Download WWII Propaganda Game Collection 1.0.0

My new WWII Propaganda Game Collection contains four trade stimulators and three bagatelle, six of which were used for propaganda purposes, to boost morale and gain support for each country’s war effort. They are an unknown part of pinball history.


Please read the Table Information for each game to learn about the games. I have provided what facts I know in a non-judgmental way. I abhor war, and feel that governments make enemies of common, honorable men, who become soldiers for personal reasons, or simply because their government demands they participate. Each country has a right to be proud of their heroes.

I have made these games as well as I could, because I feel this project was important. The 3 bagatelles use the same basic sounds, and same scoring. The 4 trade stimulators, by their nature, required some selected sounds tied to their themes, but still use similar features. The two Nazi games were distributed to children as boxed bagatelle. The one English bagatelle was either made shortly before or after WWII, but the Spitfire trade stimulator is from the WWII era.

The three US trade stimulators are quite inappropriate if viewed in today’s light, but were probably seen as wildly patriotic during the war. Since the governments involved are all on good terms currently, I felt the historic value outweighed the horrible messages the games evoked. I tried to find images of Japanese WWII games of this type, but I found none.

It’s my hope that each game will be played a few times for the experience, and then saved to your hard drive. I will have failed if any of these games, other than the neutral Sons Of The Air are seen to have real play value. This is my way of working for peace.
