- I to was a dedicated fan of Pinball Dreams. But I've forgotten it now I've
- played Pinball Fantasies.
-
- It is brilliant.
-
- Get it get it get it get it get it get it get the message?
-
- Here's a quick review of the four tables:
-
- Partyland is excellent fun, loads of things to do, skill shots to make,
- three flippers - it's really good. The music is suitably twee and
- annoying, but it adds to the atmosphere somehow.
-
- Billion Dollar Game Show is odd but fun. The music is well weird, but not
- too irritating.
-
- Speed Devils I played about two times. It's boring, the turkey of the bunch.
- There's little to do and little to see. Not even as good as Steel Wheel on
- Pinball Dreams.
-
- Stones 'n' Bones is the best. Great atmosphere and music (though many of the
- samples are nicked from Nightmare) with towers to unlock, vaults to enter,
- all that malarky.
-
- The tables are in no order of easiness (a la Pinball Dreams). They're all
- quite tough. It'll take a while to break them but it's fun trying.

-
- I think so. It might have changed. The new Amiga Format has a news article
- about it but I don't have it with me.

- No problem.
