ABOUT
We previously showed Christian Marche as the artist for 'Granada' but this game is not on a list of his games that he compiled in 1992. The actual artist is John Craig, who did the backglass and playfield for 'Spanish Eyes'. He told us he did the lettering panel for the 'Granada' backglass but did not recall doing the alternate art for the playfield. However, after seeing that the people on the 'Granada' playfield were drawn identically to those on the playfield for 'Spanish Eyes', he believes he probably did do the playfield art for this game.
'Spanish Eyes' and 'Granada' are the only pinball machines on which his artwork appears.

Loop is worth 5k all the time, no need to build up like kickout, but more dangerous. Give good horizontal nudge as ball comes down to pop
Center shot is usually repeatable if you can control the ball. Try bounce passing off right flipper from kickout.
Ball between flippers can sometimes come back from the middle pop bumper. Skillful nudging may help.
