Harvest / Hay-Ride pinball rules and strategy

Strategy summary

The goal

Hit the BALLY letter targets to open the Free-Ball Gate, light the Star, and light the bottom-left Special rollover. The gate returns the ball for another plunge.

  1. Free-Ball Gate: Hit the A, L and L letter targets to open the Free-Ball Gate. Roll through the open gate on the right to return the ball to the plunger for another shot.

  2. Star: Hit B-A-L-L or A-L-L-Y to open the Free-Ball Gate and light the Star target.

  3. Special rollover: Hit all five B-A-L-L-Y targets to open the gate, light the Star, and light Special at the bottom-left rollover. Roll through that lit rollover to collect Special.

  4. Harvest pumpkins: On Harvest, hit the Star target when lit to score 100 points and light the next pumpkin on the backglass. Light all ten pumpkins to score three replays.
