Pinball Classic 1.3

The days of Windows XP are long gone with Microsoft simply discontinuing support for one of its most iconic Operating Systems. However, the generation which grew with Windows XP still has fond memories of the various qualities and problems associated with the OS. The great thing about Windows XP was that it had well-designed games it had to offer which didn't require any sort of online connection in order to play. Pinball was probably the best offering of the lot as its unique scoring system and fantastically simple gameplay meant that it was playable by one and all. Pinball Classic has been developed by TerranDroid with the idea of capturing the same style as offered by the old-school pinball game offered in Windows XP.

Pinball Classic is a very simple game with minimalistic offerings beside the pinball game itself. The game has only one pinball board and you can keep playing for ages together without the need to worry about collecting any sort of coins or stars in order to continue playing. The game simply replicates all aspects of the Windows version with the scoring style kept similar as well in order to ensure that anyone who is familiar with the Windows pinball version doesn't have any issues in understanding how to score a great number of points.

Pinball Classic has solid graphics and engaging gameplay which makes it very good for continuous gaming for long hours. The gameplay is simplistic yet so engaging that you would find it hard to stop playing to achieve higher scores. Each game begins with three pinballs and until you have lost all three pins, you can keep accumulating a high score by keeping the pinball in play. There are two guarding sticks available at the bottom of the board which is controlled by the player in order to keep the pinball away from the sink. The sticks are also used for powering the pinball into the upper regions of the board in order to strike different objects and gain as many points as possible.

The physics of the pinball game are an important aspect which helps in deciding whether the game would fail or succeed. Pinball Classic does a good job in this regard with the game's realistic physics ensuring that the player doesn't lose attention in the game due to unrealistic movement of the ball.

Pinball Classic tries replicating the Windows game by also introducing similar sounds to ensure that you are engulfed with nostalgia while playing the game. The quirky sounds are intriguing as each object offers a different sound and it ensures that you are never bored during the game itself.

The pinball game does a good job with the scoring system as well. The game goes into detail to explain how one can earn the maximum points by providing information about how the points are accumulated during the game. Moreover, the pinball game also keeps a record of the highest scores so that you can easily compete with your best scores whenever you play the game.
