About the game

What you do in a play session

Super-Skill Pinball: Holiday Special is the Christmas-themed version of the already fun board game pinball simulator. It features three tables inspired by holiday movie classics: *Elf*, *National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation*, and *A Christmas Story*. Each table offers unique mechanics that capture the films' essence — from following Buddy to the North Pole in *Elf* to chasing a Christmas bonus in *Christmas Vacation*. The game keeps the roll-and-write simplicity: roll dice, mark results on your sheet, and aim for high scores like in a real pinball machine. The *bingo* mechanic kicks in when you complete table sections, unlocking special rewards. It's fast, thematic, and perfect for solo play or with up to 4 friends during the holidays. Don't worry if you're new to the original game — you'll grasp the rules in minutes.
