The aim of the game is simple, play some pinball and try not to get annoyed by how terrible it is. The ball never quite feels like it is on the table, which leads to it floating around at a fairly mundane pace and not behaving itself. Everything about this title is half-arsed and vaguely pointless. It looks like a budget PC game, it plays like a budget PC game and it sounds like a budget PC game. We'd like to say it is deliberately trying to be kitsch and stylish by being ugly and cumbersome, but it is just plain ugly. Neon lighting, fake breasts and cheesy pseudo-gothic elements plague this title from start to finish. The tables themselves are dull and painfully slow to play and lack any sort of invention outside the overly camp 1980s themes. We didn't think you could get the idea of pinball wrong, but somehow this game does it. Whilst we enjoy a bit of pinballing as much as the next man, woman or armadillo we can't help but think that something has gone oh so very wrong with Dream Pinball. The game is split into a number of tables, but not a great number.
