HISTORY OF 3D PINBALL

3D Pinball is a pinball simulator published by Mastertronic Plus in 1989 for the ZX Spectrum.

This virtual pinball doesn't need the coins you've saved up during the week. Crush your flippers until the scoreboard smokes!

How to play 3D Pinball

Playing pinball is very simple: All you have to worry about is keeping the ball in play for as long as possible, while increasing your score as much as you can. It doesn't matter if we go overboard hitting our flippers, because this time the machine won't penalise us with the dreaded TILT!

You have 8 balls to achieve your goal, so if you play with a cool head and a bit of tact the points will fall one after the other without ceasing. You don't just have to hit the ball as it comes, you can stop it and take a precision shot at the highest scoring areas. The trick is to accumulate points on the dials and then release them via the bonus trap door, something only reserved for true pinball masters.
