    Fun game to play minus bugs and ugly textures. not worth full price. Best wait for a fix or huge discount. Let someone else beta test this game, feels very rushed.

    A demo version that's labelled as a 'free to play' game. Once you hit the high scores you will be barred from playing and forced to buy. Of course I was expecting to have to buy additional tables but this is just false advertisement. It is also a poor excuse to charge people outrageous amounts of money per table instead of selling the entire game for say $30. Don't fall for it, just findA demo version that's labelled as a 'free to play' game. Once you hit the high scores you will be barred from playing and forced to buy.

    Game breaking bugs at many tables, low res textures, pathetic lightning, inconsistent physics. They promised to implement dx11 and fix bugs but only thing they do is kickstartering new tables while preavious are still broken. Stay away. Want great pinball for pc go with Pinball FX2.

    A great service that gives you the opportunity to play with almost perfect reproductions of many classic tables. Any flipper fan should at least try the free part and then decide if he needs to buy more of it.

    Playing The Pinball Arcade is as funny as it was in real life during the last century. With lots of tables really existed, it's definitely a must-have for pinball lovers. But they will need to spend some money to enjoy the game.

    For pinball fanatics or just those curious about gaming’s relatively low-tech past, Pinball Arcade is an excellent starting point for re-experiencing the golden days of quarter-munchers.
