Video pinball, variety style.

While this is not the best video pinball I've seen, there certainly is plenty to play here. The screen scroll is a bit stiff, but otherwise the gameplay is satisfactory. You have 4 tables to choose from: Medieval Knights, where you battle trolls, dragons, and other dark-age mythical relics; Rock Fantasy, where you help the group Rock Makers make it to the big time (and maybe even see a video clip!); Urban Chaos, in which you try to restore order to a society out of control; and Monkey Mayhem, the adventure of scientist Binford T. Dremmel trying to collect the repair tools for his spaceship and escape the Monkey Planet. You can set the options for 3/5/7 balls per game, 1-4 players, score visibility (even choose the colour of the scoreboard!), and game volume control. Be patient; each table takes time to enter & exit. You can even view the high score tables for the games you play...though these cannot be saved. Adequate for those seeking to add pinball to their game collection(s). Good music soundtrack, too!

Loads slow on Playstation but still fun

This was my favorite pinball software for the PC. The Playstation version is very accurate but loading is rather slow. The game comes with four different tables (a rare thing these days).
Medieval Knights (fight dragons and other nasties), Urban Chaos (police action thriller), Monkey Mayhem (silly animal planet), Rock Odyssey (bring you rock band to the top).
The graphic appear a little grainy as they were designed for the higher resolution of a computer monitor and the ball play can be very fast.
While this was one of the best on the PC, it is not quite as good as some of the Pro Pinball series as far as graphics goes.
My favorite table is Medieval Knights and this one takes advantage of the machine. Your ball may change substance from normal to stone, extra-heavy, a rolling ring, or a glowing ball of energy.
Play is fun and realistic (except where it does what a real table cannot like switching bal types). You can play with multiple players and set the number of balls to 3, 5 or 7. The game keeps track of high scores (although you will need a memory card to save them).
