Its probably my fav sys1 game. some people say the game play is a bit slow but i reckon if the flippers are set up just right its awesome to play. The gap between the flippers is a bit more than most sys1 games but with practise (and luck!) the ball can be bounced back up off the post between the flippers. I like the way it saves the bonus multipliers on extra ball.. lets you score some big points!

They say the same thing about Genie...I restored one a while ago and after it was finished, it was not slow.. One of the most under rated pins - best system 1 machine I've played.

Genie's appear from time to time on eBay.. Wotto did a really nice one a while ago.

It's my favorite system 1 and if you ever get a chance to play it, you will be hooked.

What's the hoo ha I hear about it being a slow clunker? There seem to be conflicting reports out there. Seems to be a love/hate with some people. Personally I love the way it looks. Never played one though.
