Amigo pinball rules and strategy
The Strategy
Amigo turns the upper-right arc into a spinner light and the left spinner orbit into a one-use right-outlane save. Shoot those two routes in order, hit the center Up Post target only when its rebound is safe, then repeat the lit spinner from the right flipper.
The goal
Use the upper-right arc to light the spinner. Shoot the left spinner orbit to open the right outlane gate. Hit the center Up Post target when its rebound is safe. Then repeat the spinner from the right flipper.
Plunge for the center saucer. Accept a side top lane when the saucer rejects the ball.
From the left flipper, shoot the upper-right lane arc to light the spinner.
From the right flipper, shoot through the left spinner orbit to open the lower-right outlane gate.
Test the center Up Post target from control. Hit it only when its rebound avoids the outlanes.
Move the ball to the right flipper when the transfer is safe.
Repeat the lit spinner from the right flipper.
Use the right-arc return to regain the right flipper. Relight the spinner when necessary.
