Callouts:
- Multiball should be your priority. Light locks by shooting each ramp once for GUM-BALL, lock balls at the lock shot in the upper right.
- Shoot the left ramp to start multiball when lit, not the lock shot. And make sure two balls are locked first for a higher jackpot value!
- During multiball, shoot the Piano to collect jackpots, and the Camera to relight them.
- There is no ball saver - but there is a relight. Multiball is hard! Try to keep control and line up your shots carefully.
- GUM-BALL also lights Gumballs at the right loop. They’re worth good points, pick them off when lit.
- The Powerball - a ceramic ball - will either be in the Gumball machine or in the drain. When put into play, put it back into the right orbit to start a lucrative multiball, called Powerball Mania:
- Shoot the top hole of the Powerfield - accessed by the right ramp - to award a huge jackpot.
- The Powerfield has “magna-flippers” which are basically impulse magnets you control with the flipper buttons. Use them to fling the ball into the top hole.
- Powerball Mania points are awarded in bonus - don’t tilt!
- Door Panels (modes) are awarded at the Piano and at the Slot Machine. Light them by shooting the right ramp and left ramp, respectively.
- Most door panels are either too dangerous or not worth enough to really aim for. Some just light things, though, which is nice - but modes are usually ignorable.
- All mode points are awarded in bonus - if you had a good mode, don’t tilt!
