ipdb.notable_features
IPDB 5 balls for 5 cents. Cabinet measures 84 inches high, 21 inches wide, and 18 inches deep. When the game starts, three of the six top lanes are lit and three of the six bottom lanes are lit. A ball through a lit lane scores 5000 points and adds one letter to the word M-Y-S-T-E-R-Y in the backglass. Scoring all letters lights all six top lanes for 5000 points. During the game, a metal basket oscillates at the lower end of the playfield. A ball landing in the hoop is delivered by it to the left-side Boomerang lane which scores points and returns the ball to the player. used
