Cyclone

Overview

The sequel to the Comet pinball game, paying homage to the Riverview Amusement park that was in Chicago. The best feature of this was the Skill Shot where your goal is to get the ball into the 100K on launch. The game has no multiball which is not typical for its era. The next sequel was Hurricane in 1991.

A revolving mystery wheel is placed in the backbox - ranging from Zilch to 200k, Extra Ball, and Special. A Ferris wheel one on the playfield carries the ball for a portion of its rotation.

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.
