Quoted from joelbob:

I actually solid my Hobbit because I could have games well over 45mins. With that said I do miss it.

You must be a hella lot better than me or you didn't set it steep enough.

Quoted from Kyleman:

I owned one and played both for sometime.With wonka it’s ying and yang but very flow once you get your pattern down it becomes easier but it’s a loaded pinball with tons to do.Hobbit is fun but more clunky than wonka.Honestly wonka is the best game I’ve played if your talking about whole package ie.flow toys rule set.The only thing I hate on wonka is the artwork play field.Hobbit is even more visually loaded but doesn’t have the gameplay in magnets and such as wonka.Wonka is a masterpiece Lawlor should have won some awards for this gem.

Hobbit is not clunky if you set it up right. Pitch at 7.1 and adjust flipper power. This game is incredible! Theme integration and depth are the greatest ever in a pin. The early code and shallow pitch are what gave the early impressions of floaty, clunky play. The code is now perhaps the most polished code in pinball history! Also, Hobbit can be found at bargain prices, but that's starting to change. Mine is bolted to the floor!
