Pinball In this simple pinball game, written in BASIC, you have one table. You earn basic points for bouncing on items, but you must hit the letters D-R-A-G-O-N in order to raise your bonus multiplier. Hitting the red parts jutting out from the left and right sides of the table makes reconfigures the part of the table below the letters, which will alter the ball's direction when entering the letter channel. In the upper right corner, there is a channel filled with white colour, and when all the white colour has been bounced away, you earn your bonus instantly. For every 2500 points, you earn an extra ball.

The game uses a "semigraphics" mode, forfeiting all use of detailed graphics, and makes the ball's movement very jaggy. [source:mobygames]
