- Flipcommons AI Descriptions (GameplayFeature) A patented [[manufacturer:id:714]] mechanism that uses an electromagnet beneath the playfield to grab and hold a steel ball as it rolls toward the outlane. The player activates the magnet by pressing a dedicated button — separate from the [[gameplay-feature:id:65]] buttons — at precisely the right moment. If the timing is correct, the ball sticks to the playfield surface long enough for gravity to pull it back toward the flippers. Magna-Save was introduced on *[[title:id:758]]* in 1980 and appeared on a handful of subsequent [[manufacturer:id:714]] titles. It remains one of pinball's most dramatic save mechanics: a physical intervention that feels like cheating the laws of physics. used
