Pachinko Pop

Pachinko Pop is a casual game with very simple gameplay, thing which makes it even more addictive. You will gain control of a cannon which has to launch balls and destroy various things on the board before being taken down into one of the urns at the bottom by the forces of gravity.

Liz and Sam are exploring the Kansas Museum of Relics when all of a sudden, Sam triggers the Time Machine of the Gods and the two are transported back in time. In order to make their way home, they will now have to play a series of mini-games and complete all the challenges.

You will have a limited number of lives, displayed in the top left corner and if you lose a level, you lose a life. You can buy more levels using in-game gold bars. The gold bars can be achieved in two different ways: as a bonus when completing extra levels or you can buy them using real money.

The objectives differ, yet the gameplay remains basically the same. On some levels you will have to achieve a certain score, on others you will need to get the ball into one or several urns, some levels will require you to free some items and drop them in the runs, etc. Only one of these goals can be set for a levels, or sometimes multiple ones.

There are some levels where you will have to defeat giant monsters like crocodiles, spiders, scorpions or even sharks. Hit them several times with the balls in order to succeed. Other levels will require your aiming skills: pass the ball through a narrow corridor or hit two hidden pegs can prove to be quite a difficult task.

There are several locations where you will be able to travel to: start in ancient Egypt and work your way to ancient Babylon where you can help build the famous tower. Unlock the gate to Greece and you will be able to see some of the famous world wonders.

If you thought Atlantis will never be explored, think again as you must travel through this underwater paradise all the way to the home of the Minotaur: Crete.

The game is a great pass-time and even more, it can get pretty addictive. Be careful not to lose many lives or you'll be tempted to take out your credit card and buy more gold. Graphics are great for this type of game and the fact that Pachinko Pop is constantly updated makes it a must play.
