You get three Holocron Shards per stage, and they are used to obtain Force Powers and Talents. Some stages are only mini-games which you can activate while playing some of the tables - these vary from shooting down ships in first person, to a lightsaber duel with Darth Vader. Each one has a different requirement - use only three balls, time limit, flipper usage limit, that kind of thing. Play through five Operations of increasing difficulty, which let you obtain Holocron Shards.

Then we have the main mode, the campaign. If you were playing Pinball FX3, you’d need to buy them each separately at £5-£8 each, so Star Wars Pinball being only priced at £24.99 saves you a bit of money. As I mentioned, there are 19 of them and you’re free to use whichever you like. Use Force Powers or Talents (more on those in a moment), or don’t, and try to score as high as you can on any of the tables.

You can play any of the 19 tables either by yourself, or hot seating with up to four friends. Occasionally there’ll be more than one ball, but usually you have three attempts to score as many points as possible.Īnd so it is, in the single player mode. If you’ve played a digital pinball game, then you know the score - two buttons to flip flippers (though you can use the touch screen in this instance) to ensure the shiny ball doesn’t go down the hole, whilst trying to score as many points as possible. Pinball, arguably one of the simplest types of game around, is something that Zen Studios have made their name in with tables based on various Marvel properties, Universal movies, The Walking Dead… But admittedly mainly Star Wars. It’s such a weird thing when you get something that has such a rich and varied history, backstory, side stories and colour - and decide to make a pinball game out of it.
