Camelot / Galahad pinball rules and strategy

Use lit top rollovers and side targets to raise the left kickout-hole award, then collect the hole. Watch the clue lights while scoring one-point hits and shoot the right kickout hole when 10 TIMES is lit for 500. Take the upper-left Extra Ball lane only when it is already lit, and hit Open Gate before sending the ball through the right-center return gate for 300 and another trip from the shooter.

The goal

Build and collect the left kickout award, use one-point hits to reach the right-hole 10 TIMES value, and take already-lit Extra Ball or opened return-gate opportunities.

  1. Hit lit top rollovers and lit side targets to advance the left kickout-hole award from 100 toward 500.

  2. Collect the left kickout hole after its displayed award has advanced.

  3. Use one-point hits to advance the clue lights, and shoot the right kickout hole when 10 TIMES is lit for 500.

  4. If the upper-left Extra Ball lane is already lit, shoot it for 300 and a return to the shooter.

  5. Hit the Open Gate button to drop the post, then send the ball through the right-center gate for 300 and a return to the shooter.

Machine setup

  • Confirm one of the two exact Bally EM editions: four-player Camelot model 867, OPDB G4yY2-MLyny, or two-player Galahad model 866, OPDB G4yY2-MQpPw. The two machines share the playfield feature set but not their player-count hardware.
  • Check three-ball or five-ball play, Match, Extra Ball, replay conversion, tilt, and score thresholds before competition play.
  • Test the four top rollovers, three side targets, both kickout holes, one-point switches and clue lights, upper-left Extra Ball lane and light, Open Gate button, drop post, right-center return gate, and both flippers.
