Overview
Released in July 1985 by D. Gottlieb & Co. (Premier Technology), Bounty Hunter is a solid-state pinball machine built on Gottlieb's System 80B platform. Designed and programmed by John Buras with artwork by Larry Day, the game features an American West theme inspired in part by the Torpedo 1936 graphic novel.
The table is equipped with three flippers, two pop bumpers, two slingshots, six standup targets, a horseshoe lane, and a central drop target representing the outlaw "Cactus Sam". Players build up scores through a six-gun firing sequence mechanic and a timed showdown challenge against Cactus Sam.
Bounty Hunter was among the first pinball machines from a major manufacturer to incorporate alphanumeric displays, allowing the score windows to show actual words alongside numbers instead of pure numeric digits.
Only 1,220 units of the machine were ever produced.
