Dialed In New Pin Day
« on: December 18, 2017, 05:32:13 PM »
Well I took the plunge and sold a very nice TZ and potc to fund a Dialed In. Had the machine for 3 days and it is absolutely awesome! It is just a whole lot of fun and the integration of the camera is great. Kids and wife think the selfie mode is hilarious and scratching the lottery tickets by waving your hand is another fun thing to do during game play.

A lot of people bagged the theme when it was released but the theme is all about quantum City and managing disasters, the phone is just how you get info about the disasters.

Also love the idea of the lights progressing down the playfield to attack the flippers, so if you don't hit the shots your flippers weaken or flutter. Some really great ideas incorporated into a super fun game that doesn't take itself too seriously.

Plays super smooth with well controlled shots always returning to the flippers.

So Christmas came a week early for me. Lighting and sound effects are also very well done.

Impressive machine. I must admit I don't like the theme, but they way you have explained it, I look forward to having a game. Not many around, but it only takes a few positive reviews from owners (like you) that can change people's mind. Too many times we are quick to dismiss games because they don't jump out at us !

Sounds like a fun game. Congratulations! Would love to know down the track how the game holds up electronically and mechanically?

Thanks for the write up, does sound like fun. Will have to seek one out now for a flip!

That's how I would describe this game, super smooth. The ball is just so planted. You can tell a master designed it.

Play this side by side to Hobbit and the ball is always jumping around.
