PinOut
PinOut, développé et édité par Mediocre, est sorti le 31 août 2016 sur Android et iOS. Ce titre mêlant arcade et flipper réinvente la mécanique classique du pinball à travers un parcours continu dans un canyon de lumières pulsantes et de beats rétro wave, proposant une course contre la montre conçue par les créateurs de Smash Hit et Does not Commute. La presse a salué son approche renouvelée du flipper, Pocket Gamer UK le qualifiant de réimaginaire du pinball qui surpasse l'original par son aspect coloré et amusant, tandis que Gamezebo a jugé l'expérience exceptionnelle et accessible aux joueurs confirmés comme aux novices. Certains joueurs, à l'image d'un avis publié sur Metacritic, ont de leur côté décrit le jeu comme particulièrement addictif sur mobile, tout en précisant avoir testé la version payante et non la version gratuite.

Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« Bright, colourful, and tons of fun, PinOut is a reimagining of pinball that blows the original out the water. »
« PinOut is an exceptional pinball experience that will appeal to wizards and novices alike. Take advantage of the free download, enjoy the fresh jams and flip away. And when you quickly find yourself wanting to continue from your last checkpoint, know that your small monetary investment costs far less than an evening at the arcade but will be just as entertaining — and for a lot longer. »
« It's a little on the shorter side, and its board design leans a bit heavily on the same particularly type of skill shot, but overall, it's still a solid experience that is greatly elevated by its excellent presentation. Given that it's basically free, it's hard to come up with reasons why you shouldn't at least give it a try. »
« It's a little simplistic and something in the ball isn't quite perfect, but the reinterpretation of the classic pinball in PinOut works very well and the game is enjoyable. »
« Pinball can be a really neat thing, especially when it looks and feels great. Unfortunately, this game only nails its look. »
Avis des Joueurs (Metacritic)
« For this review, I want to preface it by saying that I'm review the paid, not free game. This is a rather addicting mobile game. First and foremost, it just does its job of being a pinball game very well. The mechanics and physics work well and the controls are tight. There are numerous levels to go through and you can replay from the beginning to get a better time to start from on each level. Now, as far as I'm concerned, one of the biggest draws of the game is the music. It's super catchy and plays well within the game. My favorites are after the first and second checkpoint. I have actually played it in order to hear the music. »
