Flashing lights, Changing colors, electronic sounds and fast action are just part
of the realism involved in playing this challenging pinball adaptation. Catapult
your Spinning ball out onto the electronic playing held. The excitement
heightens as your ball bounces off the flashing bumpers and into the scoring
