Crüe Ball is a 1992 pinball video game developed by Electronic Arts for the Mega Drive/Genesis. It was based around the glam metal band Mötley Crüe and featured three Crüe songs; Dr. Feelgood, Live Wire and Home Sweet Home. The game's soundtrack by Brian Schmidt features heavy metal-style music.

The game's prototype name was Twisted Flipper.

This game was designed by two people who actually worked on pinball games: Mark Sprenger (artist for such games as 1984's Space Shuttle and 1986's High Speed) and Brian Schmidt (composer for Black Knight 2000 and various pinball games by Data East Pinball / Sega Pinball {now Stern Pinball, Inc.}).

On August 17, 2007, the game's soundtrack featured heavily into an episode of Wrestlecrap Radio, hosted by RD Reynolds and Blade Braxton.
