Play Microsoft Pinball Online
Launch the silver ball, control the flippers, hit targets and bumpers, complete missions, and keep the ball alive in this portable pinball experience.
Microsoft Pinball was a Game Boy Color release from 2000, developed by MGS and published by Microsoft. It arrived late in the handheld's life, offering a portable version of the classic Windows pinball experience many already knew. The game translated the familiar Space Cadet table into a form that fit in your pocket, a straightforward adaptation without much fuss.
You control the flippers, launching the silver ball into play and keeping it alive as long as possible. The main goal is to score points by hitting bumpers, ramps, and targets; completing mission objectives like launching probes or destroying spy satellites boosts your total. Key mechanics include using the nudge feature to subtly influence the ball's path (though overdoing it causes a tilt and ends your turn) and activating multiball for chaotic scoring opportunities. The pacing is methodical, with a steep difficulty curve that punishes mistimed shots. It feels tense and physical, like you're really fighting to keep the ball in play against the pull of gravity.
