Indiana Jones (take 2)
Managed to get some real pinball therapy (following the less than well-played tournament yesterday).
Walked past an unoccupied new Indiana Jones machine in Kinopalatsi, and just had to give it a go.
The game is obviously new, and the machinery very responsive. Thus the play was as smooth as possible. The game is rather forgiving, and especially the center post between flippers will cause long ball times. It took a while to get used to the presence of the post, and managed to fumble two balls in the first game partially on its account.
The second game went much better, got a couple of multiballs going (including the eight ball Grail mode) and scored enough for a replay. The shots on the game seemed to be rather forgiving, and for a player who consistently struggles with the mode selection on the 1993-vintage Indy, this is a very welcome change indeed.
Needless to say, I liked the game a lot, and will definitely head back for the game, and will consider participating in the Pelika-organized contest to be held next weekend.
Matti:
I is a very entertaining pinball machine. Worth spending quite a few euros and hours, both for fun and for improving basic skills and reflexes.
