Star's Phoenix pinball rules and strategy

The Strategy

Hit the Bowling targets until Capture Ball is lit. Shoot the Skill Shot lane to hold the first ball in the upper hole and release a second ball, then send the second ball into the same lane to release both and start two-ball Multiball. Use G-A-M-E lanes and spot targets to open the upper-hole gate and advance the other awards.

The goal

Build Capture Ball at the Bowling targets, lock through the Skill Shot lane, then make the same lane with the second ball to start two-ball Multiball. Use G-A-M-E and the spot targets to keep the upper gate and Amusement sequence moving.

  1. Hit the Bowling targets until Capture Ball is lit.

  2. Shoot the Skill Shot lane while Capture Ball is lit; the ball is held in the upper hole and a second ball is served.

  3. Send the second ball into the same Skill Shot lane to release both balls and start two-ball Multiball.

  4. During single-ball play, use G-A-M-E lanes and spot targets to open the upper-hole gate and advance the Amusement hole lamp.
