Take a Break! Pinball
This board is based on "King's Quest V". The game follows the narrative of the adventure game with objectives based on locations and encounters from that game. As objectives are completed on the board, new locations are opened up on the map. On this board, there was a bug that made the ball invisible after entering the Endless Desert Temple Stone Wall Trap. This was later patched with an updated DLL file. Three boards based on "Space Quest IV". This board is based on "Larry 5". It was later released as a stand-alone game in the early "Leisure Suit Larry" collections. This board is based on "The Adventures of Willy Beamish". Two boards based on "Nova 9". "Computer Gaming World" in 1993 liked "Take a Break! Pinball"s adventure game-like boards, but criticized the high CPU requirements, stating that performance "can be so bad as to be unplayable on a 386, and irritating on a 486". Interactive Entertainment CD ROM Magazine criticized the colorful graphics on the some boards, saying that they made it "nearly impossible to keep your eye on the ball". They said that "taken as a serious pinball simulation, it falls short in more than one area".
