About

Cosmic Pinball Arcade

Read full description

Cosmic Pinball Arcade is a fast little space pinball game you can pick up for one round and rage-play for an hour. Pull the plunger, launch the ball into orbit, and work the flippers to keep it alive. Smash bricks, ricochet off planets, and stack combos to send your score through the roof. WHAT YOU'RE IN FOR • Real pinball feel. Pull, release, and flip! • Chain hits together for combo multipliers that snowball fast. • Get abducted by a UFO and come out the other side ON FIRE, phasing straight through bricks. • Trigger power-ups: Supernova, Shock Wave, and Slow Time to bail yourself out of a bad bounce. • Wake up the planets: meteor showers, volcanic eruptions, moon rushes, and more. • One high score. One goal. Beat it! Every launch plays out differently, so no two rounds feel the same. Miss the flip and you're done, line it up and the combos just keep coming. No sign-ups. No timers telling you to come back. Just launch and play.
