As a lifelong pinball enthusiast I decided to try this even though I prefer "real" and licensed tables and, personally, I lean no on this. These are more basic tables, or as our community calls them "homebrew", and while the physics aren't the worst out there (much better than those god-awful Zen Studios physics), they're hit-and-miss and the tables are kinda blah in appearance except for the score displays, which are quite nice. The tables are fairly easy to pick up and play too, but their design and play doesn't really leave a lot of replay value unless you're going for the achievements. There's also no multiplayer which is just wrong. The price is good and you get one full table for free (the rest are a buck, get the all tables bundle and you'll save more, they can all be had for under $5 during good sales), so you can try before you buy. It's okay if you want an alternative to the licensed/official and more expensive stuff out there (Pinball FX, Pinball Arcade, Zaccaria Pinball) but it's far from the best collection.

Нормальный такой Pinball.
Malzbie's Pinball Koleksiyonu, 1990'ların tarzında tilt masalarını sunuyor. Tamamen fiziksel olarak hesaplanmış oyun özellikleri, gerçekçi grafikler, çarpıcı sesler ve animasyonlu nokta vuruşlu ekran, eski güzel günlerin hissini size geri veriyor!
Bon jeu, bien pour s'amuser sans se prendre la tête.
"Malzbie's Pinball Collection" is is not a complete game. It's an advertisement/demo, and you have to pay more money through DLC to actually unlock the game. What do you get if you let the deceptive and shady marketing win and pay the DLC toll to unlock the game? "Malzbie's Pinball Collection" is a really badly made pinball simulator with all the content paygated. The game itself, if you get suckered into buying any of the tables (seriously, don't waste your money) is awful. The graphics are sub-par, and worse, the optimisation is a train wreck. There's considerable input lag that makes the flippers totally unresponsive at times. The table designs are garbage with gaps larger than they should be so you'll get the pleasure of watching your ball slide through gaps that just shouldn't be there... it's a huge failure. But remember... you don't get the full game unless you pay up.The purpose of this advertisement is to get you to shell out a whopping $9 USD to unlock content needed for the full game, and I don't recommend you do that either. This game is fairly dated at 8 years old... and even back then it looked old and busted compared to contemporary, professionally made 3D games of the same period. It looked bad then, it looks worse now. On the important matter of pricing and value for gamers, there's a lot going on here with monetisation, so this really shouldn't be considered a truly free product because of that. As an advertisement, this is only free in the same way that adverts on Youtube and banner ads in your browser are. This is a game demo that's been dumped on Steam to advertise another Steam store page in the hopes of raking in some cash. Just because advertisements are free, doesn't mean they're worth your time. It's important to understand there's a formal process to create a demo/page for a game which hasn't been followed here: https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/store/application/demos While it might seem like an inocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and in some ways harmful. This advertisement is taking up marketing space and visibility that would be better made available to a developer that's done the right thing and created a full game. Instead, that visibility is given over to a demo/advert that's been published incorrectly and is polluting the marketplace. It's unclear if this mistake was made through incompetence or a deliberate intent to mislead gamers. Often developers may choose to incorrectly publish demo/advertisements as separate games as a cheap way to bypass paying Valve for marketing presence on the Steam front page, which may seem clever to them, but it's harmful behaviour and it's not good for gamers. Even after that, you're expected to pay up $9 USD to unlock content through DLC purchases. The game should not be considered completely unlocked until you empty your wallet for the developer. This is misleading and predatory pricing on a product falsely marketed as "free". In terms of public reception, this failed. There's over 130 million unique gamers visiting Steam every month. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 15 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Advertisements and incorrectly published demos don't add +1 to your game collector count, they aren't full games. It's impossible for me to recommend this incorrectly published advertising spam to gamers, you deserve better than adverts.
Malzbie's Pinball is sort of the ugly duckling of virtual pinball. It's easy to dismiss it at a glance based on the art. At first I lumped this in with the many unremarkable low-effort digital pinball titles floating around, based on my initial visual impression and lack of experience. I was very, very wrong. And the more you enjoy playing, the more charming the quirky art, DMD animations, and sound design become. The developer's long-term support and commitment to basic quality of life features and physics refinements make this collection, and Malzbie's new project ("Only Pinball") essential for the enthusiast. After playing hundreds of virtual tables and dozens of real ones, I returned to Malzbie's and discovered something I didn't expect: pure joy. These are not complex or difficult tables, but they are carefully designed and playtested, and elegantly express the creator's unique inventiveness and love for the game. There is always something surprising or clever that makes me laugh or rub my chin on these tables. This is a rare experience on original tables from the big pinball platforms now, which can often be over-engineered or formulaic, despite their superiority in other regards. It's the kind of momentary enchantment one gets from encountering a fascinating cuckoo clock: many can engineer precise and sophisticated clocks without having the slightest clue how to make you smile, laugh, or wonder; this latter skill is Malzbie's greatest strength. The physics feel different and satisfying (closer to Pro Pinball: Timeshock! than to the other modern competitors, which is a compliment). While the art may be primitive, it grows on you once you observe the amount of single-handed care that has gone into every aspect of the game. It reminds me of many shareware titles I played in the nineties where the developers didn't have the money or connections to hire artists, but poured themselves into making the assets as beautiful and functional as they could with the skills (and volunteers) available to them. It is in no way an insult to call this innocent style "child-like" while acknowledging its contrast with the mature and tasteful game design underlying it. It is a wonderful experience that can be had for a pittance, and I appreciate the developer's commitment to continually bringing these fascinating virtual toys into existence to the gratitude of thousands of inner children.
it's ok. has bugs thou. in multi-ball sometimes it miscounts the balls, when you're down to one ball but it thinks you have two. When you lose that ball, game wont setup the next ball.
bad, go play demon tilt
