Reception

A review by Next Generation gave it only two stars out of five, explaining that the game doesn't play well due to "rigid" animation and unrealistic, unpredictable physics. They added that the game makes good use of the video game format with its multi-tiered tables and animated targets, but that these elements are "superfluous" without good playability.[2]

Atarihq.com rated Ruiner Pinball 5 of 10.[3]

GamePro's brief review described the game as enjoyable but unexceptional, saying that it "looks like a plain old 16-bit pinball game" and offers nothing unusual in its pinball action aside from the unusually large tables.[4] Electric Playground gave Ruiner Pinball a 4/10, calling it "the Latoya Jackson of video pinball games". They elaborated that the gameplay is "boring and tedious" and that the blurry and overly busy visuals cause the ball to be frequently lost against the backgrounds.[5]

The video game has an average critic score at MobyGames of 51%.[6]
