The best of the 90’s fan layout BW games by far. Tremendous flow, great rules / code, hilarious callouts / animations. This is the magic of pinball on full display and a true world under glass. That being said... There are limitations of what 90’s classics can offer standing up against modern pins mainly in the realm of code, sound, animations, depth of rules. MM wins on charm but I can see EHOH, being a similarly styled game to MM eventually surpassing it as the goat.

This is one of the most fun machines out there and no matter how much I play, still keeps me coming back for more. In some aspects, this is the best game out there. But in other categories, especially in the light of much newer games, it is absolutely not even close to the top. Overall, still one of the best packages in a machine and a highly recommended machine to own or even just play.

I'm sure if you spend time on this game it will really kick butt! Very fun right off the bat but didn't get too much out of it. Definitely fun and the theme was great. Monty Python is obviously the target here and it really is great all the way around. The sound is eh, mediocre. The lighting on the one I played was dim. The animations are average/decent. But the game is definitely cool and fun.
Update :. Played a brilliant example and it's a masterpiece. Games that are well maintained really make the experience so much better. Ramos on this are some of the best. The castle, the lock mech, catapult, the trolls.
The callouts are amusing, even if they don't help in gameplay that much.

This game is great. I can remember the first few times playing this in the local movie theater. Always lots of fun. I dont fully understand all of the aspects of the artwork. Honestly I love the shots although they seem to get bit repetitive.

All time classic that draws a crowd. The trolls, drawbridge, portcullis and exploding castle have got to be the best pinball toys. Brilliantly themed, with fun call outs and awesome artwork - the translite, PF and cabinet artwork are the complete package.

Enough has been said about Medieval Madness over the years, but it's my favorite all-around table -- one of the few I'll play every time wherever I find it. This game nails its theme and does so in a fun, creative, and humorous way that never seems to get old. It's the highest on my wishlist and my answer to the desert island scenario "if you could only have one" question. I'm sure the theme isn't for everyone, but I'm not sure I want to meet the person that can't have fun playing this machine.

Perfect world under glass with an all time great theme. Awesome call outs. Rules are deep enough to keep you coming back for a long time, wizard mode is tough but feels possible to achieve. Overall an extremely well designed game that is a total package. A masterpiece no doubt.

Yes it's fun. Yes it is Monty Python. Yes it is one of the top games for a reason: Exploding Castle!
I do find it fun and had been wanting one for years. Now I know why it is in top demand as it is enjoyable time after time.
Layout similar to AFM, but different. I can play both and shoot up the middle or go for that Damsel ramp, so it's enough variation for me.

This game is #1 for a reason. Played it on vpx for years then in bars and finally had an opportunity to own my own. I was nervous about the longterm reliability on the remakes and am confident in my ability to fix issues on the wpc95 platform so I went with the original. Simple enough for new players to have a blast. Possibly the best toys in pinball. Most games last about a year in my 5 to 6 game lineup so well see if it ends up getting old but for now I can't stop playing it!

My very first pinball machine, great to get into the hobby - needless to say, this got not only me, but also many of my friends hooked on pinball. Clear rules, clear progression, a lot of depth and strategy for a 90s pin. Just overall an amazing machine, wouldn't have ever let this go if not for space limitations...

After owning over 50 machines still the best game I've ever played.Rated one of the top machines for a good reason.lots of fun lots of corky one-liners makes you want to come back and play again and again. Oh well after writing the review I think I'm gonna go downstairs and play a game right now.

Super fun classic. The callouts are pretty good (Tina Fey was in it) but are still limited and can get a little repetitive after a while. The ramp shots are difficult and blowing up all of the castles takes skill. Owned it years ago but ended up trading it.
