ipdb.notable_features
IPDB Trap holes (25), Kick-out holes (7), One Card, 4 Magic-Lines. Holes 1 to 7 are Magic-Pockets, player-controlled kick-out holes that can transfer the balls left or right along that top row. During game play, only holes 2 to 6 perform as 2-way kick-out holes. Hole 7 has 2-way capability but only kicks to the right at start of game, when all balls in this row are kicked to the right to vacate the row, with Hole 7 kicking each of them to its right, into the nearby ball return hole to drain. This hole expedites the draining of these balls, rather than have them slowly roll down the playfield at the start of the game, making the player have to wait to start play. Patent No. 2,864,620 [BALL TRANSFER AND SWITCH MEANS] filed March 12, 1956. Granted June 5, 1956 to Donald E. Hooker and Charles G. Troeller, Inventors. used
