Sonic Spinball — About this game
Robotnik has turned an island volcano into a robot factory guarded by a pinball security system. Sonic becomes the ball, bouncing between bumpers and targets while searching for Emeralds and freeing his animal friends. Collect all the Emeralds in a level to reach its boss, then earn a bonus stage by winning the battle. You can also steer Sonic in motion and jump when standing. Options change the flipper layout, difficulty and continues, so check the controls before launching into the first table.
