The music is so solemn, I really don't get the mood of this one.

It'd have been a much better game if you weren't able to indiscriminately shoot the Titan Tunnel for multiball. The layout is great; I love the third flipper in the middle of the playfield and can't think of any other game like it.
I know other Sys11 games like Radical and Mousin' Around have gotten some home roms, but I don't think any of them have been as drastic as what Swords of Fury would probably need to have meaningful depth. It's nice to dream, I guess

Last time I played real pinball was January 16th, 2020

What the fuck lads

super pinball enthusiast here, have 3 pins, adams family, munsters premium, and twilight zone, munters is only ok the others are amazing, 90s machines are sinply the best. I have to say medieval madness is like a 7.5/10, how the fuck do people consider it the best of all time

Baby Pac-Man is my favorite arcade game

[Anonymous No.7275270]

I played Granny and the Gators (similar game) and the arcade portion was very unapproachable. High learning curve, if not just outright uncontrollable. Also tough to understand. Not like Pac-man at all.

What's another arcade game that could benefit from a pin hybrid? Space Invaders. I guess. Or Arkanoid. Basically anything could work in theory.

People like Medieval Madness because the central toy is great. And the rules are structured in a sort of interesting way.

It would be cool if Addams Family had a different code set that was more complex, like Bride of Pinbot 2.0

As >>7275270 said, it's fast, and it looks really good. I don't like it either. Same with Monster Bash, which is incredibly repetitive to me.

Also nice collection, anon. I have an Addams too, Judge Dredd, Tales from the Crypt and Banzai Run. Might get another fast & fun system 11 this year (Mousin' Around or Jokerz).

Banzai run has the playfeild in the upright section no? If so how is it, gimmicks like that are awesome, thats why I got munsters, has the tiny playfeild with mini balls

It would be cool if there was a King Kong pinball machine with a Banzai Run-type backbox, where the upper playfield represented King Kong climbing up a building.

Medieval Madness will always be my favorite pinball machine, though sadly - I've never played it in real life. I'm hoping once covid dies down, I can look for places to play real pinball.
