Owned a Houdini. I would rather play TH, WOZ and DI. Which is why I still own a TH and WOZ. Not saying TH and WOZ are top 5 games - they definitely are not. Both TH and WOZ play smoother than Houdini. And opinions are like assholes, we all have one.

Honest assessment:

Pros
- Code is solid and well integrated theme
- Game looks absolutely stunning - beautiful
- Straight jacket multiball is creative genius
- Trunk lock is an awesome toy

Cons
- Houdini should have been a wide body
- Certain shots in Houdini are designed too tight (see wide body) and create clunky shot experience. This is not "be a better player"; geometry is off
- The power supply issue should be supported by AP. No one should have to pay to solve this issue. Back your product. Just bad form. Sad people now need to list their game for sale and the selling point is "new power supply".

At $5K it's a great value buy. But have to be honest, mistakes were made by AP on their first pin. I'm rooting for their success cause some really good people there.

Agreed. While it's not the best laid out game, the code and theme integration is immersive and awesome. Not worried about resale, not selling. Beautiful game as well.
