One table comes free, but there are 34 more available for purchase within. Also, the various views-both landscape and portrait-really give you control over your focus and how much of the table you want to see at any given time. Luckily, when it comes to what happens below the glass, Zen Pinball totally nails the way a pinball should bounce and react, and taps on a touch screen prove plenty responsive for slapping the virtual ball around with the flippers. It plays so well: True, the shift from a 4-foot-long table to a digital version played on your 9-inch tablet is tremendous, and the lack of physicality takes something away from the experience.
