## What is Watch Pinball?

Real pinball, made for your wrist.

They said it wouldn't work. We didn't let that stop us.

Five full tables for Apple Watch, each with its own layout, missions, multiball and wizard mode. Wind the plunger with the Digital Crown, flip with a tap or a flick of the crown, and nudge the table with a shake of your wrist. Just don't shake it too hard.

Boredom be gone! It's the ultimate one more quick go: already on your wrist, so you're playing before you'd have your phone out.

COSMIC
Fuel up and lift off. Drop the F-U-E-L targets to light the launch ramp for two-ball multiball, climb through hyperspace, chase the UFO for double scoring and dive into the black hole.

CLOCKWORK
Play inside a watch movement. The dial in the middle shows the real time, so the numbers you need to hit depend on when you play. The second hand sweeps round batting the ball, the hours strike mid-game, and after dark the dial glows.

SUGAR RUSH
Go for gumballs. Fill the sugar meter for a Sugar Rush, drop C-H-O-C to light the gumball machine for multiball, swirl the giant lollipop, ride the candy cane corkscrew and bump the jelly bear. Bake five recipes to become Sugar King.

HAUNTED
Lock the crypt. Spell B-O-O to light the lock, trap two balls, then summon a three-ball séance. Ride the spiral staircase, ring the belfry, and catch the ghost three times to light up the pumpkins.

TREASURE
Plunder the wreck. Knock down G-O-L-D to open the chest, loop the crossing PLANK and MAST ramps for combos, fire the cannon and dodge the shark.

MADE FOR A SMALL SCREEN
• The camera does the hard part: it follows the ball and drops to the flippers before it gets there, so you never lose a ball you couldn't see.
• Catch and aim: a long tap keeps that flipper up, so you can trap the ball and line up your shot.
• Kickbacks in both outlanes give you a second chance.
• A proper dot-matrix display keeps score, counts your bonus and shouts about jackpots.
• Haptics you can feel: bumpers thump, the plunger ratchets as you wind it.

A WHOLE ARCADE ON YOUR WRIST
Every table is drawn in code and every sound is synthesised, so it's a tiny download.

EVERYTHING YOU'D EXPECT
• Skill shots, combos, bonus multipliers, extra balls and ball saves
• Five missions per table, a rank to climb and a wizard mode to unlock
• High score table for every table
• Arcade sound effects (with a quiet setting)
• A one-minute How to Play that teaches you on a real table

One price, all five tables included. No ads, no in-app purchases, no account, no data collected.

### 5/5 — Genuinely good fun

*2026-11-03*

A watch is clearly not the natural place to find a pinball table but I applaud the fact that this exists. 

It’s genuinely fun to mess around with in long meetings and nobody thinks you are gaming on a watch!

The crown is such a fun way to use the flippers that I hardly use the touch mechanism unless holding a ball.

4 tables has kept me going but hope the developer adds more in the future!

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.1.3 — 2026-11-11

Fixes the tables and the tutorial closing as soon as they open on Apple Watch Series 8 and earlier, and Apple Watch SE. Sorry to everyone who hit this, and thank you to the player who reported it.

### 1.1.2 — 2026-11-09

Fixes the game closing unexpectedly on some Apple Watch models. Each table now uses far less memory, so the game runs smoothly on older watches too.

### 1.1 — 2026-11-06

New table: CLOCKWORK. Its dial tells the real time, the second hand is in play, and after dark the dial glows. It comes second on the table list, ahead of Sugar Rush. Cosmic, Sugar Rush, Haunted and Treasure have all been repainted, from the rockets to the gummy bear. Also: the ball now sits centred on the spring, and SAVE reads properly in the outlanes.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-11-05

A small update with no changes to the tables. Thanks for playing, and good luck with those high scores!

### 1.0 — 2026-11-03

No release notes.
