Tough one.
Whirlwind is probably my favorite because it has the first "wizard mode" and was the first game to take advantage of 3 senses. Sight. Sound. And touch (with wind blowing on you during critical gameplay situations).
Whirlwind set the bar.
Quoted from hassanchop:ww has the first wizard mode?
cool, that is news to me, thnks.
I believe the "Mega Door Bonus" is considered the first wizard mode in pinball.
But don't quote me on that 
Quoted from Finrod:I thought Black Knight 2000's The King's Ransom was the first of these.
Could be.
I had read somewhere the Whirlwind was the first game with wizard mode.
Anyone out there know if that's true or not.
Quoted from MikeS:Finrod is correct. Black Knight 2000 came out a year before Whirlwind and was the first to have a wizard mode (King's Ransom).
Sweet.
Thanks for confirming.
Never played BK2000.
Look forward to taking it for a spin someday.
