Game review

Pinball Fantasies from 21st Century Entertainment definitely belongs to the list of the best games of its genre.

After turning on the game, you will be taken to a selection screen where you can choose from four completely thematically different tables. But the principle remains the same for everyone. At the beginning of the game, when you choose a table, a typical pinball slot machine will appear in front of you where you have two or three punches and one ball that you bounce and try to hit various bonuses and thus achieve the highest possible score.
It can be said that at each table you collect the same bonuses similar to wheels and the like. However, there are big differences, especially in the special bonus disciplines of which table. For each, these main bonus disciplines differ mainly in the number of points that are earned. It can be said that these special bonus disciplines are the spice of the game because they achieve a much higher score than with regular bonuses.

In terms of graphics and overall gameplay. In terms of graphics, the game can be said nice, but the disadvantage is that, unlike many other pinballs, it is not possible to see the whole table at once, which means that you actually have to learn to somehow estimate the flight of the shot, although I do not feel that this game would be very demanding. . The overall gameplay seems very good to me and in terms of pinball so one of the best, there is a lot of bonuses on each table, but compared to other pinballs that are newer and more graphically beautiful, I don't feel like the table is confusing, but clear and in various bonuses are easy to recognize and available.

In my opinion, the music for the game is good, it fits into individual tables and completes the atmosphere of the game.

So overall, I would rate the game as one of the great pinballs that has nice graphics, clear tables, nice music and super gameplay that forces you to repeatedly achieve and improve your best score.

If you like pinball as a game for relaxation, I highly recommend that you download and play it, it's definitely worth it.
