*Contact*, released by Williams Electronics in May 1978, was the company's first wide-body pinball machine. Designed by Steve Kordek, the game incorporates a sci-fi theme with artwork by Christian Marche. The machine is notable for its four flippers and unique "dual-action" mechanism, allowing players to activate either the inner or all four flippers based on button pressure.
