It’s a rare accomplishment when a game manages to require an equal amount of luck and skill at the same time. Peggle Nights, the second installment of the popular Peggle series, does just that, which is probably why the game is so infuriatingly addictive. It’s much like the game of pachinko except that you initially have the opportunity to shoot the ball with a certain amount of control, rather than shooting it up into the board randomly and crossing your fingers that it’ll land in auspicious places. With Peggle Nights you can accurately aim and hit some of the targets to a degree, but after a while you must rely on luck for the balls to land on more targets or bonus pegs. This combination of game play will surprise you.
