Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Notice the feedback after each input.
The objective of a round
Reach 1,500 points before three balls drain. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Review the board or playing area as it changes.
Making your moves
- Start to launch.
- Use the two flippers.
- Bumper collisions score.
- Launch remaining balls after a drain.
Input guidance
Hold Left/Right flipper or arrow keys. Start / pause and New round are available. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Contact us with the game and device if a control does not respond.
A useful example
Activate the flipper when the ball reaches its active surface. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Check the stated objective.
Pay attention to this rule
A drained ball cannot be rescued. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
