Pinball Ride User Guide

We've integrated a User Guide in the existing version in the menu About > Rule Sheet.
It explains the basic principles of the table, so you can discover advanced modes by yourself.

Bonus multiplier

Lighting up the 4 lights at the top of the table increases your bonus multiplier. The higher your bonus multiplier, the higher your End-of-Ball Bonus, up to 10x.

Airbags (Exit Blockers)

Exits can be blocked in 3 locations: left, center and right.
Hitting the 3 targets on the left activates the left airbag.
Hitting the 3 targets on the front right activates the right airbag.
Sending your ball into the bridge ramp (middle right) with maximum Backseat Points activates both the left and right airbags.
Entering the Parking Garage may activate the front airbag, or even all 3 airbags.

Story Challenges

Hitting the ball into the blinking ramps and completing challenges advances the story. As you progress, new modes will open. All possible modes will be unlocked by the end of the story.

Nudging

Shaking the device allows you to nudge the table. The table cannot Tilt (you will not be penalized), but too much shaking interferes with precise shooting.

Contacts

Hitting the bumpers causes you to increase your Business Contacts. When no challenge is active, taking the ramp on the right gives you points in proportion to your contacts.

Parking (Lock)

The Parking Garage is located below the right ramp. Once inside, the ball is held for a second, then given back. The Parking Garage randomly gives rewards or triggers challenges: Multi-Ball, Airbag deployment, Friendly Duel, etc.

Backseat Points

Hitting the ball into the bridge ramp (middle right) increases Backseat Points. When maximum Backseat Points (3) is reached, the side blockers are activated.

Even More

Playing through Pinball Ride's story opens other exciting challenges, jackpots and rewards.

  1. Hi
    I have a question, is there any way I can keep the sound effects without that music??? it gets on my nerves, other than that, its a Great way for me to work off stress (I'm not into war games at all). I enjoyed the free version so much, I got the full one.

  2. Hi Lady,
    To disable the music, you have to get into the pause menu which is a bit tricky to access. (Fixed in the next version)
    Enter the Pause Menu by tapping on the score in the top-center of the screen. The Pause Menu will appear, and you will be able to set the music volume or turn it off entirely.
    Thanks for buying the game.
    Have Fun!
