This was my second game added to my collection by way of a friend of a friend. It is a fun game to play, all the kids and my friends and neighbors always want to play Shrek first.

Fairly fun pinball with good call outs and plenty of toys. the layout is not the best which limits flow. The right side is a bit cluttered. The mini playfield seems like a good idea but gets old pretty quick. fun in an arcade but due to limited lastability nothing I would want to own. Similar to Family Guy.

The downfall was the miniplayfield for me, it took up a ton of space like GOT but the tiny pinball was so small it created airballs constantly.

the theme is well implemented, multiballs are fun and the mini playfield really deserves the toyish qualification (remember those plastic pinballs with tiny balls...). Plays can be long, but with many goals to achieve. Had fun playing with this pinball on location.

Carbon copy of Family Guy bar the theme, Shrek really doesn't do it for me. Theme is awful, game is not really that much fun and I'm not a fan of Family Guy so having a copy of a game I already didn't like probably doesn't help!

Love the mini play field for Donkey Pinball. The initial ball launch is kind of awkward. There's a little too much Smash Mouth music and they could have done more with the Shrek theme and references.

trlentz has this game on the wishlist.

A fun game with good artwork, a good ruleset, and the ever-popular donkey pinball mode.

A low production game made even rarer by the fact that chuck-e-cheese bought a lot of these then destroyed them when they were finished with them.

Layout and gameplay are exactly the same as Family Guy. It's a fun game, but hearing that smash mouth song is enough to make me not want to play it.

Played this at a Chuck E Cheese. I was delighted to find it as a bright spot in a party full of screaming brats. The problems was I had to play it in the middle of a loud party of screaming brats.
It was Ok at best. I felt that the mini pinball up in the corner was a complete waste of space. I actually cringed when it sent me to "donkey pinball" mode.

I'm surprised this isn't higher up the list. I think this was a fun game with some nice flow. Some fast shots too. I especially love the mini PF. That was a great add. Love it in Family Guy as well.

Overall, I think this is a fun family game worthy of a medium sized collection.

I personally found the callouts annoying. This certainly is a game I would never own.

Ok, I am not sure how this game lands at 93 on the Pinside 100. It is a far better game than that. I understand the loyalty to Family Guy which is also an awesome game, but I actually think this game is better. The art is appropriate and the music is fun. I love the theme song and the "Three Stooges Theme" always brings a smile to my face. The callouts are awesome and the Eddy Murphy impersonator is spot on. The rules are fairly deep and the shots are very satisfying. The lighting is excellent. Really is a top-10 Stern. Way ahead of X-Men, Avengers and other recent titles.

I like Shrek more than Family Guy as the voice work is better / funnier to me. The game is obviously identical.
The mini playfield is a winner and i love the cabinet and powder coat on the metal.
Very pretty and lots of fun.

Like "Family Guy" before it. Shrek is a lot of fun. However, it just feels thrown together for me. Hearing Smash Mouth in the background just sounds lazy to me. Otherwise, the game is just like Family Guy but with a "Shrek" twist to it. It's worth playing, and I know I'll be playing it again, but I wouldn't really want to own one, and if I had it, I probably wouldn't keep it.

I love shrek...the theme and the pin. I was fortunate to have that pin in my home for a few days so I could play it a lot ! Great quote, great layout. The mini PF is really fun and frustrating at the same time. Rules are probably unbalanced (there are so many things to do there... but only a few shots seem to pay). No problem with the callouts: I don't find them repetitive, but I wish I understood all of them.

Played this at a local arcade and had a lot of fun with it. The game is very child friendly so it is one I would consider owning. I really like the mini play field and I think Shrek is a pretty good movie so the theme is good for a pinball.
