Scoring Exploit: There is a known scoring exploit on the default ROM called the Harem-Genie Stack where the Harem MB frenzy or the 3X Lightning Lamp can be brought into the 2nd phase of Rescue the Princess wizard mode. Because of this TOTAN is best left out of competitive tournament play unless a custom ROM has been installed to address this.
Pinball Primer Strategy: Start Lightning Lamp 7 times to boost the spin value. Use Make a wish to select 3X Lightning Lamp, which boosts the Lamp spin value to 600K/spin. Spam the lamp on repeat.
Skill: Plunge to the hole that corresponds to the basket with the snake in it, shown on the display
Super Skill: After skill shot, one-time the ramp for the Super Skill shot

Sinbad and the Rocs: shoot the left orbit to hit a bumper
Ali Baba: Spell SESAME by collecting letters at the lower left standup targets or the targets behind the lamp
