summary:
An "erotic" pinsim with 3 nice made 3D tables.
The physics are more or less ok, but you don´t get
a decent game.
The slingshots are real killers!

physics quite good but the ball jumps a bit too much. When shooting from the flippers, the ball lacks speed, when hitting the ball in motion, the ballspeed explodes you don´t see him for a second. 25 25 25
graphics quite nice 7 8 7
difficulty the ball is shot down the outlanes very fast, so you don´t get much of the tasks to play.
Car Wash: Some of the ramps can be shot up only by luck.
Moulin Rouge: The leader of the ballkillers but most interesting one. Got a bug at the left slingshot (ball gets stuck).

fun Could be fun if a ball would last longer and the tables wouldn´t be so similar in counting and playing. The simple tasks are repeated on and on without real reward. 10 14 12
layout / gameplay interesting but rather similar tables 6 8 7
specials Tasks, that are almost not to start. MB´s

tilt/nudging tilts late, the effect is moderate 2 2 2
comments The counting is rather moderate. The tables are alike in counting and how to reach the tasks (that are almost unreachable). Not very imaginative! What there might be "erotic" I can`t say or couldn´t play these killers good enough. But wouldn´it distract one from playing?
