Really cool machine, although I wish companies wouldn't keep releasing different versions of the same machine. I get that its a money maker for them but I miss the days when all machines were released with the same toys and features. But great play regardless!

The first few times I played WOZ was on location. Every time, the games were not functioning properly. I was finally able to play in a few home environments. I fell in love soon after! I love Keith Johnson's deep rules, always keeps you coming back for more. I find great value in a deep game that always has something to strive for! WOZ is also a game my wife enjoys playing. Which makes me happy when I can find games that allow us to share the hobby!

I initially drug my feet buying a WOZ but my girlfriend and kids convinced me to get one and I’m so happy they did. While the theme is not for me the game itself is amazing and deep, shoots smooth and the light show is second to none. This is one that I could see lasting a long time in anyone’s lineup regardless of what other games you have.

This game is immediately appealing due to the beautiful screen and great art package. While the theme would never be my first choice for a pin, it's a refreshing change of pace from the comic book and action movie themes that seem to dominate this hobby. The game play is very stop and go, which is by design. I actually find it to be a nice change of pace from other pins. The software is extremely deep and very polished. I honestly don't think I'll ever see everything this game has to offer and I'm nowhere close to getting to the final wizard mode after months of ownership and hundreds of games. The LCD screen and animations are still stunning and definitely raised the bar for the rest of the industry.
On the negative side, the lighting is a bit dark on parts of the playfield. I also found the learning curve on the rules to be almost too steep. Scoring big requires a decent amount of planning, game knowledge and mode stacking. While somebody brand new to this game can step up and have a good time just banging the ball around, getting a good score and progressing thru the game takes a lot of strategy. This certainly seems like the type of game that would excel more in an home environment.
Overall, I find this to be a stunning game with lots of challenge to offer. It may never rise to the position of being my favorite game, but it's a pin I always have fun with enjoy coming back to.

This is one of my favorite games to play. I was surprised at how much I enjoy this game DESPITE the theme. I went to an arcade recently and found myself playing WOZ for several hours and not touching any of the other 15 or so top 20 rated titles they had available to play. JJP definitely has a winner with this one! In my opinion it should be much higher rated. I'd place it in the top 10 of all games that have come out so far.

Interesting playfield, more light than a thousand suns, but the layout is so overly complicated that it hurts the game.

I had the opportunity to borrow this game from a friend and have in my collection for a few months. I think the game is way overrated and in my opinion very lame shots, too repetitive and they could of done more in a wide body game. I don't like JJP games, but this is actually the best one they made so far (IMO). The electronics in the machine is the worse design and couldn't keep in running for over a week before another light board needed to be replaced ... it was very frustrating. The good news is that their support is very good, but the bad news is you will need to pay for any board replacements now. So if you buy one of the early production ones, make sure to check with JJP - provide s/n and get some details on how many boards have been replaced on the game.

A work of art. In fact, probably the most beautiful playfield and toys I have ever seen. That does not mean it is a perfect pinball machine. I would have preferred a standard size cabinet, even if that means losing some toys, as it seems a little floaty and lacking direction at times. Also, rule set is standard modern day war & peace type stuff. I think this is the reason that TNA is such a fresh breath of air, it is the EXACT opposite if this game, for better or worse, depending on your perspective and what it is you are looking for.
