Vector pinball rules and strategy

Clear the left Defender drops from left to right, shoot the opened left ramp to lock a ball, then complete H-Y-P-E from left to right to start Multiball. Lock two balls before H-Y-P-E for three-ball play, or take a third lock to start four-ball Multiball immediately.

The goal

Clear the Defender bank in order, lock at the left ramp, and complete H-Y-P-E in order. One lock starts two-ball Multiball; two locks start three-ball; the third lock starts four-ball immediately.

  1. Hit the left Defender drops from left to right; out-of-order hits restore the earlier row and delay the ramp opening.

  2. Shoot the opened left ramp to lock one ball, then repeat the Defender route if you want a second lock.

  3. Complete H-Y-P-E from left to right: one lock starts two-ball Multiball, while two locks start three-ball Multiball.

  4. During Multiball, complete H-Y-P-E in order again to score the built HYPE bonus at its active multiplier.
