Table Pack #14: Centaur™ and Pin·Bot™ has just been released today for iOS, Android and Amazon. You're going to enjoy these two classic tables! This update also includes great deals on all of the tables we've ever released.
The Table of the Month is Cactus Canyon™. You can once again play one of the greatest tables, ever made, and it's FREE!
Centaur (1981) was the first table selected by the fans to be added into the Pinball Arcade! Features unique to Centaur include the blue Guardian Rollovers, which were the first to include Outlane control, directed by the flipper buttons and the Equitable Multi-Ball. Centaur's outlanes offer a unique feature allowing a well-timed nudge to save the ball from draining.
Pin·Bot (1986) is a brilliant design from industry veterans, Barry Oursler and Python Anghelo. Players are challenged to advance to all nine planets in our solar system before reaching the Sun. The playfield features the Robot Visor which can be raised revealing two eye targets for you to achieve Multi-ball.

The voting to add a Stern Classic table was very close, but the winner was Flight 2000 narrowly edging out Seawitch.
Flight 2000 features three Lift-Off stages and a very cool maze-like ball lock system. Be on the lookout for this fun and unique Stern table, we'll be adding it to the Pinball Arcade later this year.

After being told that he was going to be Table of the Month, the normally cool Dr. Dude spun out the front door to the local tavern. Can you guess which two tables will be in Table Pack 15?
