This is how video games should be.
Just downloaded "The Force Awakens” pack and played a whiles.
Thoroughly excellent. If you like Star Wars and you like pinball at all, these are fantastic.
I’ve played some of the Zen tables over the past couple years, all the tables I’ve seen are
beautifully designed and lots of fun. These new Star Wars Episode VII tables are my favorite so far. I’ve enjoyed all of the Star Wars tables, but these will stand among the best.
For one, I’m not a pinball wizard, and these are slightly more forgiving than some of the other Star Wars tables. Not easy, mind you, but not quite as brutal for a casual player like me.
Meanwhile if you liked the new movie (I thought it was great) then you will appreciate how Zen once again captures the energy and
humor of this crazy Star Wars business. I’m playing these on a Macbook Pro, which doesn’t do the tables justice, but still, they look great and the gameplay is excellent.
*** I DO wish that there were a way to fix/patch flipper lag, which has been a problem on some of the other Star Wars tables and is slightly noticeable on these new ones sometimes when you first launch the ball. ***
I see from the forums that this lag issue is a problem on the consoles as well, so it would be great to get that cleared up! :) The fact that I play them (on a laptop, no less) despite this issue is a testament to how great they are.
I also would like to see some of Rey’s theme included on the Force Awakens table, instead of just the music from the original (“episode IV”). A pretty minor grievance!!
These are some amazingly well-designed games and I hope lots of people enjoy them as much as I have. I’m hoping Zen will turn out some more Force Awakens tables, although these 2 will keep me busy for a looooong time! Thanks, Zen - you guys have some incredible talent.
