About this game

Jimmy White's Whirlwind Snooker is a 3D snooker simulator developed by Archer MacLean and published by Virgin. Players can rotate the table and cue through almost any angle, then adjust shot strength and spin to shape each attempt.

An on-screen dotted line previews the cue ball's path, including its next bounce. A dedicated trick-shot mode adds opportunities to recreate classic snooker trick shots, while the game includes a humorous touch: balls pull faces if players take too long.
