If you grew up with pinball machines, this will no doubt recapture a love long lost with the collapse of arcades.

Marvel Pinball is a great add-on to an already excellent experience. Now they're giving me a table where experience points and loot carry over from game to game? Obviously Zen Studios is trying to kill me. I can't load up Pinball FX2 on Xbox Live Arcade without spending at least a couple of hours playing through every table once or twice as it is. Zen Pinball sets a new standard for realistic ball physics and graphical detail in pinball video games employing cutting-edge visuals, challenging tables, true-to-life ball and table physics and combines them with innovative features not found in any other pinball game. As always, the sound design follows suit with an appropriate blend of techno/electronica and subtle mystery.Zen Pinball features hit tables based on some of the biggest brands in entertainment, including Marvel Comics, Star Wars, ALIEN, The Walking Dead and more, Zen Pinball is your go-to place for all of your pinball cravings.įrom Zen Studios, the pioneers of the digital pinball space, Zen Pinball is your destination for exciting digital pinball action! Featuring both original tables and exclusive ones based on some of the hottest brands in entertainment, detailed 3D models, the most advanced ball physics available, rich social features, and hot seat multiplayer, Zen Pinball for Android devices continues the rich pinball tradition established by Zen Studios, the definitive leader in pinball videogames. Again, the attention to detail is everything when you lose your ball, the Space Spider facepalms. For example, satellites "orbit" the field of play, and the Space Spider acts as a rather fickle ball-saver. Playing correctly will reward you with one of several crazy events. The ball out zone reads "Are We Alone?" Of course, it wouldn't be Zen Pinball if crazy things didn't happen during play. The contrast is stark and easy to appreciate a giant face appears to be rising out of the dust, and bright, runic symbols practically beg to be lit up. This contrasts with the bottom of the playing field, which is the surface of Mars. Just about everything apart from the bottom of the playing field is made up of future tech ramps have a sterile, utilitarian look to them.

And Zen Pinball: Mars is nothing if not creative. Since there is so much mystery shrouding the Red Planet, there's plenty of room for Zen Studios to get creative. Here's what we've got: the fourth planet from the sun. A table based on Ratchet & Clank or Uncharted would be awesome!) But enough about what I want. I've decided to stop predicting the future of Zen Pinball's downloadable tables, though the Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 table has left me wanting another game-themed table.
