Plinko is a one-screen physics game built on the oldest gambling instinct: drop a ball, watch chaos turn it into a number. A drag at the top picks the column. A release lets gravity take over. The ball clatters down through twelve rows of pegs, every collision rolling a small dice on which way it goes next, and lands in one of nine multiplier slots at the bottom. Edges pay ×200. The center pays ×1. You get ten balls.
The game is half skill and half surrender. You can tell exactly where the ball will start — your finger is on it — but the moment it hits the first peg, your aim becomes a probability cloud instead of a destination. Aim down the middle and the ball almost always settles in the cheap slots. Aim at an edge and you give it a real shot at the jackpot, but a single unlucky bounce sends it skidding across to the other side. Reading the spread of pegs and choosing how greedy to be is the entire game.
Plinko looks simple because it is. There are no levels, no boss, no skill trees. Each ball is its own small drama: a launch, ten seconds of clatter, a number. Big jackpot? Quiet center? The next ball is already half-aimed. The pleasure is the sound of a peg cascade and the second of suspense at the bottom row, when the ball is heading for a slot and you don't yet know which one.
Plinko is a physics-based arcade game where you drop a ball from the top of a board, it bounces randomly through a triangular grid of pegs, and lands in one of nine multiplier slots at the bottom. Edge slots pay ×200, the center pays ×1. You get ten balls per round.
Touch or click anywhere along the top of the board. The aim cursor follows your finger as you drag. When you release, the ball drops from wherever you released. You can also use ←/→/A/D to nudge the aim and Space/Enter to drop.
No — and that's the point. The ball's path depends on every peg it hits, and pegs randomize each bounce. You can shift the probability toward one side by aiming there, but the result is always uncertain.
Plinko is a Galton board — each peg is roughly a coin flip on which way the ball goes, and many coin flips average out toward the center. The middle slots are the most likely outcomes, which is why the multiplier there is lowest.
Each ball adds its slot's multiplier to your total score. After all ten balls have landed, your round total is locked in. If it beats your previous best, the new best is saved in your browser.
Yes — your best round total is saved in your browser's local storage on this device. It survives reloads but resets if you clear site data or switch browsers.
Yes. Plinko is built mobile-first: portrait orientation, one-thumb play, no keyboard required. Drag along the top to aim, lift your finger to drop.
You have to press the Play button to start a round. Once you're playing, tapping the board sets your aim and drops a ball. This is intentional — it lets you scroll past the game on mobile before starting.
