What players say
Super addicting, stimulating, and surprisingly deep. Challenging but fair, its one of those "just one more run" games that has insane replay value.

When you flip the flipper the ball go zoom bang zing! Shiny lights, number go up. And lots of colours. And it sounds really cool too. But honestly if there is a better pinball to play on a computer than this I'd like to know what it is! Because there isn't. This one is the best.
I was ready to give up on this game... then it clicked. This is actually fun as hell.
