Shakhruz thanks for the awesome followup. I played through the first 30 levels with 1.3 and no more crashes! I’ve appended an update to the review as a result and I very much appreciate your dedication.

Hi Swain!
It looks like Apple is working even on sundays :)!
They approved the Carambole update yesterday. The update addresses the stability issue, we have reduced memory usage and that helped (at least on our testing devices) a lot, we have not seen any crashes yet. I hope you will feel that too, and our users can enjoy the game now with no interruptions.
Next update will bring new levels and ability to replay to any level.

Thanks for taking the time to comment Shakhruz, much appreciated and you’re welcome on the review. Please notify the site when you have a major new update and I/we’d be glad to post an update. This is a great little puzzle game so I hope the crashing bit can be nixed so everyone can enjoy without frustration. I reviewed it on an 8GB iPhone with v2.2.1 firmware if it helps you troubleshoot.

Thank you Swain for the review and compliments! We are sorry to hear about crashes and will definitely work on fixing that.

Yeah, gotta have some fanfare for completing all the levels!! That might even be a viable business model… an iPhone dev outfit that only creates pat-on-the-back graphics?

Anyway it’s a shame to hear about so much crashing but I know the readers appreciate that you pointed it out.

Otherwise it looks like a pretty cool game.

Different pool balls are used for each version of billiard pool. Each ball set has a different friction or coating on them which can really make a difference, especially for professionals. Different pool ball establishments will keep several kinds of balls for the different games.
