A turn is ended when the ball either falls through the bottom of the stage, or is caught by an osculating bucket and thus saved for reuse. As the ball continues to bounce around the play area and hit more pegs the player receives more points. When a ball contacts a peg, said peg lights up and is added to a combo meter. The gameplay of Peggle consists of players firing balls from the top of the stage at multi-colored pegs.
Peggle combines game mechanics from the Japanese casino game Pachinko and the 1976 Atari arcade game Breakout. A port of the game was developed for the Zeebo by Vega Mobile. Peggle Deluxe is a 2D game from the popular website and developer PopCap Games.
