Pinball isn’t as random as it seems

Hint: Go for the flashing lights. Subscribe to our channel! http://goo.gl/0bsAjO When you look at a pinball machine, you might think it s nothing more than a bunch of flashing lights. Many people think the game is random, but it’s actually carefully laid out in groups of targets that correlate to specific objectives, called modes. These modes, along with the multiball, are the key to achieving higher scores in the game. Once you learn to control the ball using the flippers, start aiming for the targets that are lit – that means they are activated. Once hit, the game will light something else to tell you what to aim for next.
