Community Insight:
Our only complaint is that it takes forever to unlock different machines for arcade playbut, we guess thats where they make their money.
Great game to get that pinball fix on the go.
Great fun and way to learn machines.
We like this app because you can unlock tables just by playing daily challenges, so anybody that loves pinball you have to download this app and any other by this company. But after the November 3 / 2025 update, its been crashing a lot. Our device is an iPhone SE third generation iOS 17. We noticed the sound drops when an ad is played but when the sound is out, it wont crash so it has something to do with the sound as thats why its crashing. Hope this helps. Update, just updated it on November 12, seems to work perfectly again, thanks.
Thanks for the update, game is running smoothly now. Wish earning tables was a bit faster, but when the game itself is free theyve gotta earn money somehow.
For a few days, the pins in this game had full sound/music Please bring them back Also, please make Taxi and Whirlwind available.
Paying for more stuff is kinda annoying.
We downloaded this because we played Williams pinballs in the 1980s and 90s. The machines look amazing. However, we are so distracted and bogged down trying to figure out all the Challenges, what they are, what they mean, and how they make the game play betterfrustrating! We just want to play pinball. Allow a feature where there are no distraction Challenges constantly.
Crashes everyday game. Unplayable in current state.
The latest November update broke something, because the flipper and plunger audio from each table drops out right after starting. Switching tables makes the audio go away completely. Ive tried this on multiple devices and its the same across the board. A terrible change to an otherwise great game.
The only pinball game we have available.
1.6.2 ran great on our iPad for 3 years without receiving any updates, then two days ago it updated to 1.6.3 (General bug fixes and improvements! Yay!) which completely broke it. Sound cuts out, followed by an electronic buzz and the app crashing. Sometimes Ill get to play for a bit with just the table sounds but no sound effects (flippers, solenoids, etc.) but never for more than two minutes. Restarting app/rebooting/re-downloading had no effect. Guessing that they want to push people to the zen pinball world app, which we tried and is awful in performance while bombarding you with ads, so we guess Im done playing pinball unless this gets worked out, but we cant imagine they care about this app that much. RIP all our upgraded tables. Still rated it five stars because it was good for years, and for that matter is still way better than their current app. Thanks for the memories.
Its been awesome learning some of the most classic games without spending hundreds of dollars, but the crashes and completely borked audio is embarrassing. Not only does the audio maybe last one round max, it also ignores the settings completely. We like(d) listening to our own playlists with the game music off, and we guess we should be thankful the audio cuts out right away so we dont have competing soundtracks.
Ive been playing this game for years. Love it. That is, we did until the latest update. Many of the sound effects were updated, which is nice, but the sound drops out entirely after a game or two. Have to quit the app and restart to get the sound back again. This was an issue early in the games development, but was fixed a few years ago. Now its been reintroduced with the last update.
Its fun but there is a problem with the sound. It always needs to be rest.
We love playing this, and would give it five stars if only we didnt have so much trouble with the sound. Sometimes sound effects stop working, sometimes the music too. Sometimes sound overlaps. It is a very frequent problem that we run into daily. Im playing on an iPhone 16e.
After this most recent update the sounds of the flippers and balls moving around drop out within maybe 10 seconds of the start of a game. Sounds between the daily challenges are completely gone, ball and flipper sounds are still absent when starting the next game or challenge. Please fix this.
Lots of things got messed up the game crashes in the middle of play and the sound is totally blown up. It was great before.
We love the app but What happened to the Skillz pinball part of this app. We opened it today and multiplayer part of it is gone.
Needs better bug fixes please! App closes midstream while in play. Ive been playing this app for years. Looks like we need a new app for pinball. Very disappointing.
The super realistic audio of the Mars attack pinball got a wired electronic remix and also destroyed the mechanical noises from the flippers! No fun anymore also: App crashes mid game on our iPad. That has never been an issue before.
We use to love playing this game until the update. Before we would give this game 5 stars easily. Now the game crashes during play. The sound cuts out then complete crash. Please fix it.
After some update game became unresponsive and lags in sound.
Used to be great! However it was recently updated and now the sound is off and it crashes all the time.
The potential and fun is there but ruined by the ever present money aspect to make progress and it being one of the most glitchy games Ive ever played. You know its bad when the game starts with a pop up about how broken it is.
Its so awesome!!! We wish it had more tables thought, like Taxi, Cyclone, Diner, Earthshaker, Addams family, Comet, Gorgar, Space Shuttle, Pinbot, World Cup Soccor, or Bride of Pinbot, Jackbot or others.
Everything about this multiple game so far is stellar. Each game plays different like at a real arcade, we definitely have our favorites. Very fun to play.
It does take a lot of playing to unlock games but its solid.
Physics seem very accurate to us. Great practice for real pinball. Mentally helps for drop flips, post passes, and other.
It looks fun but we cant figure out how to actually play it without spending money. *Edit Ive figured out how. Our game was being kinda weird when we first installed it but after we stayed off for a bit we got things working. Like we said it is a fun game and we would recommend it if you like pinball.
This app is the bomb!! We can win tables on our zen pinball world if we get tables in the game (sorry if we stole a advertisement)we also like that the ads arent forced.
We know you have haptic feedback in Zen Pinball World, but we still like this app better. Can you please add haptic feedback? We just purchased more zen coins hoping there would be haptic feedback with pro physics and there wasnt.
Love the game, have loved the game for many many years. Pretty colors and certainly enough challenging content to amuse us throughout the years.
Great app, several ways to play, compete, & win with money or without.
How about bringing back the Black Knight? Our mother used to work at a game room /newsstand when we were a kid and the Black Knight was the most played pinball game in the game room and was always one of our favorites. Would love to see it on the game boards here.
Another great pinball game. But we wish zen pinball would consolidate to one app. We currently have 3. One is a legacy app, this one and; zen pinball world. Pinball world really only has our attention for the twilight zone cab. Id love to see our other cabs played in zens pinball world just for the high resolution and ball outline, add the customization aspect of this app to pinball world to us its a license to print money.
We loved pinball machines in our childhood and still do. This app has been awesome so far. We normally silence all the game noises via other apps, but not this one. Multiple tables available with options for customizing features by earning points, rewards or package purchases. The in app purchases havent been needed thus far, making it a reasonable and fun experience without throwing your $$$ into yet another app. A major plus having no glitches thus far. Easily play on iPhone, Android (our phone has a larger screen). However we think this app would be an even better on an iPad or PC related tablet. Definitely recommend getting for those who love pinball and/or share with their kids (so many quarters down the drain in our youngest years-lol), friends, etc., not familiar with pinball or truly love the game. Very realistic game (including nudging the table, tilt, lights, numbers, multi-ball, sound effect. Easily one of our newest favorite games. A pleasant flashback of days gone by at bowling alleys, arcades, off post (military) bars and a few friends homes. Flashbacks of bowling balls hitting pins, a cornucopia of arcade games sounds, the smell of popcorn, indistinct chatter of many people and a line of quarters on machines glass top for those waiting for next up playing through our head.
The physics are great, the presentation is exceptional. The flippers feel right for the first time ever playing virtual pinball. This also contains some of our favorite machines and we love the challenges. Our ONLY nitpick we have is that the auto plunge is always at the same level and always seems to be fairly low. We wish it would randomly vary instead because Im used to auto plunges basically doing a full plunge. Otherwise, we cant stop playing it.
Very cool tables that we have ever played on. Thanks so very much for sharing your experiences with the game community in the gaming space.
Only one table -Circus Voltaire Cant have more options.
Wish there were more free tables but understand why.
Great graphics good game overall.
If you love pinball this game is the real deal and super fun.
Great app for pinball. Probably one of the best Ive ever played.
We love playing the Williams pinball we love playing pinball we really do love playing pinball Im a huge gamer and fan and its really awesome to play pinball and we have been having problems lately the flippers are having problems where the flippers just randomly go up and for no reason we dont understand why that is happening if there is a way to fix the problem please Let us know.
We love this game but its been years since theres been any new tables. Will any tables be coming out in the future.
By far the best pinball ap available. Best graphics smooth play real pinball table replicas free play modes are great.
This game is so much fun 10 out of 10 stars.
Fun so far. Looking forward to unlocking more tables.
Takes a while to unlock the tables, but theyre all unlockable without paying. The games are 100% smooth and crisp compared to the new Zen games. We hope this is the standard going forward.
