Ripley's Believe It or Not! is a pinball machine produced by Stern. The game is based on the newspaper comic strip of Ripley's Believe It or Not!
Notable features
Ripley's Believe It or Not! pinball machine is notable for its multi-level rule that enables the beginning player to achieve some of the game's goals early on, while it allows the more advanced player to extend their opportunities with better play. There is also a very strong magnet under the shrunken head that catches the ball, holds it for a second, then shoots the ball to the rear. In another mode, it stops the ball and immediately gives it back to the lower playfield.[1]
