Centaur is a pinball machine designed by Jim Patla and produced by Bally.

The game was inspired by the classic Bally's 1956 Balls-A-Poppin that was the first flipper pinball machine with multiball.

[3] The artwork of Centaur features black and white horror design with flashy red and yellow light.

The ultimate goal of the pinball machine is to destroy centaur - a half-man half-motorcycle creature.

[3] Reasons for the success of the game include its well made sound effects including speech, 5-balls multiball, a playfield magnet and fast but fair gameplay.
