ipdb.notable_features
IPDB Flippers (2), Pop bumpers (3), 9-bank drop targets (1) with trip arm. Open-elbow inlanes allow ball to pass from inlane to outlane and vice-versa. No slingshots. Wedge head. The playfield shows a progression ladder of "Shoot For" inserts notifying the player which of the nine drop targets to hit to advance the ladder. Game play opens with the "2 Jacks" lit on the progression ladder. Achieving each step on the ladder when lit resets all drop targets for the next step. However, when Royal Flush is lit, hitting the five red A-K-Q-J-10 drop targets for this not only resets all targets but a drop target trip coil mounted on the drop target chassis operates a trip arm having four trip arm wireforms to immediately drop the four black Q-J-K-Q targets, leaving only the five red A-K-Q-J-10 targets to complete to score a WOW. Scoring the WOW resets all nine drop targets and again trips the four black ones to leave only the five red ones up, to score another WOW with them, and this pattern will repeat until the end of the game. used
