Any pointers for a newbie? The last video pinball game I played was Alien Crush ... :oops:

This is honestly as close as I ever have gotten to playing a virtual pinball game. I remember me and some friends would say the truthful highscore one of us had, and if one had one higher, we would say we 1up'ed them in score to a reasonable extent, and make up some bs excuse as to why we said we had something different.

"What do you mean? I got that like, last week."

"Ooooh, I thought we were referring to just THIS week. See I got X more score that you last Thursday."

And that would go on for a little bit longer, then we would laugh. You still neither knew whether any of us were telling the truth to start with.
I just re-downloaded about 2 months back and have played a lot of it. And I was pleasantly surprised to hear actual sound-effects that were pretty good. When I played it back in the day, I played it at school with no speakers so I had no idea what it sounded like.

It was definitely one of the better games that came with a Windows OS, unless solitaire and minesweeper was your thing. I personally hated minesweeper as I could never beat it, and I still don't know how to play Solitaire really. Pinball though is universally known. I'm pretty sure it came with XP too.

I actually don't think I've ever heard the sound effects either lol.
