Game Review

Extreme Pinball is a pinball game developed by Digital Extremes and published by Electronic Arts for DOS and PlayStation in 1995. It is the successor to Epic Pinball.

The game is pretty simple as it is pinball; you have to hit the structures placed on the ball to gain points. The goal is to get the highest score possible, sealing your name in the glory list of contenders. Often, your ball would whizz around and smack something to give you something extra, like a few points or an additional shot. The game allows you to choose the number of balls you want per round, and players can add a second player to compete with.

The exciting part of the game is the different tables involved; there are four tables in Extreme Pinball, each with its theme and playstyle. Playing on one table is entirely different from playing on the other, as each table has its secrets that add to the game's overall difficulty. It is also pretty cool because the music changes according to the table, and when the ball does something on the board, it looks like a neat sequence of hits! The ball even changes its form if you manage to hit something specific on the board because I swear, one time, my ball was whizzing around, and from what it looked like, it was a purple CD!

Although the graphics are in 2D and not 3D, they are still pretty nice, the ball looks realistic enough and whizzes around like how a real ball would. Compared to Epic Pinball, tables are longer and a screen resolution of 320x400 is supported.

Although the title received negative reviews from most after its release, Extreme Pinball is one the fastest and most exciting games in its genre.
