The world of iPad apps just got a whole lot more metal with the launch of Slayer: Pinball Rocks, a new game featuring an animated skull that eats your ball and spits it out through its eye hole
"As a life-size pinball player, this looks so awesome," said Slayer's Kerry King in a press release announcing the app, available for iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch. "It looks really fun and entertaining, with a shot of evil, and it could definitely keep me up all night with a few shots for myself."
The $3 Slayer: Pinball Rocks app (iTunes link) comes steeped in metal imagery like guitars, amps and razor blades. It features music from Slayer's latest record, World Painted Blood, as well as voiceovers by band members. A Pinball Rocks promo video on the Slayer site shows the game's "realistic gaming experience," although if you're twitching like the game's jittercam when you play that silver ball, you should probably seek medical attention.
