Cyclone (pinball)
Cyclone is a pinball machine released by Williams Electronics in 1988. It features an amusement park theme, Coney Island, and was advertised with the slogan "It'll blow you away!".[1] Ronald Reagan and Nancy Reagan both appear in the backglass shown riding the rollercoaster.[2] Description.jpg) Cyclone was the second machine from Williams, after Comet, depicting an amusement park. The game has no multiball, which is not typical for its era.[3] The final game in the amusement park themed trilogy was Hurricane in 1991.[4] A revolving mystery wheel is placed in the backbox - with rewards ranging from Zilch to 200k added points, Extra Ball, and Special.[5] A ferris wheel on the playfield sometimes carries the ball for a portion of its rotation.[1] The playfield features boomerang, comet, spookhouse, and cyclone shots. Images on the moving ferris wheel depict a young couple kiss as it turns. The art on the side of the backbox features an asian type dragon and on the side of cabinet a carnival type design.[6] Sound bites from the game were used in the song "Carousel" by the band Mr. Bungle on their self-titled album. Digital versionsCyclone was previously available as a licensed table in The Pinball Arcade. FarSight, the developer of The Pinball Arcade, lost the licenses to all Williams and Bally tables as of June 30, 2018. See also
