Navystan's ratings

So, first worried by all the "PINSIDE hate." When I finally got my CE, I was pleasantly surprised. Overall look was super. Then, within a few games, it was clear I had a great playing pin. I love the flow and speed of flow. Plays fast, but smooth. Lots of satisfying shots even the simple ball lock shot is fun and love the drop target setup. Wish more pins did this. I have had all the JJP pins except for POTC and Hobbit. This is more fun than DI, WW, and GnR. And, it's better than most of all the "A" pins I have owned and played. My only negative is the large screen on the playfield. Dialed in did the playfield screen best, but you can't really see it during gameplay for any real shooting tips.

I purchased the CE before playing knowing if I wanted it I would have to take a little gamble. Well, the gamble paid off. I'm not a big music fan, but I am a big fan of JJP. The game does not disappoint. I knew the lights were second to none, but I didn't know that the game layout was going to be so good. It is. It has great satisfying shots. The combination of left ramp, up to another mini playfield and incorporated ball lock is creative engineering and design. I also really think the soft plunge skill shot is a great innovation and also very satisfying. And, it's also creatively integrated into the game. Like any good pinball, code is king and the code is solid as well. Rules make a game fun. Once you understand the rules and you try to follow them for big scores, you appreciate the playability of the game. And, if you are a casual player and just want to play and hear songs, you can do that too. Another polished, high-end game from Jersey Jack.

I have owned JP2, BM66, GOTG, Munsters from Stern. This is the best Stern I have played, even more than JP2. It's fast and has flow. It has an engaging rule set. Perfect theme integration and art package. Sound and animation, perfect. I didn't think I would keep long term, but I really think I will have for a while now that I have had it for a few weeks.

I have played several times, but just don't understand how this is so highly rated, especially in today's modern pins with much deeper rule sets.

Fun, classic game, but just doesn't have lastability. Only good in a large collection, not a small one.

Great game, love the flow and smooth ramps. Would like to own some day.

Played it several times, but just don't see how it's rated so high. It's art is one of the best, but I don't like the flow.

A classic, but it only lasted 2 months in my collection.

I have owned most of the top pins. This is the first time I felt I could own this for a long time. I want flow, deep rules, and lastability. I like hard as well. I thought Dialed In was hard and it is, but this pin has several hard shots. And, we don't even have version 1.0 yet.
