- Trap holes (17), Free Play holes (2), Vertical up-kickers (2). Two habitrails and three lighted "revolving reels" lift the balls off the playfield and deposit them into scoring pockets. A rollover in the upper playfield raises the draw bridges on the habitrails. Advertised as 44 inches long by 22 inches wide.
- ipdb.notes
- Compare the revolving reels with the Ferris wheel playfield action used later on Williams' 1988 'Cyclone' and Williams' 1991 'Hurricane'.
According to the Automatic Age ad shown here, the game mechanics were built by a company named Wilhite. The cabinets were made by Morris Furniture Company. We have no other information about either company.
One of the designers of this game, C. Hale, was reported in the October 1935 issue of Automatic Age, page 105, as a new employee of California Exhibit Company working as an Associate Engineer in their Research Department. In that article, he was described as previously having been an "associate developer" of this game and, before that, of PAMCO's 1934 'Major League'.
