    Is it just me, or is this REALLY addicting? It takes control of my hours, days and weeks.

    Honestly no, it actually bugged me more than anything because you are forced to play it to get the coins, instead of being able to just save up money and buy them. I don't find it that addicting or fun.

    Doima, I felt the same way, but then I actually started playing out of compromise and caught on on how to actually play it and now I feel like Ben and I kind of want to go play now because it's really really good.
    It's infinitely better than previous game corners, even if it doesn't let you buy the coins.

    I'm not fond of Voltorb Flip. : /
    I miss the slot machines....and I forgot what the other one was. XD But I'd rather do them... or buy the coins.....

    Well In pass gens i just would save up and buy some because I HATED the slot machines! I never won anything in the slots and as a kid a got really frustrated because all my friends would always get the 7-7-7 in sapphire and I couldn't!

    When HG/SS came out I hated the Voltorb Flip because I could no longer buy the coins, and I thought it was based on luck. After a while I noticed it has to do with logic and some math, so I played it for about 2 weeks straight and got the hang of it. But i only go back to it when I need coins, I never play it on my free time.

    I like voltorb flip more than the slot machines xD I mean I liked how we could buy the coins but if we couldnt buy coins and had to use slot machines I'd just give up. But voltorb flip I can manage to at least get dratini when I want it *_*

    This is addicting to me. I usually play 22 times before I realize I can't get past level 1.

    I think I've been up to level 4, maybe 5. Is there a certified way to win, or does it eventually boil down to luck when it comes to choosing cards?

    Well, in the highest levels, by playing smartly you can only narrow the possibilities of losing (And narrow them A LOT more than by just picking random cards), but I think, yeah, you can only get so far without luck being involved.

    Voltorb Flip really aggravated me to no end at first, until I realized how thought out it really was. Even if it did replace the slot machines, you realize that you can't blame luck for not being able to win anything. My favorite part was how it was just a logic puzzle, along with a few 50/50 shots of losing.

    After learning how to play, I finally started to enjoy Voltorb Flip.

    The key is knowing that cards with 1 do not need to be flipped. Then there are entire columns/rows that are unnecessary for you to touch. If the number adds up 5, then that line is useless. After realizing this, you can try to work out the rest yourself. Once I got it, Voltorb Flip was simply great.

    I didn't like it... I would have preferred to just buy the Pokémon rather than have to play some stupid game over and over again. The game wasn't even fun enough for me to enjoy at all, and it just bugged me.

    Oh god. The anger that I have with that game, is unbelievable. I hate the game so much. It's annoying because you have to play it if you want coins. You want Flamethrower, Ice Beam, or ThunderBolt before the post-game? Play the worst game in the entire series to get it.

    I seriously hate the game. It's not fun to me, it's frustrating, and you have to slave for hours for coins. The last one is true with most other game corners, but in some you can at least BUY coins.

    I actually liked Voltorb Flip, but, like others said, woulda been nice if I could buy coins and if all the other types of games (slot machines and roulette) were there.
