Difficulty on TZ and star trek

[iguanarama]

i wish someone would make a tips and strategies thread.

I put one together the other day (noticing the same thing); it's over in the ST:TNG forum.

I consider myself a casual player. I don't play much real pinball and TPA not even every day. I've played maybe 20 full games of Twilight Zone and I got a decent hi-score of 1.8 billion and have completed all but one of the wizard goals. It might take a little longer to get the hang of than some other tables but it's not harder. I think the difficulty level is perfect, it's really about skills and not so much about random drains. Compare it with for example Ripley's which is also an advanced table but much harder. While a game of TZ usually lasts around 20-30 minutes for me, I'm game over in Ripley's after maybe 10 minutes. And there are other games, like TOTAN, where the randomness factor is much bigger.

Star Trek, on the other hand, is a tough nut to crack.
