Ahoy Skipper!

 

Gilligan's Island was released by Bally in 1991 with approximately 4,100 produced.  A campy theme with wide appeal and a very simple rule set that makes for a whole lot of fun.

 

The original Visual Pinball version of Gilligan's looked great from Dark and mfuegemann and rothbauerw further expanded on that version with vast physics improvements.  There were some other areas of improvement that needed to be addressed with some of the modern technologies offered by VPW libraries.  What you will find is a great looking and smoother playing version of this game that makes for a fun flip session!

 

Here are the improvements and pedigree of this table:
 

Based on the original Visual Pinball mod from Dark and mfuegemann (2016)
Further refined on rothbauerw physics and subway models
VR Room based on Arvid's standalone VR Room
 

TastyWasps
* nFozzy/Roth Physics, Fleep Sounds, TargetBouncer, VR Room

Once again @TastyWasps steps up with a little help from his friends to deliver a fantastic version of Gilligan's Island. The goofy sitcom of the 60's translates well to this fun romp of a pin. The physics feel great, the artworks and lighting is on par with todays VPW releases. Well done Tasty and team!!

(note the additional stuff in my pic are my own additions)

WOW ! 
VR with pass through is really good !
thanks for adding that (and what a good idea ;) ) 
I've never seen this table in real life, but playing in VR (in my own small game room) makes it if I play it on a real one.
good job and thanks all for this great table

Awesome timing and luck for me. This table was randomly selected for my next Lone Play Lottery video, so I will use this version when I do it!! This table has always been good, although younger folks may not understand or know the theme. Give it a go, this is fun stuff! and this version is sure to thrill!!! Cheers, D

Happy to see this table get the treatment, even though for years I wanted to strangle Gilligan :) These less complicated tables are a favorite of mine especially if they look, play and feel just like the real thing. VR is fantastic once again, thanks for that and thanks to Tasty Wasps for choosing this classic and to everyone that helped out.

Table looks and plays really well in VR. Really love the instructions on the right hand side. I'll have to mirror this for my other tables.

Looks and plays fantastic! Very fun table. Keep up the great work and the excellent "deep cut" picks for updating, it's very much appreciated. 🍻

This table is colourful, playful and just a lot of fun! Certainly a keeper!
The recreation is well done by Tastywasps (as usual!). Great physics, looks  and lighting.

I can recommend stereo 3D and the Pup pack for immersion.

Thank you so much for the hard work on the table and for sharing with us!

What can I say about this theme... nothing! I've never watched it but at least I recognised the theme song 😉 . I can say though that TastyWasps made a great recreation that plays smoothly and that I expect plays true to the real thing. It seems to be one of the easier playing tables, so more people should get a chance to get the 50 million Kona's Treasure for making it through the Lava Seltzer mode.
