I saw the notification once when I logged in but I also got a server error and haven't been able to claim it anywhere since. I wonder if they are aware of the issue?On another topic, I just got my account activated and wanted to give some thoughts from someone who has last played a real pinball machine as a kid in the 90's. The tables are mostly good and feel fun to play, albeit some of them feel better than others. Tables like the Hurricane or Safecracker and to some extent Getaway are terrible and seem like impossible to get a good score on. Favourite ones include Theatre of magic, Attack from Mars and Medieval madness. From tables previously unknown to me I dig Creature from the black lagoon a lot. I have played the free game enough to 2-star all available tables and haven't had to purchase any. I have enough parts to promote some more tables to level 3, but I'm unsure if I even want to do it since that means they will start to appear in the challenges and I feel like I can't clear harder challenges on something like Junkyard. I've spent some zen coins on the enhanced physics and the extra challenge, although the latter was a mistake since every attempt costs 25 tickets and the harder challenges are really hard for me. I usually have to recycle them to get one I can clear, such as ToM 5-minute challenge. Some of my issues stem from the weirdness of the tables, I don't know if that's a thing with the real versions as well. For example, hitting the left ramp on Arabian nights seems impossible for me and when the ball launches back in the game on Fish tales it tends to go down the middle no matter what I do with the pads. Some ramps and shots on other machines are super hard and some just seem to be super easy too. Sometimes I've noticed that the right pad simply won't move when I touch the screen, and I don't know if that's an issue with the game or my phone. Sometimes it's real annoying to get just ball and flipper skins from the challenges instead of useful things like tickets or parts. But all in all I've had great fun and I'm eagerly waiting for some new tables. The ones in the game feel mostly very fun to play, especially with enhanced physics.</blockquote>
