Duration: The tournament will last approximately 2-3 hours.
Objective: Your goal is to achieve a target score on each pinball machine. Each machine will have a designated target score:
- 1st Ball: Achieve the target score to earn a 1.
- 2nd Ball: Achieve the target score to earn a 2.
- 3rd Ball: Achieve the target score to earn a 3.
- 4th Ball: Achieve the target score to earn a 4.
Play: Players will rotate through a series of machines, each with specific targets. After completing each machine, you’ll move to the next in sequence.
Scoring: Your performance on each machine will be recorded based on how many attempts (1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th ball) it takes to hit the target score. Your cumulative score will be the sum of all your attempts. The player with the lowest cumulative score across all machines will be declared the champion!
