Malzbie's Pinball Collection Demo

Pinball is probably not as popular as it used to be back in the day, especially because computers have brought many new ways for people to entertain themselves. However, pinball simulations can still be tons of fun, especially if they feature great design and decent physics. In fact, a good physics engine is a must in order to really feel like you are standing over the table.

Malzbie's Pinball Collection is a pinball game that provides you with all the fun of the arcade without having to leave the house, which is always a plus. To make things even better, it features multiple tables to choose from, as well as a realistic physics engine that allows you to use your intuition when it comes to keeping the ball in play and scoring more points.

Speaking of which, in case you are not familiar with the concept, the whole goal of the game is for you to keep the ball rolling around the table in order to hit certain marks, which in turn rewards you with points. The longer you keep the ball in play the more points you get, but it gets increasingly more difficult later on when various power-ups become available.

To make things more like real-life, you can also nudge the table a little bit in order to get the ball where you want it, although you can only do it for so long before you are disqualified from the game. You also get multiple lives and shots if you manage to get certain power-ups, which allows you to keep playing even after you lose the ball once. Naturally, this is a great way to improve your scores.

As it’s always the case, there is a leaderboard you can fight for and display your name for everyone to see, at least if you manage to get enough points. As for the graphics, this is still a pinball game, so do not expect anything too great. The tables are very detailed, on the other hand, and the sound effects are enjoyable too for the most part.

All things considered, Malzbie's Pinball Collection could easily keep you busy for a few hours if you are a pinball enthusiast, but the free-to-play model only allows you to try one of the tables. Thus, you must pay real money for other tables, which makes this more of a demo than anything else.
