Ī chart depicting and portraying Miniclip's growth across early business years As of October 2010, 8 Ball Pool was finally released, after Miniclip's relentless pursuit and somewhat obsessive tendency of expanding. With a successful game in their possession, Miniclip looked for ways to start shifting their entire game altogether and construct something far more addictive and fun, yet something that still utilized the controls, image and feel of the original.
The game was complex and highly addictive and, before long it had one million active players and was dubbed 'one of the most played games on Miniclip'. The game was described as a 'simple variation of the classic 8 Ball Pool', the primary objective being to pot as many balls as possible before the timer runs out in order to secure a high score sinking balls would add additional time to the clock. In 2008, Miniclip released a game which would later become 8 Ball Pool, whom they fittingly christened 8 Ball Quick Fire Pool.
