Hi. I will take a glance at the 3 in 1 game table in this multi game table post. Multi game tables include more than one type of game. You can configure the table for the game you want with normally not too much hassle.
Let us take a look at two of these tables that are no more expensive than some single game tables.

Questions and Answers
Looks complicated?
Not really, it’s easy enough to switch between the different games. The games basically just sit one atop the other. The bottom game is a billiard table, then the other two games stack on top of the billiard table.
You just flip over the top table bit between foosball and slide hockey or take it off to play billiards, since the billiard table have the legs attached to it and acts as a permanent base.
Is slide hockey the same as air hockey?
Basically, yes. But, an air hockey table has an electric fan that generates airflow to facilitate the movement of the puck across the playing field. A slide hockey game table does not utilize airflow. That means that there is no fan you need to plug in first before you can enjoy the slide hockey game.
There is a listing for this table at Amazon
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Great to have some choices in games to play.
- You also get to test which games you like best. You can then buy a more expensive single game table in the game you like best if you want.
- A 3 in 1 game table is a bargain price wise. It’s not much more expensive than a regular one game table.
Cons
- The table only features only regular slide hockey – no air hockey because there is no fan underneath the table. Air hockey pucks usually slide better because of this airflow. You have to have a place to put the other games while you play billiards.
- You will have to have another pair of hands to help remove/add a game on top of the billiards – but then again who will be stupid enough to play a game of slide hockey on their own?

Questions and Answers
Does it easily switch from game to game?
Rather. The billiard set is on the bottom with the legs attached to it. To play the billiards game you need to use the billiard balls, pool cues and plastic triangle that comes with the table.
To play the foosball game, you need to place the foosball game table on top of the billiards. Dig up the included foosballs and you’re ready to go.
To play the slide hockey, find the pucks and shovers and turn over the foosball field to reveal the slide hockey field on the other side and place it on the billiard table.
What kind of accessories come with the table?
The following should be in the box :
1 x billiard table with supporting frame, 1 x soccer playing field, 1 x hockey playing field, 2 x hockey goal, 26 x robot style foosball players, 2 x goal boxes, 2 x pushers, 1 x puck, 2 x felt pads, 8 x rods, 8 x handles, 1 x billiard ball set, 6 x ball pockets, 2 x pool cues, 1 x plastic triangle, 2 x chalk, 1 x brush, 2 x soccer balls, 1 x manual, 1 x screw set.
