This is a collection of games that have been reviewed on Last Game of the Night, a late-night pinball variety show.
Mesmerizing and relaxing musical generator.
Kinda surprised we haven't seen this level of crudeness in an IRL pinball yet!
Exactly what it says on the tin. No emulators or VMs needed. Just pop it and launch it and play your childhood memories.
Truly the ideological inverse of Sonic Spinball (1993), Pinballvania! is a pinball platformer with juicy sound design and satisfying boss fights. However, at times it can feel a bit like a puzzle just to travel between levels. It's still immensely enjoyable!
From the moment I entered the playfield, I was overcome with the urge to escape. I ran to the flippers; they would not let me drain. A black ball--wait, I thought I was the ball, who's this?--with a golden star upon its countenance--was following me at every step. I clicked, and found that I had the means of lobbying myself every which way direction. My points counted down as fast as they had counted up. What does it mean? WHAT DOES IT MEAN????
WHAT IS YOUR PINBALL MANIFESTO!?
Have you ever played a pinball game where you walked away from it after ball 3 with more questions than answers?
Very simple concept layout featuring pineapple bumpers, pink targets, and double flippers. Oh, and I've never listened to Glass Animals before, but this groovy tune is definitely making me wanting a bigger diversity of music represented in "band and music" pinball games.
This is no simple baking-themed pinball. Oh no. It is a whimsical test of endurance and perseverance.
NOT a gardening sim, this pinball is a proper platformer with rich tactile sounds and a decent "windy breeze" mechanic to help with nudging the ball up into the various branches of this labyrinthine garden to explore.
Resource management meets pinball in this fun gardening simulator! Expect to spend as many of your resources on buying up extra balls as you do on tomatoes.
A truly relaxing pinball game with excellent physics.
Hilariously, the emergent gameplay in this is learning how to play pinball when you can only double-flip--unless you are already killed in raising one, and only one, eyebrow at a time.
MANBALL is the specific pinball game included in this mini-game collection. Something about it gives off big "Myth of Sisyphus" energy/despair vibes.
While not a highly developed *pinball*, it is an excellent pinball *adaptation* of the iconic dash mechanics found in the emotional indie platformer Celeste.
A perfectly serviceable prototype of what typing mechanics could look like in a virtual pinball. Lots of opportunities for what COULD be!
aka "too many balls in the playfield spoil the score"
