Gameplay
Launch the ball and use the flippers to return it toward scoring objects while preventing it from dropping out of play. Because the table extends in more than one direction, a shot can move the action into a different section with another set of angles to learn. Gates near the upper portions of the playfield lead to time-travel events once their associated targets have been activated. Entering an available gate takes you into a bonus challenge, where the activity can differ from the main table. These events include a prehistoric golf challenge and a maze controlled by tilting its surface. Nudging is also available during ordinary pinball, but repeated shaking can trigger a tilt and end the current ball. The broader objective is to use each ball efficiently: sustain rallies, set up gate access, and convert trips through the table into a higher score.
