Barrels of Fun Launches Winchester Mystery House Pinball
RAS2025-10-14T01:31:44+00:00This week sees the return of Pinball Expo, and with that, we get some new game announcements. One company that has certainly been behind some interesting designs (and the only pinball manufacturer who doesn’t put “pinball” into their name) is Barrels of Fun. Earlier this year they did DUNE, and now they’ve taken a different tack with Winchester Mystery House. Let’s take a look.
What is the Winchester Mystery House?

This wild haptic system can be used to build vehicles
RAS2025-10-13T12:27:48+00:00Arduino Team — October 13th, 2025 As virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality (MR) slowly grow in adoption, their shortcomings become more obvious. Most glaringly, they only engage users’ sense of sight and hearing. Haptic tactile feedback is almost non-existent and so picking up a “sword” in VR feels like picking up a VR controller, because that’s what you’re actually doing.
