It's fun - that's what matters. The game has clear objectives... it has incentives and payoffs for doing things in better ways.. its approachable and still has more challenging elements for better players.

Do people go around creating threads like "Scared Stiff - worst code ever" -- No, because you don't need encyclopedia, flow chart rules in every game. It's a flavor... not the required baseline. Some games make that the big feature.. others keep it more streamlined.

The game is a nice blend and is fun to play. That's what should make it a good location game.

The irony is... the same multiplier strategy is the biggest objective in Munsters... yet you praise WH20 for it, yet you ignore it in Munsters?

At least in munsters it's not just one big jackpot to chase.. but rather you must build the jackpot first by getting supers for the modes, then get some kitty multiplier going, then roll into the super and multiball and see the points start raining.

Works for AC/DC! And BSD... and MB.. and many many more. As long as the trick is fun and keeps you coming back for more...

Don’t ask complainers what people should be complaining about

Make success down there modify play on the upper pf more. Makes multiple successes to the machine payoff more else where.

I think the lower of got hindered by trying not to diverge from the pro too much.

But I think these are all “improvements” and not fixes. The game is fine how it is.

People just has this distorted belief that every game needs to be the next greatest most advanced thing ever.

That's because depth or complexity is not the end game. It's why people that just compare and measure by just that dimension have it all wrong. The end-game is a game that is SATISFYING and wants you to play more. Depth, toys, humor, whatever... they are all just MEANS to an end. And there is no 'one formula' to achieve it.

Those that try to use a single means as a universal measuring stick are just those out to copy others work, vs understand why it works.

Depth or variety only work if they are interesting paths to take. The special spark game designers are trying to create is that urge to play again and try again..

Obviously the more simple a game is.. the higher risk that people simply 'blow through it' too quickly and have nothing left on the table to explore or challenge them. But that doesn't mean you simply put a mountain in front of them and say "you'll never reach the top.." either.

Did Stern kick your dog or something?

The pinside echo chamber is strong on this title.. and just getting worse and worse every title.
