Demon's Tilt

With its single table, often obtuse mechanics and sometimes brutal difficulty, Demon's Tilt isn't going to be to everybody's tastes, but if you have even the slightest interest in pinball games then you really should check this out.

But if you’re willing to engage with the game as intended — by gradually developing your skills over time, and being rewarded by watching your scores climb the leaderboards day by day — then this is an absolutely wonderful game to add to your collection. Bonus points if you have a Flip Grip for Nintendo Switch and can enjoy it as the dark Gods intended, in vertical “tate” mode.

After playing Demon's Tilt for a while, I wanted to dive back into the 1990 classic Devil's Crush. Although this is a very well-done experience, it doesn't quite live up to the classics that Compile created decades prior.

Pinball is absolutely a cornerstone of retro gaming so I'm always excited to see what people come up with to celebrate it...
