best multi layer pinball

What's the general consensus as to which ss game with multiple levels/layers pf is the best player? I'm feeling like my collection needs this innovative phase in pinball history.
Still loving my Metallica Premium

Blach Hole, best ever lower playfield  experience.
If you don't remember the 70s then you were on drugs.
If you remember playing pinball in the 70s you were having a good time.
If you don't remember anything,  then read about it here,

+1 to Black Hole , I do own one though , so i'm a bit biased  %.%.  I like the challenge of having to hit a complete set of targets down , when playing downstairs , failing to get a full set you lose the ball ....
 I havent played all multi level games from that era ,so they maybe a few more that are good playing games. others might know.
I really enjoy JJP Wizard of Oz upper playfields, Esp the upper left  playfield "Castle Rescue" What a amazing game!

I'm also firmly in with Black Hole, I've had others (like HH) but the overall integration of the lower playfield on BH play wise and theme wise, and in particular the challenge of not loosing the ball from the lower playfield makes it my favorite.

If AC/DC counts, then I go for this.
Otherwise Haunted House, classic.
If it isn't broke, it isn't pinball.

Yeah I always liked Haunted House.  I remember first playing it on site in Timezone when I was about 15 and have wanted one ever since I thought about owning pins myself.

I think Black Hole is the winner, with HH a close second.

Although games like ACDC, BK, BK2000 etc have an upper playfield / lower playfield, its just not the same as BH

Black hole for the lower playfield and Flash Gordon and Black Knight for the upper. Can't go wrong with any of them really.

Black Hole, Black Knight and Haunted House would be the three I'd pick. If it were one, it would be Haunted House.

Some interesting others would be Jungle Lord and Solar Fire.

Black Knight 2000. Light show and audio second to none !

ACDC Premium etc . Awesome modern game.

Congo. Because fighting the Gorilla backwards with reversed flippers is a head fark which is fun and Congo is a dam unique n fun game.

Never played a Black Hole so can't rate that like the other guys have.

Bugs Bunny has a basic sunken flipper/sunken lower tiny playfield. Bugs Bunny is a fun visual and audio package overall. Who doesn't like Looney Tunes n That era of artwork. Probably the only ? White pinball machine I can remember. Translite is awesome.

Will Stern make another game one day like BK2000 or Black Hole hardware wise with that second level ?
If Stern got the licence to redo Black Knoght 2000, I think they would sell by the truckload of all modern hardware.
Doesn't hurt to mix it right up in the future ?
Behind every garage door could be a pinball collectors
"Cave of Treasures" 55 in my collection
