Revenge From Mars pinball rules and strategy

The Strategy

Revenge From Mars fills nine saucer lights through modes, Bonus Wave Multiballs, regular Multiball, and Mothership Multiball. Choose modes whose physical shots are controlled, collect three Capture awards for regular Multiball, then shoot lit saucer targets for ten Jackpots and a Super Jackpot saucer light.

The goal

Complete the safest saucer-light modes and Bonus Wave multiballs, then use regular Multiball for repeatable saucer jackpots and a Super Jackpot saucer light.

  1. Choose the Fuel or Weapons skill-shot group whose modes have safer required shots on this copy.

  2. Start a controllable mode and finish it cleanly when a Flawless completion is within reach.

  3. Collect Capture when lit. Repeat until the third Capture starts regular Multiball.

  4. During regular Multiball, shoot the safest lit saucer targets until the Super Jackpot qualifies.

  5. Collect the Super Jackpot for a saucer light, then continue only while two balls remain controlled.

  6. Use accumulated mode, Bonus Wave, and Mothership progress to fill the remaining Attack Mars requirements.

    • Light nine saucers, complete all three Bonus Wave categories, and finish Mothership Multiball.: Light nine saucers, complete all three Bonus Wave categories, and finish Mothership Multiball.

Alternative route: Martian Attack route

Use this when Capture or the center bank is unreliable but the seven Martian targets are registering safely.

  1. Complete the lit Martian targets to qualify Martian Attack.
  2. Start Martian Attack at Stroke of Luck and defeat the center Martian.
  3. Use Martian Multiball to collect switch hits and its available saucer-light thresholds.
