  First of all, i have all the pinball games made so far for VR. I've been playing Pinball FX2 VR and also have Zaccaria Pinball. I've just bought this, played and boom! Physics are extremely real, true to real kind! Graphics are all good. Ambient is cool but only one thing, just some more tables please!

  WOW! This is amazing! The physics are spot on. THe graphics and the atmosphere are stunning. It feels real and totally immersive. I really like the design of the machine and I'd love to see more. Honestly, I've spent far more on real pinball machines that were not half as good. Well worth the price. Looking forward to see what comes next.

  Despite the cheap price, this is a quality game. Screenshots could be misleading because you're into a full darkness: the pinball is the only light avaliable and lightning has a role in the whole experience. From the VR side, scale is perfect and everything is smooth and detailed (it's Unreal based) with a good use of handtracking. It looks just as a real pinball in front of you. I would love to be able to use coins from my pocket instead pressing a button, and some tilt gestures to punch/pull the table as well. I'm confident we'll see something in next updates. From the game side, pinball simulations today are almost lifelike and this one is just as good. Only one table here, I suppose the game don't want run after Zaccaria and FX2 on expansions, staying in a different price range.

  WoW - I have been waiiting for this to come out. Reminds me of Zen a little bit. Great sense of presence in VR. Love the fact that I can use my touch controllers. Great price BTW - Would definitely buy more from them...

  Better now that you can complete the orbits, though it seems a little odd that you can, with the ramps inclines being so steep. Seems like the ball must get a dark matter assist to make it through. The table is a little sparse but it's infinitely more playable now. I like it. Try Zaccarria Pinball in VR, especially the remake tables and Pinball FX2. If you like this, you'll love those.

  Pretty damn amazing stuff! Certainly got the wow factor when it first fired up. Was far better than I expected. Ball physics is impressive and table design is pretty damn good too. I was actually having fun on it. It does need an environment to sit in, but I realise it's WIP so that's cool. When your ready, i'm cool with that. One thing I did notice that would be greatly beneficial would be some sort of haptic feedback for the flipper buttons. That's one thing that virtual experiences can't help you with... that sense of touch. So unless your gonna go to the trouble of putting a long box or something to use as a place holder, then haptic is the way to go. Love the game and performance was really great and details was so good close up. Well worth picking up!

  A great pinball that fills the gap between the extreme vintage of Zaccaria Pinball and the exaggerated special effects of Pinball FX2

  I really didnt like this. I'm a tall guy - 6foot6 - the table was too low for me to play it. (and no way I could see to adjust it). I didnt like the table either. Or the lighting. Part of the pleasure of playing pinball, is the physical interaction. After trying this, I'm not convinced that can be re-created in VR.

  I am updating my review posted Aug 2017. 5 out of 5 Stars. My user on Pinball Evolution is TW Pro's This game is great. First off you can sit down and rest your hands however your want because the only functions are to activate flippers and the plunger. Specific hand placement is not needed It is extemely realistic the physics are spot on. The developers are responsive to comments by players. The sound and visual effects are perfect for the style of table. The real improvment over actual pinball are the effects on the balls, changing colors, on fire etc. It is great game to introduce new players to the world of VR There are no motion sickness triggers that many games cause due to the players not being used to the visual aspects. Con's (These have nothing to do with game play and would not stop me from playing) Between plays the scoring sytem could go faster. A graphic running from 0 to your score on that turn plays followed by a multiplier (x2 x3) that is added after the intial graphic. The higher the score the longer it takes. Then it adds that to your total score. I think the first part where the score runs up from 0 to your score should just show your actual score on the turn followed by the multiplier. The other thing and its just a small annoyance, If you did not achieve the 2X multiplier or highter is shows a graphic that says ( x0, when it should be x1 The music played during the score add up should be darker or demons laughing, breathing. There is nothing in the game play itself that I don't like. For the price you can't beat it. Would be cool to see some classic pinball tables but I am sure licensing is too expensive. If they keep making games of this caliber there is no need to copy older games. In the digital world the possibilities are endless and I look forward to what these developers will come up with next.

  A nice alternative to Pinball FX2 VR. The following pros and cons are in comparison to that product. Pros: Support for Oculus touch controllers. Ability to change table height and rotation relative to your viewpoint (makes it more comfortable to play sitting down). Less expensive. Cons: Only one table, however, this game is still in early access.

  The physics here are good, and this is the best implementation of Touch controllers for pinball I've seen yet in VR. The core problem is that the pinball table itself just isn't that fun. It's like a beautiful driving simulator where the only car you can drive is a 1992 Hyundai Excel. It's pinball, yes, but no light show, no meaningful audio (music only in multiball mode), and no attempt to tell a story via pinball. If you've ever been to a pinball event, the people love tables like Addam's Family not just because it's a well-designed table but because the audio call outs are fun and mix with the different events. This feels more like pinball from the 1980s. While I wasn't expecting (and don't want) something as far to the "video game pinball" as Pinball FX creates, this is just too sparse and gets boring quickly.

  It is a nice game for a nice price. It looks very polished and the physics feel accurate. So I had some short fun with it. Being an avid pinball player I find this table a bit boring, though. I must also confess that I have not found any VR pinball table that has really captured my interest. Maybe I miss the 'feel' of the real table too much to get excited about a virtual table. One point the table could certainly improve; I find the flippers a little bit 'soggy'. I miss the 'punch' in them. Which could also be explained as a 'natural' feeling as some real world tables have that quality to them. However, I favor the ones with a strong punch. :)

  My ball got stuck and I had to restart twice in 10 minutes of gameplay, an unforgivable sin for a pinball game. The lighting is stellar though. I've refunded, but will wishlist and IF it gets better in future I might rebuy.

  Regretfully, though I mostly enjoyed this otherwise fine Pinball Evlution VR table, the ball repeatedly became stuck in the same location in over half the games. And even worse, no response from developers. Refunded (for now.) Thank you.

  Great game. I loved pinball as a youngster and this reminds me of the real thing. One issue: PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE SCOEBOARD - IT IS TOO SLOW AND LOOKS CHEAP. Why not use the old tumbler scoreboard system and speed up the bonus addition part, especially between balls.

  The graphics are very clear. The controls are good. This game would just need better playfield art and optimized physics and then you got a great game. You should give it a try if you're into Pinball. (Played with HTC Vive Cosmos)

  Pinball Evolution V R i had to buy this and i'm glad i did. its a beautifully crafted table and the ambience in the room is perfect. the physics are great, as are the graphics, but i wondered what it would be like if you could increase the slope on the table to your preferred setting. it feels a little slow at first untill you get a multiball. played on macbook pro 16 2019 w\bootcamp oculus quest + link. performance is very smooth bottom line for me it is very addictive and a great table to be immersed in. 5\5 i can highly recommend this to anyone that loves pinball

  As with every one of these pinball VR titles, the controls do not work right with the HP Reverb G2!
