BALLY · 1971
Four Million B.C.
A special version was produced for Germany with the same project number and project release date. The schematic part number for the US version was W-1042-92a and was W-1042-93a for the German version. A gun game with a similar theme is Midway's 1968 '1 Million B.C.'. No overt connection was made evident between this 1971 pinball machine and the 1966 British movie One Million Years B.C. other than by those who would recognize the backglass art from the dinosaur fight in the movie. There was also a Hollywood movie One Million B.C. from 1940.
On the plunge, the goal is to roll all the way to the top of the incline without going over, then roll back down. Big points to be had!
When the flippers are zipped, the ball will rest on the flippers with no risk of draining. Use this to your advantage to line up shots.
Locking a ball in the Volcano will cause the Volcano value to cycle between 1-5k until the ball is released (right mushroom).
Balls locked in the Tar Pit get cycled up every time the Open Flippers mushroom target is hit.
