Seen here at the Old Corn Mill in Brighouse is a 1992 Bally Black Rose.
Based on a pirates theme, the machine has a cannon built into the bottom of the playfield, which is used to sink ships with the balls.
** See below for tips **




Black Rose is a relatively simple game to play - although it may not seem it. Just follow the following rules :
  • Lite lock via return lanes or "pirates cove" (far left shot).

  • Once lit, lock a ball into pirates cove.

  • When in multiball play - shoot the ramps - this will add letters to SINKSHIP. This can be done repeatedly - this is where the good scores come from! Don't particularly worry about getting 3-ball multiball, because it's difficult to do, and you tend to lose one ball immediately!

  • Load the cannon via the shot from the upper right flipper & then shoot broadside at the top of the table from the cannon. You will get 20million for your first ship followed by 30million etc.

  • When shooting the cannon always wait until the cannon is moving from right to left, and use the central habitrail (the track straight down the middle of the pinball) to line up your aim. Never shoot when the cannon is going from left to right. Double click on the flippers rather than use the red fire button.

  • The other way to get good scores is via the double broadside feature, which is started via the top centre shot, quite often early in the game. This shot doubles each time you get it, and maxes out at 32million. In one game I hit this twelve times, giving 255million!!

  • This is an easy machine once you know how to play it...   ...I would appreciate knowing about any sightings in the UK of this machine via the feedback page.
