1 Introduction
Heighway Pinball was based in Merthyr Tydfil, South Wales, UK. Only two pinball titles were produced under the Heighway Pinball name: Full Throttle (2015) and Alien (2017). Heighway Pinball also produced a novelty game named Bacardi Cuba Libre (2014).
Heighway Pinball was dissolved and liquidated in early 2018, and many of the company's assets were transferred to / acquired by The Pinball Brothers company.
