The origins of pinball are intertwined with the history of many other games. Games played outdoors by rolling balls or stones on a grass course eventually evolved into games played by hitting the balls with sticks and propelling them at targets.
These games led to indoor versions that could be played on a table, such as billiards, or on the floor of a pub, like bowling. The tabletop versions of these games became the ancestor of the modern pinball machine.
