Episode 29: The Kong Gong – Secrets, Speculation, and First Reactions to King Kong!

In this episode of The FlipSide, we’re diving into Stern’s King Kong pinball teaser. We didn’t get much in the trailer—but let’s talk about what we did see. Are we excited or disappointed? And if it was a bit underwhelming… does it even matter? Because let’s be honest—Keith Elwin always brings the heat.

Is Keith’s signature innovation and masterful flow enough to get you hyped for a giant ape-themed game? Or could this be his first real miss? Let’s break it all down.

We’re also talking about Barrels of Fun’s upcoming second game—rumored to be Dune. The community might be hoping for G.I. Joe or Goonies, but can David and the team make you care about Dune as a theme? Or will the gameplay be so good that theme doesn’t even matter?

Plus, some thoughts on games already in the wild—Dungeons & Dragons is HOT, at least in my opinion, even if content creators seem to have already moved on. Let’s give it the love it deserves.

And we can’t skip over Spooky’s Evil Dead—honestly, I’m not even a horror fan, and that game blew my mind. Let’s talk about why. All this and MORE in episode 29 of The Flipside!
