The Hustle: Detroit Streets lets players take on the role of either Jack Stone or Kat Hudson as they make their way through the pool halls and clubs of Detroit. As an unknown pool player, down on luck and out of money, you must make a name for yourself by becoming the top player in the city by racking up points and earning cash. Players hone their pool skills and work their way to the top of the pool circuit through two different game modes -- single-Story Mode, in their quest for respect and cash, or Single Game, where they can practice their skills by playing one-off matches against AI opponents. Additionally, players can play pool using multiplayer and multiplayer over Wi-Fi where they can try to run the table against other gaming pool sharks. All of the modes feature a number of trickshots and challenges, which allow players to earn prize money, face off against other players and buy new items such as clothes and cues at local shops.
