FH was my first game way back in 03. Absolutely my favorite game. It was stored for many years in my grandma's basement, and got a ton of play from family. I finally was able to bring it in with the herd, and I still play it every day. Love the theme, the shots are classic, and Rudy.

Rudy. He got me into pinball. Way back when it came out my only goal was to put him to sleep. I wasn't good, so more often than not I didn't get there. Still pumped money in.

It's my favorite, and will be restored soon. Last game to ever leave will be FH.

Quoted from snyper2099:

The rules are there for 1990... It's just way too risky to go for a lot of the shots in the rules.
It's no different than TOM or TOTAN or CV. Great depth but if you are just going for pure score, the rules kind of get in the way. Huge Funhouse scores tend to come from very long ball times.

Had my highest game tonight in a LONG time: 73mil and change. Maybe a half hour game?

I've been really working on setting up a frenzy or super frenzy before starting multiball, and I'm getting better at it.

Also: Funhouse led the way in the sudden love of 'interactive toys' on the pf. Williams REALLY nailed it. Yeah, lots of games had spinners and such, but a talking interactive head? Unreal in those days. Rudy got me HOOKED right away, and that addiction still exists

Imma go play right now.
