About PegIdle
PegIdle is a casual indie game where you aim and shoot balls to clear pegs from a board. Each cleared board spawns a new one with varied peg types, and you can earn gold and prestige points to upgrade balls, buckets, and permanent abilities. The game offers over twenty balls, multiple peg varieties, and a suite of challenges across ten levels, all supported by Steam features like achievements and cloud saves.
01 / THE GUIDE
Balls and Upgrades
You start with a selection of balls and can purchase additional ones using gold earned in play. Each ball can be enhanced through upgrades that improve its performance.
Upgrades are bought with gold, which is also earned by dropping balls into a moving bucket. Both balls and the bucket have upgrade paths.
- Compare upgrade costs before spending gold.
- Try different ball types to see which fits your style.
