Superb, highly detailed pinball tables with lots of very cool mechanics and I like the animated characters that appear on pretty much every table as well. The graphics are really good and the music sounds amazing(with a headset). I didn't see any slapped together garbage pinball tables yet. The power-ups are a cool mechanic to "cheat" but in a fun way and to achieve things on tables you otherwise likely would not have been able to.

For old-school physics and comfort, Pinball FX3 is my go-to version at times. Pinball FX has some beautiful remastering work on tables. However, I have one comment. The physics of some of the older games really requires some tweaking. The bumpers and flippers on some of the tables are way, way too elastic. If you buy table DLC, definitely get legacy versions because training on FX3 is a lot smoother. Then you adjust for FX's weird physics. I really wonder sometimes if Zen Studios ran any regression tests to ensure the physics translated well enough. If you're a flow player, go for the Williams tables. Some of the best real world tables have been that brand (especially from the 90s).

Not without it's flaws, but Pinball FX is unmatched in the niche world of pinball.

The Williams tables play really well, the music simulation is pretty solid, and the extra models you can unlock are a nice touch. This is the best Zen has done yet.

I'm correcting this review after being informed that the arbitration clause was present from the beginning, and I had apparently missed it the first time. That's a strike for me, but that said: if you don't want to accept arbitration clauses, avoid this game for its EULA. Otherwise, I'd say it's a really great pinball platform with a ton of tables including originals and classics (some, obviously, better than others). Previously I would have gladly recommended this game, but as of August 16, Zen Studios decided to update their EULA to include a binding arbitration clause. This is unacceptable, especially after having put so much time and money into the title only to be effectively locked out after the fact because of a new, objectionable EULA, unless I commit to playing in offline mode through Steam. Shame on Zen for such a stupid move. At the very least they could update the client to allow local-only play so I don't have to accept bad terms without warning. Until that happens (or the EULA is reversed), I'm calling this title a no-go.
