It's pinball though, you like it or you don't. Coming into the game you've got to think to yourself, do I like pinball.

One of the best things I found with this game was the ranking system where you had to complete a certain number of challenges to advance up in rank. By advancing you unlock new challenges that will carry more points. Obviously the aim is to get the highest score you can. To get these challenges you need to hit one of the yellow dots on the left of the table and then send the ball up the ramp near the bottom on the left hand side of the table. You'll then have flashing arrows pointing at where you need to send the ball to complete the mission. Once you've done that some blue lights will light up in a circle in the centre of the table. Once you light them all then you wil be promoted a rank. For me, trying to get through the ranks is what kept me playing this game time and again. But trying to get through the ranks is a big pain as the ball all too often goes everywhere but where you want it to go. Actually having the desire to get to the highest rank in the game is another thing entirely. At the end of the day this is just basically a pinball game with some extra flashing lights and sequences of events to raise your points. Overall it's a pretty good game by pinball standards, but at the end of the day it's just that, a pinball game. That said I still think it's a pretty good game and I find myself playing it over and over trying to get further into the ranks. If you want to advance in rank then this game is for you, if you couldn't care less then this will only entertain you for a few minutes.
