Pinball Illusions is an Amiga and DOS pinball video game developed by Digital Illusions CE in 1995 as a sequel of Pinball Fantasies and Pinball Dreams.

The original Amiga release featured three tables. The PC CD version added a fourth, "The Vikings" (this was written for the Amiga version but not considered good enough for inclusion). This was the first version of the series to feature more than 1 ball in play at a time (known as 'multiball'), and the first to be released for AGA based Amigas. The game also marks its nationality as a Swedish product in "The Vikings" table (at the top left corner).

The game was ranked the 23rd best game of all time by Amiga Power.[1]

Digital Illusions used the four tables from this game to produce True Pinball on the Sega Saturn and Sony PlayStation, which presented the tables in a more realistic perspective.
