### 4/5 — It’s back on again!

*2026-08-03, version 1.0.5*

So, I saw reviews that complained that the game didn’t work anymore. Well, it does. 
It’s a decent pinball game, but one thing I wish you could do is use the coins you earn to buy the other pinball machines, rather than having to use actual money. I know it’s gotta make money for the company, but come on, this has been on the AppStore for ages now, the least you can do is make the other pinball machines free or make use of the coins to buy them.

### 3/5 — Erro de áudio e demora na aquisição de mesa

*2026-05-11*

O jogo é graficamente muito interessante e desenvolvido. Porém há um momento em que o áudio simplesmente some!!! Agora, quanto as mesas: poderiam facilitar a quantidade de jogos antes para conseguir mais uma mesa!

**Developer response:** Olá! A perda de som deve-se, na maioria dos casos, ao facto de o botão «Ring/Silent» (Toque/Silencioso) na lateral do telemóvel ter sido premido, ou de a função «Ringer» (Toque) estar silenciada em «Definições > Sons e sensações táteis» (ou «Sons» em modelos mais antigos). Diz-me se isto te ajudou! Obrigado pela tua avaliação. 
Hi! The sound loss is, in most cases, due to the Ring/Silent button on the side of the phone being pressed, or the Ringer function is muted in Settings > Sounds & Haptics (or Sounds on older models). Let me know if this helped! Thank you for your review.

### 2/5 — Make single player free

*2025-10-23, version 1.0.5*

So I installed this game because it looked like it was going to be fun, I tried to play single player and it worked for one game but then it said that I needed coins to play it again, and the only way to get extra coins is if I play against others and earn coins. Which is stupid. Why can’t multiplayer be different. Or you can just earn other stuff from it. So I have to give this game 2 stars.

### 5/5 — So perfect

*2025-08-27, version 1.0.5*

It’s so awesome seeing some of my favorite games like this. A great mobile game to have on the go. The boards are all SO detailed. It’s like every time I play I see something new.

### 1/5 — Trop de bugs

*2025-06-30*

Le jeu se fige constamment plus aucune action possible.

**Developer response:** Bonjour, merci pour votre commentaire ! Je suis désolé de l'apprendre. Puis-je vous demander si vous avez essayé de réinstaller l'application ? Cela pourrait aider le système à revenir dans la bonne direction ! 
Hi, thanks for your review! Sorry to hear that, may I ask if you have tried reinstalling the application? It may help nudge the system in the right direction!

### 1/5 — Selecting not workin

*2025-04-23, version 1.0.5*

Can somebody please tell me how to select mision at pipboy?? And clicking pause to get to main menu is reacting horribly slowly!

### 5/5 — Sehr nice!

*2025-04-21*

Tolle Tische, bitte Controller Support einfügen 🎮🕹️ dann kaufe ich sie alle!

### 2/5 — Verwundert

*2025-03-10*

Das Spiel ändert häufig seinen Namen. Mal ist es eine Simulation und mal das komplette Spiel. Meine erspielten Daten verändern sich arg. Teil verlieren meine Charaktere ihre komplette Ausrüstung usw

**Developer response:** Hallo! Die App hieß „Bethesda Pinball“. Es tut mir leid, dass du deinen Spielfortschritt verloren hast. Ich werde deinen Bericht an das Team weiterleiten! Vielen Dank für die ehrliche Bewertung. Hi! Bethesda Pinball has always been the name of the app. Sorry to hear you lost progress in the game, I'll forward your report to the team! Thank you for the honest review.

### 1/5 — 買いたいんだけど

*2025-02-27*

ファンです。
もともとPCでプレイしています。
iOS版に共通してある問題が解決されれば買います。

iphoneでピンボールをする人は極力ボールを近くで見たい。

シリーズを通してカメラ機能を充実させて。

1.もっと拡大できるように

2.上下にカメラの位置が動くように
(見る必要がないなら拡大したいため)

3.大きいiPhone用の解像度を用意して(黒い帯いらない)

4.ナッジはバーチャルスティック(色は透過するものがいい)を実装して好きな位置に配置できて、サイズもある程度変えられるものがいい。

5.市場は狭いかもしれませんが、ピンボール用にコントローラー作ったら売れると思います

### 5/5 — Zen’s pinnacle. Newer tables just don’t compare.

*2025-01-28, version 1.0.5*

DOOM has to be one of the greatest tables of all time. This collection is the apex of Zen’s offerings. Zen Pinball World is both gimmicky and awful to play on iPads (including Pro M4) with horrible frame rate and poor use of screen real estate. Zen: if you’re listening, this is the one. Build your tables like these and I’ll gladly fork over my money, even if I have to re-buy the same games!
