1968 Bally Safari Pinball Machine
1968 Bally Safari Pinball Machine
The "Safari" pinball machine, released by Bally Manufacturing Co. in May 1968, is a two-player, electro-mechanical game with a safari and hunting theme. Designed by Ted Zale, it features two flippers, three pop bumpers, four mushroom bumpers, and a passive bumper situated between the flippers. Notably, the machine lacks traditional slingshots, opting instead for mushroom bumpers to influence ball movement.
UTAD.
Irrelevant, but mostly Balanced
Very High
A total flailure. You’ll rarely be able to get any kind of ball control, so just focus on UTAD, with grazing hits off the mushroom bumpers where possible, and through the upper right gate if you can manage it. As indicated at the top of the machine, the Skill Shot is to hit the top sling to light the center lane, then have the ball go in that lane.
