Quickie Version
Mostly UTAD; shoot at the roto-target when the number matches the one lit amongst the dominoes on the playfield below it or when it’s a star.

Full Rules
Full version of this isn’t much more. The two sets of three stand-up targets aren’t worth the risk since shots at them usually rebound into the central block and then back down randomly. The roto-targets and the stand-up between them are likewise risky for rebounds and should be avoided most of the time. When the domino face in the roto-target window matches the number of dots on the lit domino below, scoring the window target is worth 500 points. If the window shows a star rather than a number, that’s always worth 500. Other than that, just go up top all day and try to nudge the ball into either of the 500-point saucers. The lit domino is advanced counterclockwise through the snaking line below by the two side stand-ups that are currently lit, the two top lanes that are currently lit, and the two saucers.
Playfield Risk
It’s critical to get the ball into the upper portion of the playfield since all shots in the lower half have significant rebound risk. Any missed shot that stays in the lower playfield is trouble. Watch out for side drains when the ball exits the bumpers in too straight a line towards them; angled exits are safer.
