Rockin’ game, with the best theme song in pinball! Turn it up and you’ll play better, guaranteed. I always get super amped with this fast player, you gotta be quick. Fun stuff that’s for sure!

Does the great theme/artwork make up lousy shots/playfield? No. Ball drain on the lower half( you can’t see the ball) because the useless upper playfield blocks the view.

This might be a biased rating, but I have a lot of love for this game! I grew up with a black knight 2000 in my house and is the reason why I started loving pinball!

Fast and flowy, I like playing it on location, but it is not a machine I would buy for home use. In the end you are kinda hitting the same things all the time. As soon as the ball is in the lower pf you wann get it up again.
I really dig the the over top playfield art though.

I don't have this machine on the Xbox because it is not featured on the Stern Pinball Arcade collection, but maybe in another collection I might just find it. Anyways, I did play this at the arcade across my mom's against TickleFeather369 during the era of casual pinball matches, and my favorite feature is the lightning wheel. Because I don't have ad much skill on a real machine, I have never gotten to the wizard mode on this machine, but if my research is correct, it is the first machine to have a wizard mode. The lightning wheel and the wizard mode is what defines this machine from the other classics. My only problem is I am not too much of a fan of the old machines, but it plays well for its time. I also enjoyed the magna save. Good way to save yourself from certain death. Overall, decent machine, can't complain.

Theme, music and artwork are all awesome.
Although I love playing this game on location, it turned out to be a real dud in my small collection (2-3 games). Over just a few months it felt repetitive. Left flipper hardly does anything. All there is to do is get the ball to the upper playfield.

I love this game!! I hope I own one someday. Most of my friends disagree with me on this one, they say it's too right flipper heavy or too one dimensional, but I love the looping in the upper playfield, the music, and the artwork. Those 3 things are great enough to make this game a winner for me. The music just oozes 80's and that's part of why I love it, it puts me right back in an 80's arcade.
Either it moves you or it doesn't. If you're reading reviews, you probably already know how you feel about this game. "Aaaaaahhh Ooooohhhh..."

Fast, fun and just one more game. Those who say this is a right flipper game, take a risk, play some shots, chill out.
This is such a fun and addictive game to play, easy to pick up, tricky to master and the light show and artwork bring people in.
The sound is initially annoying as it sticks in your head, but you can't help loving it as it drives you along through the game.
Is this a keeper....it may just be!!

The game that got me into pinball. Heroic score and sounds along with hugely satisfying loops. A classic. Should be ranked much higher. Game rules are easy to understand, so no card is needed. Once you get 20 games in you should be getting used to the upper playfield and how to get back up there. Some game like Flash Gordon is very hard to get back up to the upper playfield. This hurts young players. I love this game. Almost perfect.

I tried BK2000 at FlipOut in London because it had completely captured the attention of my five-year-old son.
Great artwork, great music and sound effects, really interesting layout with the upper playfield. Unfortunately, during my plays, I wasn’t sure of the rules and how to do well - but I am keen to explore the game further. That is usually a sign of a very good pin!
