"Going Tilt: Wild West Pinball offers a pretty faithful recreation of the pinball machine experience on your iPhone."
— Jeff Phillips, Macworld.com
"The game is earning high praise from pinball fans who have been looking for a more authentic experience. Several users have commented on the accurate physics model and "real feel" of Wild West Pinball."
— Arnold Kim, TouchArcade.com
"The physics and sounds of the game are specifically designed to make the game "feel right" and give pinball fans the closest feel to actually being on a machine."
— Erik Fikkert, AppVee.com
"…it's a very good game indeed and probably the best digital pin table I've seen in a long time."
— Sir Digby, AllAboutTheGames.co.uk
"Fantastic 3D pinball table and animations. Very crisp visuals, and a buttery smooth frame rate. It doesn’t get any more realistic than this."
— Matt Dunn, iPhoneGamesNetwork.com
"…there's no title screen, no front end interface or needless menu navigation. You tap, and you're instantly in. It's really clean, and as long as you aren't expecting some sort of epic experience in your pinball, it's perfect given the nature of mobile gaming."
— Mark Bozon, IGN

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
This is easily the best pinball game on App Store.. So addictive.
In old school & want more like this.
Ive been playing this game for over 10 years and it still holds up as a good time spender.
We do not always play games but love playing this pinball. Reminds us when we were a kid playing pinball.
Super retro classic fun . Great detail and a true pinball game feel . We love this game, totally addicted.
Fun car ride game. Must hop on. Bouta be the next block blast.
Cant replay, has to delete and load each time.
Just downloaded it for our iPad. Ive played on our phone and its OK. Overall, we like it better on the iPad, the weight takes a little getting used to versus the phone. Love it.
Pinballers. Cool game lots of fun.
You should play this game and that one guy talkin all about zen pinball is a pinhead lol lol lol lol one more time say lol pinhead.
Its fast & nice , enjoying falls.
We played this game for quite awhile and its very addicting. Its almost like a real pinball game.
One of the better too best pinball games one will ever play and we like hit very much , just has a few quirks in it that needs to be ironed out , but no problem.
Wonderful old time arcade pinball. Love it and play most every day. Reminds us of the wonderful times – Id miss original pinball.
Ive been playing this for a decade. Never gets old.
This is a totally fun game. We play it all the time having a beverage. This game will prove if you have quick reactions or not.
If we could give this game a ten star rating then we would.
Got this on the original iPod touch almost 15 years ago and it is still the best iOS game there is. Perfect physics. Realistic graphics. Flawless really. The best there is, everyone knows it.
As soon as we finish a game we get the option to try again or go to main menu. No matter what we select it locks up and we have to force close. Other then that the game is wonderful.
We have been playing this game since we were like 3 years old and we have loved it ever since.
We have had this game for 14 years and play it every now and again, fun game.
Love this game it has a lot of action.
The game is awesome they just need to fix the graphics. We wonder if the developer is still around. Love this game.
Sneaking off to the bowling alley to play the pinball machines . Those were great memories.
Waiting for better resolution and full support for screens of iPhone 15 Pro Max and 14 Pro Max.
Fun game with a few glitches just like the real pinball machines.
Have played this for years. Never disappoints.
Hi quality graphics for how old of a game? Fun and consistent gameplay, never fails to keep us entertained! Would recommend.
Amazing game for its age. Can play for hours<3.
You can forget your other concerns by immersing yourself into this Arcade game.
We like it but it needs more action or maybe we just need play it more to learn more.
This is the best traditional game thats out there, truly resembling the feel of the Wild West with amazing graphics and good game ethics to play with.
The game is great and very entertaining rather intense, keeps one on their feet. A great game.
This is a fun pinball game. We like robbing the bank.
A very nice game table with plenty of action. A real challenge to play and it doesn't become old too fast.
Probably one of the best pinball games for a small screen platform very fun on the go.
Use to play this game years ago and gave it up as it got a little boring. Just downloaded it again from the cloud and couldnt believe how much it has improved. Back on our favorite list again. Great fun.
We played this game since we were a kid and it still ropes us in.
As in OK corral ! Im transported back to the Old West and Im one of the Earp brothers slinging lead.
Played for years, just a fun game.
Great pinball game! Highly recommend.
You cant pay to remove the ads and they interrupt your game. However, if youre phone is in airplane mode, no ads! We like the follow cam on the ball.
Two thumbs up. Very entertaining to play. Only downfall is the pop up ads while you are playing. Very engaging and multiple ways to save your ball during play. Highly recommend.
Ive downloaded and bought many pinball games. We still love this one, and we keep coming back to it. Game play is top notch.
Ive had this wonderful 3D pinball game installed on our devices since 2012. Very few of those other games, (Doom & Wolfenstein RPG, to name just two) are still downloadable & playable. Wild West Pinball still remains available and playable on modern devices (albeit, it needs an update for fullscreen support and maybe even higher resolution textures). Thank you for continuing to keep this app on the store, developers. We salute you.
Our mom had this on her phone since 2010 or 2011. We downloaded it on our phone now and its just as fun.
Played this game for months, always competing against our older brother for hours. He was much better than we were, but day after day we still took turns playing on our moms IPad and then eventually our own IPods . Now its been close to a decade since we have both seen this game or played it. We downloaded it the other day and our brother saw us playing and said Havent seen that game in a while. Im still better than you though. This game brings back so many memories and it is definitely the best game we have ever played.
Had this since 2009 and have played it quite a bit ever since. Its one of the rare few original games thats been kept up to date. Classic.
This was one of the first apps we bought on our iPad many years ago, and its still a favorite! Its very responsive, sound effects are perfect. Its a perfect way to spend a little time while on a plane, or just hanging out.
We just redownloaded this game, which we had played on an earlier iPhone. We were pleasantly surprised to see it plays perfectly with no issues. And it uses almost no storage or battery. We were also impressed that the app honored our old IAP of removing ads. Very honest developer, and we really appreciate that. We highly recommend this pinball game. Everything works smoothly and there are no greedy gimmicks. Thank you developer.
