PopCap has probably already made ten times what it cost them to build Peggle. This means that, while they wouldn't turn it down, they don't need your money. Considering however that Peggle is pretty much universally liked (though notably not 'beloved'), you can bet that it's worth checking out.
Peggle has more agency than Pachinko, but less than Pinball. Players shoot a ball from the top of the screen, bouncing it off pegs and blocks, trying to collide it with all the orange pegs before they run out of shots. However, pegs and blocks disappear whenever they are hit by the player's ball, meaning that options get fewer and choices get harder as the game wears on. Making everything harder is fact that no human being could possibly predict how a ball is going to bounce past the first two ricochets, which makes whether you win or lose pretty random in the grand scheme of things.
