Major characters include Chef, a large rubber Kenny, Kyle, Stan, and Cartman.

The game's age-appropriate content level can be adjusted between two settings: "PG-13" mode (which features mild language, bleeped-out expletives and bathroom humor), and the family-friendly "G" mode (which eliminates all profanity and bathroom humor).

For example, on the former setting, Kyle will utter "you bastards" after a successful "Kill Kenny" hurry up mode, which is replaced with "Rats!"

The family mode will also alter the match sequence which features Terrance & Phillip belching instead of farting.

Adult humor and explicit language are not part of both tables,[4] thus making the South Park Pinball pack the first and only South Park video game to be rated Everyone 10+ by the ESRB.
