    description
    *Jungle Life* is [[manufacturer:zaccaria]]'s unlicensed reproduction of [[manufacturer:gottlieb]]'s 1973 *[[model:jungle-life]]*, built from scratch as a single-player [[technology-generation:electromechanical]] machine — one of at least three Italian copies of the American game, alongside those of [[manufacturer:emmepi]] and [[manufacturer:lori]]. It comes from a moment before Zaccaria was formally a pinball manufacturer at all: by founder Natale Zaccaria's own account, the brothers began not by designing games but by refreshing worn imported machines with new artwork, after an economic crisis pushed the cost of American pinballs out of reach.[1] A copy such as this one belongs to that early reskinning trade, before the firm turned to original designs of its own.

    At the time pinballs were mostly being imported from the USA, but due to an economic crisis in Italy their cost increased a lot, and so we decided to start refurbishing used pinballs with new graphics applied.
