Dialed In!

Overview

Dialed In! is Jersey Jack Pinball's third pinball machine. It was released in June 2017, after The Wizard of Oz (2013) and The Hobbit (2016). However, unlike many of their machines, which are released as licensed pinball tables, Dialed In! is completely original, and is the first Jersey Jack game to be designed by the legendary Pat Lawlor. It innovatively blends special effects and a smartphone screen to create a disaster-themed pinball table with links to many of Pat Lawlor's previous tables. Three versions were released: a standard version, a limited version, and a time limited collector's version.

The game is set in Quantum City which is shown on the main monitor in the backbox. There is a SimCity vibe, with a range of disasters hitting it. The in-game phone receives calls from residents of the city when a disaster strikes. There are eleven different disaster modes: alien invasion, eruption, tidal wave, whirl wind, EMP strike, flash fires, sinkholes, meteor storm, earth shaker, acid rain, and singularity. A mini-wizard mode, Chaos in Quantum City can be played after 6 disaster modes have been played, and Armageddon can be played after all 11 main disaster modes have been played.

The game is the first production pinball machine to include a digital camera, which is located at the bottom of the backbox. This employs face recognition technology to capture portraits of the player for the high score leaderboard, and an innovative ‘selfie mode’ also showcases the game camera. It is also the first pinball machine to feature bluetooth connectivity, which enabled control of the game using a mobile phone app, but support for this app was removed from game code version 1.75 onwards in 2021. It is also the first pinball machine to use 3 screens.
