Table Pack #8: Attack From Mars? and Genie? has just been released for iOS and Android. These are two fantastic tables! The Table of the Month is Medieval Madness? Pro, which can be played for free this month.

Attack From Mars? was designed by Brian Eddy, who also designed Medieval Madness?. An army of Martians is attacking Earth and it?s the player?s job to defend it. With its open playfield and easy to understand rules this table is a blast to play. Features include a moving flying saucer in the middle of the playfield, dancing Martians and a hypnotic strobe light.

Genie? is considered by many to be the best wide-body table of its era and possibly of all-time, a true Gottlieb? classic that is very addictive. This table was designed with well thought-out objectives and features five flippers. Two flippers in the upper left corner create a mini playfield.

EYE See You!

The top 100 finishers in the December tournament have been sent an email congratulating them and have been awarded the Eyeball Custom Ball. The mobile updates released this week have this cool looking ball included under the Extras menu option.

The only way to get the Eyeball is to finish well in a tournament, so if you want it - you're going to have to earn it!
