Dream Pinball 3D is a pinball simulation game developed by TopWare and published by SouthPeak Games for the Wii, Nintendo DS and Microsoft Windows, first released in North America on the 22nd of April 2008. Dream Pinball 3D features six tables to play on, each with a distinct theme, including a medieval table, an aquatic table, a monsters (zombies and vampires mostly) table, and a dinosaurs table. Apart from the different visual styles, each of these tables pose a different challenge because of their varying flipper, ramp, and bumper positions.^[1]
