Pro Pinball: Timeshock! received mixed to positive reviews.
A skilled player can employ these techniques to extend ball times considerably. These features make Pro Pinball: Timeshock! much less of a game of chance.
However, if used recklessly, one can at worst "throw" the ball into the drain, or more likely, waste a good magno-save: Once used, the magno-save must be re-enabled by hitting a set of drop targets. If used correctly, this either draws the ball out of the drain, or stops it before it gets there. The right drain features a "magno-save": an electromagnet placed just to the left of the right drain, activated by hitting a particular key. The left drain features an escape hatch back into the main play area, which, with a well timed nudge one can coerce the ball to travel through. Like many pinball games, Pro Pinball: Timeshock! has features around the drains to give the player opportunity to "save" the ball. This provides variety, and helps facilitate a wider set of goals. For example, the player might be awarded with a ray gun in the future, whilst in the present day the player might be awarded with a magnet. Completion of certain objectives allows the player to travel between time zones (although some must be unlocked first, by means of completing secondary objectives).Īlthough the basic method of playing is persistent across time zones, the details of particular awards and objectives are themed towards the current time. At any one time the player is in one of a handful of time zones, the main ones being The Present Day, The Distant Future, Ancient Rome and The Prehistoric Age. The inclusion of a time machine fixture on the table facilitates the game's time travel theme.
