Inside Mac Games has posted a review of Runesoft's modern pinball simulation, Dream Pinball 3D. Featuring 6 different tables and a host of graphical features, the game brings a lot to the table. Here's an excerpt from the review:

Dream Pinball offers 6 different tables for your pinball pleasure, with themes ranging from classic horror monsters to emergency rescue helicopters. The tables aren't just flat graphics and lights serving as a background for your ball to run around on. First of all, they're set in a room resembling a fairly well-appointed family basement or an unusually clean and well-lit arcade, and depending on your camera angle, you can see the upright backboard of the table as well, with your score displayed in the usual place. Depending on the theme, various objects are scattered around the perimeter of the table, such as swords, skeletal hands, miniature castles, turtles, helicopters, and so on. Most of them don't serve any game play role, but they remind one of the plastic props found in some of the fancier pinball tables of the past, and add to the overall veracity. The playing surfaces themselves are adorned with the usual targets, lights, bumpers, and ramps, all very well rendered.
