ipdb.notes
IPDB The flyer for 'Skipper' indicates new "multi-tone chimes" were used. The game that preceded it in production, Mibs, used bells. This would establish 'Skipper' as Gottlieb's first game using the three-chime assembly. The schematic for this game identifies a 'ones' chime, a 'tens' chime, and a 'hundreds' chime. We previously showed a date for this game of November 1969. The new date is per Gottlieb documentation. used
ipdb.notable_features
IPDB Flippers (2), Pop bumpers (3), Kick-out holes (2), Hold-over vari-targets (2), Rotating arrow bumper. Unlike other games, the vari-targets did not score and reset upon being hit. Instead, each target remained in its hit position until a ball landing in the adjacent kick-out hole collected the Target Value. An operator adjustment determined if the vari-targets would reset after each ball or after each game. If reset after each game, they became a carry-over feature from player to player. Repeated hits by either player could increase Target Value until collected. Maximum displayed point score is 9,999 points per player. Sound: 3 chimes, knocker. used
