The Basics
Peggle is played on a Peggle board. The majority of the board is taken up by an array of pegs. At the top of the board is a Launcher, which you control. You aim the Launcher by moving the mouse cursor, and you fire it by clicking the left mouse button. Firing the Launcher shoots a Peggle ball that bounces around the board lighting up each peg it hits until falling off the bottom of the board. The lit pegs then disappear and you can take another shot.
You begin each level with ten balls. Light up the 25 orange pegs scattered randomly around the board to complete the level and achieve Extreme Fever.
Controls
The controls for Peggle are simple: move your mouse cursor to the point where you want the ball to go. The Launcher will automatically aim to follow your mouse cursor.
Click the left mouse button to fire a Peggle ball. The ball will head to where the tip of the cursor was when you clicked.
You can hold down the right mouse button any time the ball is not in play to speed up the motion of the Free Ball Bucket and any moving pegs. This is helpful when waiting for moving objects.
You can also use the mouse wheel or the left and right arrow keys to make small angle adjustments. This is useful for getting the exact shot that you want. Hitting the Enter key will fire the ball.
Pegs
Pegs can be round or rectangular. If rectangular, they are sometimes called bricks.
Ball-O-Tron
On the left side of the Peggle board is the Ball-o-Tron. The number at the top of the Ball-o-Tron shows how many balls you have left, and the balls themselves sit in the hopper underneath. You begin each level with 10 balls: 9 in the Ball-o-Tron and one pre-loaded in the Launcher at the top of the screen.
Fevermeter
On the right side of the Peggle board is the Fevermeter. As you eliminate orange pegs, the Fevemeter lights up. As you hit certain points on the Fevermeter, a score multiplier takes effect that increases the point value of your pegs. For a more detailed description of the score multiplier, see Shot Scores in the Scoring section below.
Free Balls
Though you begin each level with 10 balls, there are several ways to earn Free Balls during play.
Extreme Fever
Hitting the last orange peg on a level completes the level and activates Extreme Fever. The screen zooms in on the ball, time slows down, and the words "Extreme Fever" zestfully appear. You can click the left mouse button to end slow-motion mode and return to normal speed.
Blue and green pegs struck after Fever has been activated earn 1000 points each. Hitting a purple peg after Fever earns 10,000 points.
After activating Fever, the ball will continue on its way until falling into one of five bonus point areas that appear on the bottom of the board; from left to right their values are 10,000, 50,000, 100,000, 50,000 and 10,000 points.
Ultra Extreme Fever
If you clear all the pegs on a level you will activate Ultra Extreme Fever. In that case all the five bonus point areas will award 100,000 points, and you will win a special All Pegs Cleared ribbon for that level. Rumor has it that a secret rank of Peggle Mastery awaits one who can get All Pegs Cleared ribbons for every Peggle board.
Peggle Masters and Magic Powers
The Masters watch your play from above the Launcher, and each of them has a special Magic Power that is activated when you hit the green peg. Some Magic Powers activate immediately, while others take effect on your next shot. The number above the Peggle Master's head shows how many shots remain on the Magic Power.
Style Shots
Certain kinds of cool shots will earn special recognition and bonus points. These bonus points add to your overall level score but do not add directly to your shot score (and thus do not help in earning a Free Ball). However, they do contribute to your score in Duel Mode as well as towards the scoring Challenges. All style shots require that you hit at least one peg.
Replays
Instant replays are useful for reliving your favorite shots and showing them to your friends and family over and over again.
Click the Instant Replay button on the bottom right of the screen to see a replay of your last shot. Right-click the Instant Replay button to enable an advanced mode in which you can replay all shots for a game.
During a replay you can hold down the left mouse button in the play area to activate slow motion. Holding down the right mouse button will activate fast forward.
You can save replays and view them later. During the replay, click the Save button on the lower right side of the screen. This will bring up a dialog box that allows you to enter a name for the shot. When you're done watching your replay, click the Done button on the lower right corner of the screen. To view saved replays, click the Replay button on the Main Menu.
You can e-mail friends your saved shots and receive saved shots from your friends. To view them, open the Replays and then click the Open Folder Button. This will open a folder and will show you the replay installation location. You can attach replays to e-mails from this folder, and you can drop replays from your friends into this folder. View them by clicking the Replay button on the Main Menu.
