Panthera by Gottlieb

    GAME FEATURES
    & RULES

GAME OBJECTIVES SUMMARY: Panthera is simple to understand but somewhat harder to play! To rack up the points you need to make the yellow, white, green and blue rollovers to light the correspondingly coloured drop-targets, then drop these in order to crank up the bonus score and the multiplier. The memory recalls which lit drop-targets have been previously hit between the players' turns. The longer one takes to complete all 4 rollovers and all the lit drop-targets, the smaller one's score will be!
For Extra Balls, life should be easier but it isn't! Making the 1-2-3 rollovers is relatively easy but the bull's eye target to get the Extra Ball is toggled on and off with each scoring shot (unless switch 31 is on), halving the chances of an Extra Ball.
