That layout is looking sparse. Can't fully judge until I see some gameplay of course, but it's really wide open.

No. No way. Would have sold my soul for Godzilla, but I'm not even interested in playing this, and the big multiball is one of the most annoying things I've ever heard? NEEEEEEWP. Epically disappointed, was really hoping for MST3k or Godzilla. Oh well.

The artwork is nice. Unsure about that layout...looks like a whole lot of standup targets?

I don't really care about playfield toys. My favorite games didn't have them (Taxi and all the classics). Injection molded plastic stuff really adds zero to gameplay. This has a newton ball, spinners, a ramp, jets... the only thing missing is I wish the three bank up top was a set of drop targets

NOTE:

This game isn't for pinside. This is for a market The Pinball Company feels they have a need for. Family friendly simple games for rec-room buyers with kids. This is NOT meant to be an "A" title.

ALSO NOTE:

Also this is not Spooky #3 -- this is a contract game for The Pinball Company.

Thanks for clearing that up. Given how simple it appears, wonder what the pricing is going to be like..

Initial development had the hot wheels capsule car behind the captive ball sort of like bumblebee in transformers. The car just didn't hold up well with bashing. Then it was considered to be like bart simpson and sit above the plastic and move when the captive ball was hit but this got cut for whatever reason, too.

FYI This is not Spooky #3, there's still more coming from the fine folks in Benton, WI ! This is a 'contract' game similar to Dominos... Congrats to Pinball Company and Spooky for bringing a desired theme to fruition. Looking forward to playing it !

You sir... are 100% correct.

You will be able to purchase the game via The Pinball Company, OR Spooky Pinball... it's a simpler game designed to be easy to understand, and as mentioned... it's a product of The Pinball Company, mfg. by Spooky.

We're thrilled to be working with Nic and his family. Life is pretty great! We'll talk about this more on the Feb. 1st podcast.

With the market The Pinball Company is aiming at, I'm sure keeping costs down was a high priority.

The ramp return needs a bumper or metal piece so the ball doesn't destroy the ramp plastic

Any idea on cost for this one ?

Cabinet artwork is great. The playfield artwork is good but kinda bland right by the flippers. Usually that area gets the most attention both by the artist and the player.

Put me in the interested to see gameplay and price category.

Simple and fun.

This should do well for the home market of non hardcore pinball people. I.e.:the casual player.

Nothing wrong with simple; as someone mentioned earlier the games I love the most are the early 80's pins, and they didn't have massive code and gadgets that to me only serve to block visual play. Just my opinion nothing more except, congrads to Spooky for getting another out on the market.

Quoted from mrgone:

And that's exactly what it was developed for. Nic came to me [and ngoett] to develop this game because at the time all he had to sell was Walking dead, Metallica, ACDC, etc. Believe it or not, people with small children don't want those themes in their house. He wanted something easy to repair IE reliable, fairly easy to start multiball, but hard enough to keep interest.

at the same time, I wanted to make the rules interesting enough to not be a vacation America or "the pin" [not counting the new spidey - I think it's on par with what we have here playwise] and be interesting for real pinball players. That wasn't an easy thing to balance.

The alternative was to say nothing and let it potentially go through to production as per Stern quality control.

No need to make me out to be the "villian" as I am really looking forward to seeing more great things from this manufacturer with what looks to be a solid groundwork and track record in quality end product.
