Once you know your objectives, it's really fun to shoot for them and not that complicated. The multiballs are great. If you can hit your shots you can play all the balls at once and don't have to cradle because the features slow down the returns. I guess this is the "clunkiness", but it gives you time to check out what's lit and pick your next goal in one ball play. The ring mode animations are fun and rewarding. When Destroy the Ring is lit I get all nervous in a way other games haven't done for me. I'm also into the fact you can see the ball almost all the time.
