Pinball Arcade

I’ve been looking for a digital version of the classic 70's electro-mechanical pinball machines for online or mobile play, it has been hard, closest is vpforums but very limited versions for mobile apps.

This is definitely great pinball and brings back massive nostalgia. It’s not perfect, but it’s definitely great at scratching the itch. The only issue is that the UI does not properly respect the iPhone’s display “safe area” and the notch on modern phones covers the backboard and some menus. You can still get around for the most part, but it’s annoying.

Ingame it says that the pinball table I purchased is 4.99 rather than the usual 9.99 and I still got charged $11. Not pleased.

I like playing this app. Or did. Now I can’t even play any machine because they all don’t fit on the screen. So sad. Looking at other reviews from 4 months ago saying they would fix the problem but apparently they lying. How long does it take for fixes? Don’t tell people you are going to fix the problem and then don’t.

Great game but i wish the wii u version got all the tables and wasnt left halfway through season 5. I bought almost every table for the wii u version, and i wish it would transfer because there’s no way to buy wms tables now.

First off this used to be my absolute favorite app on my IPad. I have bought roughly 60 tables and was a huge fan. Now (October 2019) the app is basically UNPLAYABLE. All the different pinballs are nearly invisible. This has always been an issue on IPads with a work around of selecting a different ball. The yellow smiley face and black eight ball were the correct opacity. Now EVERY single ball is basically impossible to see on every table. I even purchased additional ball packs to no avail. I’ve written their support department and no one has responded. Please fix this!!!

Would be great to be able to cast these tables to my TV. As it is now, it doesn’t really work. The table kind of goes into slow motion.

In general, I had a lot of fun with this app. The pinball machines featured are good fun to play and 99% of the time my experience has been nothing but positive. However I noticed that the game itself is very buggy - there are a few glitches in particular which are especially noticeable and which I would like to see fixed at some point: 1 - there is a content scaling bug which affects iPads and possibly some other devices: I have noticed where if I change the orientation of my device during a game (not in the menus), the UI will not scale properly. Interface elements go off the screen when this happens. I can fix it by pausing the game and then rotating the screen again, but it will reoccur if I tilt the device once the game is unpaused. 2 - in some games, the arrow menu and select button navigation for entering initials does not work as it should. usually they work OK but on Last Action Hero, Wipe Out and to a lesser extent Harley-Davidson, some button presses do not register. in Ghostbusters, sometimes button presses will register twice (this seemingly extends to selecting skill shots and moving inlane rollovers). The Alvin G games feature a very strange issue when entering initials where at first, the L/R buttons do not register presses, but if I press them repeatedly they will rapidly cycle through the alphabet and they will instead count too many presses. I have been unable to enter my initials like how I want to as a result of this glitch. 3 - on Phantom of the Opera, many of the entered initials which feature characters other than A-Z appear garbled on the “High Scores” screen. 4 - Ghostbusters in general is a very glitchy game in this collection… 4A - The playfield lights occasionally turn off completely mid-game, forcing me to guess what’s going on and what’s lit until the end of the ball. 4B - Mass Hysteria multiball is a mode in which the flipper button controls are reversed (so in-game, touching the left side of the screen activates the right flipper and touching the right side of the screen activates the left flipper). This is not always consistent and sometimes the controls spontaneously become normal in the middle of a Mass Hysteria multiball. They can also seemingly invert and uninvert several times within one Mass Hysteria round. 4C - this is the most serious glitch I have noticed: if I pause and quit while the Slimer target is moving, it will remain stuck in front of the target, making it impossible to hit. I have to return to the tab

Love the Doctor Who table I purchased, but the free tables crash after the Gexa ad.
