I have played IM only several times and actually had a decent game even though I didn't know what I was doing. It is not a game for me to own, but will play given the chance . I have a higher pecking list of pins to own.
I have Pin Bot and it will kick my butt but every once in a while it is kind and I get a high score and get close to the Sun. If I need a longer playing time game I play Roadshow with 5 balls. I like the variety.
