I bought World Snooker (and billiards and pool) from Creative Computers
at AmiExpo.  It does not work properly on my A2000 with a Super Agnus,
and I found the same problems on an Old Agnus A1000.  The game boots,
displays the opening screen and music, grinds the disk like a buzzsaw,
then finally makes it to the game.  But the pointer is screwed up and
there is a strange jumpiness to the display.  The menus seem to be
paralyzed.
 
I sent it back and asked CC to replace it with something else.  If they
send a good copy of World Snooker, I'll post again.  Perhaps I just got
a bad one.  But I wanted to post a warning.  This game was only $20 and
I bought it on impulse, without seeing it running.  Don't be a silly
consumer like me.
