I didn't care for the extra effects added - the fire ball trail for multiball was stupid. The flying dragon is fine I guess, but not at all necessary.

Good, didn't see that it was optional, I only had limited time to check in on the stream.

Has there been any indication about whether these will be available in VR?

Any news on an Android release? The only time I get much use out of this is on the go.

I played quite a bit of this since their updates. Overall not a huge fan of the model either, but I came to enjoy it in this case quite a bit.

If you go to "free sessions" you'll get some challenges. Think of it like pingolf. They refresh every hour. It's pretty perfect when I'm just hanging out on the couch watching lazy TV with the wife.

You get parts for the tables, and can upgrade with the free time you earn. You can upgrade tables and they become available in the challenges at level 1. There's some strategy to that, because there are some games you're probably going to struggle with over others.

Once you get a game leveled to level 2, it becomes available to you in free play, and offline. I think level 3 allows pro physics (didn't notice a huge difference) and higher difficulty (also didn't notice a huge difference).

It's not so bad, and a pretty fun challenge. The ability to unlock these games for free is pretty neat. I don't think you'd have to pay anything if you're patient enough.

I love the way the game feels on my note8. I've owned all of these games in basically every form factor. I think this one feels great on the phone, and has probably received more play than anything else because of the reward aspect.

In contrast I played stern pinball arcade the other day and it just feels too disconnected. I own almost all of the williams tables on the PBA app, and really don't have much desire to revisit after playing the zen versions.
