I'd already been familiar with the Android shareware demo, so I was super excited to get net tables. I actually picked up Epic Pinball piece by piece, back around 1995-ish, Blockbuster video had a promotion one summer where everytime you rented 2 movies or games at the same time, they would give you a boxed "PC game." Turns out these boxes were actually individual epic pinball tables, if you kept reinstalling them into the same directory, it would fill out into a full copy of Epic Pinball. There are many objectives to accomplish, but even once you can run the table, it's just so much fun to keep playing and racking up points. What kept me coming back is how well laid out the table is. It's one of the more easy video pinball games I've ever played. These weird physics can actually be more fun, IMO, and space cadet pinball has some super video gamey physics. I actually like video pinball more than real pinball, the physics of video pinball games isn't at all like real world physics and thus can be bent or broken as the game deems fit. I'd always liked pinball, going way back to playing real pinball tables in the late 80's and early 90's. This is technically only a demo for a larger game - Maxis' Full Tilt Pinball, but this single table has no real restrictions and can be played infinitely. back then, you had to pay for them!), and I played the shit out of this on my computer. We got Plus 95 the moment it was released (for those too young, the Plus packs were the precursor to the Microsoft service packs. It first was bundled with Microsoft Plus 95, then came built into Windows 98.
