Is it possible to create hover text or popup text in PowerPoint? I'd like to
hide some additional descriptions, but have them available to users who will
look at the slide show on their own PCs. Please share how if you know a way
to do this.

I'd appreciate any suggestions you can offer.

Thank you!
 
Quick Trick #16 is probably what you want:

More sophisticated pop ups can be achieved with animation triggers (only
works on mouse click, not mouse over) and VBA (only works in the full
version of PowerPoint, not the Viewer).
