>Full game comes with 3 tables
>Give 1 away with zero restrictions as a demo
90's PC game devs seemed to LOVE giving away a third of their game as shareware. I remember ID practically gave their games away for free and some were just straight up unique content like Half Life and Daggerfall.

never did get any of the alternate forms of solitaire
should probably go back and see if i just had a terminal case of child brain or if they were as bad as i remember

I was never good enough to actually "play" pinball so I would use some some key input to manually move the ball around and enjoy the cool bleep bloop noises

Windows 95 chads where we at?

Does windows 10 even have any preinstalled games?

>>714221517
yeah it has the telemetry game where you spend ten hours editing the registry with a github guide to make the operating system usable

>>714221517
It opens a "Microsoft Casual games" app that requires an internet connection, a Microsoft account to save progress (cloud saves only btw) and runs ads unless you pay to turn them off.

Grim. Maybe the Linux nerds have a point...

Spider is okay. Free cell is cancer. It's as horrible as you remember it.

We here

So what's the meta or strategy here? how do keep the ball from going right down the middle? is it all just RNG?

>>714221793
If I weren't completely incapable of it I would make a Linux based OS designed to be run off a USB drive that was just loaded with every piece of classic freeware and shareware. Gamestick OS.

Please understand but I am so worn down by contrariansim I can no longer discern whether you want to have some fun shitposting or have never played pinball.

>>714222178
nta but im wondering the same thing
i played this game when i was a kid and never cared about losing but i wonder if it's possible to never lose this if you tryhard it

>>714222404
>i wonder if it's possible to never lose this
Yes it's possible, don't take bad shots and the ball will always go where you want it (back to your paddle)

>>714222029
>is it all just RNG?
Yes.
Pinball faggots are unemployed losers who contribute nothing to society (like Antifa); they will lie to themselves by gaslighting everyone else by saying otherwise, that Pinball is decided 100% by skill.

>>714222404
It is definitely possible to be good at pinball. Luck plays very little part in it, although familiarity with the machine layout it probably necessary. Whether space cadet replicates that accurately is another question and I don't know for sure but it certainly seems fair. Yes there is a gap where you can't hit the ball but if the game is coded in a fair way the ball isn't magnetized to it, it will only end up going through it as a result of bounces that you caused and probably could have prevented.
