- Many Future Pinball tables do this thing where the ball will go from one bumper to the next without anything interesting happening, traveling upwards until it drains. This made me hate pinball for a while. This does not happen with Caltrops pinball - well done.

- Haven't got tired of Pleasure Inspector yet. A new song for multi-ball gives you even more reason to want multi-ball.

- Two warnings before a tilt!

- The preview light showing you how much time you have before drains take away a ball. Brilliant.

- So, for multi-ball, I can basically determine how many balls are released by sending them up there, instead of every other pinball game in the world that I know about, which gives you a fixed number. This is the true stroke of genius for this table.


Questions:
- If I pull the plunger back all the way and release the ball, it seems to skip over the top of the table and go to the left side, where it hits the wall. Not sure if this is intentional, in other words, I should lay off the plunger to get it to go to a better spot.


Dislikes
- nVidia drivers! 163 finally worked.
