Quoted from jeffspinballpalace:#20 is in the house. Ordered on Mon and delivered today (Sat). Topper needs an led strip to light it better.

Played a few games and decided to up the balls to five, while I am learning the game. Am having some decent success and the resulting scores are insane. Having two extra balls from the start almost guarantees an extra ball can be earned. I don’t care about the final score now - just playing, watching and learning the game - trying things and seeing the impact on scoring.
Have you figured out how revving the tach with the flippers before plunging works? Seems like a timing thing.
Quoted from luckymoey:I’m close to deciding to buy one but am hesitating over concern the game (rules + shots) is too easy. Usually would never buy a pin without playing but that’s tough these days with no shows or locations near me.
I’ve watched some of the streams (plan on watching more this weekend) and the rules seem similar in depth to most modern pins with some exceptions like POTC and JP2.
Can you, Yelobird or others compare to a spectrum of Sterns. For example: Munsters (shallow), Deadpool/BKSOR/IMDN (moderate), or JP2/Simpsons (deep)? My understanding is that the major code elements are already in the game and updates will only polish.
I like some of the side/minor features, but am mainly interested in the breadth and depth of the major scoring opportunities and strategies for a reasonably skilled, C-B Division type, player.
Watching last night's stream, it seemed like there was a lot to do, and a lot of different strategies that one could take. You could focus on the race and trying to get first place, you could focus on the various creature-battle modes, you could focus on track-builder, or you could focus on RPMs. Plus, I'm sure there was more that I didn't notice. Ball times seemed pretty short when Dominic was playing, so actually accomplishing more than one of those strategies during a game seems difficult. But of course, time will tell.
