The graphics of the game are generally considered lackluster and fail to compete with more vibrant and polished pinball titles available on Steam. While the user interface is user-friendly and offers customizable graphic options, the overall visual quality and animations are seen as disappointing compared to other popular pinball games. Reviewers express that the graphics do not meet the expectations set by recent releases in the genre, making the game feel inferior.
“The game has a user-friendly UI and plenty of user-defined graphic options that the average Steam PC user has come to expect and will appreciate their inclusion here.”
“I may write separate reviews for the other two sets (Hot Pinball and Soccer Pinball Thrills), but if I do, I doubt they won't be that different from this one because they use the same basic targets, the same ramps, the same bumpers, etc. The main difference is the artwork and slight changes to the look of the tables.”
“The graphics are so-so and lack the vibrancy that we have become accustomed to with the recent additions to the Steam library of Pinball FX, Pinball Arcade, Pinball Parlour, and Zaccaria Pinball, all of which are fantastic sets of pinball games and exciting to play.”
“Right from the outset, I knew I was going to be disappointed; the graphics were lackluster, and the inability to control the initial ball strength, with its 'all or nothing' response from the ball plunger, immediately put me off the game.”
“The graphics are so-so and lack the vibrancy that we have become accustomed to with the recent additions to the Steam library of Pinball FX, Pinball Arcade, Pinball Parlour, and Zaccaria Pinball, all of which are fantastic sets of pinball games and exciting to play. Most of them have loads of hidden extras, brilliant animations, and loads of other features. The best of those mentioned even give you the first table for free, and those free tables are far superior to any of the ones included in this set and, more importantly, are worth every penny.”

The music in the game is widely regarded as irritating, with poor voice acting that detracts from the overall experience, leading players to often mute the sound.
“The music is truly irritating, and the voice acting, what little there is of it, is so bad that I turn the sound way down whenever I suffer from memory loss and have forgotten how bad it truly is and start playing it again.”
