Full Rules
*Shot to Master: the Ace.*
Full version: the same. Really.
The Skill Shot is to get one of the two Kings for 300. Best choice is to soft plunge for the king on the far right, which may also feed the Ace below it.
After that, it’s all about the Ace, worth 500 points, more than anything else in the game. Completing the cards only gets you a worthless special. Since you’re after points, ignore which cards you have. UTAD from the right flipper to try to get the J or Q for 100 or, ideally, a King for 300. Shoot the Ace from below with the left flipper. And if the right flipper is strong enough, when cradled, try to flip the ball into the right side of the 100 bumper to bank it into the Ace lane from above.
Key feed: the exit from the bottom of the Ace lane. If it drains down the middle too often, switch your strategy to UTAD with both flippers.
Playfield Risk
Any feed from the top of the game can drain or go out of control depending on the speed and angle.
