Revenge of the Rob-O-Bot, one of the very best pinball tables in the App Store, has just been discounted to $0.99. It was a steal at $2.99. At this price its a no-brainer. See the forum threads at TouchArcade and at Pinball Arcade Fans to see what Im talking about. Its getting universal acclaim. Or check out the games website. You might not know Color Monkey yet, but youre probably familiar with developer [member=4379]Anders[/member] old company: Illusion Labs. His work here is just as good, and this table is better than a lot of the tables that are coming out of Zen and Farsight. So do yourself a favor and check it out. This app deserves to succeed. We need more tables from these guys.

"Among the best in this genre" – IREVIEWT RATING 4.5 "If you like realistic pinball games, you will inevitably have to get Revenge of the Rob-O-Bot" - APP GEMEINDE The Intergalactical Rob-O-Bot has invaded Femtopia and is laying waste to this once peaceful city of the future. No-one knows why or where he comes from. It’s not important. Just help Bazooka Commandrix Betty to save the metropolis from destruction! ...But beware, the Rob-O-Bot is programmed for REVENGE!! - Fast-paced gameplay and realistic physics - 5 challenging missions to roll through - Fantastic visuals and glistering light shows - Great retro display animations - Up to 5 balls multiball - 10 evil Rob-O-Bots to defeat - Tons of combos, bonuses and multipliers - Tilt with style, be be careful not to overdo it - Game center leader boards and achievement Designed by Color Monkey, powered by Nena. How to play There is no “one way” to play a pinball game. Most things give you points and points are what you are trying to get. Shoot the ramps and hit everything that blinks, especially blinking arrows. Combos are the best and so are jackpots. And don’t forget to increase your bonus ‘cause that will certainly give you a lot more points in the end. Your main goal is to defeat the evil Rob-O-Bot and you do that by completing all the missions. There are five of them and you start them by entering the Mission controll. If you are not in a mission, the mission control is always opened. Hit it, and follow the instructions. Good luck! Tips - Use one flipper at the time - After you've flipped, drop the flipper back down immediately - In general, don't flip any more than you need to - Push the device upwards to tilt - Watch and listen to the game while you play to learn the rules Information Seller: Genre:Arcade, Simulation Release:Nov 16, 2012 Updated:Nov 30, -0001 Version: Size:0.0 TouchArcade Rating:Unrated User Rating: (17) Your Rating:unrated Compatibility:HD Universal Teaser Trailer Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel Launch Trailer Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel Gameplay Video Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel metalcasket Moderator Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze May 24, 2010 11,064 1,340 113 Deepest Circle, Hel #2 metalcasket, Nov 23, 2012 Last edited: Nov 23, 2012 Damn, it's always sad seeing a fantastic app goes on sale so soon. The App Store can be brutal sometimes. :/ I was pretty much on the fence about getting this a couple of days ago because I'm not too "in sync" with realistic pinball games, but I guess there's absolutely no reason for me not to support the developers now. Really looking forward to it. EDIT: Alright, the second you start playing, you start to understand why the folk in the main game thread are gushing all over Rob-O-Bot. It's fantastic. I may still have the faintest clue about pinball in general, or how to complete missions, etc...but this makes me want to know more. It's gorgeous, feels great and is just such a well-rounded off package. This is legitimately theft at this price. Oh...and how is awesome is that icon? september Well-Known Member Sep 14, 2012 2,673 0 0 #3 september, Nov 23, 2012 I missed this totally, it's been very well done. Nicely designed, beautifully rendered, will support next table app for sure. krautboy Well-Known Member Apr 20, 2011 476 0 16 #4 krautboy, Nov 23, 2012 I bought it yesterday at full price and this is one of the rare moments i'm totally fine with a price drop so soon. At this moment i only see 139 players in GC and ofcourse i don't know how much people are actually playing but that can't be very good. This is one of the best pinball tables in the app store,if not the best and it would be a real shame if bad sales would prevent them from giving us more tables. Go download,it's awesome! AnarKitty Well-Known Member Oct 10, 2010 3,654 0 0 Minneapolis, USA #5 AnarKitty, Nov 23, 2012 Almost shockingly good. An absolute must-get for anyone who even slightly likes pinball, and just a great iOS game app. metalcasket Moderator Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze May 24, 2010 11,064 1,340 113 Deepest Circle, Hel #6 metalcasket, Nov 23, 2012 I see you quoted me before I managed to fix my silly typo about not supporting the developers (should have been "no reason not to support the developers"), but yeah...this is also one of those rare moments I legitimately wish I bought this earlier at $2.99. The game's just a pleasure to play and I'm "getting it" (finally)...it's definitely hard, but it's also really hard to put down. Safe to say I hope they keep making more tables, because I'll be buying every single one from here on out.

Im getting this but it sad that a surely fine pinball table as gone unnoticed till now. Ill post impressions when I have a chance to play but at a buck and having played all of their other tables I can safely say that every ios pinball fan should just trust NI quality and throw their bucks at them. edit: played a couple of games and liked it, it has more polish than their other tables but one thing is lacking is camera options. i play pinball on my ipad always and prefer a static camera view but NI tables dont give this option so you have to play with the dynamic camera which isnt really my cup of tea. Its not a deal breaker by any means but as a personal preference its something that would greatly increase my enojyment from all their tables. tops2 Well-Known Member Jan 21, 2011 2,064 42 48 #8 tops2, Nov 24, 2012 Excellent game. I'm not a big pinball person, and I tend to prefer video game like pinball games to realistic ones...but I'm really liking this game so far. amusing Grace Well-Known Member Dec 23, 2008 1,682 7 38 Music, Muse, Magick Berlin, Germany #9 amusing Grace, Nov 24, 2012 Last edited: Nov 24, 2012 Same here.

LOVE virtual pinball, never so much real pinball (always lost my balls fairly quickly, not to mention pinball, at my age, usually cost more to play than arcade machines). I do love real pinball machine simulations (as well as fantasy tables). I think the last table I lasted more than 2 minutes at in real life was Elvira. ooba Member Jan 14, 2012 10 0 0 #11 ooba, Nov 25, 2012 Trying this now although I'm not a big pinball fan. I'll post my thoughts as soon as I have a few games under my belt. xraydash Well-Known Member Jan 15, 2012 58 0 0 #12 xraydash, Nov 25, 2012 I've lost a couple hours in this since getting it yesterday. Great stuff! I'm not very good but it's still a lot of fun trying to beat my previous high scores. Definitely one of those "just one more..." sort of games. ooba Member Jan 14, 2012 10 0 0 #13 ooba, Nov 27, 2012 The game plays great - smooth controls. For a casual pinball player like me, the table play was easy to understand. Overall, I'm happy I got the game and it is my current my go-to-app when I have a few minutes to kill.
