KISS Pinball is an arcade pinball simulator developed by Wildfire Studios and released for the PlayStation in 2001. Rather than recreating a physical machine, it features two distinct original tables themed around the legendary rock band. In “Last Stop Oblivion,” your goal is to rack up KISS points to upgrade your tour transport and unlock new concert locations. The second table, “Netherworld,” has a darker, mystical theme where you must battle the Dark Lord, save lost souls, and defeat his minions. The game includes multiple difficulty tiers, from a forgiving Novice mode with ball savers to a strict Tournament mode.
How to Play
Select your table and difficulty, then try to achieve the highest score possible without losing all your pinballs. As a PlayStation title playing in the browser, the default controls are:
- D-pad (Arrow keys): Nudge the table or navigate menus.
- L1 / R1 (Q / E keys): Operate the left and right flippers.
- Cross [X] Button (Z key): Launch the ball and make selections.
- Start (Enter): Start the game or pause.
- Select (Shift): Insert credits or skip screens.
Tips
- Start on Novice or Regular: If you’re learning a table’s layout, Novice gives you 5 balls and an active ball saver at the start, making it much easier to practice the harder shots.
- Focus on the Objectives: Don’t just flip blindly. On Last Stop Oblivion, aim for the ramps and targets that reward KISS points, as upgrading your transport is key to high scores. On Netherworld, prioritize hitting the targets required to damage the Dark Lord.
