Own(ed): No

Times Played: at least 100

Positives:
Of course, the castle is a cool toy. Deep rules. Lots of humor.

Negatives:
Not a whole lot of satisying shots. Many are pretty easy. Having to bash the castle upteen times to advance gets old.

Recomendation:
I just can't get past the prices these command. Just not a worth it. There are better games out there, but, If you have the $ and love the theme,it is a great game.

It's alright, really repetitive. Definitely not worth the premium people are charging for it. I like the theme, but feel it really carries this a long way.

Of course I knew of the hype of this machine before I purchased it. And it has lived up to it. What is interesting is that many novices who play my pins frequently gravitate to MM and declare it as their favorite, unknowing of the well deserved reputation.

Thought I'd like it more than I did. Just couldn't get in to it. Thought most of the shots were easy and repetitive.

This machine may be over priced but it is not over rated. What a culmination of ingenuity and creativity. This game is rocking fun from the moment you hit the start button, playable and enjoyable by all skill levels of players, what a overall fantastic game!

When you sit down to rate this title using Pinside's system, it makes you really realize just how great this pin is! There were only two aspects of the game that I didn't give an "excellent" rating to.

The call outs and humor are excellent. Superb implementation of the theme. Lots to do. People who say that all you do is hit the castle repeatedly don't know what they are doing.

This is number 1 at Pinside for a reason. It deserves the top spot!

Played it for the first time yesterday and I am very disappointed. Not very good ball-flow, too much stuff on the playfield, trolls are annoying, etc. Seriously, this game is OVERRATED and not worthy in your collection.

Best game I have ever played. A great theme with a fantastic toy novelty, the castle. Add in a catapult and a workable castle gate with moat and you have the perfect toy. Throw in a destroy castle animation and it doesn't get much better. With popable trolls that just add to the fun blocking the castle gate, it just overall adds to the theme. Add a damsel that needs to be rescued and it just all adds up to a fantastic game. Has several different multiballs and modes that will keep you deeply engaged in the gameplay. Has funny quotes that will keep you humored while playing. Has good flow and easy shots and alot of objectives to make to get to wizard mode. Completing wizard mode gives a sense of accomplishment not being easy to obtain. Overall this makes it a top game that is well worth it's sometimes inflated price on the pinball market. As close as you can get to a perfect 10!!

Worthy of the number one spot...but plenty of others that are right up there with it. My grail game, which I now own. I never get tired of playing it.

I really like playing this pin! The speech is hilarious (second only to Scared Stiff IMO). It plays a lot like Attack From Mars, so the rules are easy to follow, but I think it's a bit too similar to AFM. Even so, it's totally fun and if I see it out, I would stop to play it.

This is a good, solid game. And that's it. Why it has risen to the level of collectability that it has is completely beyond me. I counted 5 examples of this at the recent pinball show in denver. FIVE! Doesn't seem particularly rare. I passed on two availablel for sale in one shipment by a local reseller too. I just don't get it.

It is fun, But so are lots of others.
