[edit] Gameplay

Players are initially given the choice of three classic pinball tables amongst the eleven set out in a virtual arcade. These three - Genie, El Dorado and Victory - are set to free play, with the others requiring the player to earn specific amounts of virtual credits to enable play on the other tables. Free play mode for the other tables can be achieved by completing table goals.

When a game begins, the player is given control of the plunger and flippers and the ability to tilt the table. Players can earn rewards such as free play by completing specific goals accessible via the in-game menu.
