Story:You’ll flip out over the coolest, fastest, most innovative quicksilver ball-basher in the known universe! Across five savage, fully-animated tables, from the ricochet riot of Firestorm to the intense overload of Duke Nukem, Balls of Steel delivers all the authentic gravitational pyrotechnics of real pinball. View all the tables at once or get close for some whiplash scrolling action! Go gonzo with the 5 ball multi-ball mayhem! Squash scampering aliens to bloody oblivion! Hit rails, flippers, pops, sinkholes, targets, magnetic flippers, ramps, the 'cyclotron' ball accelerator -- every conceivable pinball feature in all its glory! Its authentic pinball action -- whiplash fast and finger-burning good! And hey, if it’s good enough for Duke... then it’s good for you!
Balls of Steel is realistic, first and foremost, with real physics behind the ball movement and table obstacles. Each table behaves like you'd expect it to. On top of that, there are many special effects and table animations. Rock out to event-triggered music, and go wild about characters that speak during the gameplay, to you and to each other. Balls of Steel! More tables! More Duke! More balls!Show more

I still have the CD of this game, though it won't run on current versions of Windows. It is a great Pinball game, with 4 or 5 different themed tables that are fully animated. Each table is unique and offers a different style of table to play on. The tables play very well, without any issues. I've played different pinball video games over the years, but none have ever come close to this one. I would love to have the ability to play this game again, whether as a digital version that is updated for newer Windows versions, or a patch to fix it for my CD copy. Anyone who likes pinball games will probably love this game.
No kidding if it becomes true. Since childhood in the 90s and 00s, this game was run on our first computers. After the night, dad played, and I looked secretly instead of sleeping. Now there are great difficulties to play on new equipment - and I would certainly be stuck for many hours. The table with Duke rules, in addition to the original voice - something beautiful!
I've been playing this game with my mum and my brother since it came out, I still have the CD for it, though unfortunately I can't get it to run on modern operating systems. My favourite table isn't in the Steam version, which is the Duke Nukem table The game has great physics that hold up even today and it's not prone to being unfair or having janky physics It's a wonderful game, and I'd hate to see it lost.
