Hook, line, and sinker! Designed by Mark Ritchie, Fish Tales is a quintessential 90s classic that remains a staple in competitive play. Known for its quirky humour and infectious “country-rock” soundtrack, this machine invites players to the lakeside for a day of tall tales and even bigger catches.
The playfield is famous for its captive ball “fishing reel” mechanism, where you physically lock balls to prepare for the high-scoring Monster Fish multiball. The game features unique “short” flippers that make the lightning-fast shots even more challenging, along with a motorized flapping fish topper that celebrates every great catch. From the “Rock the Boat” swaying motion to the high-speed Caster’s Club ramps, the action never stops.
Why Play It?
Ranked highly on Pinside and Tilt Forums for its “punishing but addictive” gameplay, Fish Tales is the ultimate test of accuracy. Whether you’re stretching the truth in the “Tall Tales” mode or trying to land the elusive Super Jackpot, it’s a masterclass in risk-reward pinball.
Come test your skills and see if you’re brave enough to reel in the big one and become the ultimate Legend of the Lake!
