Farsight Studios, an independent video game company (known for Pinball Arcade) whose been making multi-platform games for over 25 years posted in their newsletter they’re releasing a stand-alone GHOSTBUSTERS™ Pinball table app. Who saw this coming? :O
Making a Stand-Alone Ghostbusters Table App.
We started building the table with the basic layout of the appropriately themed Haunted House™. As we continued development, and since this is our first table released that isn’t a simulation of a real world classic, we feel like it deserves even more than being featured in the Pinball Arcade collection.
What Ghostbusters Content Can Ghostheads Expect?
The table is based on the hit movie released in 1984 and its sequel. This game puts you in control of the Ghostbusters crew, featuring Egon, Peter, Ray and Winston, as they battle paranormal foes in New York City. The Playfield is divided into three levels representing iconic settings from the movies: the city, rooftop and subway. Use eight flippers to move the ball through the three levels by shooting up and down ramps, tubes and a manhole as you build up a huge Ghost Bonus. Raise the Slimer Pop Bumper to reveal a ball lock for Multi-Ball and then cross the streams on the roof to destroy the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man!
How Much Will It Cost?
Our Ghostbusters themed table will be free to download and free to play. Tokens are needed for each game, but you get 10 to start with and you earn at least one token each day. People with the Pinball Arcade installed earn two tokens per day!
Is Farsight Studios Proud Of Ghostbusters Pinball?
We’re proud of how it turned out. Our hope is that people enjoy it and that this type of stand-alone app will introduce fans of Ghostbusters to pinball and to the Pinball Arcade.
Ghostbusters Pinball App should be available for both iOS and Android by the end of October.
