Stern Pinball Arcade is free iOS app published by FarSight Studios
Great app but Farsight bugs remain

Inverted nudge bugs? Check. Sound can't be muted on some tables? Check. Too expensive for your average player? Check. However, the actual pinball experience is utterly unmatched, and for a real pinhead like me, it's an easy decision to buy the tables I want and enjoy the hell out of them. This is bar none the best pinball simulation on the market. You should check out Pinball Arcade first, though. It's by the same developer and has a lot more bang for the buck. But there's some tables you can only get here. Without the bugs this would be a 5/5 grand slam, but Farsight seems to regard bug fixing as a low priority, so I regretfully give this four stars. If you're serious about pins, though, there's nothing that comes close
Not too happy with this app
Juuuuice Baby!
Just purchased the AC/DC game for $9.99 and when I want to play it, it knocks me out of the app! I can't even play the game I just bought! I want my money back! Fix your bugs!!!
Another farsight failure?

Problems? Get used to it. These guys are trying to be all things to all people on all platforms. You're not going to get real support or usable feedback. What you will get is strange design and questionable decisions. I have the free version, but I seriously doubt I'll ever buy a table if the support is as bad as it is on the original app.
Purchase problems
Rbwings
Unable to purchase pack one. The app crashes every time you click the buy table pack button. I thought apps were trying to make money?
In-app purchases don't work
Lexerama
I downloaded this to buy the Star Trek game and was offered a combo pack which I've tried to buy many times but it won't allow me to. App just crashes. I guess this version is buggy
Great feel
Moneypuppet
This s a joy to play. Graphics and physics are fantastic. The icade support is great. Thank you for that. Please please please bring Ghost Busters and KISS!!!
DMD too dim
Pinbalman
Games would be more enjoyable if the dmd wasn't so dim - how about making it brighter or adjustable?!
Too few (pricey) tables and not enough development
TabascoMan
I love Pinball Arcade so, of course, I picked up this spin-off. I like that Star Trek and AC/DC are here but, honestly, there hasn't been enough development for this title. Half of the tables can be found on Pinball Arcade, so there's not much choice. Added to that, buying new tables costs ten bucks which is outrageous. The PS4 version has been promising Ghostbusters since December (no word on whether the same title will be on iPhone as well) but it's STILL "coming soon". That said, Stern Pinball has had the same ten tables since it's launch whereas Pinball Arcade has managed to put up a new table every few weeks. I like the app but with no TRON Legacy or Spider-Man or Ghostbusters or anything new, this app is like a blog that's been abandoned by its author. The only thing we get every so often are vague "bug fixes" -- and there's no specific info on which bugs have been fixed. It's just "bug fixes" in the version history and that's it. The menus are also highly unappealing. Please make this better. This title has potential and it feels like Farsight has lost interest in the project.
