Pure Pinball app good for
Keep going your great work!
Cant wait to see your others tables
I like the physics a lot, but theres no highscore, so 4 stars (thats an easy 5 for you to get right there).
As a bonus, let me bump the table using the accelerometer/by hitting my phone.
I like the Pure Pinball app. The game play is quite realistic but I don’t like the feel of the flippers. There is a lag time between when I touch the screen and when the flippers react. Not really a recipe for achieving a high score.
Just about great, but not quite.
After the download, it kept crashing so I rebooted. Now it works great (without a lag, which I saw was someone elses issue).
Ive only played about 5 turns, but dont have any complaints at this time.

Ok, so after playing for about 30 minutes, it sucked my battery dry.
But its still fun.
Some bad moments
Seems like a fun pinball app, I enjoyed it for the short while it worked. There was a bit of lag with the flippers, but it wasnt too bad. The app kept freezing after a game. I tried everything - rereading instructions, tapping everywhere maniacally, waiting patiently, restarting the app, nothing worked. I even tried deleting and redownloading, but nothing worked. I have deleted the app permanently. Very disappointed.
It could be fun if you could actually play it. Trouble is, its really difficult to figure out how to release the ball. Follow instructions repeatedly, but either Nothing happens or the ball moves a little and says Whow or perversely, it will decide to release the ball and allow you to play, but next time, forget it. There seems to be no real consistent method to release the ball and having to repeatedly try to figure it out, because what seemed to work one time, does Not work a second time; is an exercise in frustration and definitely Not Fun. Really disappointing. Just add a button on the side of the game that releases the ball every time. Would that be so difficult?
But how do you launch the ball when you cant see the ball launcher?
Pros: very polished looking.
Support airplay
Cons: some frame rate issues on iPad 3.
Table is okay, not great. Feels a bit cramped.
Limited camera angles (3)
But honestly, the ball physics are where it falls down. It has no weight, and there are no minor bounces - yes, it bounces off of things,but when it falls and hits your flipper - barely anything. "dead ball" feel.
Right now the iOS Pin to beat is Pinball arcade. This has promise, but Id want better physics.
For $1.99 it is way over priced. The ball play and basic game is as it was when released back in 2004. Pretty crude maybe you could update it Im not sure. Im into pinball and try most games when available three stars is probably way to generous and $1.99 is way too much. I recommend that you pass on this I wish I had.
After the new update it kicks the ball out and it vanishes. Tried every thing with no luck. Cant play it even for one second.
