[Music] Hello, my name is Joel Engleber and this is the Flipping Out YouTube channel. Thank you so much for clicking on the video and um yeah, today we're going to talk about Medieval Madness. Medieval Madness. It's uh arguably one of the greatest games ever made. Um and it's great. I don't I mean it is a fantastic game. It's got amazing mechs. It's super easy to understand. and you can just step up to the game and you can just play and know what to do. Um, you don't have to point anything out. There's this huge mech back here that's obvious. Hit the castle. That's all you got to do. But, um, yeah, let's go ahead and start off with our normal, um, overview. Huge shout out to Zach and Nicole for letting me borrow this game. This is the Medieval Madness Merlin Edition. Uh, it's got some extra lighting effects, some of the GI lighting, as well as a really cool topper. Really cool topper that you can see up there. Um, XL display, awesome speed. It's a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful version of the game. So, um, yeah, let's go ahead and explain it. Um, very simple, basic in lane, outlane situation down here where you can spell fire. If you spell fire enough times, you can get to a special uh, mode with that. And then it's a fan layout. So, from this far left, there's a catapult shot. The catapult shot will throw the ball up and it will send it back down to the left flipper. You got your orbit shot or the jou shot. It's the same on the left and the right. Um, we'll go all the way around. There are times where it could stop and drop it back here. There's a pop bumper cluster back there. Um, then you got the left ramp. Very satisfying ramp. That's the peasant ramp. Um, where the peasants will start to revolt against you. Um, then you got this shot. This is the shot which feeds. There's a there's a spot back here in the castle. That's where you're going to lock your balls for multiball. uh is in that tight shot right there. You have two targets here. These are the trolls targets. You can see them here and here. Uh you're going to hit those enough times to light trolls. Then you got the main castle shot right up the middle. The draw bridge will come down. Then the gate will go up and you shoot back in there to destroy the castle. Then you have the scoop, the Merlin scoop. You can see it here and here. This is where you're going to cash in on your extra balls. You're going to start uh multiball madness. Uh that's your mystery mode. The mystery actually ties in with the three targets over here on the right. You basically light all those and that's how you light mystery at the Merlin scoop. Then you have the right ramp. The right ramp will normally feed down to the right flipper, but there is time where uh the damsel shot here. If you've hit that shot enough, it'll actually go all the way to the back and drop in back there, which is pretty cool. And then you got the right orbit. And then you got the plunge. The plunge will shoot it back here. If you hold the left flipper down, it'll go all the way around. Otherwise, it'll drop into the pops up here. And they got the two trolls. The two trolls are right here in the middle. When you start the trolls mode, they will pop up and you'll want to bash the trolls, which is always a good time. So, that's it. It's not It's not a crazy layout. It's very simple to understand, very easy to explain or know what to do when you step up to the game. And um yeah, let's go ahead and start a game. I am the king of
Okay, so when you're in the game,
there are six knights to defeat or six castles. So, right now, Sir Psycho is who is lit. Um, we're basically going to hit the castle enough to destroy the his castle and then we'd move on to the next castle. Um, so down here in the middle is where you, you know, your progress uh towards the castles. Um, and then every major shot in the game um has inserts in front of it. So, you know, we have three inserts here for Catapult. We got three on Shou. We got four on the left ramp, four on the right ramp. Uh, you're basically going to light those to qualify the madness version of the mode. The madness modes are right here. Um, so I'll show that off. And then you can see your light lock shots here for multiball. And then we have the castle as well. So, let's let's just go ahead and focus straight on a castle. I'm going to hold the left flipper down. That way it goes all the way around. And then I went right up the middle to hit the castle. You can see the drawbridge went down.
We're going to throw another one. That's one hit on the gate. Throw it again. There's two hits on the gate. And then the third time, Ed Boon, you've destroyed the castle. So just like that, I've destroyed Sir Psycho. But remember, when the gate is there, that ball is coming right back at you. So that is a dangerous shot. So to work your way through the castles, the best way to do that is with multiball. So I threw that shot. The locks are lit by default on ball one. So let's see if we can do that again. There we go. There's ball two. And then we'll go ahead and get ball three here, which will start multiball. So when you're in multiball, there's a few different things you can do. one. A lot of people like to use multiball as a great way to work your way through the castles um because it's safer. Otherwise, you can see the jackpot shots are lit on the range. So, let's go ahead and start hitting some ramps. Let me grab all these. You can see magic shield is lit. So, that's the ball save. So, there's a jackpot shot. There's another jackpot shot. You can do the left ramp as well. You're going to see on screen here there's knights. You're going to see them here. Yeah. So, I've already hit three, so I need two more uh jackpot shots. There's another one. Let me get the last one. Doesn't matter. Either one. And then you can see right there, the super jackpot shot is lit. So, I'm going to hit that super jackpot shot. And Ed Boon. There's all your points. And also an extra ball. So, I can hit I can hit my uh scoop over here to get my extra ball. Now, this scoop, you really got to hit it just right. It's got to fall in there. or you hit it too hard, it's going to fly off the side. Um, but that's the main goal, right, during during multiball is you can work on your mult your extra ball. Otherwise, use your multiball to do the shots up the middle to get through some castles. So, let's go ahead and get through castle number two. So, it was two hits to hit the draw bridge down. Now, it was three hits to hit the the um the gate up. There we go. We just got through our second castle. When you get through your second castle, you have another extra ball lit.
Extra.
So now I'm already on castle number three. So once again, if you're in multiball, this is a great time to keep chipping away at castles. But I'm going to go ahead and drain down to one ball. Now that I'm down to one ball, what I want to show is I want to show um let's go ahead and get our trolls lit. Believe it or not, I'm actually aiming at the troll targets. Oh, sweet. You have to hit I think it's eight troll targets. So that's these targets right here. You have to hit those um enough to light trolls. You can see trolls is lit there on the insert. So let's go ahead and start trolls at the streak. So the trolls mode itself is kind of a little mini mode where I have to hit each one three times within the right amount of time. So you can see how I have two on the on the right or left. So remember, these are all very dangerous shots.
And then once you get through all three of them, you um
you will light troll madness. So troll madness is um that is a way to get through one of the ma um the madness multiballs. Let's talk about the other madness multiballs. Um basically, you want to hit the same shot enough to fill up. So that's one orbit. Let's hit another orbit. Now I have joust lit. I just have to hit it one more time. And once you've done it, once you've completed all the inserts, that's how you your madness is lit. So I have joust madness lit. Let's go ahead and get catapult. Now, what do I mean by by madness is lit. If I hit that scoop right now, I will start a multiball. And that's called um what's it called? Multiball madness. And every everything that you did to qualify it will be lit as a jackpot shot. So right now, oh, let's talk about this. So the cat happens to be 500,000. So let's uh cat. Ah, I guessed right. There's points. So now catapult lit. So if I was to hit the scoop right now, all my joust shots, my catapult shots, and my trolls would be worth jackpot shots during that multiball. You really want to capitalize on points. You want to stack everything. So, let's go ahead and try to get peasant going. There we go. Oh, also fire to spell fire. Move your You want to roll over when they're not lit and you can control that with your clippers. So, now I have peasant. So, for the sake of demo, I'm going to not light damsel. I'm going to go ahead and start this so you can see what I mean as I as the shot pops out. There we go.
So, I got joust catapult peasant. No damsel troll. So,
you can see everything is a jackpot shot. Everything's lit and kind of saying, "Hit me, hit me, hit me." Except for the right ramp because we didn't complete the right ramp. So, that'll be a jackpot shot. This will be a jackpot shot. Now, you do want to absolutely hit your trolls down while you're in this So, I'm just bashing trolls. I think it's 10 trolls. So, that would be four, five, six, seven, eight. Remember, it's multiball. Nine. There we go. So, what what did what happened now that I hit all the trolls? My master trolls is finished. [Music]
So, once again, we are in a multiball. So, I can use this as an opportunity to uh work towards my castles.
So, let me keep aim at those. I have a super jackpot lit over there. Let's go ahead and capitalize on it.
Yeah, let's get that. There we go. There's another super jackpot. Super Jackpot's still lit, so might as well hit it. Yeah. Lots of points here. And I'm working. You know, you're in multiple. safe.
Come on. Oh, that's all right. Hit another troll. I'm trying to get that super jackpot. Dude, the shaker motor in this is going nuts right now. Oh, I dropped the ball. All right, so that is me playing my multiball madness. So, to get to the next level, which is the royal madness mode, I have to finish all these. So, the only one I hadn't finished is dancer. So, let's go ahead and finish Damsel. [Music]
There we go.
And now save Damsel. This ball's going to go all the way to the back. You're going to see it here. It has high piss. There you go. It goes all the way to the back. So, you save the damsel.
No, no, I have a headache.
So, all of these are lit now. Now that all these are lit, uh, we have a hurry up going. So, let me shoot the castle if I then throw the ball. There we go. I got my hurry up. Now that all these are lit, I can play royal madness at the scoop. Okay,
madness.
Royal madness is you have to complete every flashing shot. And once you do that, so I have to pop these down. Let's talk about Can I use the troll? No, I don't have the troll bombs. Troll bombs is something you can get by hitting the targets and then you can hit the launch button to uh knock down the trolls without having to shoot. So, I'm just trying to hit every major shot. There's candle. There's peasants.
What do I need left? Uh oh. I think you have to hit him twice. Yep. See how everything's still lit? Yep. There's that. And come on. Ed Boon. Once you've done all that, um, complete. I think you get an extra ball. Yep. That's the main perk. And that's kind of it. Um, at this point to get these other blue lights, you have to get through. Um, you have to do everything three times, I think. So, I'm on level two of the catapult. Oh, let's get another one here. Uh, I think there's a video mode that if you get every single um Oh, I get it. That was level three. So, catapult accees done. So, let's uh let's work on Joust a little bit. But at this point in the game, you're kind of grinding a little bit. Um, you're going to hit a lot of shots. There's Joust champion. So, we got through joust level three.
And I see these are lit again. So, I can get into another multiball here.
There we go.
All the way through there. So, I think that would be is that level three on that as well? Damsel 3. Yep. Defender of damsels is it. So, that leaves just the uh this shot. Let's see if we can work through that. I'm going to still fire while I'm doing it. [Applause] [Music] There we go. See, I got everything lit blue except for Castle Crasher. And that's because I got to destroy a bunch more castles. There's another castle. So, that'll be castle three destroyed. So, I have everything else qualified to do Battle of Kingdom except for destroying all the castles. Now, I don't know, Zach, if you want to fast forward a little bit, but this is where we're chopping wood. [Applause] And that's the king of pain. So that would be the final castle, which means I should have Castle Crasher lit, which I do. So now Battle the Kingdom is open. And to hit Battle of Kingdom, where am I shooting? The castle. And at this point, Zach will probably end the tutorial cuz he doesn't want to ruin anything. And that's about it. So super simple to explain. Multiball, you're going to hit this shot. You're going to hit that shot three times. That's all you got to do. Once you've done it once, you do have to hit it more than once to light locks. Trolls. I wish trolls was a little easier to get into so more people could hit good get into it, but basically you're just going to over time hit those troll targets. Once you hit those, you hit the scoop, it'll start the troll mode, which is a lot of fun. Uh otherwise, you're just bashing castles. You're bashing castles. You're working your way through that. And if you really want to focus on points, you want to stack uh your different modes all on top of each other so that you can start those in the multiball madness and get multiple jackpots for all your shots. Um, but honestly, it's a game that anybody can step up to and have a good time. Anybody can step up to and and know what to do. Um, it's a very approachable layout. It's a very funny game and uh the animations are fantastic. So, I totally understand why this game's so beloved. I understand why so many people love this game and it's a great game to have in your collection uh because it's so approachable and just fun. So, uh if you're looking to buy a new game, reach out to Zach and Nicole Flipping Out. They'll hook you up. This game is currently sold out. They are trying to make make as many as they can, but doesn't hurt to get on a list or um hopefully they'll come back in used or whatnot. But I'm have a lot of fun with this game and um yeah, hopefully that was helpful. The only other thing I didn't show is fire. If you spell fire, I think it's like five or six times, there's a mode associated with that. And then if you get through all the animals, there's a mode associated with that. If I forgot anything else, leave in the comments. Tell me what I forgot. Um but yeah, it's a great game. Thanks for clicking on the video. Appreciate you guys. Have a good day. Bye. Or if you want to get fancy, put a marshmallow on a on an arrow, but you would have to add the fire. So, you know, like
