Chicago Cubs 'Triple Play' pinball rules and strategy

In Chicago Cubs 'Triple Play,' shoot the next lit drop target until the six-target bank completes TRIPLE PLAY, then collect Extra Ball at the lit hole. Use the spinner to register outs and finish its TRIPLE PLAY sequence, then hit the lit spot target for Special. Each finished inning adds 10,000 to Bonus.

The goal

Prioritize the next lit drop target because the bank advances the main sequence and opens Extra Ball. Take spinner rips when the feed is safe: they register outs, and completing the spinner's TRIPLE PLAY sequence lights the spot-target Special. Protect inning and game progress for their end-of-ball values.

  1. Shoot the next lit target in the six-target bank to advance the controlled TRIPLE PLAY sequence.

  2. Complete TRIPLE PLAY on the bank to light Extra Ball at the hole.

  3. Shoot the lit hole to collect Extra Ball.

  4. Send a controlled shot through the spinner to register outs and advance its TRIPLE PLAY sequence.

  5. Complete the spinner's TRIPLE PLAY sequence, then hit the lit spot target for Special.
