8-Ball Slots Slot Review

Updated: 15.08.2025

8-Ball Slots is a 3-reel slot game with 1 active pay line, from Playtech. The slot is based on the popular game of pool and set on a green pool table, with the symbols made up of different-colored pool balls. Bright and colorful, 8-Ball Slots is the kind of game likely to attract the casual player. The soundtrack is funky and upbeat. The game is simple in construction, which is what gives it a retro feel. There are just 2 stake levels, resulting in 2 prize levels. If anything, the simplicity of this game may be a drawback to more serious gamers.

Bonus Rounds and Payouts

8-Ball Slots is a fairly straightforward game without any Scatters, Wilds, or bonus rounds. Yet, in this game, there are numerous fun and interesting ways to achieve a win.

The game gives out its tiniest rewards when 3 striped or 3 solid balls come to rest on the single pay-line. 3 balls of the same color, be they all striped or all solid, will also pay a slightly larger reward. There are also a couple of rewards given out for landing 2 of a kind.

The largest rewards go to players who can get 3 matching balls on a pay-line. The top honors go to those lucky enough to get 3 8-Balls. If players are betting at the top level, 3 8-Balls will pay out 2000 coins.

The other balls payout as follows on a maximum bet:

  • Three striped 14 or 15 balls: 200 coins;
  • Three striped balls numbered 12 or 13: 160 coins;
  • Three striped 10 or 11 balls: 140 coins;
  • Three solid balls made of 7 or 9 components each create 120 coins.
  • Three solid balls, each about the size of a 5 or 6 ball (i.e., approximately 10.8 to 12.4 centimeters in diameter), containing 100 coins each.
  • Three solid 3 or 4 balls: 80 coins;
  • Three solid 1- or 2-foot balls: 60 coins.
  • 10 coins: Any three striped balls.
  • Any three spherical solids: 4 disks of metal;

Additional Game Features

8-Ball Slots offers two ways to place your bets: high and low. You can opt to bet low by clicking "Bet One" and, alternatively, go for the high bet of "Bet Two." Each option allows you to adjust the amount you're betting to fine-tune your wager to your liking.

In the game, there is exclusively one special symbol: the one depicting the 8-Ball, surrounded by a star-like halo. It might technically be considered a non-jackpot symbol since it doesn't activate any bonus features (with the possible exception of the 8.5 bonus feature, which is a bit of a stretch)—but it certainly pays out like a jackpot symbol, giving players the highest possible amount that they can receive in any single instance during the game.

The game also has an "AutoPlay" feature that allows players to spin reels on their desired bets automatically. It is recommended that players first get a feel for the game before they switch on "AutoPlay" mode.

Summary

8-Ball Slots is a simple game that's very easy to play and is definitely easy on the eyes. Newcomers to the slot machine world would be hard-pressed to find a better way to ease into it than this game. Reels do not get much more straightforward than this, and neither do the pay lines. It might not feel like a "real" slot machine to many veteran enthusiasts, given that there's no real way to lose big or win small, but make no mistake: There's just as much potential here for actual money to change hands as there is with the mechanically more complex neighboring machines.
