Virtual Snooker is a sports simulation video game developed by Celeris and published by Interplay Productions as an entry in the Virtual Pool franchise, the second in the series after Virtual Pool and the first spin-off from pool games, focusing on the game of snooker. The game was released on DOS in July 1996 and is the first game in the series game to contain snooker as a playable game (the next was Virtual Pool Hall in 1999).
Virtual Snooker was released the year after the original Virtual Pool, and uses the same game engine many of the same digital assets as the previous installment.[3] However, whilst Virtual Pool featured four different types of pool to play, Virtual Snooker only presents the ability to play traditional snooker, as the name suggests. Originally released only for DOS, it was later ported to Windows 95 and Windows 98 (in a single three-platform release), distributed by SoftKey.[4]
