We review DC Super-Skill Pinball: Harley Quinn Ball, published by Wizkids Games. This iteration of the Super-Skill pinball system drops players into Gotham City.

Since its debut in 2020, Super-Skill Pinball: 4-Cade has had a steady stream of releases. Almost to the tune of 1 a year, we’ve gotten new tables and new themes. What started with just a simple pinball themed game, has branched off into some popular licenses such as Christmas-themed movies and Star Trek.

Apparently, veteran designer Geoff Engelstein isn’t done yet as today we are checking out the newest offering in the Super-SKill Pinball lineup, DC Super-Skill Pinball: Harley Quinn Ball. Get ready to take bad girl Harley Quinn on various outings as she has fun and causes trouble in Gotham City.

Each turn two six-sided dice are rolled and you can use one of those results to mark off a matching number space on your board, scoring your points (and sometimes special abilities). Then the ball usually drops down to a lower level. If it goes off the bottom of the board, the ball is out of play, and your round ends. Once you’ve used up all of your balls, your game ends. When all players are done, the player with the highest score is the pinball champ.

For the most part, the core gameplay of Super-Skill Pinball is the same as the previous iterations. You are rolling dice, crossing off things on your board, and scoring points. What sets each version of the game apart is the theme, and how it’s used on each of the tables.

If you are not interested in what the new tables are and are just curious how good DC Super-Skill Pinball: Harley Quinn Ball is, I’ve got good news for you. I’ve played almost every iteration of the game and this one is,
