Top five favorite pins of all time. Glad the theme is from the comic and not the movie! Putting away degenerates in a post apocalyptic setting, Deadworld multi ball, sniper in the tower, battling a human tank--- All provide a dazzling variety of shots! Drop targets, kickback, habitrails, ramps, loops, this table has everything a great table should have, especially when it offers that alternative game play!

Absolutely hate it. I would rather be stuck on a deserted island with only Gottliebs Dragon, or Yeehaw, or any machine form the sixties instead. I get it, I get it, the industry needed to evove and experiment with new concepts to adapt to a changing market and appear to kids stuck to their home video games counsels, but crap man. Really? The animations remind me of the Dancing Baby video that went viral before going viral was a thing. And that was Creepy as ****. Ok, am I being too harsh? No, this table blows.

In the future, popular spacewear includes mandatory thongs worn overtop of clothing. A+ for the art.
I love it when she tells me to "make a tube shot". Not sure what the story is though, it reminds me of looking through a book as a child and only looking at the pictures without reading the storyline. Tables from this era never needed to explain themselves. Xenon is like an evil corporate alien overloard sitting atop a very tal tower and you must escape her? Who knows, drains like a b*tch but addicting a hell to play! The first table I ever owned. My girlfriend especially appreciates the proportional and very clenched buttox.

Brutal. Reminds me of Lemi. Art and Theme are unparalleled. Weird as ***. Soundtrack, eerie, creepy, and the way it narrates to you is like you were playing against a demon in a chapter strait out of Enter Player One. Would take the layout of shots and complexity of scoring rules over new tables any day.

A great 90's table and VERY Steve Richie. The lighting is dark, and the strobing lights (LED or stock) disorient the player and forces you to keep track of the ball or loose it to drain. This, in conjunction to the layout and overall speed of the games, fits the jet fighter theme PERFECTLY. I really enjoy the upper playfield flippers and drop targets, and the orbits are very fun. Multiball is mesmerizing. Great game for the price they sell for!

I wish I could own this table, it is my girlfriend and I's favorite to play together. It is easy to get a mutiball, and has all of the elements a modern pre DMD table should have. It is very similar in feel of play to Class of 1812, only it is WAY more colorful. This reason I rate this so highly is its theme. I love this era Gottieb tables because they didn't need to license EVERY table to some band or movie, they excersized creativity and they had the guts to market WACKY themed tables like this. Its whimsical, light hearted, and JUST PLAIN FUN!

For one second, please, think about this with me: You are driving across country, say route 66, on your own quest of self understanding. The sun is setting, your throat is feeling dry so you pull off and into the loose gravel lot of some wooden saloon that's seen better days. Waking past the other parked motorcycles, trucks, horses you hear banjos and tuba's and as you kick open the swinging doors you don't know what to expect. What you walk into is a classic American Honky Tonk filled with cowboys, fruit people, and beautiful women in the middle of a GIANT FOOD FIGHT to the amazing POLKA tunes cranked out by a band of German Cacti.

Whoa, seriously, who comes up with this stuff? I'd like to shake their hand. This table is a freakin' goldmine of fun. hands down.

One of my favorite pins, hands down, NEVER GETS OLD. Even at my nearby arcade when this table is placed alongside terminator two, twilight zone, Addams family ect. I never get off this machine. Classic theme strait out of a AD&D Dungeon Mater's guide, drop targets, kickouts, spinners, well placed bumpers and a manga-lock snake pit? There is nothing I would alter about the playfield, (except removing the generous side drains, but where is the fun in that haha). Sure it is dated compared to the sound of new DMD tables, but who cares, if i wanted to play something like jersey jacks I would just go play slots in Atlantic city. Gorgar plays like a vintage game, and offers unique and challenging shots, making it a game you want to sink quarter after quarter into in order to light that damned snake pit! Gorgar. . . Hurt. .. Damn right y'are bub! oh, and in terms of the art, do you ever wonder why Barbarian blacksmiths take so much time and effort crafting and enchanting exquisite helms, while equipping their damsel saving warriors with nothing else but a loin cloth? So many existential mysteries reside in the fun but blood boiling table. My last comment-- That shadow lich sitting all nonchalant on his cold stone throne on the back glass, seems like an excellent villain for a second edition table, am I right?? ;]
