Whacky, Over-The-Top "Monster Pinball" Arrives In Style
by Jeff Effendi on Sunday 31st May 2009

Aw, it looks a little like Jeff's dog -- yes, the white one.

There's a hell of a lot of pinball games in the App Store, some better than others. Well, whatever the case may be, developers Matmi have a real #1 Pinball Game contender on their hands. Monster Pinball, a whacky, zany and over-the-top pinball game was released in the App Store just a few (more like 20) hours ago.

Rather impressed with this week's releases, Monster Pinball sits comfortably at the near top. Vivid, flamboyant and pastel-coloured-like tables are the order of the day in this unique pinball game. Trust us when we say that this game is uniquely fresh, because it is. I'm usually never one to praise a game in such a genre, but the animations and polished visuals make for a different experience no other developer has yet to offer. The asking price is $3.99, so it may detract a few casual buyers. But for those looking for a polished pinball game, this one may be it.

Here are a few screenshots and Matmi's product description of the game:

Matmi are proud to announce 'MONSTER PINBALL'

Simply the most action packed pinball game you have ever played! Six linked tables bring you into the mind boggling pinball world of the Monster Mafia characters sending you into a spin at every flick of your paddles.

This game is not a simulator nor a retro port, it's a totally original pinball extravaganza, taking the core principles of pinball to a new level. Multiple flippers, rebounds, stallballs, boosts, bonus, freeballs and tilt are all present taking the full advantage of the iPod Touch/iPhones power.

Beautifully animated and presented graphics together with wonderfully crazy sound effects. A sensational 60 frames per second physics engine make it the smoothest pinball game yet. Monster Pinball is a long overdue breath of fresh helium filled air to the pinball world!
