにめっちゃ視線が高くてどんな巨人やねん!ってなった笑 まだ無料分の1ステージしかやってないけど、楽しかったし課金する予定。 無機質な感じがとても好き。
So worth it
best liminal game that is available for mobile
Bugged – Does not run
Not compatible with 16 inch MacBook Pro M1. Waste of time and HD space. Avoid.
Great demo
So I bought the app and it had very good graphics. I beat the first version and it was so fun. But I did not toiletries by the full version yet but I think it’s a bit over priced so if you could lower it just a little I think that would be better. Overall it has great graphics and the full version is a bit overpriced but the demo is great. Sincerely, Me
歩くだけ
ただ迷路を歩いて新しいエリアを目指すゲーム?ホラー要素も何もなく、ただ歩くだけのため何が面白いのかよく分かりませんでした
あと少し😭
課金しないと他のやつができないの萎えた… 内容は面白い
