Thanks for your support!** What the Press Are Saying: Penny Arcade Report (Ben Kuchera) If you’re a fan of pinball, Star Wars, or fun things, this is pretty much a must-purchase. GamesRadar As a complete package, Star Wars Pinball delivers the kind of arcade experience that makes you crave just one more game, constantly chasing to surpass your own score for the sheer satisfaction of it. Desctructoid - 9.5/10 Each table is chock full of beautiful art, character cameos, and tracks pulled straight from the films' soundtracks. These first three tables are a bold and equally stellar introduction to Star Wars Pinball, and they'll keep you more than busy until Zen Studios drops the next batch. Game Informer - 8.5/10 You don't need to be a Star Wars fan to recognize the creativity Zen has brought to the new tables. The company continues to include more fantasy elements in its designs. AppAdvice “Star Wars fans will certainly enjoy the visual treat this game offers. That, combined with the fun gameplay make this a must have. It is impressive. Most impressive. Jump into hyperspace to check it out in the App Store.” MacLife For fans of the franchise or virtual pinball in general, it's a real treat!
