Farsight Studios, the makers of Pinball Arcade, are seeking backing on Kickstarter to recreate one of the most popular pinball tables of all time. Their campaign to bring The Addams Family pinball table to digital devices currently rests at $62,326 of its $97,640 goal.
The table, based on the 1991 film adaptation of The Addams Family, was one of the top selling tables in history with over 20,000 units sold and was “integrated more deeply to the movie than any other licensed pinball table of its time.”
Should the game receive funding, it would be added to the impressive lineup of classic tables found Farsight’s game Pinball Arcade, which was well received by gamers and press. The series is home to recreations of such classic horror tables as Elvira, Attack from Mars, and The Creature from the Black Lagoon.
The funding Farsight is seeking is intended to pay for the extensive licensing the adaptation requires. While some licenses have been acquired, rights are still needed from original table developer Williams and to use the likenesses and voiceovers of actors Raul Julia and Anjelica Houston on the table’s backglass and playfield.
Pinball Arcade is available for PS4, Xbox One, Wii U, Mac, PC, iPhone, Android, Vita, and Ouya. You can contribute to the game’s Kickstarter campaign here.
