Stern Pinball has developed an officially licensed pinball machine themed for Shrek, the star ogre of DreamWorks animated films.
The main feature of Shrek Pinball is Donkey's mini-playfield, a small pinball playfield that sits in the upper right hand corner. It has mini-flippers that the player controls with the regular flipper buttons when the game is in 'Donkey mini-playfield' mode. The mini-playfield has ramps and targets to shoot at while an actual Donkey figurine spins in front of the mini-playfield.
Additional features on the game include: figurines of five Shrek characters, including Shrek, Donkey, Puss in Boots, Princess Fiona and Gingy. A mirror sculpture of Prince Charming sits in the center of the playfield and can be struck by the pinball. Two captive pinballs spell out P-I-N-B-A-L-L when hit; and Shrek also includes plenty of exciting multi-ball action.
The machine also features original art from artist John Youssi, who was recently elected into the Pinball Hall of Fame.
