    description
    A general category of solenoid-powered playfield devices that propel the ball when it strikes them or rolls into their range. The [[gameplay-feature:slingshots]] are the most common and recognizable type of kicker, but the category encompasses any mechanism that uses a solenoid to kick the ball from one location to another. Kickers add energy to the ball's motion and unpredictability to its path — the player triggers them by proximity rather than by aimed shots, and the resulting kick can send the ball in directions the player did not intend. They have been a staple of playfield design since the earliest flipper-era machines.
