Bronco pinball rules and strategy
Strategy summary
The goal
Light A and B to activate the bumper inside the Corral. The top lanes light the three colored bumpers. On the add-a-ball version, the lit Special rollover awards an extra ball.
Light the Corral bumper: Hit both A and B targets below the Corral. Each scores 50 points and lights its letter. The left side lane or hole also lights A for 30 points; the right lane or hole lights B. Both letters light the center bumper.
Score in the Corral: Send the ball into the fenced area around the center bumper. The ball can enter from all four sides. The center bumper scores 10 points when lit; A and B are the lights that activate it.
Light the colored bumpers: Pass through the blue or yellow top lane for 30 points and to light that color’s bumper. Either red top lane scores 20 points and lights the red bumper. Each colored bumper scores 10 points when lit.
Collect Special: Roll over the round button below A and B when its Special lamp is lit. On the add-a-ball version, this awards one extra ball. The rollover normally scores 10 points; Special availability depends on the ball-number setting.
