With only 3 balls, on medium, i found this game surprisingly difficult to wrack up point in!  Guess i just need to warm up to it; it's been a while.

 

Seems a little more complex and janky than Pinball Fantasies. 

[masematte]

10,090,430

 

Yeah it is difficult, but I like it...

[Rick Dangerous]

8,704,730

 

Only took me about 12 games to best my score from last night...lol.  These settings are no joke!

[masematte]

17,772,710 ....is a hard game, but i prefer pinball Fantasie

[Machine]

45,604,720

 

[Machine]

Not sure what I am even doing in this game. 2 million, then 20 mil. Weird game.

48,222,570

 

@Machine same here: but I regonizied that I used the ramp and switch between the tables , and then I get the 20 mil.

This game is terrible!! the flippers are so delayed, just bad!

[Rick Dangerous]

It's an ambitious title....these was a time when i liked it more than pinball fantasies.  Unfortunately the ball and paddle mechanics are a little janky, and that is really the most important thing in a pinball game so......yeah Pinball Fantasies, while simpler and less flashy, is superior game IMO. 

 

I still enjoy it, the tables are cool, but could have been done better. 

[Machine]

I think the game seems just a little laggy. The camera sometimes does not seem to track ball fast enough. Also, not sure if it is the framerate, but game gets "jerky". Still like it, but have no idea the rule-set of the table.

[doctor_shred]

I agree Pinball Fanstasies is a better pinball simulation but I quite like the weirdness of this game.

 

First decent score: 44,820, 610

 

[masematte]

49,326,340  a little bit more 

[Machine]

80,085,200

 

[Rick Dangerous]

73,788,340

 

Yep, starting to get the hang of this one.  All the bonus points are made in the table 2 area, or with the multiplayer from keeping two balls active.  Still annoyingly difficult but starting to have some fun here. 

 

 

[Machine]

I still have NO idea what score points and what doesn't. I will get a score of 2 or 3 mill. for several games, then get a score of 50mill. 

I don't think knowing the ruleset would matter all that much since I don't seem to be able to aim shots.

Just keep the ball in play is my current strategy.

[doctor_shred]

I'm having serious trouble hitting any of the ramps in this game.  It's good to see the scores starting to climb.

 

Here's my next score: 63,423,380

 

 

[masematte]

71.169.500

 

same here , i have no idea , how i get these points, but i seems that you must jump between the tables

......

 

Same here on the ramps. I can count on one hand how many ramps I have hit on purpose. I mostly play "old school Tommy" style and just hit the flippers bllindly....

[Hyper_Eye]

Has anyone compared textured ball to normal ball? Does it make any difference to the framerate? I know that in World Tour Racing turning off the road textures improves the framerate.

[Rick Dangerous]

Let's try turning the ball texture off. Can't hurt!

[Hyper_Eye]

I have played a few games but I haven't gotten a score worth posting yet. I have always liked the Tower table better than the Ruiner table and that is still true today.

Have no idea how I got this score!

[masematte]

101.905.230

 

it was only one perfect ball, with one extra ball and ramp bonus, and then I`ll get 20 Mill x 4 as a Bonus on the End ...
