Zen Pinball: Rollercoaster game flips onto iPhone

And you can give the table a good shake

| Jul 10, 2008

Zen Studios has released the first pinball game for iPhone. It's called Zen Pinball: Rollercoaster, and it hit the App Store today.

The game sees you flipping a ball round one 3D table, yes, with a rollercoaster theme.

There are five game modes to keep you interested, with your ball running the gamut of bumpers, ramps, towers and bored fairground workers neglecting health and safety in favour of having a crafty cigarette while chatting up the woman on the candy floss stall.

Okay, not that last one.

You'll be tapping the iPhone's touchscreen to trigger the flippers, while you can also nudge the table by shaking the handset itself, thanks to The Power Of Accelerometers.

Zen Pinball: Rollercoaster is out now, and costs £2.99. Check its App Store product page here. I'm assuming more themed tables will be along soon.
