Before 21st Century Entertainment began to achieve significant success in the field of computer flippers, many companies tried to create their own flippers. Among them was Pinball Magic, presented by the French company Loriciel, which in the electronic entertainment market was mainly known for its simple and pleasant arcade.
Pinball Magic at first glance does not impress. The table fits entirely on one screen, in addition, there are few targets and elements that can be hit by bouncing the ball with flippers. The aim of the competition is to "ignite" all the letters on the board, which allows you to open the exit located in the upper part of the table. If we manage to send a ball there, we move on to the next stage of the game, which is another, equally poor in of elements of flipper.
The program defends itself only and exclusively the possibility of "travelling" between tables (this idea was used much later in the product 21st Century Entertainment called Pinball World). Unfortunately, the gameplay, the most important thing in pinballs does not arouse positive feelings. The ball moves unrealistically, and the tables are built in such a way that we often lose it without any possibility of defense. In order to successfully break through the next boards, you have to be lucky - the ability to bounce the ball with flippers plays a secondary role.
