Now that Spooky has a few pins under their belt, I'm wondering what other's favorite it? For mine, it's Rick and Morty, the rules, flow, and theme integration are stellar.

Yeah, Rick and Morty is probably their best so far (I am an owner). The one I enjoy playing the most? Ultraman. I do need more time on Scooby.
Quoted from chuckwurt:Rick and Morty, and it’s not close right now. Most complete, least bugs, etc. Takes some dialing in, but plays great after that. TNA shouldn’t be on the list. Spooky just built that one. But if it must, it’s a very close second.
What's the argument to not include TNA? I get Scott did almost all the work, but Spooky helped do the screen animations and playfield/cab art. Is it because he made it before Spooky? Cause you can almost argue the same thing with Ben Heck and AMH...
I'd argue Domino and Jetsons should be cut before TNA. But really, it's not worth splitting hairs
I love my rick and morty, the coding is pretty damn good
was so close to selling it, glad I didnt!
butter cab all the way.
Rick and Morty has amazing code and theme integration but I *hate* how the left side of the game shoots. For my tastes, ACNC has the best upper pf of any game, really fun code and shoots well overall once you learn the shots.
AMH is a close second.

Spooky did all those games from the ground up. Ben heck worked for spooky when AMH was made I believe. TNA was done when spooky built it. Didn’t know about the animations and art, but you don’t play either of those. It’s 90% Scott.

AMH started pre Spooky making pinball if I recall correctly? It started on his youtube channel
I thought Charlie said Jetsons was designed by The Pinball Company, and they just tweaked it a bit.
I haven't played anything other than TNA, but I think TNA is so far their best. I have watched videos on all the other games from them. I think Rick and Morty is very good, but I have a soft spot for original non-themed games. There is just something about TNA that just really captures the essence of what pinball is. It just does it so well.
Even though there were some bumps with the TNA 2.0 roll out, I really like Spooky as a company, and I'm glad we have them in the pinball world.

AMH was being made independently by Ben Heck before Spooky got involved with manufacturing. Spooky helped bring the game to market. Seems to be in the same category as TNA to me. I still consider all of these to be Spooky games. Batman 66 and EHOH are still Stern games even though they were designed by different studios.

IIRC Ben had built a AMH prototype and Charlie ~made changes to make it manufacturable.
Rick and Morty is probably the best. I own Rob zombie, Alice Cooper, Rick Morty, and Halloween, but my favorite is Rob zombie.
I'll always have a soft spot in my heart for America's Most Haunted.
Great pin. And reminds me of Spooky and Charlie's early days before things got rolling.
LTG : )
It's nice to see some love for AMH. That's probably my personal favorite. If nothing else, it has to be the most ambitious and loaded Spooky game... Morgue Door bash target, motorized target bank, battle magnet, moving ghost sculpt that follows the ball, and the Hell-a-vator physical ball lock. What other game has a moving scoop shot/ball lock in the middle of a ramp? My friends all love this game. It definitely takes a well above average amount of dialing in to get it to it's full potential tho.

I have a Rob Zombie as well and love it. I’m not suggesting it’s Spooky’s best pin, but it’s better than people give it credit for. Call outs are amazing. It shoots fine. It does help if you like Rob Zombie, which I do.
I remember about 10 years ago when the Midwest Gaming Classic was stuffed into the Sheraton, it was like a treasure hunt - games in the hallways, wander around and there are games and vendors in empty hotel rooms - I walked into one and there was Pinball Zombies From Beyond The Grave -
I bought the translite...........

What is this?!
Played em all. Own Scooby and Halloween.
Different strokes. Better like the theme with Spooky
Not a fan of Bricks and Mortar. Hate the theme and Scooby quality has come a LONG ways since then.
Of those I've played, I actually enjoy AMH the most. Does anyone have a link to the rocking "Ghost Squad" song from it?

Available here with a lot of the source files as AMH is semi-open source https://www.benheck.com/amh/
