Pinball Quest for NES. Never heard of it til 2 or 3 days ago because of a Metal Jesus video and it looks really interesting. Any time RPG elements are combined with any other genre it always piques my interest.

Good on paper, disappointing in execution. I have this one.

The rpg elements might not be perfect but it's still a fantasy pinball game with monsters roaming around on the field

I'm quite a fan of pinball games like dragon's fury, alien cruss.

Pinball games that simulate an actual pinball machine are however not my cup of tea.

Kinda curious what's so subpar about the game, do the rpg elements ruin the gameplay or are the lvl's just mediocre.

Just kind of bland. Bland "table" designs, bland graphics, and almost circus sounding music.

And the ball-physics are kind of weird. I have played a lot of Pin-Bot on NES, so I just might be too used to those physics.
