Both are fun games but there are far more shots on flintstones and less repetitive play. Besides playability you can also do more to make the playfield stand out on Flintstones. The buildings can be lit up which really makes them stand out very simple LED strips as well as the dinosaur wireform.

Quoted from RTS:

I appreciate the responses, especially the detail of what makes you prefer one over the other instead of simply saying I like one more than the other.
I think the difficulty of scoring a Super Jackpot on FT might distinguish it as having the greater single challenge over anything on Flintstones.
But yeah I see the overall layout as more repetitive and basic. I suspect FT might have greater appeal as an original themed classic that I assume more people have played.
What about trade value, given similar condition? What's the current price check of the two?

Like all pins here during the Rona they have both shot up in price. As always condition is ultimately how you set the price. Honestly I don't think you could go wrong picking either one as I enjoy them both I just prefer Flintstones.
