Just don't. It is very broken; more annoying than fun.
Nice and little pinball flipper game from finnish game maker Tero Lunkka/ Valkeala Software.
Nice simple small levels and big good achievements.
"Lawnmower Game: Pinball" ist ein kleines Flipper-Spiel.
Dabei ist es schon fast naheliegend, daß sich ein "Lawnmower"-Flipper nicht ganz ernst nimmt und eher als Gag denn als wirklich ernstzunehmender Tisch zu verstehen ist. Allerdings sollte man dennoch nicht davon ausgehen, daß das Spiel ein Haufen kaputter Schrott ist.
Sechs Tische gibt es, die sich allerdings nur in Details bzw. Positionierung der Elemente unterscheiden. Keiner ist auch nur annähernd interessant. Zudem scheinen die Macher so ziemlich nichts von Flippern zu verstehen. Was da wild beliebig zusammengeschustert wurde, hat mit einem echten Flipper nichts zu tun.
Die Ball-Physik ist bestenfalls als zweckmäßig, in vielen Situationen als absurd unrealistisch zu bezeichnen. Teils scheint der Ball extrem leicht zu sein oder gar keine Physik zu haben. Außerdem erkennt der Ball gerne mal nicht an, daß auf einem Flipper eine Glasplatte liegt.
Wirklich ins Aus katapultiert sich der Tisch aber damit, daß der Ball irgendwo steckenbleibt oder sich gar ganz aus dem Bildschirm verabschiedet, indem er durch die Wände glitcht. Zwar kann man am Tisch per Tastendruck rütteln, meist kümmert das den festgefahrenen Ball aber gar nicht.
Dadurch wird ein als Spaß-Flipper gedachtes Spiel zu einer nahezu unspielbaren Katastrophe, die wirkt, als hätte man irgendwas an einem Nachmittag zusammengeklöppelt. Die billige Grafik und der schwache Sound runden das Bild von einem Schrott-Artikel gekonnt ab.

very good for the price. could use refinement but nothings gamebreaking.
It's a fun and typical relaxing pinball game, but it’s pretty short. I enjoyed my time with it, although there are a few issues. The ball often gets stuck or flies out of the machine, which can be frustrating. It’s an easy game overall, and getting achievements is simple, but the 2-minute achievements took longer than expected—some even took up to five minutes to pop. Despite these bugs, it’s still a decent game for those looking for a chill experience.
The best lawnmower-themed pinball game I've ever played
I have always loved pinball machines, and they were one of the first videogames I played them in my childhood like the iconic 3D Pinball: Space Cadet, when I entered the gaming world for the first time. And I love this videogame because it is lawnmower theme. :-D
CONCLUSION: I highly recommend it, both at full and discounted prices
This is a minimal-effort product where someone threw a couple of lawnmower-themed graphics on 6 very basic pinball tables and called it a day. The game is very cheap, but since it does not work properly, it can't be recommended regardless.
After my first 30 seconds of playing, the ball became stuck irrecoverably - neither activating the flippers nor using the "shake machine" function would dislodge it. I had to exit back to the main menu, and tried a different table. This time it took only 20 seconds for the ball to get stuck. Apparently this game has not been playtested at all, or the developer simply did not care. In any case, I would not regard it as playable in its current state.
Even without that gamebreaking issue, the game wouldn't actually be good. The tables are extremely simple - as far as I can tell, there are no missions and no different playstates. I couldn't even find bonus multipliers or extra balls, though it's possible that I just wasn't able to play for long enough to find them.
The game also has absolutely no settings except a windowed/fullscreen toggle. Keys are fixed to A and D for the flippers, Ctrl for "shake machine", and Space to launch the ball. You basically have to use your left hand to control both flippers, and you'll have to place your fingers at an angle if you use an AZERTY keyboard. Graphics are rather plain, and the soundtrack consists of little more than 5 notes repeated ad nauseum.
If you're interested in a cheap pinball game, I suggest trying the free tables of Pinball FX and/or Zaccaria Pinball. If these don't work for you and you want a few simple tables at low cost, then Malzbie's Pinball is also an option. "Lawnmower Game: Pinball" is, unfortunately, just a waste of your time and money - though at least you won't lose much of either.
If you're interested in achievements - it takes 12 minutes to get all 12 achievements for this game. If adding another "100%" game to your library is worth the money to you, then that's the only usecase I can see where you'd get your money's worth out of it. Personally I'd rather play a good game than grinding through bad ones just to raise an arbitrary number on my profile that no one will ever look at by a few more points ... but hey, different strokes for different folks. :)
A wonderful spinoff to the legendary Lawnmower Game franchise. 10/10
This is an interesting Pinball... With a variety of levels, but there are only 6 of them :| No more.
The controls are convenient.
Bought the game as a collection, for less than $1
But I didn't get the only thing. Why is the game called lawnmower pinball? lol
We're not going to mow the lawn are we? We just want to play pinball?
I guess this is the kind of commercial move that will increase the popularity of the Lawnmower series of games? I liked that one. It's unusual ^^
cool game and graphics, I will continue to play. + like the price
This game reminded me of the times when I was sitting on windows 7 and playing a similar embedded game. At that time, I didn't even have the Internet yet and had to pass the time for such a game. Nostalgia.
В принципе, это как ремастеред старого, добро пейнтбола ещё на старых версиях Windows, с которой ни любая игра не сравнится :D
А именно в этой версии не хватает какого-то экшена что ли, не хватает такого как в самой настоящей версии, которая в 2д виде, там и местность была больше, много различных бонусов и так далее)
