CINE STAR RETRO
A NEW TABLE ADDED TO THE RETRO PACK IN 2025
The first of thirteen tables added to the infamous Retro pack in the year 2025 is, for all intents and purposes, shooting school. There’s no outlanes or slingshots, and besides a slightly enlarged drain, no antagonistic elements or angles. The only defensive aspect of the table is that the rails have a tendency to run fast. Hey, schools make kids run, right? But grabbing rebounds in Cine Star Retro is a cinch since you get to set the terms with minimum chaos. So what’s the point of the table? The five drop targets and eight spot targets are set along common angles that makes this an ideal table to quickly teach players both a shooter’s stroke AND conversion shots. Angela, Oscar, and Dash couldn’t get over the lack of stakes, but Cathy and Sasha enjoyed the scoring system’s progressive values of the drop targets and Jordi loved the lack of vacuum outlanes and the uncluttered, wide-open playfield. “What’s not to love?” Jordi said, though Oscar especially was annoyed by the lack of risk/reward. Our biggest knock is an undervalued kickhole that’s not worth the risk, but this wasn’t the disaster Dave predicted when he first saw it.
