Instructions | TV Pinball Instructions Image |
An early style ball and brick type game. There is a moving target at the top of the field that scores 2,000 points when hit.
The Shoot button is used to put ball in play. Wait for the moving target to be right above the stationary ball so that you hit it right away. After that, hitting blocks scores points and removes them from play field. When all blocks are removed, a 7,000 point bonus is awarded and the blocks reappear.
Personal Impressions and Technical Impressions each account for half of the total score.
Within the Personal Impressions category, Like
carries a little more weight than the other factors.
