One of the most anticipated pinball machines in recent memory has finally arrived! @SpookyPinball has officially unleashed The Goonies, and Ken Cromwell and Greg Bone are sharing their firsthand impressions after spending time playing the game at Spooky Pinball headquarters in Benton, Wisconsin.
Rather than simply running through a list of features, we're taking a closer look at what makes this game special, how it actually plays, and whether Spooky has managed to capture the magic of one of the most beloved adventure films of the 1980s. From the incredible One-Eyed Willy sculpt and interactive bone organ to the pirate ship upper playfield, Christopher Franchi's artwork, and a surprisingly fast and satisfying widebody layout, there's plenty to discuss!
We also share some behind-the-scenes stories from filming the official reveal content, discuss the extremely limited Standard and Super Limited Editions, and reflect on why The Goonies remains such an iconic film more than 40 years later.
Is this Spooky Pinball's best-shooting game yet? Has the ultimate dream theme finally lived up to the hype? Join us for an honest, enthusiastic conversation about a game we've been waiting years to experience!
