To put it simply - It is a "classic" Williams pinball. Some say that along with Addams Family, it is the best late model pin ever made.

Mine is currently for sale ;

Funhouse is certainly an entertaining and challenging game.  Very hard to master and constantly kicks you in the butt.

Although not hugely complex it has a massive following across the world and is quite often played in Pinball tournaments.

Being a non licenced theme, plenty of parts available if required.

In my opinion, one of the really **great** games. Fantastic shot map, perhaps the best toy on any game, wonderful artwork, great humour as Rudy slips into the dark side, balanced scoring, fun modes - really very little not to like. Certainly one that will never leave my collection.

Unfortunately (or maybe not...) I have never really put any time on one. (Fortunate because maybe I would want one!)

But it sounds good.

Great Game - One of my all time favourites and one of the best themes. The carnival / amusemunt park theme and the great colourful playfield make it look awesome too. Of course dont forget Rudy the talking head that is just one of the best toys on a playfield ever !! Really love this game and I love hitting Rudy in the chops and when he gobbles the ball - in fact I may go have a game now!!
Cheers

I agree with every word!  ^^^
Mine's an absolute keeper too.

To really learn about the game, this tutorial is excellent (long though!!)
