Player tips · PinTips
Modes are similar style to Addams Family: collect Items based on matrix of playfield inserts. Shoot lit "Item" shots to get flashing insert.
Loop the R ramp (unlimited) without hitting any other switches
After approx 3 R ramps, the scoops will be lit for Multiball ("Mega Mode").
Best mode is the skull insert ("Doom" mode). 2-ball MB, and after MB, for remainder of that ball, all mode and MB scoring is doubled!
