Time Fantasy pinball rules and strategy

The Strategy

Complete T-I-M-E in the recessed left alley to start Snail Time. During Snail Time, complete the top 1-2-3-4-5 lanes repeatedly to raise playfield scoring to 5x. Complete F-A-N-T-A-S-Y for held Bonus X, and build Snail Time above its 30-second minimum before starting it.

The goal

Build time, complete T-I-M-E to start Snail Time, and use repeated 1-2-3-4-5 sets to reach 5x playfield scoring. Complete F-A-N-T-A-S-Y for held Bonus X.

  1. Before starting Snail Time, add seconds with a lit return lane, the top 1 lane, and F-A-N-T-A-S-Y completions; time cannot be added once Snail Time begins.

  2. Complete the cycling T-I-M-E letters in the recessed left alley to start Snail Time.

  3. During Snail Time, use lane change to complete 1-2-3-4-5 repeatedly and raise playfield scoring toward 5x.

  4. At 5x, complete another 1-2-3-4-5 set for 450,000; complete F-A-N-T-A-S-Y between Snail Time runs to raise the held Bonus X toward 10x.
