The Man Who Voices Rod Serling Also Screams "BOOMSHAKALAKA"
This week's review is Bally's Twilight Zone — the most complicated pinball machine ever built.
Jul 9

Every Thursday, I review one machine: its history, designers, mechanics, and how it actually plays. From 70s electromechanical classics and solid-state legends to 90s DMD favorites and ultra-modern Stern or Jersey Jack pins — if it has flippers, it's fair game. Every machine faces the FlipScore: a rigorous 100-point rubric covering Shots, Code & Depth, Theme, Build Quality, and Resale Value. Real history, live gameplay, and an honest verdict. No filler. Whether you grew up sinking quarters into arcades, you're a collector chasing a grail, or an international fan of classic flipperspel, you'll fit right in here. 🔔 New review every Thursday.
