One of the earliest games to be featured on Origin's On the House program is back for another run, as EA is once again giving away the award-winning casual game by PopCap Games, Peggle.

If you've never heard of Peggle, prepared to get addicted. Peggle is the game in which you launch bouncy balls at red orbs and attempt to knock them all out before you run out of balls. It doesn't sound too fun but once you get started playing, you won't want to stop! Peggle Nights is essentially the same game, with a nighttime setting. Although the classic Peggle game was retired by PopCap Games in 2017, you can download a free trial of Peggle Deluxe through Pogo. The game is free for one hour after which you can choose to buy it if you like. The classic Peggle game is available from Origin, too, possibly at a cheaper price than Pogo.
The gameplay revolves around clearing a selection of orange pegs that are scattered among blue pegs throughout a board. You are given 10 balls to achieve this task, but as pegs hit by the shooting ball are cleared off the board after each shot, the overall objective becomes more difficult as time goes on.
There are also special power-ups that you can activate by hitting green pegs, which trigger events such as spawning two balls, activating pinball flippers on the bottom of the board for bouncing back balls, and more. In total, the game has 75 challenges to tackle.
Peggle is now available to claim free of charge via the Origin On the House page and all you need to grab it is an account on the platform. As always, there is no end date attached to the promotion, but judging by previous giveaways, it should run for at least a month. As for system requirements, if your computer was made anytime in the last 15 years, the game should run without any hiccups.
