Quoted from Mr68:

Someone told me that Fathom is the only game depicting a murder in the artwork and I cant think of another.
The mermaids ripping off the diver's mask

Really? I thought they were pulling him to safety....back to his boat.

I guess I'm not into pinball the much, because I've never spent over $2000 for a machine. But I do have Fathom, only because I paid less than $2,000 for it. It is totally awesome to look at. The colors are vibrant, and I love those sea nymphs. The game play is great....drops, spinner, multi ball, and speech.

With other pins selling for 10K up to 30K, I suppose I'd answer "yes" Fathom is worth the $$$$ it is currently demanding.

In some ancient tales, nymphs pursued young men and would not take “no” for an answer. Some nymphs were downright dangerous. ... Nymphs attracted by his beauty lured Hylas away and abducted him. In another story, a young Sicilian herdsman named Daphnis pledged his loyalty to a nymph.

Moral of the story: If you encounter a sea nymph while diving, say "yes" if you want to live.

Quoted from Mr68:Here he is drowning in the out hole.

I disagree. I think he's praising the nymphs for a great time they had.
