# CSI: Crime Scene Investigation

The "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" pinball machine, designed by Pat Lawlor and released by Stern Pinball in 2008, is based on the popular TV series of the same name. This machine features intricate gameplay mechanics, including a mechanical skull that loads pinballs into its eyes and a microscope mechanism that captures the ball on a magnet. Players can also engage with a Bullet scoop shot and a mini-flipper that adds unique challenges to the game. The machine includes original voiceovers from the show's character Dr. Al Robbins and uses sound effects and music directly from the series.
