Tell us more about Black Rose and what you like about it; it is a pin I reckon I would be interested in down the track.

Hmm, where to start:

Black Rose was my first pin, I bought it working oh, I dunno 7 or 8 years ago now. Probably more, but don't want to think about it

I love the original theme, the music suits the pin perfectly. The broadside cannon is a great surprise to 1st time players, it usually scares them when the ball comes hurtling at them from the back of the machine. The under playfield cannon is a neat toy, I have not needed to do anything with it other than lamps/flashers but I have heard it can be a bugger to level. The lighting when you load the cannon is awesome, all lights go out except the red GI, what a cool payoff...

The art is great, the game itself is a simple affair really. That seems to be the love/hate for collectors, the rules are not deep at all, a bunch of modes (including 3 video modes) sink ships, rinse and repeat. 2 ball multi ball, which can be converted to 3 ball by locking 2 and, umm, that's it.

I love it as you can just walk up and play. A good "pub" style machine, no learning required but you can come up with high scoring tactics if you want. It is a popular machine with kids and non-pinheads because the play is so approachable.

I hope this is of some help. Any other questions about it, just ask away!

PS and cows, it has hidden cows in the game :)

Cheers
