Flipper Football pinball rules and strategy
The Strategy
Clear the goalie drop targets with the upper flippers, then shoot through the exposed upper goal to score. The game is timed, and a center drain counts as your own goal.
The goal
Use the lower flippers to feed the ball into upper-playfield control, knock down the goalie drop targets with the upper flippers, and shoot through the open upper goal. Keep the ball away from the center drain, which is treated as your own goal.
Use the lower flippers to send the ball toward the upper playfield, then take over with the two upper flippers.
Knock down the goalie drop targets to expose the opponent's upper goal.
Shoot the ball through the open upper goal before the goalie bank resets.
Recover to the lower flippers when the attack breaks down; the center drain is your own goal, not the end of a normal pinball ball.
