Don't be deterred by the naysayers. This is a great conversion of a great pinball classic. Of course the graphics aren't going to be as snazzy as other pinball games that have been built from scratch for the iPhone/iPod Touch. Some people just can't appreciate a good game of pinball. Frankly, I much prefer them with 2D graphics as they are much easier on the eye. Most 3D tables try to overcomplicate things or they try to hide less than stellar table designs behind their glitz. I'll take a fun game of pinball over an up-to-the-latest-minute title any day of the week.
As good now as it was back then.

A great and fun pinball game with 4 tables. All of them are colorful, full of action, and simple to play with easy to figure out objectives. I played this a lot on my Amiga and always enjoyed it. Worth the price!
Love this game!

I'm addicted! I have every pinball app available and these games are the best! Both applications are great gaming, but my favorite is the Stones and Bones table, can't put it down! Please Cowboy's can we have more???? I would love another four tables! Hanna7801

The lack of the 5 ball option isn't really a true port. The game sometimes slows down waaay to much and then when speeds up you can't save yourself. Please add the 5 ball option in, I'm sure I'm not the only one asking for this. On the good side, it truley does have the feel of the original, and even though the graphics are outdated it is still fun to play. I was hoping for more options at a $6 cost, but hopefully that will be in updates. *edit* c'mon guys, even with the upgrade still no 5 ball option? I still give it 4 outta 5 but that option needs to be in the game.
Amazing

This is my favorite pinball game, with Pinball Dreams coming in right behind it. All the tables are distinctly fun, I can get lost for hours on any one of them. I love the retro graphics and sounds. This really is a high quality port and worth the money. Now bring on Illusions!
Not Bad

The pinball is fairly entertaining, but if you want a true pinball experience then purchase monster pinball it way more realistic. The flow of the pinball is not fluid. I would have preferred one pinball game that was more realistic than 4 games the come somewhat close to a true pinball game. If you like pinball you will like this game but for myself who is a pinball fanatic it just missed the mark. I do have to say that the tables are really nice but it seems animated and fake. Monster pinball feels like I am playing a miniature pinball table in my hands. I guess if I had not downloaded monster pinball first than this would have gotten five stars. But after playing monster I couldn't feel right giving this 5 stars
Sometimes the Past can bring awesome things!

This is a classic I can't precise how many hours (ok, days... better: weeks) I spent playing on a PC 486 DX2 66 MHz - which was already a perfect port since the original game was launched for the Amiga. The port to iPhone is absolutely incredible. I must say the taller screen made the iPhone ever a better platform for this game. The animation flows smooth, seems better than on the original version. The music and SFX remains exactly as the original - which is fundamental, since it plays a considerable part on the fun. (and it is amazing how people knew how to make incredible music for games on that time with that few kilobytes). Note: There is music all the time during gameplay - and yet, the whole game is just 4 Megs! (long live to MOD Amiga sound format!) The price is definitely higher than the average iPhone game - but considering I never paid for the PC version that came to me from a friend... who copied from a friend... it is more than fair. Even if you never played the original game (so, not emotionally attached as I am) it certainly provides addictive hours of distraction. Buy!
