[Murlockingqc]

LOL'ED @ 5:30! :D No luck hehe!

[critanime]

i love this table. The music is just awesome and it plays well.

[Veke99]

Check out my video of getting 1.2 billion points on this table :)

[williamkalfelz]

I loved those music. You could listen to them in any MOD player, as they were just MOD files. :-)

[markocar00]

OLD SCHOOL

[TheBestOfDisco]

this song is awesome! still stuck in my mind

[pianoman74]

You've already played better ones. You did not highlight ANY of the ghosts in the center, thus taking all the fun out :)

[Pioneer833]

Oh yes! I played this game all day long! Those were the days!

[Viplexify]

With hold bonus over >3 balls you could make hundreds of billions of points. I got bored at about 300 000 000 000.

[m82artin]

I played this alot back in the day, this was the board i reached the highest score at, 7-800 millions or so. Activate the ghost was the most fun tho, that and trying to get the bonusmultiplier as many times as possible

[bocianowaty]

the best table ever ! ! !

[MegaCurry69]

how do i download this game for free

[Veke99]

@MegaCurry69 I'm pretty sure you can download the Dos version at an abandonware site such as Abandonia.

[rutgerjaap]

@2:59 lol!

[pyogenic]

My fav computer pinball table ever. Logged so many hours :)

Love the ominous music

[TonnyCorelli]

Look at my horse, my horse is amazing...

[Kuula10]

I think this is hardest level i still play this with my Amiga 500 sometimes

[Scymczak]

44,757,345,572,500 is crazy, I played it for three hours and did over 136,000,000,000

[critanime]

Loved the music on the table. Was always my fav to play.

[ZhardeMad]

Dieser Tisch war, neben dem Partylandtisch in Pinball Fantasies, einfach gelungen und sorgte alleine schon wegen der Aufmachung und den tollen Sounds für Vorfreude.

Der Tisch ist auch für Einstiger gut geeignet, aber dennoch konnte man sich tief in die Katakomben spielen sozusagen und somit kamen Profis nicht zu kurz.

Insgesamt nur ganz knapp hinter dem Partylandtisch, aber wirklich hauchdünn^^

[ferdievanassche]

Brilliant music and sound effects !

[RonsonDenmark]

<3 50 fps

[MsRetrofuture]

Yes , greatest pinball game ever...

[Dominik0366]

i founded in wikipedia, highest record at stones n' bones was 44,757,345,572,500 points!

[Romuluzz]

One of my favourite tables when I was a kid :)

This game was so addicting that every time I was on computer, I usually popped this one in and played many hours straight, alongside Blues Brothers ;)

[MaxRideWizardLord]

I do in this pinball only fucking 99.675.890 points >:( I don't get more only because some fucking glitch happend and my ball stuck in the right way, then it just go down D: D: D: D: SHIT IT WAS NEAR 100 miilions!

[holdmyballsforasec]

This game was the benchmark for pinball video games back in the day.

[Cnith]

Type "Earthquake" in the levels to remove the tilt danger.

This is one of my all time favourite games. I still enjoy playing it from time to time. Stones N Bones is probably my favourite level, since it's fairly easy to get a ton of points (can't hit the damn tower when I need to though).

[quadrupleplay]

0:15 to 0:17: I like that strategy. Just hold the right flipper up after a Scream and you can keep shooting them. That's actually one of the first things you should do: pick up the 10 Screams for the extra ball. But you're smart...you got that figured out. (3:47 :D)

0:45 = Another unexplained noise?

You can shoot. Those STONE-BONE targets get knocked out quite quick. Usually I'm busy trying to get other things instead...:P

[Gravedig00]

@quadrupleplay

0:45 - unexplained noise? Well he's using tilt for prevention for the ball not going down the drain... That's kind of player who keeps ball's destiny in his hands...

[quadrupleplay]

@Gravedig00: Meaning it's a tilt warning?

I can't tell because it's not shown anywhere on the display, and the noise isn't familiar because I simply haven't run into this too often even with such experience as mine.

Since you can only nudge upwards in this game, nudging won't be as frequent as to trigger a warning.

[Gravedig00]

@quadrupleplay

Yes, it's a tilt warning...

Well, it's useful and it's not so sensitive if you use it once in 5 seconds...

[quadrupleplay]

This one definitely isn't easy, but it's the most rewarding and overall funnest: it scores huge when you play huge. I've seen 44T scores in some places! I still haven't gone that long and only have 10,139,256,380. If I could only get back...

By the way, everyone, I've reworked Erik Mooney's original rulesheet for this game into my own experiences and discoveries, giving credit where it's due. I could send it around if anyone wants it. (Duplicating this for other readers.)

[Cardamar]

@FolkeFolkmord: thanks a lot, I am actually playing this right now, but I'm not at good as I used to be hehe... Practising a little bit now.

@chrcoluk: I agree this is not an easy table, but these scores really are possible. I used to play this game with my dad a lot, scores above 300 million were pretty common. With 5 balls that is, and I didn't even know there were cheats for this game.

[chrcoluk]

to be honest until I see someone post a vid I dont believe them, pinball fantasies isnt an easy game, with the 5 ball cheat I can maybe get 100 mill in a good game. is also made easier with the glitch where play with multiple players the bonus at start is higher than it supposed to be eg. if both player 1 and 2 get it on first ball then player 2 gets 2 mill instead of 1 million. With 5x8 balls by the time you get to ball 40 this glitch is worth a lot of millions.

[Cardamar]

Oh my god :) I almost forgot about this game until I found this video! This was my favorite table, and I once got over 1 billion points. It was soooo addictive!

Too bad I can't get this running in Windows nowadays... Would love to do another attempt on that! Thanks for sharing!

[FolkeFolkmord]

@Cardamar I got the game to work on DOSBox. Try a google search for it.

[kickyourass777]

Don't waste your money buying this game... go and buy PINBALL HEROES for PSP.. the tables are based on popular Sony games like Uncharted, HotShots golf, pain etc.. Pretty soon they will have 3 Motorstorm tables and GOd of War... buy those instead..

[alphamone]

this has to be one of if not my most favourite computer pinball table. (with enigma from epic pinball close behind)

[1642wlmi]

oh my god...this game it's awesome. remember when i play with 486 dx-2 66 :) now i play with my X3 processor and 4 me it s a best game ever made.

about tower hunt: it's very hard enter when countdown go to the 0 :)

[nervm]

Good times they played P.F. at 486. : )

[q2rlz]

This was my favourite table :) Spooky and chilly music :)

[ladulaser]

Oh I remember this from 15 years ago. I got 450M on this table, which was my favorite. I used to work mostly on "activating" those ghosts seen in the background of the main part of the board. I can't even remember what Grim Reaper gave you, just that I managed to activate it only 4-5 times during the 1-2 years I played.

[Rattlesnake2002]

My best Score on the best Pinballgame ever: 256.857.590 Million

I love this game and this Table!!!

[Lemmingology]

By the way, random tip for people - best way to get a high score is to spam the scream ramp until you get the extra ball then concentrate on the ghosts, hope you get as far as Ghost Hunt (the fifth one), hit the Tower twice = 62.5 million instantly :)

[Lemmingology]

I really wish this video recording stuff had been around when I clocked 353 mil on this table glitch-free. If I ever dig my Amiga out again I'll screenie it and put it up somewhere. Although I've just managed to get my emulator working properly after ages of trying and got 150 mil on my first try ^_^ hopefully with a bit of practise I'll be able to get back up to 300+

[SimSmall]

I thought I'd done really well with a 200 million points high score. Then I read some of the comments here.

But it looks weird to me to see the text go on the top. Also, the DOS version I have plays at some strange resolution like 640x350, which is 16:8.75? I didn't know we had widescreen monitors in those days! And now we've moved to 16:9 and 16:10...

[AnonYmous17]

my high score on this table is 127138770

[DrBranDo]

getting high bonus and holding it to next round and lastly hit the multiply 9 bonus with the next ball.

[DrBranDo]

great great game indeed. Best pinball ever. Just played now and for once managed to perform decent score in table 2.

T2: 432 Million

T4: 518 Million

Cheers.

[AnonYmous17]

whats your secret, getting such a high score in table 2? that one just hates me!

[Kosmiker]

BEST PINBALL TABLE EVER!!

In matter of fact, this is the only game I still have installed on my old 486..

[ilaludba]

How is it possible that all of these Amiga games had such good music, were they always written by the same people?

[RonTaboga]

No, the technical limitation of the 4 Channel Amiga Sound just inspired all the creativity in those people. Nowadays they can make everything within a push of 2-3 Buttons, so the creativity is suffering.

[Veke99]

Ahh the memories. as a kid after a lot of practice, I got the top score on this table. I was so proud to win my brothers in it :P

[Veke99]

that was also the first time I got the grim reaper I think

[MackMarvel]

I like the music and sound effects of this table.

[nund]

My Hi-Scores (5 balls):

Party Land: 2.600 million

Speed Devils: 1.600 million

Billion Dollar: 1.200 million

Stones N Bones: 87.000 million

The best game ever!!

[jfunf]

I knew a guy who made 600.000.000 on table 4. and it was just in front of me

[strambo80]

My best score are 1.000 million.

I love this game. :-)

[malu5531]

Greatest pinball game ever and this is the greatest table! :P Lots of nice memories!

My best was around 1500 million! :) The key to getting these insane scores are to use hold bonus + multiply bonus many balls in a row. Most of the score in a 1500 million game is pure bonus.

[MegaCurry69]

@malu5531  how can i download this games for free.

[ShadowSpark220]

@malu5531 Really? Mine was about less than a third of that (some 400 million points being my best, if I can recall).

[Rushsero]

I played this game actually 10 min ago and got 234 million (2 player game, played vs my dad). My top score is 335 million~ played on a solo player game.

ya, kinda an addict :P

[chrcoluk]

best table of pinball fantasies, that high score music kicks ass. My best score is about 330 million and achieved helped by the bonus score glitch. (different player bonuses add to each other so easier to get high scores in 8 player games).

[metaloenformol]

My fav table too! my best score was like 1400 Million

[japespy]

i got about 300 million not bad ^^

[shooermagooer]

ahhh the memories!!

[MiCr69p]

Seems like yesterday .. but an eternity ago .. I love this old one. The music made me scared o_0 Played it up to the Millenium - then our old PC (50 MHz^^) was given away .. so sad.

Don't remember my topscores - but I know I had fun!

[Fixxxer]

I used to make about 1600 million in that table. Love this game. <3

[birkzzz]

I got 274 000 000 on this table -5 balls...

Pretty proud about it. ^^

Think i made about 60millions on the towerhuntbonus that game...

[Sodowar]

Amazing game granted with one of the finest amiga soundtrack ever...

[Inspiration9991]

Thank you for a blast of the past. I used to love this table.

[freqrexy]

I have the Game Boy version of this but it brings back memories indeed :D Nice run through too!

[quinquiunica]

OMG! I can't believe you upload this!! O_O This game was our favorite game for a long season when we were younger! My boyfriend and me played this game for hours, each one of us took a side and pressed the flippers ^_^ (in pc, keyboard). We reached up 500 millions some day ^^... This table was our favorite too ^^. I remember I even recorded this music in a mini-tape-recorder xD hahaha! Thanks for sharing ^^

[Gravedig00]

The best music is when grim reaper is activated! :D

[bahhumbugzze]

my favourite tabel from my favourite classic pinball game \o/
