Yeah I know Freeballin' isn't a real sim like pinball game, but I find it the most fun of all the pinall iPhone games so far, and at least the ball physics are MUCH MUCH better than Monster. Monster is really starting to annoy me now actually, the ball physics are total crap and switching to different screens has gotten extremely annoying. I think most people are just "oohing" and "ahhing" over this cause it's something interesting, new, and original, but underneath it all, Monster Pinball is really mediocre.

Pfffft! Freeballin' ain't a pinball game. It's an arcade game with pinball elements. Pinball Dreams, now *that's* a pinball game. And Pinball Fantasies will be out soon too (which I can tell you now, is looking a lot better than Dreams.) IMHO for people who like real pinball, those are the ones to go for.

Ah, I think there's only a few cheap-ass people around here that always complain at anything above 0.99, or even 1.99. This seems like a good price to me. I'm not sure I'm going to like it, but heck, it's only 3.99. I'm happy to pay that price to find out.

I am totally smitten with this little wonder. it's a real joy to play! incredibly polished and full of character, it's great fun discovering new details and effects on each new board! as with some other comments, I do find at times I miss a ball because my fingers have slipped but its not a huge deal. for the price of a latte, this game is well worth it!!!

Monster Pinball is a really nice, and well polished game. The sounds are incredible too. The only constructive feedback I can offer for future updates is that the physics seem slightly off compared to a real pinball game. While this might be the intent, the ball is so small and moves so quickly that it can frankly be difficult at times to follow along. Strange as it would seem, if the ball moved a tad slower it might be a bit more fun. I also noticed some jerkiness at times as the ball flew around the screen. Obviously, there is so much to like about the game, I am simply focusing on what I think could make it even better.

Been playing it for the past 30 minutes. Eh, it's ok. It's an interesting touch how it jumps to different screens, but overall it's just an OK pinball game and the nitch it has wears out quickly. Freeballin' is a lot more fun as a pinball gae, and has various themes as well.

As a fellow developer, please support our price points. $4 is very little to pay, considering what you get with this amazing game! Thank you.

It's not like its 20 dollars or 30. Even if they drop the 3.99, big deal. One less coffee purchase for the week. Not much of a sacrifice there to skip that expensive coffee from that shop with the space guy name.
