- Trap holes (25), Ball kicker (1). Backglass in wood frame hinges open for service access. Laminated plastic playfield.
The array platform of 25 holes is slanted towards the rear of the game, and any balls that miss the holes will settle along the back wall of the game. Along the length of the back wall is a slot in the wood hiding a metal rod "kicker bar". When non-scoring balls settle along this wall, the player can press either "flipper" button to pulse this kicker bar outward, kicking these balls back onto the grid area for possible scoring. The more balls that have already scored, the fewer holes remain available, and the player may have to repeatedly kick the balls back into play until they can score. A strategy is possible when a non-scoring ball rolls along the back wall, allowing the player to time the kick with a desired available hole.
