This game has a feature allowing a player to join a game already in progress. For instance, two players can be on their second of five balls and a third player can be added to join in. The third player starts on Ball 1. Play continues to alternate between all three players, and the Ball In Play counter changes back and forth for whatever ball each Player is on. In this example, the first two players would reach Game Over together, leaving the third player to play out the remaining balls for Player 3.
Maximum displayed point score is 9.999.990 points per player.
Balls per game is adjustable between 1 and 29.
Tilt penalty: game over or ball-in-play (operator option).
