Longtime TPA fans on this website may remember the infamous "TPA/Olive Garden" comparison. This isn't the first time Pinball Arcades and culinary institutions have collided.
Yeah, that pretty much sums it up.
Actually the butters table has three flippers, there's on to the right of the spinning disc. I bought these and think they're fantastic fun, I don't know why folk say zen is too easy and you can play for hours, as I certainly can't! I wish they'd change the flipper sounds and sort out the nudging, it just doesn't alter the ball path at all. There's no proper lighting either, but on the whole it'd say it's well worth a punt.The first table has a bit of TSPP going on with that upper playfield.
And the second one is a two-flipper affair. A rare beast in Zen's work. Trying to figure out how you reach that semi-circle of spot targets, though...

Coming from playing Pinball Arcade pretty much exclusively, the nudging on South Park pinball definitely works differently. The ball won't move nearly as much so you can't nudge well in advance of a STDM drain like you would on TPA to change the ball path. However, if you time your nudge just as the ball is about to go down an outlane or just as it's approaching the edge of a raised flipper, you'll hear a *BLOOP* sound effect and the ball will magically bump out of the outlane. It's a much less realistic effect, but seems geared toward allowing a save if you get the timing right.
Meanwhile, I'm having a lot of fun with both tables but they do seem pretty difficult. The Wizard Modes seem on par with Medieval Madness or Attack From Mars in difficultly to reach them, and neither table doles out many extra balls.
Can either of you guys explain to me how to nudge Zen tables on the iPad? I can do it on my PS3 but it appears it doesn't nudge the same way The Pinball Arcade does on an iPad.
Keep calm.....
On other hand, I haven't found no other tables as from TPA and ZEN, where I was the meaning to pay for them and I've try a lot of....
Mute button is your friend
I just bought this last night on android and it doesn't play at full resolution on my phone for some reason. I have an LG Optimus G Pro with a 5.6in 1080p screen that usually looks pixel-less but South Park which is the only zen ive tried on it looks all jaggy and muddy and is seemigly playing at what looks like half of my phone's resolution stretched. It's really annoying having been so used seeing clean crisp games on the screen. Doesn't seem to be anything in the setting to fix it.
