Alien Crush is a 1990 pinball game developed for the TurboGrafx-16 and PC platforms. The game combines traditional pinball mechanics with a sci-fi horror theme, creating a unique experience within the pinball genre. Players aim to score points by hitting various bumpers, ramps, and targets designed as alien creatures and futuristic technology.
The main objective in Alien Crush is to achieve the highest score possible by activating special features and uncovering hidden areas on a two-tiered pinball table. The pace is fast and dynamic, encouraging precision and quick reflexes. What sets this game apart is its distinctive alien-themed table design, which integrates eerie sound effects and atmospheric visuals to enhance the gameplay experience.
A unique mechanic in Alien Crush is the use of multi-level playfields, allowing the ball to move between two separate areas, which was innovative for pinball games at the time. This feature, combined with the science fiction motif, distinguishes Alien Crush within the TurboGrafx-16 library and among pinball titles of the early 1990s.
