good theme, fast game and simple rules to understand, very intuitive, the problem with pinball is the poverty of the games in the sense that it only has 2 Martians who move in some multiball, for those who want to spend little and have a fast, simple and fun pinball machine this is the right one, it bored me straight away but I know people who have had it in their collection for at least 10 years, so it's subjective.

This pinball machine is truly unique!
For that reason alone, I think he should have been higher in the ranking. The cabinet is smaller, darker but above all special! I think the theme is very well done and the projections make the cabinet really unique! Even though the cabinet is a bit darker at the back, these projections more than make up for it. Too bad there aren't many of these types of cabinets left.
If the now outdated technology had been further developed in recent years, successors could have done great things with holograms and other 3D effects, for example... but who knows, maybe that will happen :)

This game is very unique and a lot of fun. It has many different voices that say a lot of different funny things. The artwork is well done and really fits the game. I find it to be a challenging and very fun game. It definitely has that just one more game feeling to it.

I actually like this game more than the original, I know that's not a popular take. I think the hologram screen is integrated perfectly and aside from a few display animations that are showing their age, the game still works incredibly well today. The code could be a bit better, a lot of up the middle shots, but the Hologram makes it so it never really feels like you're hitting the same thing. Layout is great, Art is great, Music and Callouts are hilarious. I really wish Pinball 2000 kept going, I think there's a lot of possibilities for what you can do with a game using it.

The theme reminds me of Mars Attacks and I love the campiness of the game. It's a collection of selectable mini games with a ton of irreverent humor. Is it on the same level as Godzilla? No, but I always have fun and get a laugh when playing this game. I love the reflective screen and the way that it interacts with gameplay.

I've owned 24 different games at this point and in my mind, this game is the MOST FUN for the LEAST $$$$. I bought a pristine example for $4,500 at a time when many of the top LE games sell for 3 times that. This game is soooo funny, the call outs are epic...... my favorite was Bill Clinton's voice saying "Hillary, come here, ya gotta see this".
This was my wife's favorite game. She LOVED it and was mad me when I sold it. I regret selling it and have been looking for another in my area. This might be heresy but my family liked this better than the original Attack From Mars which is a perennial top 10 game.
The cons of the game are this: The lighting and unique projection screen makes the upper part of the playfield quite dark. The amount of shots are kind of limited and the game is REALLY REALLY heavy so if you have to move it, eat your Wheaties.
If you have one of these to sell in the Phoenix area, please message me cause I might want to buy it.

After putting the update from applejuice into my revenge from Mars and putting shaker kit / LEDs . This pin is a blast now. I now rate it over Godzilla pin. I thought about selling it from my collection with 1.2 program and now it's staying.

Enjoyed having this game in my collection. As someone who grew up in the 70's and 80's, I enjoyed the fusion of pinball and arcade game elements. Easy to learn rule set. Fun call outs and audio.

Its definitely a different bird in the pinball world, friends who dont play alot of pinball are drawn to this game the most in my collection. Call outs on this game are easily in the top 10 ever. Updated code from mypinball.com is a must, adding drunken flippers which is hilarious.

Updated from 1.5 to 2.24 from myPinballs and what a great upgrade. Super fun to play, has that one more game appeal. You think it's easy, then a missed shot and you are eating humble pie. Love the playfield art, the projected display, the funny sound clips. 100% recommend this game.
Edited scores having owned and sold. Loved it, but loved my other games more.
