Sizing up the Ant-Man Table from @zen_studios

15/7/2015

A year or two ago most people would have looked at this table and "thought who is that?" 
Admittedly the vast majority will still think in this way, but after this week with the new addition to the Marvel Cinematic universe those questions should be answered. This gives this table a very handy increase in public awareness and shows that synchronous releases are a ingenious step fro Zen.

So far I have put a decent amount of time into the table (though this number will rise considerably in the coming weeks) and its fair to say it is a fun ride as you would expect. It feels very reminiscent of the Darth Vader table in terms of aesthetic though it plays faster and has some great bonus missions. My particular favourite is the Particle Ball that acts like a pendulum to give you bonus points every time you hit, the real joy of it hough is when it releases to start a multiball. The trick with it is to make sure you return it home for a nice score bonus when you are done. 
My one concern is the underfoot bonus mission, as is common now you get to play a smaller secondary table but with my table perspective (view 4) it feels unplayable. Now maybe this is just my ineptitude but I will keep playing to find out.

Overall this is a nice addition to the Zen Pinball Roster and should be getting some rather high scores in the coming weeks I'm sure.

    What this is

    The random chat is changing a little to be just as the title says. This is going to function as my place to chat about things that can come from anywhere, from TV to films to Sport to gaming. Most things are up for discussion even though I will avoid the key no no's like Religion, Politics and Macro Economics (Micro economics of the gaming/comics world though is still fair game) and of course the biggie whether the Spice Girls were the greatest musical group of all time or not. I hope to bring a taste of something different in these posts and please feel free to comment where you see fit.
