I've owned Dialed In for 2 months now so feel ready to review it
I like the original theme and how it presents as a news bulletin reporting on the disasters that you've created and are trying to stop. Theres a lot of humour in there too, even the ticker tape feeds across the bottom of the screen are funny and I'm still seeing new ones.
The callouts are lower key than Pat's other pins like Adam Family or Twilight Zone which is a bit disappointing as they don't build up the excitement as much as they could but this is countered by the awesomeness of hitting the Big Bang with its light show and sounds which I say is the best shot/feeling in all of pinball - it scores you every lit shot when hit - like a smart bomb on the Defender video game. There is strategy to using the Big Bang
It's a mode based game with each mode being unique & if completed lights a Sim card. Getting the sim card then multiplies the value of ALL pf your corresponding modes. You can stack the modes with muliballs and Bobs mini modes (which can be multiballs or other point scoring opportunities). Using a muliball as an opportunity to collect SIM cards can be a strategy to use as the SIM card shot can be tough
There is the main multiball, 3 Bob's multiballs, Quantum Theatre MB plus 2 mini wizard MBs plus the main Wizard multiball - so lots of multiballs
Its loaded with toys.
* Quantam Theatre which projects an image and catches or throws the ball.
* The QED quy which blocks shots & is a target to hit.
* The "lasers" which are inserts signifying a laser being fired at your flipper and if you don't shoot the source of the laser attack (3 possibilities) it will temporarily disable your flipper power.
* Quatam Mechanic who diverts your ball and basically fights against you - she works for the enemy
* underfield magnets - I think 5 of them
* A trapdoor - turning an outer loop shot into a shot that goes into a subway below the playfield - this is Bob's shot
* a camera - used in some of Bob's modes and high score photos
Last of all it has great flow and lots of shots. So put this together with all the toys, simple to understand but deep rules and you get a great game. I'm seriously selling 3 of my 5 pin collection to end up with DI plus one other ...its that good
