Merry-Go-Round pinball rules and strategy

The goal

The rotating center disc sets the three hole values. Separate ADD BONUS switches build the award collected at the bottom-center Bonus Hole.

  1. Collect a disc value: Send the ball into one of the three holes around the center disc to score the value currently shown at that hole: 100, 200 or 300 points. These gobble holes consume the ball and end that ball.

  2. Build the bonus: Hit the white top bumper marked ADD BONUS or either side contact marked ADD BONUS to raise the bonus value. Follow the numbered Bonus Value lamps in the lower half of the playfield.

  3. Collect the bonus: When the ball drops through the bottom-center Bonus Hole below the flippers, it collects the indicated bonus. The 10 Times Value When Lit lamp multiplies that award when lit; the bonus can reach 200 points.

  4. Control the pop bumpers: Roll over the green ON button below the center disc to light the two yellow pop bumpers for 10 points. The red OFF button switches those bumper lights off.
