I could be wrong but it looks like there is only one mode( fuel) and a bunch of multiballs. That is very disappointing from my point of view.
Still very keen to suss one out but atm from the videos I have seen it appears that this game will look way better than it plays.
On the plus side it looks and sounds way better than accadacca.


That’s about the way it is right now – but I am sure it will change with code updates.

We found a hurry up from the captive ball the other night.
It has 3 or 4 multiball’s
Within the multiball’s there are certain shots to make of course – but at this stage I reckon even those aren’t finished.
We had all the SNAKE inserts light at once a few nights back AND 3 small orange inserts near the FUEL shot came on at the same time – however shots to any of the lit shots didn’t do a lot ( the lamps didn’t go out  ) so again I am assuming there is ‘something’ to come in that area ( there has to be – it cant stay like that )

There is also ‘Crank it Up’ on the plastic above the Mystery hole – unsure what that will do.

The large PF inserts between the flippers do not light up after you achieve the respective multiball’s that ‘match’ the images on the inserts – so again I assume there will be bigger goals to achieve in order to get them lit.

I had one of the guitar picks ( Robs ) light the other night ( we heard ‘dont f*ck with Rob’ and then the pick insert for Rob lit ) but was unsure how I achieved that as I am sure I had hit the pick targets in previous games and the main pick insert between flippers didn’t light in those games.

In the settings there are quite a few adjustments available for End of The line’ – ( wizard mode ) so there has to be a way to go with the coding.

Yes it LOOKS awesome , and yes the shots are REALLY nice , but at this stage the game is I believe far from done , if they end up combining some tough rules with the flow and shots currently available then its a real winner.
Fingers crossed hey.


I have no doubt that there will be some cool updates on the way, just a shame that stern don't release games with just a little more than bare bones code.
Don't get me wrong I look forward to updates when they happen, would love another x update but it can get a bit frustrating waiting for new updates.
Some more modes would compliment the game nicely for sure.
Can you confirm that combo scoring is already in the code? I think I read somewhere on pinside that it was, that is a definite plus for me, love combo scoring.
