This is one to really learn  pinball fundamentals on, and  it's not too hard.2) Super Mario Bros. very easy table.  only time a beginner will have trouble getting a replay is if it's ludicrously high.3) Teed Off. learn to trap and shoot for the win.  Very easily pwned once you get to lightning storm.4) Bad Cats. Meow, mya-meow meow. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> center ramp has a really easy sweet spot for extra balls.5) back to the future. left ramp all day, and it puts it right on the flipper to shoot it off the plunge. another easily found sweet spot.6) police force. an eminently loopable center ramp that has good rewards.7) DE original Batman.  the center ramp is so easy to loop that it kicks the ball off of it if you aren't in million plus.8) DE original star wars.  Stay on target... Stay on target... (center ramp)9) Street FIghter 2. another case of learning how to play the field. teaches good shot making fundamentals.10) WHO Dunnit.  This was conceived as an easier table, and it shows.  But it has enough depth to it that it wont' bore you when you get better.But in TPA, i consider the following beginner tables.1) Creature from the black lagoon (at least for now it is) easy easy easy.2) Teed Off3) Elvira and the party monsters. The all important ramps are safe to attempt to shoot. that's what makes it so much easier than real life.4) Funhouse. (you can play for AGES if you keep getting extra balls)5) Twilight Zone. (it's really a kitten compared to real life. once you learn to trap and control that slot machine..)6) High Speed (if you want to roll a game on TPA, this is the one)7) Bride of pinbot. get that backdoor billion. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />8) Xenon.  This is very friendly and a beginner has a good shot of infiniting it. and set very liberally.9) Jacks Open.  Simple, and rather kind for an EM.10) WHO Dunnit.  Again once you learn to collect thoes clues you can play for AGES.  I've rolled this one too.</blockquote>
