Pinball HD Collection

I got this on sale for 3.99 USD and I'd say I got a steal. Are these the newest graphics? Of course not, the game came out in 2016 and some of the boards are more polished than others. I haven't played them all yet, but just like the real thing they range from easy to maddening. You can change your camera angle, allow the camera to follow the ball, even change the ball physics. The arrow keys being the flippers didn't bother me much. One of the tables, Jungle Style, stopped working for no good reason, and several of the tables seem designed to make the player lose. But I loved Zombie Attack and Dream Land. If you even find one table you love for the price, definitely snap it up on sale. It's certainly cheaper than going to the arcade to play the machines, and right at home too. EDIT: Dug out an old pair of 3D glasses, the kind for DVDs, and it indeed works with the game, and makes the tables look trippy. Sweet!

Really tried to give this game a chance but, like the developers, I have decided to give up on it. It has the makings of a reasonable budget pinball game but unfortunately it is pretty bug ridden (the ball or plunger can get often stuck or lost) and there's no option for rebinding keys (the default is to use the arrow keys). Some of the tables are relatively fun (e.g. the race car one) or novel (e.g. the retro game one). Others are boring or too hard (e.g. the viking one where nobody seems to get a reasonable score). The sound and visuals are generally fine but overall there's a fairly shoddy feel to it which makes it hard to recommend above the more polished pinball games on Steam.

Si le tenes piedad al hecho de que no podes configurar el teclado ni el gamepad y tenes que jugar con las teclas de cursor. por defecto... salvando ese pequeño gran detalle, una vez en el juego es entretenido, 16 mesas muy lindas. Solo para muy fanáticos... A mi me gustó pero porque mi adicción a los pinball hace que sea piadoso con los problemas descriptos en el párrafo anterior . La solución para este tipo de casos se llama "Joy to Key", un programita que se descarga libremente pàra remapear teclas o mapear teclas a botones y, de esa forma, podes jugar con el gamepad sin problemas. Eso si, compralo con mucho descuento, sino el precio seria elevado para lo que recibis :)

very basic pinball game but still entertaining. I am like others frustrated by the lack of being able to reconfigure controls as I put these tables on my pinball cabinet and without being able to map the controls it makes it a pain to get working with the cab buttons. I would not pay over a fiver for this game but for its current price its not bad.

Spart euch Zeit und Geld, das Spiel ist absolut nicht zeitgemäß. Wer nur einen 10 Jahre alten Office PC sein Eigen nennt und unbedingt Flipper daran spielen will, für den mag das eine Lösung sein. Die Grafik ist grottig, wird nur auf eure eingestellte Auflösung skaliert, wird also schlechter, je besser, größer und hochauflösender euer Monitor ist. Wenigstens macht das Spiel einen hochkant gedrehten Monitor mit. Aber: ihr spielt mit den Pfeiltasten und könnt die Tastenbelegung nicht ändern. Das ist wirklich ein Witz. Auf meinem durchaus brauchbaren Mittelklasse-PC mit Ryzen 7 3700X und RTX 2070 Super fühlt sich das Spielen an, wie auf meinem Amiga damals. Und es sieht auch so aus.

It's just like the mobile port, even down to the controls!

old but goated, I dare you to beat my highscore in The Deep
