BEMPU is played with each player’s flippers positioned on the corners of a polygonal arena, an octagon for 8 players, hexagon for 6 players and a square for 4 players. Pinballs roll down the arena from the center toward the player’s flippers. Players use their flippers to prevent the pinballs from falling down their drains and to knock pinballs into game objects to score points.

Players each have a color, and pinballs hit by a particular player’s flippers are tagged that player’s color. When a pinball is tagged a player’s color, it scores points for that player. The various game objects move around the arena with their own unique dynamic behavior. Thus, the game is different every time it’s played.

There are preset game modes with different objects as the game starts and different win conditions. The end conditions are when time runs out, when a player reaches a set score, or when there are no pinballs remaining. The winner is the player with the highest score when the end of the round.
