Notable Features

This game had playfield inserts near the flippers that lit for high Roto-target values so players who were looking at the flippers would be made aware when those high Roto-target values came around. Each player score matching at end of game awards 1 replay, or 10 replays awarded for both 1st and 2nd players matching or both 3rd and 4th players matching (operator adjustable). Maximum displayed point score is 1,999 points per player. Tilt penalty: game over.

Historical Notes

The backglass carries Gottlieb's famous phrase: Amusement Pinballs, as American as Baseball and Hot Dogs! A similar playfield layout can be found on the 1-player Gottlieb's 1958 'Rocket Ship' and the 2-player Gottlieb's 1959 'Atlas'.
