This app is amazing, each board has a story and objectives and mini-games just like real pinball machines. It's not just a ball, bumpers, and flippers. Plus it runs very smoothly
The only thing missing really, is subtitles for dialogue, it would help a lot. I look forward to the continued development of this app!
Ok. Like the idea of trying new tables for those who don’t have the Pinball FX series.
However, at a random time when you play ANY pinball table, the game freezes, and then if you try to resolve the issue by closing and opening the game back up without losing any progress, the game goes on without any audio. That issue is massive, and made me stop using the game.
Another issue occurs only in the Kong table. When you try to launch a ball, on uncommon occasions, you actually can’t launch the ball, so the only way to launch a ball in that event is to close and open the game back up without losing any progress.
I see no other issues, except the two bugs.

Hi Willy Petty, sorry to hear about the issues you’ve encountered. Please reach out to our support team via the in-game support button or at https://help.netflix.com/en/contactus They can help investigate these problems. Thanks for your feedback!It’s okay, neat tables but this suffers badly from getting screwed by Pinball randomness. As in the ball falls perfectly down the middle all to often. The ramps are annoying to even get the ball to complete them. It’s mildly amusing but gets annoying enough that I don’t care if I play or not.
There should be an option to block the ball from going out for those who just want to play pinball without being annoying by outs constantly.

Hi there, thanks for your feedback! We appreciate your thoughts on the pinball game. We'll consider your suggestions for improving ball control and reducing frustration in future updates. Happy gaming!Now we’re talking! Some of Zen’s coolest new tables, now finally running at a good frame rate. This went from being unplayable to my new favorite pinball app. Worth a Netflix subscription on its own!

Hello Vasillios, and thanks for the updated review! We're thrilled to hear you're enjoying the new tables and that the frame rate has improved! Your support means a lot to us. Keep flipping and having a great time!Game is ok. First off graphics seem nice, even on iPad Air 4. But I wish not everything was made for phones! Meaning that it's only in portrait mode! Ugh! Then the ball seems to favor the left side. This game cheats! You have three slots next to each flap. But the third slot goes behind them! This is where your ball will end up about half the time. Then, not only do you lose a ball. You lose gameplay! I don't recall them ever doing this in real live machines! Then, the time your ball get killed and another ball drops. Takes way to long! The flappers at top of machine don't really seem helpful at all. I wish that the ball glowed or was a bright color. Because it's really hard to see, especially on the darker colored boards like the first Grimm one.

Hi there, thanks for the review! We're sorry to hear about your experience. We appreciate your feedback on the game's layout, ball behavior, and visual clarity. We're always looking to improve, so we'll take your comments into consideration. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.Hey Netflix,
You've released some great games, and as a big fan of the Zen Studio pinball games, this was a great addition. This 1 star review is not a problem with the game or developers but Netflix's stupid update practices. Who at Netflix came up with the BRILLIANT habit of giving every update to ALL of your games the same generic description? In today's Pinball Master update a new table was added, not that I as a customer would know from that IDIOTIC update description!
Developer Response
Hi Lord Gek! We're glad you enjoy our games, especially Pinball Master. We'll definitely take your comments about the update descriptions up internally. Thanks for your feedback.Often times it’ll miss the extra balls you get, especially if you get them in the 3rd ball in play. The ball routinely bounces off the bookcase directly down the middle to drain. Multiball will drain extremely fast. Physics ate not real accurate.

Hey there, we appreciate the feedback! Sorry to hear that it didn't meet your expectations, especially with regard to the extra balls. We are constantly working on improving the game based on the feedback from our players, so thank you for sharing your feedback on what we could improve.The game has really good production values, but controls are horrible. The area where you control the paddles can’t be adjusted. My advice is split the left and right control area down the middle. When the player want to bump the table, then do it with two both left and right fingers and drag the direction you want to do it. I think it would feel more natural like in irl.

Hi there, and thank you for your feedback! We're glad you appreciate the production values of the game. We’ll take your feedback forward, we really appreciate your thoughts!This game is great … nice having some tables that are different than the tables on the Apple Arcade Zen Studios, but the game seemingly runs at 30fps with no options to change to 60fps. Would also be nice to play in landscape and support external controllers. Still … if you’re already a Netflix subscriber it’s hard to beat the price, and if you haven’t played the other Zen games on various other platforms the lack of 60fps may not bother you.

Hey there! We're glad to hear your honest feedback; it's always valued. We'll certainly consider your input moving forward. Thanks for the review! Your thoughts are truly appreciated!
The only rough part I’ve yet to figure out is the magnet and car feature. Can’t even get CLOSE to the five second challenge. Just cannot figure that one out. Otherwise a fun, medium difficult table. Just keep going for the multi all. Great animations.
Developer Response
