Skee Ball

What Is Skee Ball?

Skee Ball is an online arcade game that was designed based on one concept: roll the ball up the ramp and drop it into a scoring hole. The further and smaller the hole, the higher the number of points you will score. One can learn it within a few seconds, but to achieve mastery requires actual accuracy and training.

This is an online version that retains the same core experience as the arcade machine. The regulations are the same, difficulty remains the same, and it remains as satisfying to get a hole of high value.

How to Play Skee Ball

In Skee Ball, you’re given a limited number of balls, so every shot matters. You place yourself in the right spot, select the appropriate amount of force and give the ball at the optimal time. Aim too low and it falls short; too strong and it bounces away.

Each shot is an option: it is either to be safe and get sure points or go to the goal and take the best holes of all and score big. It is all about timing, control and learning as one misses. Simple mechanics, pure skill.

Simple and Straightforward Controls

The controls are easy to learn and very close to how the real game feels.

• Arrow Keys – Move left or right to change your shot position
• Spacebar – Set power and release the ball

That’s all you need. The challenge isn’t in the buttons, it's in your timing.

Why Skee Ball Never Gets Old

Skee Ball stood the test of time since it is all skill. No upgrade, no power-up, no shortcut. Thou only, the ramp, and the holes at the top. Each round challenges you to shoot slightly better than the last be it clean shots or courageous point-blank. It is the right game to play in short bursts, or friendly score competitions, or to unwind playing a game that has no hurry.

Virtual, But Still Familiar

Although it is an electronic one, it still retains the essence of the arcade machine. The scoring map, the ascending, and the pacing are all well-known. Playing Skee Ball is an excellent form of fun when you cannot find a real machine anywhere.
