Just search for "Atomic Pinball" and try it for free, together with the new table "Masks of Glory".
Revenge of the Rob-O-Bot is classic pinball at its best; with fantastic physical feel, great sound and realistic gameplay. And a bit rugged and worn from its years of use in the arcades, as it should be.

How to play
There is no “one way” to play a pinball game. Most things give you points and points are what you are trying to get.
Shoot the ramps and hit everything that blinks, especially blinking arrows. Combos are the best and so are jackpots. And don’t forget to increase your bonus ‘cause that will certainly give you a lot more points in the end.
Your main goal is to defeat the evil Rob-O-Bot and you do that by completing all the missions. There are five of them and you start them by entering the Mission controll. If you are not in a mission, the mission control is always opened. Hit it, and follow the instructions.
Good luck!
Tips
- Use one flipper at the time
- After you've flipped, drop the flipper back down immediately
- In general, don't flip any more than you need to
- Push the device upwards to tilt
- Watch and listen to the game while you play to learn the rules

Solid table all around...

Wanted to give props to the devs here. I gave 5 stars even though it could be improved, because it's still better than most iOS pinball out there. & I have very high standards being a pinball addict and owner of real machines. Yet this still gets my stamp of approval. If physics were just a little better tuned then it would be better yet, but they are good enough, just FYI to those like me wondering the same thing and unsure if they want to spend the few dollars to find out. Go for it.
IOS pinball at it's best

This is my new favorite IOS pinball game. Technically, the game is top notch with great ball physics and many nice touches including support for landscape and portrait modes. Artistically, the game is extremely appealing to me. I love the graphics style and sounds. The theme is awesome too. Besides, any game with the word "lesbionic" in the description is bound to be great. Rob-o-bot is certainly that! I would like to see an attract mode where the camera flies over the table. It would also be great if the game let you know when you are approaching and exceed your high score. Congratulations and thanks to Color Monkey for this great release.
Good so far.

This game is pretty well made. Great deal for the price. Make the top flipper hold and fix a few small issues / camera options and this is a five star game.
Pleasantly surprised

I was surprised how much I liked this game. Great style, the dmd animations are simple but well done. Love the small details like the reflections of the dmd and backbox on the glass. Best of all the physics are really great. Not exactly realistic but way better than some of the other offerings on the app store. All around solid game. Hope they make more intricate tables with this kind of quality. They could easily outshine pinball hd.
Ruined by touch controls.

The fact that this lovingly-crafted game is perfect in all ways sadly proves that you can't have a pinball game without buttons. If you can port this to the DS, 3DS, PSP or even a web-based version, you'll make me very happy. However, if anyone thinks they won't share my gripes with the controls, I recommend this game with zero hesitation. It's wonderfully done!!!
Not great but promising

Given the gold standard used to be Gameprom, this holds up quite well to that - visuals are well done, seems to be some decent depth, nice selection of shots. However, it's definitely lacking compared to the current gold standard, Pinball Arcade. The physics here, while decent, aren't as good as PA's. flipper behavior seems a bit finicky, if you're trying to hit a ball multiple times in rapid succession. But the thing I hate on this is the camera - there's one option, show part of the screen and follow the ball. Give me a full-pin, multiple viewpoint, and I'll add a star instantly.. Get the physics up to Pro Pinball (coming in the spring) or PA, and I'll add another.
Fantastic-o

This is, bar none, the best original iOS pinball money can buy. Visually, the lighting absolutely destroys what industry stalwarts, Farsight Studios, have been able to bring to the market thus far, including their efforts on consoles. Colors and art are vibrant, and the playfield has convincing depth and a great sense of simulated reality. The table is well-designed, with plenty of flow and an enjoyable mission structure you'd expect from a modern pin. As it should be, Game Center leaderboards are fully supported, as are portrait and landscape views. The physics are a bit simplified and feel somewhat scripted compared to heavyweights like Pinball Arcade and Zen Pinball, but they are fantastic nonetheless. Ball feel falls comfortably between the somewhat muted Zen engine and the too-quick, slippery physics of PA. It feels properly weighty and authentic. My main issue is with the lack of accurate nudging control. The app description—there is no in-game help—tells me to shake my device to nudge, but I found this completely ineffectual in negating drains that would have been recoverable, given proper tools for the job. It may seem like a minor gripe, but it becomes a major sticking point once you've watched your thirtieth ball blast straight down the middle without any recourse at your disposal. Options (including shake sensitivity and selectable camera views) are completely absent. If you love pinball, this should be an instant-buy proposition. Even casual players will be able to appreciate the quality feel, top-notch presentation, and straight-up fun provided by this AAA pinball title.
Nice, but needs a little work
Redrioja
I'd enjoy the game more if you would: *) Remove the reflection of the backpanel on the playfield. Thats some kind of "realism" I really dont need. *) Change the behaviour of the upper flipper so it does not "pulse" but can be held just like the regular ones. *) Add some more camera angles, namely a lower angle Apart from that, it could be a **** game!
Great!

I really love the table design and music; this game might just have the most realistic physics of any pinball game on the iphone. Nobody has been able to perfect them though. In this case the ball feels a bit too weighty and fast.
Distracting dimming effect
BeLLShocK
I seriously hate the dimming effect of the lighting when the ball is in play. It's driving me nuts! It doesn't add to the game and it's WAY beyond distracting.. it's annoying as hell. I NEED an option to turn that off, Please!
