❗️Tilt ends game

Draining: If possible, only drain down the 3 center lanes. You get 200 points for draining down all three (un-lighting the lanes).

Strategy

Concentrate on hitting lit bumpers to grind out a score

Skill Shot

Try to light a set of colored bumpers by plunging into one of the two smaller, passive bumpers at the top.

Key Rules

Shoot lit bumpers, of which only one set (yellow or green) will be lit at a time, rotating on most switch hits.

In addition to the upper passive pops lighting the pop bumpers:

  • the rubber bumper above the left flipper lights the yellow pops

  • the rubber bumper above the right flipper lights the green pops

The center top lane spots a card (Ten-to-Ace)

The other five lane award the designated card at the lane

Collecting any card scores 50 points. Collecting all awards a special (worth 0 points)
