There are lots of special items: speed-up, power-up, kill everything, invulnerability. Also, there are lots of secrets and dozens of items that can only be seen if things are done in a certain order.

FAQ

What does it cost to play?

Playcard: 10 kr.
Arcade: 1 Credit = 2 kr to play per person per game.
Pinball: 2 Credits = 4 kr per person per game.

We kept the 80s prices and recommend a Playcard with 25 credits to begin with for 60 kr. You are also welcome to share it with your group. Arcade & Pinball are ol’skool hardcore cool so a card per person is often the blockbuster choice.

What if I don’t use all credits?

The card is yours and as “practice makes perfect”, you are welcome to keep the card and use it again next time.

Superb! I bet you are soon ready for a highscore too. Don’t forget to submit it.

SUBMIT SCORE

HOW TO START

HOW TO PLAY PINBALL

SCOUT

Look to see if there is a “Skill Shot” to be made for extra bonus.

PLUNGE

Now start by plunging the ball.

The plunger is often a stick with a bouncer, but may sometimes also be activated by pressing a button.

TURNBASED

Players take turns.

But be aware, sometimes a player has achieved an extra ball or granted “shoot again”.

Look at the display, it will show or lit-up which player gets to plunge.

BALL SAVED

Ball Saved is added to some pinball tables. It makes sure, that the pinball player gets another chance if the ball went out too fast. However, the skill shoot might not be active anymore.

TILT

You can nudge the machine which is a part of playing a mechanical game such as pinball. But if you do it too much or too hard then TILT will appear and the ball including its added bonus will be lost. In rare occasions SLAM TILT is activated and the whole game resets and you might consider to cool down at the bar.

EXTRA FREE GAME

When the game is over you might see the machine displaying random number. One of you, has been given a number if that matches the number that the machine lands on – then you get another credit on that pinball table for free.

ATTRACTION SOUND

Pinball machines might try to flirt with you when “attraction sound” is turned on. It is simply just showing off.

QUICK INFO

Keep the ball rolling.
if something blinks, hit it!
Look for a “Ball Lock”.
Look for multioball.
You often get between 3 – 5 balls per credit/game.
Extra ball can be achieved and then you will get an extra ball.

GAME INFO

Plunger:
Flipper: 1987
Popbumber: 7 (each with 4 rounds)
Maximum number of Players: 2
Number of Simultaneous Players: 1 (take turns)

HELP

If ball gets stuck: Gently nudge the machine. Hopefully it is possible to get the ball free without experiencing TILT.
