Overview
Spin Ball Vectrex Screenshot
Spin Ball is a pinball simlulation game released for the Vectrex in 1983. The game features a variety of usual pinball elements including bumpers, spinners, and drop targets which earn points when the ball hits them. Bonus points can be earned by hitting certain targets as well as ball savers which temporarily block the lanes at the side of the screen. From time to time a ball splitter will appear which will enable multiball play. Players begin the game with five balls; during the game, the joystick is used to control the plunger to put the ball into play or to shake the table (be careful not to tilt!). The buttons control the flippers. When all five balls are lost, the game is over.
