Locks can be stolen!
Ball shot into saucer stays locked and resets 3 inline drop targets in front of ball. Knock all 3 targets down to release ball.
Light the spinner by hitting the rightmost standing target.
3 drops on the left of the same color rewards one inline drop of the same color.
To release a ball locked during multiball, complete left-bank drop targets of the correct color (upper saucer blue, right saucer green).
3 ball multiball is possible. If you hit the saucer again during multiball the ball is relocked
If you lock a ball during multiball, finishing all three drops of the same color will release the ball.
