  • Extra Balls (5 per game)

    I believe all the tables have the new rule of "5 Extra Balls per Game", instead of the 'per ball limit' that was on some previous tables, ie, 2 extra balls per regular ball. Thoughts?

    I personally like the change. Ghost Rider, Wolverine and Paranormal benefit from it, because you can no longer have those really long games that could last for a few days (using the save feature).

    At the same time, it's easier for me to grab all of the extra balls with one ball now. This is great because in the past if you had a bad ball, you would miss the opportunity to grab two extra balls.

      I'm a big fan as well of the new 5 extra ball limit. I do much better to get all the extra balls than having to get the final two with your third ball when you feel under pressure. In my opinion you need to have to work to get extra balls unlike e.g. Plants vs Zombies. Ironman on the other hand is too difficult to get an extra ball on.

        Oh? Interesting. I was wondering because paranormal is another table that can be a marathon getting 5 extra balls per ball. I remember long marathons with Paranormal doing that which I why I don't play that table anymore. Too long.


        What a nice change.

          Totally agree tenorhero, Paranormal was ruined for me by the easy extra balls. Great table to play but I didn't like the loooooong games personally. I didn't know about the new rules, thanks caper.

            I think it's really nice as well. Agree with all on Paranormal. You can still only acquire 2 per ball though, correct?

              No! It's five EBs per game. You can acquire all of them with the first ball.
