Play Super Pinball - Behind the Mask (Europe) Online Free

Super Pinball: Behind the Mask is a 1994 pinball simulation game developed by Japanese studio KAZe for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES). It features three themed tables: clown-themed Jolly Joker, pirate-themed Blackbeard and Ironmen, and fantasy-themed Wizard. Each table uses a tilted 3D view that displays the full playfield on screen without scrolling. The game supports single-player and up to four-player turn-based multiplayer, with two modes: Competition and Conquest. In Competition mode, players can freely choose any table to play; in Conquest mode, players must challenge each table in sequence, unlocking the next one after scoring over 100 million points. It also includes directional tilt functionality, controllable via all buttons on the controller. The soundtrack was composed by Yusuke Takahama, designed to create an authentic pinball atmosphere. However, the game received mixed reviews upon release. GamePro criticized it for mimicking early pinball machines and lacking imagination, noting "the springs, flippers, and bonus markers are too small, and the board angle will make you squint the whole time." Electronic Gaming Monthly gave it a 6.4/10, stating "this might be the prettiest home pinball game yet, but that's about it. The gameplay gets very repetitive and boring." Despite these criticisms, Super Pinball: Behind the Mask still attracts some players with its authentic pinball experience and varied game modes, making it a worthwhile pinball simulation to try on the SNES platform.
