Psycho Pinball PC

Psycho Pinball is another simulator of popular flippered machines, inspired by 21st Century Entertainment's best-selling titles such as Pinball Dreams and Pinball Fantasies. The author of the game is an experienced British studio Codemasters, which has already recorded several similar productions for ZX Spectrum, C-64, Amstrad and Amiga computers. Psycho Pinball was originally released in 1994 on the SEGA Mega Drive console.

The game offers 4 stylistically and thematically diversified tables. The Wild West is set in the American Wild West, Trick or Treat is dedicated to the popular Halloween celebration, and The Abyss will take us on a journey into the submarine abyss of the Caribbean Sea. The fourth of the tables called Psycho is maintained in the atmosphere of a slightly frightening amusement park and is a kind of connection between all the tables in the game. During the game, by activating specially created ramps, the fun is transferred from the main table to one of the three traditional tables mentioned above. The game continues until you lose your balls, when you return to the home table again. This solution makes the game much more attractive and introduces a breath of fresh air to the not very flexible pinball genre.

According to the standard set by 21st Century Entertainment productions, Psycho Pinball features an animated display, a number of bonuses, such as multi-ball or extra-ball, and a varied soundtrack that changes dynamically depending on the situation on the table. In addition, the developers also introduced several special mini-games played on the display screen. During the game we will also play blackjack, shoot ghosts or fish fishing. The individual tables are shown in a typical top-down perspective: the image is scrolled from top to bottom and the camera follows the ball. Up to 4 players can take part in the game at once, competing with each other alternately.
