That said, even knowing the suspect doesn't mean you'll be successful at catching them as do so requires running the gauntlet of timed shots. Subversively hilarious with the private eye who has a gambling problem theme, the pin is super fun and the designers got the theming tied together near perfectly.Īs others have said where this falls down is in predictability with the rules, there is a fairly simple story mode that never varies in order, after playing a few times you really don't need to bother with clues at all to decide who the suspect should be. So I personally couldn't do any real marathon plays on this machine. I will say while I think the DMD and the animations are great and varied, it also to me does take away the replay value, as it just gets old seeing footage over and over. Not my favorite all time pinball game, but it is a fun one to play. And to me that is one of the best features for this game. I know a few games had this feature, but I wish it caught on a bit more. In novice mode you get a guaranteed 3 minutes of play and I like to choose that mode and play head to head with people, as I think its just more fun than always switching after a ball. I also like that this have novice and expert mode. I think for the lighting to best be experienced would be a dark room, as when the ax gets tossed at you to start multiball the lights on the game go out and that's a cool effect. I do like the feeling the game goes for as a detective movie, and thanks to the dmd animations you really do feel like you're in an interactive detective pinball game(which I guess you are in). And while the theme is cool and I think the artwork is competent, it just really doesn't stand out or pop for me. Also I like the multiple loops that you need to shoot for too. I like aiming for it and just hitting it all the time. Lots a cool toys scattered around the playfield from a slot machine, to phones, but my favorite feature is the center ramp. I think Who Dunnit has a nice theme going for it, some great sound, lighting, and how it integrates the DMD and all the animations is really just top notch.
