Pin Pong

About

Pin Pong is a straightforward pinball simulation that strips the genre to its basics. Players control flippers on a black-and-white table, keeping a digital ball in play and earning points through collisions and targets. The physics feel rudimentary by today's standards but capture the addictive rhythm of pinball. Simple visuals and scoring keep the focus on reflex-based gameplay. As the first pinball video game, it holds a unique place in history. Released in 1974 by Atari developers Terry Niksch and Harold Lee, it proved digital pinball's potential. Its simplicity laid the groundwork for later, more complex versions. Casual players will appreciate its low demands while still delivering satisfying near-misses and sudden losses.
