    Announcing a new Pinball website: http://www.pinballzoo.com

    In the future there will be other content, but for now the main feature is Game Guides.
    Just search for a game, and then click the Game Icon to open the game guide for that game

    - The game guides have an interactive Shot Map at the bottom of each guide
    - Click on a rule/tip to view it, and look at the Shot Map to see visual markers
    - You do not need to sign in to see the guides
    - Logged in users can add guide rules and related Shot Map markers
    - You can link directly to the game guide
    - The Guides are optimized to work well on a phone (but editing is better on a PC)

    We are working on getting Playfield pics for as many games as possible - please help if you can. The site has a mechanism for you to upload a playfield image if you have one.

    Thanks for looking - please provide any feedback in this thread.

    Pretty cool.

    I'm just starting to sink my teeth into it....looks pretty snazzy. Nice work

    I like the idea of a more visual format that just a wall of text listing the rules, and how different aspects of the game are separated out.

    looks good, very cool

    Great idea, and very well done!

    I think you should make the text stay a little longer before cycling to the next when there are more than two options. It goes so fast it’s a little hard to follow judging by Iron Maiden.

    I think this could really help casual players. I hope you get the machines I have on route on your site! I’d print up a QR code with a link to the game’s page and stick it on the backglass, apron or top of the backbox.
