Iron Maiden: Legacy of the Beast pinball rules and strategy

Iron Maiden lets a single-ball Eddie Battle continue into Mummy or Trooper Multiball, while orange X targets prepare Playfield X. Use the left spinner to select Flight of Icarus before completing E-D-D-I-E with white arrows; shoot the center ramp to start. Hit the Mummy captive ball twice, collect the center-ramp lock on Pro or left-ramp lock on Premium/LE, spell M-U-M-M-Y, then hit the captive ball again; complete orange X targets and roll through the lit inlane for Playfield X.
