ABOUT

On the game in the manufacturer's flyer, the four inserts 2X-3X-5X-Special are green, white, white, and green, respectively. Most production games are green, yellow, white, and red. Pictured in this listing is one game from the factory having green, yellow, red, and white, where the 5X and Special insert colors are reversed. Also pictured is an example where the G-L-O-B-E inserts are white, not yellow. We show Greg Freres as the artist for this game and his name appears on the backglass. We asked him about the name 'Hudson' appearing on the playfield below the right flipper. He replies: I did the art. Margaret Hudson may have cut some screens for me in the production effort and I may have given her credit.

The key to big Scores is to get the 20k Bonus with first Ball. This is carried over from Ball to Ball and ist not hard to aim for 30k, 40k

Shoot the inline drops to add value to the left orbit spinner. Milk that spinner and collect letters in the center saucer.

Beware the gap between the two left "scissor" flippers. A ball that passes in between drains in the most embarrassing way!

If Super Bonus carries over, it can be very valuable as well, and can be increased by hitting the lit center spinner.
