Summary

The Classic Pinball Podcast reviews Bally KISS (1979) with gameplay walkthrough and design history.

George and Dave discuss Bally's 1978/1979 KISS pinball machine, covering its design by Jim Patla, artwork by Kevin O'Connor, gameplay mechanics centered on spelling KISS multiple times to light bonuses, and the machine's technological limitations that prevented it from becoming the talking/music-heavy showcase Gene Simmons wanted. They play several games and note the machine is a solid B+ game that's relatively uncommon to find despite 17,000 units produced.

From the creator

Dave was finally able to sell this game after Georges endless hawking in previous episodes. He starts to experience some sellers remorse. Please join us for another Classic pinball play and review.
