==Versions and sequels== ''Peggle Extreme'' was packaged with the Windows version of ''[[The Orange Box]]'', featuring levels inspired by ''[[Half-Life 2]]'', ''[[Team Fortress 2]]'', and ''[[Portal (video game)|Portal]]''. It includes ten levels with one Peggle Master, and five Challenges.<ref name="peggleextremesteam">{{cite web|url=http://store.steampowered.com/app/3483/|title=Peggle Extreme on Steam|publisher=Steampowered.com|accessdate=2007-10-14}}</ref> ''Peggle Extreme'' was eventually made free to download for anyone with a [[Steam (content delivery)|Steam]] account.<ref name="peggleextremesteam" /> The game was developed in conjunction with [[Valve Corporation]] after PopCap's Tams learned that ''Peggle'' was played often at Valve's offices and that the company had helped to promote the game on Steam. PopCap proposed a version that would pay tribute to Valve's games, which Valve readily warmed up to, helping PopCap with its development, including providing graphical assets and artwork.<ref name="edge development"/> ''Peggle'' has been ported to [[Xbox Live Arcade]],<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.wired.com/gamelife/2008/01/peggle-coming-t/ | title = Peggle Coming to Xbox Live Arcade | publisher = ''[[Wired (magazine)|Wired]]'' | date = 2008-01-09 | accessdate = 2009-05-29 | first = Susan | last = Arendt }}</ref> the [[PlayStation Network]],<ref name="peggle ps3">{{cite web | url = http://www.gamerbytes.com/2009/11/peggle_out_on_psn_this_week_pe.php?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+gamerbytes+%28GamerBytes%29&utm_content=Google+Reader | title = PSN, XBLA: It's Peggle Mania This Week | first = Ryan | last = Langley | date = 2009-11-16 | accessdate= 2009-11-16 | publisher = [[Gamer Bytes]] }}</ref> the [[iPod]],<ref>{{cite web | url = http://wireless.ign.com/articles/842/842931p1.html | title = Peggle for iPod Review | publisher = [[IGN]] | first =Levi | last = Buchanan | date= 2007-12-07 | accessdate= 2009-06-12}}</ref> and the [[iPhone OS]].<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2347527,00.asp | title = Peggle (for iPhone OS) | date = 2009-05-21 | accessdate = 2009-05-29 | first = Daniel S. | last = Evans | publisher = ''[[PC Magazine]]''}}</ref> The Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network versions includes the "Peg Party" mode in which up to four players can compete simultaneously.

The minigame requires that the player continually bounce a ball with pinball-like bumpers to collect diamonds and extra balls.
