PinOut is an audiovisual experience that's yet to be matched in another game for me. Every single stage is put together into a neon challenge you must face. All the synthwave tunes from Douglas Holmquist that play as you ascend this neverending pinball table put the experience on another level. There's no explicit story, but if you listen closely to the lyrics and pay attention to some details you can pick up on a vague narrative that the game has backdropping it. While paying a few bucks for checkpoints is absolutely worth it considering the game is otherwise free, there's nothing quite like reaching the "end" of PinOut in one go, racing against the clock and carefully aiming with each hit as you break through the barrier into a familiar unknown (which is my favorite "bonus level" of all time). It's all wrapped together into a quite frankly beautiful game that joins Mediocore's lineup of smash-hit mobile masterpieces.
