Shaker motor inside cabinet for earthquake-like effects. Trough at top left of playfield hold eight balls. 13-ball multiball.

Historical Notes
Artist Marc Raneses told us that Jeff Busch did the backglass and playfield art. As Jeff's art assistant, Marc did the screen print production for the playfield and cabinet. He also did "some dots". Game requires the more expensive non-magnetizable balls to function properly. Per Orin Day, a 128x32 DMD was used for Apollo 13 and subsequent games. Previous games used 192x64 displays.
