Super Pinball: Behind the Mask

About

Super Pinball: Behind the Mask turns your SNES into a pinball machine with three distinct tables. Each table, clown-themed, pirate-themed, and fantasy-themed, uses a tilted 3D perspective to show the whole playfield at once. You control flippers, ramps, and targets while chasing high scores in two modes. Competition lets you battle in tournaments. Conquest requires clearing each table by hitting a 100 million point threshold. Nudge the ball in any direction using the D-pad buttons for precise adjustments. The game’s tilted view keeps everything visible without scrolling a thing. Giant marquees and bonus alerts dominate the screen during plays, adding urgency. Up to four players can take turns in hotseat matches, though the single-player focus remains strong. Launched in 1994, it still feels brisk and responsive. The tables have distinct layouts and challenges that keep replays fresh. It’s a straightforward pinball fix that still clicks after all these years.
