Incredible feat of engineering from the multimorphic development team. Soooo many shots crammed in there, but nothing that is too hard to shoot... Sure the spiral ramp (First of it's kind?!) Is tricky, but once you get the timing down it is incredibly satisfying. Favorite shot has to be the squeeze box combo, getting the upper flippers to juggle the ball back in forth between the small inner loops feels very smooth and honestly it's just surprising it works as well as it does.

Huge variety in modes, and feels much more of a mode based game than previous titles. Having 17 songs in there adds a great deal of variety and longevity to the game. Matt Andrews did a stellar job on the art package for both the LE and SE versions, really makes the P3 stand up against the best competition on the market from an aesthetics standpoint. If you haven't played WAM or a P3 yet, find one near you and play it for yourself.... You won't regret it !

Great game from Elwin as always.... Regardless of fingerpointing, theme integration was fairly poorly handled. Call outs (except for Thanos (who is Okay)) are terrible... Very little variation on music... And of course the infamous yellow kitchen glove(even if it's"true to the comic version"... Come-on...) Asides from that... Amazing game. Really feel like you are practicing tournament skills on this one. Slings are slightly high so out lanes are brutal if you don't maintain control. Gem modes are fun and infuriating. You will quickly learn the ones you love and hate... But when you beat them it always feels good. Time gem is super interesting and having the option for hard vs easy makes it even better. Battle royale is also a blast and love they added it. Wish the CM ramp was more consistent because it's so cool, just rejects harder than my first Prom proposal. Great game def worth a buy and the hype

Second favorite P3 game after Heist. Honestly my favorite use of the CCR playfield, which really shows off the value proposition of the P3 system in general. The fact this game is as good as it is for the fraction of the price of some toppers is absolutely mind blowing. Even having the same shot layout at CCR it feels like a completely different game. Call outs and art are on point really feel like a Diablo Esk rpg especially as you travel to the different zones, each with their own unique music, playfield art and game rules. Light show is beautiful when you get into some of the multiball and combo spell modes.... Very unique rule approach with the health bar, something really only possible because of the system. If you haven't tried it... Do it and you won't regret it.

Wow what a freeking game, played so much of it as all the shows this year because it flows so well. Premium well deserved the longer wait and higher price tag compared to the pro... Although all prices as a whole are just crazy right now and main reason I won't be buying one for my home. My favorite Elwin design ATM (Zilla>AIQ>IM>JP) but the shots all just flow together like melted butter. You'll get into a rythem of 6-10 shots catch the ball and catch your breath because it's such a rush. Not really a huge fan of Godzilla so theme doesn't do much for me personally, but that said objectively they implemented the time with class and executed it well. Love the classic broadcaster voice acting and some of the cheesy movie clips.... But please for TLoG, make the destruction MB movie clip skippable via l/r flipper press. It's cool the first time, and second and even third.... But it's not a moment that requires a 20 second game freeze every other ball. All in all, amazing game would absolutely recommend to any one looking to get a NIB Stern. Great job Keith, Et. Al.

Great flipper! I know they wanted to use assets already available but wish artistically it differentiated its self a bit more from Elwin JP, but that's my only major complaint (other than the price of home pins these days but this is the world we live in and not the pins fault)

But great shot design and amazing flow.... Thing can really get you in the groove. Rule depth is there, but easy to pick up and have a good game regardless of experience. Hats off to Jack for pouring his heart and soul into this pin, it shows and I hope this is the start of a long lasting tradition of great pins to go from his mind into wood and wireform.

My current favorite game on the P3, revolutionary way of showing off rules and story via the playfield screen. Crane is one of the most innovative toys ever and just a great game all around. Tough game but once you get the shots down, it has some really good flow. Not a ton of physical mechs on the lower playfield, but great use of the ball tracking technology to make interactive rollovers with the cash and police cruisers/armored cars. Can't wait to see what comes next!
