Peggle Deluxe (PC)

Video game developers PopCap Games are to puzzle game enthusiasts what Elvis Presley was to music, what Tom Baker was to Doctor Who, what biscuits are to tea. That is to say they are seriously awesome. They are the minds behind such classics as Bejeweled, Bookworm, Feeding Frenzy and Zuma. With its super addictive qualities, Bejeweled alone makes them more powerful than twelve Decepticon US senators. Peggle is one of the weapons in their all-conquering arsenal. Let's hope it has mercy on us. Peggle is inspired by the Japanese game of 'pachinko'. The concept behind pachinko is similar to pinball, except the machines stand vertically and they have grids of pegs ...  Read the complete review

If you've ever whiled away hours and hours playing a game which has got you hooked as you try to beat your high score, then you will know eactly what it is like playing this game!!! The gameplay is so simple anybody can play, it is just a case of setting the direction a small ball is fired and attempt to hit the pegs to clear the level before you run out of balls. It's this simplicity which makes the game so addictive, there are no button combos to learn, no special moves to master, and as such when you just miss out on your highscore, you know that next time you might just be able to do it so you try again....and again and again and again until you ...  Read the complete review

Having had to stop working full-time due to parkinson's I occasionally find that I really am not interested in doing much of anything productive (I get very tired) and because I am keen to keep my mind and fingers nimble I have acquired/downloaded a few games for the PC which I have played from time to time.

HOW TO PLAY The game is played very simply by using the mouse to move the ...  Read the complete review

When me and my friend came back from a long plane journey and were completely jet-lagged and lethargic and 4pm felt like breakfast time, She suggested we download Peggle and play it in bed. She described it as "this downloadable game that is so addictive". That was the first time I'd heard of that game and I was expecting to see some crude, exploitative Flash game that became infamous for all the wrong reasons... such is the nature of a lot of these sudden internet phenomena. Of course my prejudice was not justified in this case. Peggle is a downloadable game and quite a cheap one to buy if you like the trial, but the quality of production is the ...  Read the complete review

Peggle is a downladable game for the PC, also the xbox 360, ipod and Nintendo ds. This game is made by the company PopCap Games. Peggle is a VERY addictive game where you have to destroy orange pegs with a small ball. The screen is filled with blue pegs (mainly blue) and the orange ones. To complete a stage you have to get rid of all the orange pegs with the allotted amount of balls given. It sounds very boring but it really isn't, and is a lot of fun. The ball launcher is situated at the top middle of the screen, and you have to aim your cannon to the pegs below. There is also a ball catcher at the bottom of the screen which slides ...  Read the complete review
