Both Pinball Dreams and Pinball Fantasies are considered games of cult in the pinball simulation world. Pinball Fantasies was more techinically advanced that its predessor, offering many new features that the original didn't. For example, each of the pinball tables were now three screens high (instead of two in Pinball Dreams), tables now included three flippers, more advanced animations and even multiball. Although Pinball Fantasies is considered an excellent game, only one out of the four tables offers a lot of replay value (Party Land). Because of this many people consider Pinball Dreams to be a better game.
