• TIPS AND TRICKS -

SELECTING GAME MODE: After starting a game, you have a choice of 'Regular' or
'Novice' mode. 'Regular' is the normal 3-ball arrangement. 'Novice' is timed play; the player has 2-3 minutes when any drained balls are autoplunged, and after the 2-3 minutes expires, the game is over when the ball(s) on the field drains.
You can start a game in 'League' mode by holding the left flipper button in while starting a game, and 'Wizard"' mode by holding the right flipper button in.
NOTE: If the pinball machine is set to free play, you may NOT get the
'Novice' mode.
