Dream Pinball 3D (PC Games)

There are six different style balls, made of different materials, that not only look different, but whose ballistic characteristics will affect the very rolling behaviour of each one of them. Add to that incredible acoustics, state of the art particle technology, HDRI and multilayer 3D sound, and realistic tilt function and motion blur effects. [SouthPeak Interactive]

Critic Reviews

79 PC Format
If you get it, just make sure you turn those graphics down. [June 2008, p.110]
77 PC Gamer UK
A high score-chasing game that scores well with us all. [July 2008, p.83]
70 PC Zone UK
With more ambition in the table design, Dream Pinball 3D has the potential to be great. As it stands, it's just good. [June 2008, p.82]
51 IGN
Dream Pinball 3D fails at reproducing realistic physics, rendering it pretty much useless. Even if the player was given a sense of the weight of the ball and the flippers reacted like they should, you'd still have some pretty generic tables.
38 PC Gamer
Look elsewhere. [July 2008, p.63]
