Strikes and Spares, Mystic, Harlem, EBD all great. I just can’t stand Flight 2000. KISS is a chore to play too. Something odd you probably have not considered is Farfalla. It’s really a great game. I would suggest not going the Williams route unless it’s Firepower.
Quoted from TheLaw:Nine ball, catacomb, stargazer, big game, quicksilver, meteor, seawitch, F2k (maybe) cheetah, dragonfist....maybe one or 2 more on there but thats the general idea.
Lot of bad and good in that list. Every single classic Stern is not great. Star Gazer and Quicksilver are a bore, F2K? Really? That game is so bad. Catacomb is a horrible design... the rest of the games you listed are MUCH better. Flash Gordon and Paragon are way better games then the rest of the Sterns you mentioned.
Quoted from SantaEatsCheese:I am liking the multi level games. What do you guys think of Haunted House compared to Flash and BK?
It’s horrible. A maintenance nightmare. Black Hole is the better of the two and I can’t stand that game either.
Don’t get stuck on a game that “has two play areas”. It can help some games but don’t assume a game is better or “well designed”, just because there is an additional level.
Flash Gordon is the far superior game on the list thus far. I hate to shoot down others but the best designed Williams two level is actually Jungle Lord. The sound is annoying but the rules are so much better than BK, SF, or (gasps) Pharroh! The gameplay of the other Williams split level tables grows old after a couple hundred plays.
Hell, if you can find one, Barracora is a way better game than even any of those classic Williams.
