Looks very addictive.

Needs a great art package and someone cool doing the call outs.

Would be tempted if final version was as good as it potentially could be.

Really hope this game gets made. Destroying 9 reactors for total annihilation sounds epic!

Anyone know the rules on this game?

I know you have to destroy 9 reactors but is it the same every time? Seems quite a linear ruleset?

Another game that everybody loves on playing it, it would seem. Hopefully will get to play one soon.

Quoted from FalconPunch:

Whats the difference? There is still warranty on parts and spooky make more money then having to give ~30% to a distributor.
You pay them directly.
Unless Spooky start moving some serious product no one is going get 1/3 of a container into the country at a time. And even then why would spooky want to give up their margins when the situation is working out fine?

If these are going to be distributed internationally Spooky will have to think about CE for Europe. Not sure if Australia needs CE or not?

Quoted from rai:

Me too. I have all Stern typically ramps and whatnot. I like them and how same/similar layouts can feel different by rules and art and music etc.
But at the end of the day SM or IM or ST are still the same thing.
TA is something else, I'd love to add this, like a whole new class of pinball than anything I own.

Add Rob Zombie to the list of something completely different! And it has a real backglass

As nothing is final throwing out my opinion on the art.

The girl just looks a little out of place. She looks like a teenager. Like a BEN 10 character.

If I bought this, my teen boys would give me a hard time.

Don't get me wrong, I love women and backglasses but she just looks too young....

#941 6 years ago

I was kind of expecting an updated version of this. Obviously this is unique but this kind of edgy style.

Wow, this looks so cool.

And knowing that people love playing it, it's clear Spooky have a huge winner on their hands.

Stern need to pay attention!

#1524 6 years ago
Quoted from flynnsbit:

If I were to critique one thing, I would use brush metal legs and chrome t-molding, but that is just nit picking.

I prefer black as it matches the retro feel.

Damn it, I really want one

#1555 6 years ago

And guessing the code is pretty far advanced?

#1565 6 years ago

Explanation of the rules, starting at 8 minutes in.....

Quoted from pbu:

I think one thing that most people aren't picking up on with TNA is how fun this game is to multi-player. Watch Dead Flip's stream or Pinball Undesirables's and notice that you don't see many single player games. At SFGE this was the only game on the floor that seemed to have that effect. Maybe it's the music, maybe it's the fast ball times, maybe it's the lock stealing, maybe it's all these things added together, but TNA by far and away had the most fun atmosphere around it. People would group around the game and interact rather than form a neat line. TNA has a fun factor that's hard to understand or describe.

As others have said, who wants to play a 4 ball multiplayer on JJP or Sterns as you can end up hanging round for ages waiting a turn. 4 player Hobbit?

Ok, I'll be player one and then go get pizza while I wait for my turn again

TNA. Barely time to sip a drink

Spooky now seem to have the best playfields of any manufacturer.

Who makes them? Guessing that is a trade secret....

#3718 6 years ago

What is the width of the backbox? That is the figure that matters when trying to squeeze into a line up!

Is the 2x, 3x, 4x a bonus multiplier or playfield multiplier?

Hoping it's a p/f multiplier

#4770 6 years ago
Quoted from Troutfarm:

I have some constructive criticism. Same crits as I had with RZ. These games are louder than any other games I have owned.
1: The power supply fan is loud. I can see how this is not a big deal in an arcade/bar, but in a home environment it is really annoying here that sound when every other machine is silent. This is not a huge deal.. it is just a detail that would be greatly appreciated being addressed moving forward if possible.
2: Flipper coils sound like they are outside the cabinet. Not sure if every other pinball machines just have a tighter seal on the cabinet keeping most of that sound in. Again, these are not deal breakers at all on buying Spooky games, but things that stand out in a home environment. I am going to experiment with some sound deadening foam to lessing the flippers and the fan noise. I will post my results.
Love this brutal game!

I was able to change my fan in KISS Spike 1 game - huge difference. Not sure if you can with this game though.

Only improvement I can think of for players like Bowen is a 'fastest time to destroy the 9 reactors' award.

Over time, someone would become legendary for the fastest time in the world
