RAWR! 1st Thoughts review of Walking Dead
I spent at-least 30 minutes with a Walking Dead today.
It was about a dozen games in total,
some very short, some moderate length and a few longer.
The left ramp is fun and doable (harder to repeat but can get down with flow).
The left loop is a blast (fast).
The right loop is good.
Drop targets are good to have around (adds some dynamics).
The well dweller is cool, not hard to hit and not in the way of other shots,
(at points of play I didn't even really notice him)
The right ramp is purely difficult, it has to be done just off the left flipper tip.
(I did though actually some freaking how back hand the right ramp once).
The shot under the right ramp back to the plunger is difficult as well.
The house shot is fun and challenging to keep hitting consistently.
Drain-factor: I had a decent time keeping the ball alive,
when it drains it isn't mean or vicious about it.
It basically left me wanting to keep shooting after draining instead of frustration.
The dots are Awesome!!!
The audio effects are good and the music is rock'n.
The house that opens is rad (lights up very well) and the zombie head that moves is a great mech!
The magnet in the middle has a new metal ring around it which is awesome.
The modes look like they'll be neat, can't review at this point, just speaking about the layout here.
