The Bally Game Show pinball rules and strategy

The Strategy

Complete the TV, TRUCK, TRIP, and CAR targets to light all four prizes. Then shoot the far-right Collect ramp hard enough to reach the left Collect saucer and start two-ball Showcase Bonanza. During Multiball, make that same full ramp shot to collect the Grand Prize before it falls to one million.

The goal

Light TV, TRUCK, TRIP, and CAR, then make the far-right Collect ramp all the way to the left saucer for two-ball Showcase Bonanza. Repeat that full shot during Multiball to collect the falling Grand Prize.

  1. Complete T-V, T-R-U-C-K, T-R-I-P, and the CAR drop target to light all four prizes.

  2. Use the rear SPOT loop when available to fill missing prize letters.

  3. Shoot the far-right Collect ramp with enough speed to reach the left Collect saucer and start two-ball Showcase Bonanza.

  4. During Multiball, repeat the full Collect ramp-and-saucer shot to take the falling Grand Prize value.
