A Vintage Classic... BLACK JACK!
1977 Bally

A true vintage Bally classic... BLACK JACK!  This game was produced in 1977 by Bally, who hands-down made the best and most well-known digital pinball machines of the late 70's and early 80's.  Games like Black Jack, Eight Ball, Space Invaders, Silverball Mania and Harlem Globetrotters ruled the arcades!  Bally was known for creating great playing pinball machines with the best and most popular themes.  Card themes are always popular with players as everyone can relate to them.  Many games have poker themes, but very few used black jack rules.  Black Jack was one of the very first digital games that Bally manufactured and it really took advantage of the ability of the "modern" computer processing to make a more interesting set of game rules.  This true classic Bally machine brings your youth back to life with the fun and excitement of a full size vintage arcade game.  Pinball machines are presently enjoying a renaissance period with young and old alike experiencing new-found joy in these games of the past.  This game has genuine Bally style play with a classic playfield layout that's a real blast!

You'll love the vintage chime-box sounds as you try to advance your card hand to beat the dealer.  Once your hand beats the dealer as shown in the center of the playfield, shoot for the saucer and you will be awarded a win.  Each win awards an increase to the bonus multiplier.  Once the multiplier reaches 5X, the next win will score an EXTRA BALL!  Do it again for a playfield SPECIAL!  Different shots on the playfield will increase the bonus ladder at the center of the field.  Make it to 20,000 with the multiplier at 5X and you'll get 100,000 points at the end of your ball!  The rollovers at the top of the field will advance the bonus ladder, increase your card hand and light the corresponding pop-bumpers for bigger points.  Hit the spinner on the way to the top and get mega-scores!  The whole playfield is loaded with all of the of the classic playfield elements like a spinner, stationary targets, roll-overs, slingshots, pop-bumpers and more!  Adults and children alike go crazy for this game and you will NEVER tire of it!  Many enthusiasts will agree that this game is one of the very best early digital games of the 70's.  The popular and family-friendly theme goes great in any home gameroom!
