Night Moves pinball rules and strategy

The Strategy

Night Moves turns one locked ball into a repeatable release loop. Lock at either saucer, use pop-bumper and slingshot hits to light Release, then shoot the spinner for two-ball play. Relock a ball during Multiball and repeat the same Release sequence.

The goal

Lock a ball in either saucer, light Release with pop-bumper or slingshot hits, then shoot the spinner for two-ball Multiball.

  1. Lock one ball

    Shoot either saucer to lock one ball.

  2. Start Multiball

    After the lock, hit pop bumpers or slingshots until Release is lit, then shoot the spinner to release the ball and start two-ball Multiball.

  3. Relock a ball

    During Multiball, keep both balls in play and shoot either saucer to relock one ball.

Need to know
Lock and Release
Either saucer locks one ball. Pop-bumper and slingshot hits toggle Release; when Release is lit, the spinner releases the held ball for two-ball Multiball.
R-O-C-K
Complete the R-O-C-K rollovers to light Extra Ball. Any R-O-C-K or return rollover starts the Display Feature Award sequence.
CLUB and RIO
Complete either CLUB or RIO target-bank sequence to advance the NIGHT MOVES bonus toward Special.
