What's cool about it:

6 awesome tables, each with a different theme from a medieval knight tournament to a jurassic fantasy world.
Beautiful HDR effects and high resolution graphics with a wide selection of dynamic cameras.
6 different balls made from different materials - each one acts differently, adding great variety to the game.

Overview:

A great pinball game should not only be amazing from the start, but should continue to be entertaining every time you play it. Dream Pinball 3D - with its six cutting-edge tables - is beckoning you to try your luck and skills.

In addition, we did not skimp on the technology with this game as there are six different style balls, made of different materials, that not only look different, but whose ballistic characteristics will affect the very rolling behaviour of each one of them. Add to that incredible acoustics, state-of-the-art particle technology, HDRI and multilayer 3D sound, a realistic tilt function and motion blur effects and you have the best pinball experience available on the PC that can even be enjoyed on laptops and less powerful, non-gaming computers...

Age requirements: PEGI Rating: 3+

Lacking in depth

Posted on 2010-12-19 07:56:12 by Six_Ways's avatar Six_Ways:

Perhaps I'm spoilt on the Pro Pinball games, but none of these tables really seem to have any heart. There's no real depth to them; I just feel like I'm flipping aimlessly most of the time. No video modes, no 'story', nondescript special modes...
Don't get me wrong, this game IS fun, but only for a while. I've played the Pro Pinball games for hours, really getting to know the tables. read more None of the tables here make me want to do that.
For a pinball game with multiple tables, I'd much rather see Balls Of Steel on GOG.

Best Pinball on Gog so far!

The six tables are all really nice, every one of them, and they are also quiet different towards each other. They all play fun. The ball seems quiet sensitive to me, not sure how realistic the physics are, but, as said, it plays fun. The Soundtrack and the soundeffects are really great, also the look of the table is very nice, up to date you can say.
The tables are: medieval, monster, read more aqua, amber moon (rpg style, rotating something/helicopter and dinosaur.
my favorits are monster, amber moon, medieval and, well, aqua and dino. :)
I could not get the game to run on my netbook with win7starter 32bit. But it could also be the netbook would also net be able to play it at a sufficent framerate if it would work (bevore it crashes i get a message about a very slow cpu detected, but the crash seem related differently - maybe the forum will help further).
Then I encountered difficult on my big pc cause of the use of an 2. monitor, an extendet desktop to a videobeamer. Setting the 2. monitordevice to off solved the problem and the game runs smooth and all. ah, and i have win7pro, 64bit there, with an aticard. These problems may be related only to my configuration or system. Don`t want to generalize..
Despite this, lets say, difficultys i gice the game 5 stars because it is a really great pinball game, the tables are great, gameplay as well, sound too, and so on - I`m very happy to have it. And 6usd seems a fair price, better then 10usd :) I would say this is an arcade must buy for everyone!
Btw., for netbooks i recomand Pro Pinball - Fantastic Journey, just one table, but works, looks and plays good! Not all Pro Pinballs work that well on netbooks as i reed in the forum.
Wish you much fun!

Great Game without the DRM

Posted on 2010-12-10 18:46:15 by hockeycanuck's avatar hockeycanuck:

I must admit, I held off purchasing this game because of all the reviews I saw on the internet regarding the nasty DRM in place. Now thats its on GOG.com I can finally play this game without having to worry about product activation. The tables and graphics are amazing and its a shame there are not anymore pinball sims being made for pc. Worth every penny of the $5.99 spent.
