    btw,is the scoring somewhat buggy?On some tables it just shows me my best result,on others it shows me two or three but then only the first one is correct while the other two results i already had beaten multiple times.

    I don't care about the global ranking but i'd love to beat my own scores.That's simply not possible or i'm too dumb to check the whole system.Sucks.

    My very best rankings seems to be accurate though.

    It's decent not the best out there, if you are on the fence between a few pass on it for now.

    Zen Pinball is by far my favorite iOS app. I have all the tables, and just added up my time spent with Zen Pinball this year (using the "statistics" menu)....112 hours. Ok, so maybe I spent a little too much time with it. :)

    My 5 favorite tables:
    - Epic Quest (fun table in general, and i love the RPG aspects)
    - Boba Fett (I hated this table when I first got it, but love it now that I have figured out what to do)
    - Empire Strikes Back (lots of multiball opportunities, missions are tough but not ridiculous)
    - Wolverine (can't really put my finger on why, I just really dig this table)
    - Return of the Jedi (once you get used to the "rubber ball" physics, this table is a blast)

    My 5 least favorite tables
    - Shaman (seriously, everything about this table is terrible)
    - Iron Man (low scoring, boring missions)
    - Civil War (targets are really tough to hit, just don't really like the overall layout)
    - Ghost Rider (feels really small and cramped)
    - Paranormal (just kinda dull, no real personality)

    Thanks for the info.
    Have you bought the Dr Strange table? If so, is it good and half price?

    Has anyone installed the new update for Zen Pinball on the iPad 2 iOS 7.0.4 ?
    Any issues ?

    The note says "the Dr Strange table is now available" but it looks like I can buy it even though I haven't installed the new update (there is a "new" on the icon of the table).Haven't tried to buy it though.

    It's full price and its very good a little tough but when you get use to it it's fun. Love the whole design of the table it's really stunning. It has a different mission system where you have to shoot at different areas instead of just one which can be a bit tricky.

    So I own most of the tables on XBox, but am now finding that I like this much better on the iPad Air, really easy to play on the new lighter iPad. I will probably add all of the tables in the next week. And I love competitive leader boards with friends, so feel free to add me on Game Center (Kennfusion).

    My favorite tables on XBox are:
    Fantastic Four
    Excaliber
    Blade

    My favorites are Starfighter Assault, Darth Vader, Infinity Gauntlet and Epic Quest.

    Im a casual pinball player too, so no objective chasing for me, just pinballing and getting whatever. Even through that, Zen Pinball's one of my favorite apps ever.

    I for one started to like pinball when I kind of discovered 3D Pinball Space Cadet on my Windows XP some weeks ago.

    Anyway, I wonder if the X-Men table is good or not.

    x-men is ok it's a little hard to hit the ramps that you want. I would pass on it for now and get a better table.

    So I bought the Doctor Strange table and it is very good but the music volume of it is slower than on the other tables.
    Am I the only one who has this issue?

    Super League Football table now available...
    I'm all over it!

    Edit:
    Quick warning:
    Table is $1.99
    Then appears to be another purchase for each team you want (liverpool, arsenal etc) for another $1.99 each. Seems only the Zen team is unlocked...a little surprised with that move.
    Still a pretty cool table and totally different vibe with the sports theme and league play.

    @JCman7: I expect to see you kicking my butt on this table as well just like EVERY OTHER one...grrrr ;)
