Oh dear, I do believe I have the vapors. This page contains content that is not safe for work or other locations with the potential for personal embarrassment. Such as: MORE YOU WIN, MORE THEY'LL STRIP THEIR CLOTHES! CRAZY! (or at least in the Japanese version).

Taking the control of the most famous pool player, you have to play many intense pool games in the best places of the town. To spice up things, four attractive girls will make anything for you, if you are good enough. Are you good enough to conquer all four?

Regional Differences

When the game was brought to the west, the game was heavily censored to make it suitable for all audiences.

Title Screen

Japan	US	World

The US version removes the "Corp." abbreviation and changes the "All Right Reserved" with "Licensed to I.Vics Inc.".

Also, the Japanese version shows a girl in a bunny outfit in the title screen. The International versions remove this because...

...During the title screen, the bunny girl gradually loses her clothes and lingerie until she becomes naked. So wild!

Curiously, while the bunny girl was removed, her "Ya-Da!" is still present in the International versions.

Censorship

Revisional Differences

In 1989, the Japanese version was rereleased as Pocket Gal 2. Despite the addition of the number, this version was the same as the original except for being translated into English. This in turn served as the basis for the International versions.
