Terminator is a pinball game released by Stern in the late 1980s, contemporaneous with other major releases like Adam's Family and Getaway. Designed by Steve Richie, it was notable for pioneering dot matrix display implementation that influenced subsequent games like Slugfest. The game became a significant title in competitive pinball during the early competitive era and has maintained relevance in the homebrew community, with components like its ramp being adapted for other games.
