Feverish Metal Balls It's ironic--the only cure for fever is more fever. Armed with a small metal ball shooter and your wits, your job in Peggle is to take on the legion hordes of pegs that stand between you and victory or a high score. Peggle is an unusual game for sure, but possibly one of the most addictive I've ever played, and definitely an interesting study in where gaming is headed.
To win a level, a Peggle master must shoot a limited supply of balls at an array of pegs to clear a number of randomly-marked orange pegs. Along the way there are bonuses, powerups, extra balls, and the sometimes-strategic-sometimes-random ball catcher to help you recycle your shots. Beware though, it won't always be easy even with the help of your animal friends. As time goes on the boards become filled with traps, pegs that move, and unique geography to block access to important locations on the board.
So simple, yet so addicting. Peggle is a beautiful blend of skill and luck that leaves you feeling in control of situations that you aren't in control of at all. The path of the ball is deterministic--there is little random chance in Peggle--but you'll need a PHD in "bouncy metal ball" math to accurately predict where it's headed beyond the first few ricochets. As such, a good but lucky shot can often make or break your game while making you feel in control of it. This is how Peggle gets power over you!
I've seen this game catch on among many who aren't traditionally into games. Moms, fathers, grandfathers, the little sister that thinks that games are for boys. Popcap really did a good job of making something that just about everyone can get involved in. Not only does it draw in the unusual crowd just mentioned, but I've noticed it has been a time-draining guilty pleasure of many in the hardcore gaming crowd as well.
