TL;DR

SDTM streams Hobbit wizard mode attempt, exploring deep mode mechanics and code updates.

Summary

Hosts Greg and Chuck from Straight Down the Middle stream extended gameplay of The Hobbit pinball by Jersey Jack Pinball, attempting to reach the wizard mode after playing all 31 modes. They explore complex rule interactions, multiball strategies, and mode-stacking mechanics while discovering undocumented ruleset details and discussing how mode progression affects scoring and playfield features.

Key Claims

  • The Hobbit has 31 modes that must be played/completed to access the wizard mode

    high confidence · Hosts state this is the newest addition to code and discuss attempting to reach it tonight

  • Extra balls in The Hobbit can be earned by hitting captive balls 25 times then plugging into rabbit holes, or through treasure hunt roving target mechanics

    medium confidence · Hosts discuss extra ball qualification but acknowledge uncertainty: 'we're not totally clear on how treasure hunt starts'

  • Playing modes in certain orders makes subsequent modes worth more points, similar to CDC (Cure Concert Dates) rule stacking mechanics

    high confidence · Hosts explicitly compare The Hobbit's mode-value stacking to CDC's tour-date ordering system

  • Multiball can be started while playing certain modes, and starting one mode during multiball prevents starting another mode until that one completes

    high confidence · Hosts discuss and test multiball/mode interaction rules during gameplay

  • The Hobbit strategy guide found online was from older code revisions and missing information about mid-locks and other mechanics

    high confidence · Host acknowledges strategy guide limitations when discussing mode lock mechanics

  • Newer code updates to The Hobbit added percentage-complete display and difficulty indicators on mode screens

    high confidence · Hosts note new UI elements in recent code that help with gameplay clarity

  • One guest (Chuck) has The Hobbit in his home collection with nine machines total

    high confidence · Chuck mentions having The Hobbit and 11 games in his collection

  • Skill shots cannot be earned by plunging directly into targets; only regular switch hits count toward mode qualification

    medium confidence · Hosts discuss and clarify plunging mechanics during gameplay exploration

Notable Quotes

  • “so basically you have to play not complete all 31 minutes so we've learned a lot the past week on how to qualify modes what modes we'll try and get some extra balls”

    Greg (host)@ 2:52 — Establishes the primary goal and acknowledges recent learning about mode qualification

  • “I think there's one mode called spiders and flies I think that's what it's called I would definitely do multiball on that one”

    Greg or Chuck (unclear)@ 9:18 — Identifies a specific mode recommendation for multiball strategy based on target-heavy design

  • “like one of the coolest things I learned about this code is how all the modes play with each other it's kind of like a CDC if people know that game very well”

    Host@ 12:30 — Highlights the sophisticated mode-stacking and value-modification mechanics that define The Hobbit's ruleset complexity

  • “you can play modes during multiball so getting into a multiball is even better”

    Host@ 5:29 — Explains a key strategic element that unlocks advanced play paths

  • “I would just say them like was a good rule of thumb would be spiders the harder it is you know the longer you have to last in the mood base where you want to be a mother right”

    Host@ 8:59 — Articulates a core strategic principle: harder/longer modes benefit more from multiball extension

  • “don't get why people call this game boring it I mean in my collection I have nine up to nine machines now and it's if if it's late at night I want to get my pinball fix damn just playing Barnyard myself this is as always a top choice”

Signals

  • ?

    community_signal: Some community members characterize The Hobbit as 'boring,' but core enthusiasts defend it and rank it highly for home play, suggesting divided opinion on complexity vs. accessibility

    medium · Chuck states 'don't get why people call this game boring' and indicates it as top choice despite having 9 machines

  • ?

    content_signal: Hosts identify multiple potential stream formats for The Hobbit, including dedicated wizard-mode runs and scene-progression themed streams, indicating the game's content richness supports varied content creation approaches

    medium · Discussion about 'so many different types of streams on this game' and dedicated Smeagol-focused streams potentially taking an hour

  • ?

    design_philosophy: The Hobbit implements sophisticated mode-value stacking similar to CDC, where play order affects subsequent mode point values—representing a design philosophy prioritizing strategic depth and replayability over accessibility

    high · Hosts explicitly compare to CDC's tour-date ordering system and note 'one of the coolest things I learned about this code is how all the modes play with each other'

  • ?

    historical_signal: The Hobbit's online strategy guides are outdated, missing information on recent code changes including mode lock mechanics and treasure hunt triggers

    high · Host acknowledges finding strategy guide 'from a lot of code revisions ago' and notes missing information: 'I don't remember talking about how to do the mid locks because I don't think they implemented those'

  • ?

    manufacturing_signal: Jersey Jack Pinball excels at integrating live-action movie scenes with mode progression, with shots advancing the scene; Stern games use constant looping scenes without shot-progression integration

especially during a multiple or something well you're not using it anyways I think when you're talking about like competition wiser my score wise that's just four points and if we're doing this by the way this is all focused on modes I wouldn't even focus on skill shots you can plunge into targets especially because it's almost easier to use it's almost easier to plunge into the e on elf than it is to hit from the right flipper yeah I used to look I'm sorry get that mode again that's right you can use the other flipper oh my god that mode is on what up welcome everybody to the second round of attacking hobbits new code sir there should be no background music please tell us there's background music so yeah just be hearing us in the game the whole time let us know if the games not loud enough or if we're not allowed enough but um so the newest thing to the code mode wise rules wise is the wizard mode after playing all the modes so we're going to try and do that tonight and we'll probably trip over some of the other wizard modes while we're doing it but basically you have to play not complete all 31 minutes so we've learned a lot in the past week on how to qualify modes what Ricola Faiz modes we'll try and get some extra balls to keep the game going but the extra balls are fairly hard to complete we know one is from captive balls you got to hit the captive balls 25 times and then plug it in each rabbit hole but then the other ones treasure-hunt right once treasure hunt starts there's a roving target that we need to hit but again we're not totally clear on how treasure hunt starts outside of qualifying all your modes before you start a mode so everything but again it didn't seem to work consistently but if anybody chat knows let us know we will get going you're me first okay good all right so again some of these modes are super easy they might only be one or two shots so we'll go ahead and play those but some of the like more difficult modes if we happen to play them if we get to a safe track we might just time it out so we can get through that in there we're not gonna pick we're not gonna go in the particular order yeah the the modes also have rules as some as you may know that you know if you play certain modes before other ones there it makes that mode worth more those kinds of things we're gonna kind of ignore that and just see if we can't get to the end this is one goal they're back yep so what's this one in half your feeder modes worked up to this mode it becomes insanely valuable so this is left ramp all day hitting switches increases the value of the left ramp but if you're if you're looking to just get some quick points left ramp all day 75% you can advance and play modes during multiball so getting into a multiball is even better so the only thing that won't let you advance your maze is being in one of the wizard mode sorry but you can't qualify like you have to drain out at the ball travel I think to start another so this mode is pretty dangerous and once we hit the captive ball or the left hole so so if I can't wrap up here boy do not want to enter time oh yeah to talk on that multiball thing Wow you can start one mode while you're in smog or while you're in beast but once you finish that mode you you're unable to start another are you sure I'm pretty sure I think unless you don't and you can't qualifying that's right but you have to have more of modes qualified going in the Skagit yeah you can't recall five trap sir so this is definitely a complex now do you know so you have your mood locks are those being qualified by just the regular lock button so once you light your lock for smog is that lighten your mood lock as well cuz I just kind of look up sometimes I see the motor locks are lit and I just go ahead and take one like and then play like maybe try a harder mode yeah I don't I don't think mode the mode ramp is ever not lit unless you don't have modes there's no like you know you can hit the orbits at they're lit green and it'll lock up all for your holes right what kind you activate them yeah how do you like this I'm chat yesterday yeah they don't get they don't want IV because the the strategy guide or the rule set that I found was from a lot of code revisions ago so while in its base form I think it was pretty accurate I don't remember talking about how to do the mid locks because I don't think they implemented those I got the luck that's thinking to his movie it's switched right when I came back it may it's probably it could be the loss this one should shoot bumpers ok so we're thinkin if small Glock is qualified so are your mode Watts butchy remote your mode multi balls and if we're just straight on forward if they're even worth oh yeah we're straight going four outs I don't do it but if you're doing points oh you're trying to complete a really hard mode and make one of your wizards we're almost you almost need to memorize which modes you should go in with a multiball like I would just say them like was a good rule of thumb would be spiders the harder it is you know the longer you have to last in the mood base where you want to be a mother right well the more targets you did right one involves hitting a whole bunch of targets at first or something definitely hit that yeah like I think there's one mode called spiders and flies I think that's what it's called I would definitely do multiball on that one yeah that's all of your Baxter spider three times and then it's every stand-up target Danny Elfman and or laughter so yeah and do the drop targets come up I can't remember it no they're dropped you gotta hit but you stop yeah stand out target which is a lot so we got our little bug display going so you should be able to see miss to the information you got your percent complete on the right hand side remember in the middle and then your instructions surrounding the timer which 50 the percentage for the percentage complete is not as the new code didn't used to have that which that helps a lot otherwise I think they were sitting new new code also tells you the difficulty of the mode you currently have ready to go on the little book screen it'll have your star value on there as well [Music] [Applause] so if anybody knows Sonos or easy easy mode wandering one drink one drink that should be concise right that's the other this is the easy move there yeah so when I got a timeout Evernote obviously because if it's one one or two shots for intake so basically all are like 1 1 2 star like maybe some 3 bags or no most possible I play those especially if I got it home Chinese flavor saver trust it so you did you've already played everything now see now what I would do if you like when you start the next mode like if you feel confident enough that it hidden in orbit you know maybe the soccer ball just you know it'll help you keep balls alive and guaranteed you can strap offer is it yes yes nothing laughter this [Music] so what did we do last time was the best we had like 20 22 it was 19 or 20 started yeah those are season strings that's not bad for like purposely trying to just get through yeah so yeah and like hitting those mode-locked shots - or venture towards Erebor you know kind of keep the game going yeah yeah that's what you want marijuana said you can get past us to get past Erebor and then you get you gain map bonus value right ultra mode if you're going for points you can't really get a lot of points out of those yeah so each mode depending on where you are on the map it can make them as more valuable as well so that's like one of the coolest things I learned about this could is how all the modes play with each other it's kind of like a CDC if people know that game very well like did you know in a CDC them is like if you play them in certain order of their tour dates or how the hobbies came out like these jackpots like worth way more yeah it's pretty wild I don't think it's quite as complicated as how it doesn't here but though I say we don't trust on-the-fly backhand yeah the traffic it will not stay on them this abroad simple right off the tip so you got at least locked to to maybe like three no more modes again at all it's probably the driver ID they're locking another owner you don't have any know you got one qualified the one minute sir well that would be multiball but I need more qualified your sealer true so hit so hit left ramp or right right rabbit hole give me any qualified at least two more yeah so now we almost want to trap up after finish this mode well you got started Matt you're not yet so I tried a little wanna just play with the others you can get to trapped up [Music] I learned more about Smaug - its time this one island see there's seven there's there seven shots per wave six and then the super lights hit the super then you're under the next wave the fourth wave is when you kill it don't go that one you've hit six jackpots I believe and then you hit the complete demand targets and once you complete them it lights the right ramp - loads of wind Lance comes up there and you got a hit there you go they hit the target it's lit if you miss you got a knockdown man again later a rabbit hole that's right I remember they're really knock out all the man time yeah the easiest targets that in - okay so we got another mode now you can add another ball to play actually did in orbit Bokke while you either play it safe and go mode right now or you can into orbit first then go mode and you'll have another ball in play [Music] this is your man in here the houses spiders yeah where you wanted to spider their excess working towards benign you just need one one beast sorry everybody how dare you it could send time to your med sir you know what the teacher how about you Peck completed it hey let me help you staging is theirs you two play slower during multiball and more calculated that's true yeah yeah we are tired tsunami so we only had to qualify correct so now let's just follow yourself like why is booklet and how we gonna choose really don't have any qualified well that's good thing let's just do it [Applause] [Music] so I guess any of the rent shots are super a little hit book [Music] we're serving target when this I don't know if it's like the center captain wall flashing blue [Music] Thanks is that out of all complete red shots complete flashing dwarf charges okay so today yeah busy the left ones the left ones are flat ah you're still tripping oh they go to push to play smart play smart here and hit those those elf talks try and get tough shots but that's why [Music] there you go it's the middle one on out so now it'll be all qualified but I bet you since you didn't already have them qualified before you got in and would you ever have more when you got out right because I definitely played at least four or five minutes when I played smog that would be I mean if that's the case then it would be a hell of a strategy and make this it would make this go by a lot faster make this go by a lot faster if we could did you play more than one free plan you know plan that out if we if we were able to get like it leaking on ten ten balls ten modes qualified and then yeah so treasure hunt he got really close to white nine extra ball missing one target but it was way too dangerous to go after just to like the rabbit hole he wouldn't have gotten an extra ball from hitting that shot he would have let the rabbit holes for extra ball and he would have had to hit both rabbit holes to get the extra balls which those those do stay rate throughout the rest of your game oh I can't and almost a pair boy I would I would hit the easy left ramp just to get more modes up there just in case you get another come back to save killi killi is gonna die it's killing that girl Holly Achilles it can't remember that girl's a girl arson thank you don't they all end and I saw he's on the right there's one right okay so back to qualifying looks like any of the neither I am still give me something the next thing we need to get clear on is what causes when you finish your mood present aside which ones stay qualified or become unqualified another target story come back to me don't do it ah great first of all that dude you got through like 10 minutes how the hell a first-ball sir how many moves by 10 really yeah hey well that's all pace we are kind of on pace that's 1/10 of a mode off the pace and you have a little auto modes qualified I do yeah okay so actually I do you think it might actually be a decent on - if you get your ring back well you need to hit the lock you got that Oh trouble trouble start this mode hopefully get that lock lit Pacolet and then you knees only got another four or five months at least [Music] but what we say on how you wrought how you light your smiie will say over here u s-- it's all about hitting in the hot bumpers you know that was for the kickback you told me outta my degree yeah the bushmeat oh I can't remember pull up that you got your fan pulled that thing I say now you got your you got you you can't wrap up I would go into multiple you have one two three yeah well I just let my lock that's well it's trying to do Lisa's superior right but again remember like when you're done playing to move certain meds from one side so maybe from playing mood if you want another ball get one by hitting you orbit and then [Music] Paulette some do not dun-dun-dun gum long timer [Music] so I should have another mode ready to go right away but we'll see yeah I mean I had a whole bunch of extra ones let's an okay I can do this at least three or four or five times so the blue beast is the one that I still need from orchard right if it's flashing green I've already hit that one right neither any of the inlanes that are lit I know but each time you go through like so if I go through that pork unlit in Lane it'll light one color then when I go through it again it'll pop up the orc again all right so I think the one that's blue might be the one that I still will see one ring all right so I started remember other products that would be your Beast now I think we're already in beast roars no no I I started that faster spider-man I didn't actually run through that awesome area doesn't count [Music] yeah so [Music] you stall you can stay slumber guns that's good yeah [Music] but that the red flashing arrow there was like a coal fire [Music] because your emotions gonna give it because you're hoping it's letting me do it like that rocks and [ __ ] where you can try it look right grant that'll be like Oh what you got to go in the bumpers first before that capped a ball of light for five so we got eleven okay all right star mode let's go after this well we could house for two tanks two times table scoring we had to go right now next minute please again that's the next thing we gotta get used to is what what well unqualified meds after you've local interesting you're a jerk Jersey Jack we fell he had this one figured out we've been studying for a week [Music] seven seconds so what's the roast button so you got the hard button done online so yeah I need one more lock like was she dangerously to get those other ones well then I was fine so I get right interrogation now this is a fun how are you turn animation anime it's a cool scene from the movie I would show to you as soon as I tried to work I bet it tickles that can you can your next line but I'm just saying it could also tickle the Charles oh nice did you do that on purpose no what did it just do they just don't work went down right enough to do her Clark hey is it more in here nice end up cutting that orcs head off complete it alright so now we don't have any modes yeah just shirt really ties us out [Music] cause those shirts are nicer like I'm a pretty big stickler for t-shirts in that company don't the type of shirt stay composed oh this is our favorite wear Smeagol hey I got those three see they start play start drop so dropping on their own I'm thinking the blue shots probably so maybe he's just not worth as much of it that guy so we still haven't figured out this mode but all those shots now going away right and there's only that drop time there's only the one drop target so assume you hit that about to risk a dream yeah because I don't even think that's where he is you hit that to activate the whole thing it would restart yeah okay actually and if you wait long enough the game that's the game compensating to like okay we'll drop some over now I do not get the Godzilla fixed because the battery holder yes disconnected from the board so it needs to be reattached or I'm just gonna have him put a remote battery holder on it so we have no connection so even if there's batteries in there and I'm sure they're not dead it's just the battery holder snapped off the board so very solder pathology brantford what issues an opportunity to put a remote battery holder on no big deal but you sold Jeff a lemon that's all i'ma say all right so got more votes oh yeah I know you paid extra for the silky smoothness shirts I just made some for Penson a tee and get up there they're not the silky smooth kind cuz soft that's awesome but we thought about doing special show shirts each year that were unique for each trade over fencin a tee that would use the silky smooth shirts so we'll probably do that and then just have like not crappy shirts for just you know cheaper shirts that are just more generic if you're gonna trust it at that speed and got at least nudge it back in tickle both the log roll overs on me dude you gotta be like at least 16 17 something like that not enough I think I lost my face I'm just gonna get right into it you know what Zach I did hit a hell of a pothole on the highway on the way back did you really oh it's great it woke Alicia right up then I got immediately on ways Oh get in there Oh [Music] comin up every better baby [Music] yeah that'd be cool get some cool like caricature of me made I feel like I have features you can exaggerate they look good on a caricature let's see here so what am I putting my red shots here [Music] and all stretcher not too great but I'm not dead yet it's just your own ball three y-yeah you not only face her this is that flies and spiders mode this is what we talked about the mode that you'd want to go into with the multiple just cuz there's so much [ __ ] [Music] [Applause] see if we can't chefs this okay you got the Goblet you know what so what do you think you know what you know that I bet you don't have to just collect them all once you have to have them all out at once you see what I'm saying so like what do you think they rely after time well like you go through one that's unlit it'll light back up oh okay well if you really wanna get into it you're gonna get it right it's just real it's fighter as soon as you hit that it real it spider maybe my teeth she's close where they are they on the front page still for the Doctor Who thing I thought they already did that he's only starting ever on the front page for something last weekend had a whole bunch of yours hmm well that was Doctor Who okay I don't know why they're on the front page though for that oh where you go from here quite right I got solar and look sure you got one one yeah you know what I said about plunging the targets they won't let you do that it already thought of that well no like you just straight up plunging them and I'm sure it'll are you talking about just so you it'll work towards your meds yeah but it's a skill shot like it only once a once a switch is hit then it then the target so come on oh yeah oh I could have used that I just pissed it you think so with no modes oh my gosh twice alright you were hot to lead us off this time hey birdie come here let's see if zach oh no everybody look at this camera here yeah look into that right there hey what's up everybody say thanks for the Godzilla Zach say look love it said Godzilla how are you buddy oh now I've done it I started a third ball nobody I gotta set up a little bit you can't just turn it on I have to set it up yeah but I have to set that up too I'll get to a buddy just a second [Music] this just seems even harder to strap up on one down 30 to go hey Zack how many games do you think you've and tenure [Music] he's good I probably I probably only end like 13 unique games and I have 11 games in my collection [Laughter] [Music] he's got a hell of a setup in his garage yeah nice nice tall ceilings very very cool room nobody because I need the sound on this shoulda gave you something I should have qualified by him [Music] that's counselor he said to say in public that means it's over a hunger right that's actually the easiest ways can you get it to go down there what's that like the left outline if you get to come over here or any of the a lines just softly roll in and you can do it passive otherwise if it's coming down yeah because it roused the vets ECMO Henrietta after this ball to Joe nozaki yaeko mercy Jeff setup he's got he's got an awesome set up down here sir still working progress yeah Pirates of the Caribbean with computers to make it a little more complete are you are you so debating or did you order one your weight nope still on it oh gosh nice oh I'm not gonna say thing but I'm gonna say I think you went to save mode Oh like I hate I got hair too early which one you want buddy [Music] Wow that K I mean I shoulda came to one of my foot but the I put three players in okay we'll just take turns on player three [Music] I beg your pardon the contract right I mean thing yeah well we could check it right there one I just started [Music] I'll tell you what like like one thing they do fantastic on this game that I don't have Stern made it look extremely difficult to do is you had these movies with all these live-action scenes but I feel like they seriously put these scenes into these modes and they just yeah they just it doesn't seem at a sink about fluid it's crazy yeah II would go with the mycorrhiza cow shooters quiet right now they did the later wizard modes and guardians of galaxy's a lot better like when you get into emulation initiative in so we initiated and saves and Arno's those uh movie scenes are a lot better okay that's good but most we're going to see those right sméagol is the best privacy can never you're actually trying to play this no fun yeah in and man damn see all these times you could do so many different types of streams on this game oh yes for sure is there like one stream to be dedicated to panic Smeagol because it's we probably take us an hour to Zach was saying how the scenes progress to the modes to like like just like curvy example doing that like me beating that into the fire or whatever like all those different scenes and then small to like a different level that's the difference between JJB and stern is the stern scenes they're just on a constant loop no matter where you are in the mode yep they're constantly loop so you just see the same scene yeah over and over and over again okay save me that time in this in the hobbit specifically you know each shot you hit puts you in a different place in the scene that's awesome you love playing these moves well if they're easy enough I'm all the drop cards what oh my bad I saw the left frame but I thought I was in that far right now drop targets actually wait it might be left ramp but that just adds time okay good bet I mean it's actually lit so much says hit drop shoot drop targets yeah well I wonder what the less transport yeah it's um what it could be yeah that's a perfect way to put it there's no continuity between the scenes on stirring now that you guys noticed but that was actually a new multiball start seeing some I think different in this code added as well in the new code normally it'll just have Gandalf scream at you ball but they've had a few different things so you really probably going to get though what the door targets what's your super exotic pop okay I'll take that too come over beast action here but I'm not completely clear on yeah yeah on face friendly no beast okay you're on you're in feasts friends right now peace you have to hit consecutive peace in a certain amount of time like once you've hit it once you've hit a beach when I hit the next piece rather quickly and you'll get it's worth more points I hit that damn thorn bad for ball one [Music] it's not working destroy smart okay fine well definitely try and do that honestly trying to get through these meds and being in smog you wants to get pretty deep through small because you're kind of more methodically hitting stuff in yeah it's it's yeah like you said it's just playing more controlled which is what small requires yeah you can get to the end just by flailing away just keeping balls alive it's but finishing off small you're not gonna get it but yeah you gotta those last few shots you got to do really calculated but the good thing is is you you keep your progress every time you start a small town so if you get to the end and start another small mouth eyeball you you start in the final scene right all the way playing playing this now on just so people know when you when you have he's got super spinners going right now you hit the spinners again and it adds value to the captive ball and you hit the captive ball to collect your super spinner jackpot oh that's cutting it and then the super spinner is on a timer so you have a minute - it has many spinners as you can and I think it's rather valuable I think if you really rip the spinners and stuff you probably get around like 50,000 for that shot anymore out of in ridiculous [Music] [Applause] the only thing that sucks about these multi balls as you'll tend to use up all your kickbacks oh yeah you guys notice the blue and the captive ball area that arrow right trying to catch the ball the light off below but you've got another animal I'm on it when the ball goes into the bumpers and comes out of the bumpers to that upper flipper your captive Falls Lake blue flashing blue for like five seconds to light you another check back visually kickback sir sac here no have a winner this is a target brazen walk yeah on our unwatchable stream there's a key beat this last time the Eagles coming to Iowa you get a victory lap strike that you got another this part is pretty cool the Beast guard the jackpot I don't know one in particular enough [Music] I hit it again before the ball got back down where it's closed now 14 beasts and I think of now you gotta get the ramps [Music] I got I agree [Music] no what was it why you taking sodomy just not thinking of it yeah Wow mainly I want to have a clean shot so I didn't want to just try but we've been missing that all day I mean granted back to the Joel there's a new trip right there go down to work sir go down sir boy sir it's not another boat for fun though you're wrong I mean I guess you could just cuz I'm in a minute I'd rather take the lock oh never mind your inner master keeps coming up stay up though you're in the interrogation oh okay so the whole modus okay thank you I was I thought it was part of Beast and I was like why won't he stayed another Trevor it's given me hundreds of points for those guys going up and down literally hundreds of points mr. an see big traps up at the time this one I started another or just you can take your lock because you look I don't think you're lost yeah that's what I'd like to don't get why people call this game boring it I mean in my collection I have nine up to nine machines now and it's if if it's late at night I want to get my pinball fix damn just playing by myself this is as always a top choice there's so many different ways like what we're doing right now yeah all right let's try and destroy smog while we're doing this but I'm gonna hit that ramp at some point to get another known going [Music] you have Mowgli he postpones mammoths otic Lee I was the one ring left rampu oh my gosh okay yard to dig completed you got little it again okay that's good good time to start another one on the again you can really just play oh oh wow okay extra ball okay um again in this course I would I think that's um you have two balls right there there is actually these are the beasts balls eyeballs but you were still okay so getting this one I would just play all away maybe bound to get pears around in the rabbit holes rattles or jackpots anywhere now you get down to three hey you know what it's a good thing I accidentally started this third player bubble and happy [ __ ] that's what I needed [Music] there's no beast stone smog [Music] looks like a left we get more five minutes orbits would just add a ball to turkey out of auto mode yep but it's also what you need next first [Music] I were stopped we're we are definitely not doing tournament rules right we'll go for the right orbit to stay where there we go all right you guys don't see that I got another huge shower how you gotta know I'd be ever clue because you know what hit enough captain anything okay enough cameras - oh yeah maybe you were in treasure hunt we didn't know yeah maybe [Music] actually the mode is the left hole so if you can't wrap up and get the left forever hole yeah that'll be for the motor in there oh wow I wasn't even looking what happened with it came out of the habit oh yeah unbelievable Oh real snap arcade would up yeah okay you're supplying all right well China's qualified one gold your stone ball one so I would just start a mode if it happens to be that old and that particular target first [Music] mr. Hansen well I mean you can go ahead and start to get ahead of all right so then I try our offices just chill out just take it easy just take it easy hey what's up that so we're about halfway there right now maybe not I gotta advance to Erebor to get to the next wizard bed so that's good because I'm gonna have bird lock lid on the right orbit I'm gonna I'm gonna shoot for that Oh No [Music] todos oh I'm sick list Erebor I got a maid multiball ready oh my barrel skips right I did get the air [Music] 23 22 21 captain ball hides beasts what is this the ring into the hall yes I got the wrong wrong game times no that's just that's why we're here right do you want to have like a game that has long hang times there no yeah I mean if this game was brutal it would be pointless to have these extensive you know taxes to make it brutal take out the center post there's all kinds of different things yeah get in there extra yes your mind set up to over seven degrees yeah see the magnets putting in the hop ahead in the work okay on the orbit there you don't need to get it to land in there just the magnet stops [Music] we have Mordor targets on a spot he overshot nice right into the shop beast and yeah ramps will light up will raise the Lord [Music] I got you for your bumpers early it's a constant turnaround that's good because I definitely rocked that Graham yeah lowers it so yeah come right back around a little diverter right there good Oh oh it on one time okay what Zach said before one good game a hobbit that's true and I'm spent for the night but it once it's not a game that doesn't want doesn't make you want to come back to it either it was totally fun to play the part even there like there's long periods you're helping the other person like understand where to hit where to hit do this do that because it's so a ton of different ways to tackle it as well every time you come down each night you can like one night you can you can tackle mutters the next night you can just tackle wizard modes and small yep let's see if we can't find easy move put in our back pocket well there's your weird like ring bonus all right so nothing's qualified [Music] yeah yeah you'd have to swap with Zack for maybe 12 hours and then he'd be ready to sell it I agree the Dracula's on my hit list as well nice actually buddies that came over the last time uh Pete he's just up the street from me and he's got a he's got a really nice condition Dracula so return to counter modes I'm trying to see if I have an easy one available to play just start it okay you got your vote did I even oh I've completed a mode to get to the next yeah oh so you need you'll probably once you finish this one I mean you only have one that's not gonna have a live trap up but you need your seat for your lock but you'll probably want to have I think you only have like one target on one of it well let me check my staff again I wasn't sure that I completed a mode to get to this final no but I mean do I have a mode completed to get to the next wizard mode yeah I don't also I was looking for an easy you're off the goal air dude the bottom Army's we're gonna take a little detour you know die on the d sword don't think the detours I'll damn it I hit the timeline face period what's a lunch yeah that's for a hidden that was the backstab ring charge all right so you know race you have don't have any mercy so I gotta drop trou go to the hole we're gonna hey you know let's just talk to qualified timing yeah can we go for the right rabbit hole or you can just knocked on it that's how much are you got two times play field that's a deadly path out of those pop bumpers and back into the middle quite hill is that orc ambush this does not sound easy without another ball yeah I'm trying there's a whole lot of get your tongue Morlocks by shooting dangerously all right hey man it's still ball one you got one another extra ball - yeah I'm on you stick to the goal yeah now the five armies could come later oh hey Helen might in my next I mean if barrel five armies lit then they would go for you lose the ball try others rabbit he's my particular Hobbit seems a lot harder to play than any Hobbit that I've seen and I'm playing a couple on location and they were much different playing in mind and actually the ones I've watched on a video are a lot different as well we actually tried to swap out the flipper rubbers tonight so I can only trap and it didn't work so we can see I'm sorry you can count here uh playing 18 of us there we go they team pay for ball one you got me yes all right so funny more actually just one more the South's gonna do is from your honor oh maybe maybe not I'm pretty sure has binary we're after recall father right ramp lazy that's three shoot down the dragon in the mode but that means just two shots no because I would try it just right ramp loads that's nice are you gonna give us I thought numbers lock me out for multiball shouldn't ya if you're in a mood of our show so I can't tell if I walk during multiball but it'll be ready when ready when you yeah when this modes over the walkers should be like ah should be weird but now why are they flushing oh how was that grace period I got played all the games yeah okay that qualifies oh yeah now it's nice now now they complete a mode so when I'm in will do all talk me through this minute so I can try and complete it well be a hell of a shot to get the left orbit left her right orbits be an animal but it can't see me get it you can horse yep you need shoot your money [Music] Oh damnit definitely screwed that up but I got beat I started going started these oh my god Fred so miss Eliza Rustad - it and ball gods want me to do it yeah they might be on our side come on you actually need that you just gonna play this a national work stuff yeah but it's probably not I'm just gonna keep bashing if it goes for different phase and I'm gonna stop he's a safe shot well it's about time no I know that's probably why Lizzy's [Music] oh yeah least 20 minutes deep oh hey remember that little trap up things are in the modes and I'll cherish you ever was that that was a bird should brochure drawn I missed him that don't mean I don't want to hit how it happened would you play let's check out this will reveal nice Oh that's good though we got the rock it's either or really I got that situation because yeah I'm gonna come back to shoot Ramsay boy dropped targets but so you don't want to do a multiball avoid drop her oh so having more balls in them flying around yeah this is a very precise moment it's not easy right this is the one you beat there last time this is the mode that's the setup to the to the 5-star motor Drome is [ __ ] what if I just keep doing this [Applause] yeah I think just do should I get it yeah see now that was a lot yeah because we've progressed pretty far on the map how close am I know is I feel like I'm just got Sparta that was where he got spotted in Arkenstone maybe though that's part of the new code and I don't know I also go back and rewatch that somebody actually saw how that happened but he was just spotted in Arkansas that's part of my new code as well I don't know how you did it you just had a you just said treasure hunting who's the first I've seen this first time I've seen this ten be watch check out the check out the cinematics not this one who Thomas agreed targets brown one that pieces more flights all the stand up targets a increase your jackpot right class mainly just peace okay let's all say ten beginning [Music] yes Zach which pickup it shoots back up from this depends on which hole you go in so the one officer module was going down the left-hand lane to the right rabbit hole for example or the right well she does more works go to the right tomorrow works yeah we're beasts which it's a flashing indicator flashing grants it's the same thing I got rejected don't even worry about this piece yeah peace and more bounce into those pure gopher explore which he's already got by the way you might want to keep those greats are its first work oh come on I'm hitting these guys now once you get through this you're like a super jackpot I wasn't far enough in it to be a super well that said America was just getting cool yeah that was actually the poorest I've ever seen that oh yeah darks right yeah we're very dumb fathers now the only was your boat left is they're embarrassed no more temptation and now you've given me up late 23 we got a twice we're about to play a tiny little ball one folks still bow Kilner work we completed the minimum amount of modes to be a little bit about [Music] actually that's not mean the minimum noise because the Battle of five armies is three [Music] jam [Music] again off kids I think I played all those mares already don't try and kill me wicked shimmy it was just going like this is that crazy I know if it's a lock i'ma tell you it's gonna lock it safe and we feed it back to my flipper this is actually a pretty cool mode when every play it despite the name [Music] okay we're other 25 I think 26 after this one get the goal we're here would be to qualify to qualify a couple more modes and then get your long yeah what are we gonna get ya that's 20 hittable I told them right in the locker okay yeah 25 that that should actually probably give them to those 53 seconds this is another really cool mode all right whoa baby knows me but you knew that just spray some of this on there we're bound to get it now he's got to get is this the new inbox it's the new boom box a new inbox clean ball cologne for there and back again oh give my little little ring points 20 more seconds I feel rejuvenated you here in the zone right now [Music] Oh a nice clip they clipped that a wicked shimmy I did a nice nice for it's like for father you only have four five one two three four five moves five moves ago probably need the man you can make that right hole what's that right although now have you see that weird color on the right hole definitely never saw it before though huh that is list or something it could be the rest of your modes is that Stratocaster maybe after we complete his modes that yes either the main I mean you need the man how can your terror I just man okay oh I'm trying to travel for a shower go back wait does a man I bet elf has left [Music] cuz you just you just completely cuz right girl you might have to redo right you know what it's Bilbo it could be a builder I know he's flashing I'm trying to hit him now he's done too so I think and then we'll check the wharf here all right slap me to curious now man see I want to see what the castles lit like that yeah Wharf got me a memory and it's probably it's definitely elf after them so once we complete it goes off in its own we play don't triple drain out of this because of a triple train out just make sure you stay calm I got this you don't have any nose I gotta hit more jackpots I hit six janabat server and then the man tires me the rams move orbits oh that was a nice little mystery shot right there I'll back down a - yeah just calculated [Applause] can you double mystery or mm nah I just another mystery that's lit the Beast you know what if you'd hit that beast you got a beast she write rap oh yeah coz excellent tracks wait you haven't serve all that again you might have extra Bowl it again I'm gonna try to go for that while you have to transfer it says extra you still got your jackpots late which is extra ball is a jackpot anyways [Music] all right yeah it's the elf targets to call am I done with the work do we know we haven't clarified it it's Dorf or elf so you can back in those yes we start at dwarf ants yes I'm trying good hit now what you could do wait you could go for the orbit get your motor boat out a ball go from mode then get your uh then get Rex ball while you have the ball okay yep clutch that was clutch hold fire please thank you [Music] right hole right all right I've already got the W anyways that might fall for another mode watch oh there's the Brad against modes finished oh okay well it wasn't boo-boo I have no idea jackpot I have no idea we want the W anyway hey that is one step Dorf meds quotes that's one step towards that they're back so yeah okay so you just use so it's not knowing what's up yeah I think you just go slow you got the E and L that'll give you another quick chat is anything spot L flutters oh there's a man yeah Bilbo did we fit him a million grams with them so it didn't give us anything before no I was weird maybe you had to complete some first to get to like one of the final well it'll still come up late if you're fast we're going for that anyways you're supposed to be able to alright so it's still I think that's double dangerous [Applause] you're on the two more moves neither think this just one shot right yes double bangs right now no well that's what's so I got started yeah yeah story we're cloudy feel like playing am I the only one think I had that bad of a ball going you just took over with the third ball this is crazy because I didn't even mean to start I was like we're supposed to be swapping it remember that was our plan was the Ovilus take turns on player 3 alright everybody now is the time to take a drink break need a little refill on your beverage all right everyone I do not have the displeasure of playing that Hobbit at pin burg but I did hear it was extremely brutal there's nothing I'm gonna learn from this just get it going and get her in the tray or something as though we gotta figure it out shoot characters we should have said it's just [ __ ] it should be one month right one mode cap bill was you know without even right before you before you plunge do us now it's completed completed I'm done with Bilbo I'm done with yes we have the one so just do a status report what is that picture is it not late it's just ok well it'll it'll still show us no use pass them hard in I got in the front read the qualifiers D and G itself okay so it's so I got D and G I need you though okay and which you need all during bonus a time I try to get my extra ball and then we'll start going after you know what they're lit right now hate puns they're too late right now I don't know if it'll give it to you because of the skill shop and cat would get all [Music] nice this since while we still got that off football to which I'll wait till your third ball to go that would be nice come on baby come on [Music] so I figured out before to hit the e hit around the orbit and hold up the upper right flipper hit that evening nice so each time you complete other jackpot so the rat right rabbit hole screw Jack yep so the jack has four clean the mess which Tosh this either house to fasts slingshots give us love I'm just gonna wait you're in it cuz that would be great but I can have a qualified I might not be able to start it long you might get quote on because you drop targets it swings oh you got if it comes out to the edge of that flipper and you do a little flip backhand that might be a way to get it whatever does that again you're saying right there you see yeah if you wait till it comes are to the top of that and then just give it a little back foot come on give us some love well I got my third lock so then yeah so I'll lock up oh man just hope that it qualifies it we're in this moon yes first sling almost hit it first their milk started it's good for smaller this i'll give me the edge nice so actually need the right you need man okay [ __ ] it says shoot either no that's for the motor [Music] small hill and we almost played everything in the game oh look it's late that must be their bag and it's lit both holes were there nice okay I don't need a mode lock but it'll feed it to the LA Clippers yeah I'm gonna take my 1500 once I hit the hole balls Oh Jeff your palms hold me come on Eric you dumbass so we're gonna play every mode right shoot anyone shot should email it shot to advance the bag in DWI Cantina on something like a it's a replay of everything that happened in the movie okay rabbit hole you know and this is single ball yeah okay so [Music] I'm not hitting you spider buffering you got left right okay you only got eight seconds okay ten seconds I keep standing all right nice very nice you got ten seconds each time to hit one of these shots Oh No damn how about that how what they give me extra ball yeah that was my extra ball that was Mashable was it remember I drained off something's weird because it said two or three right there at the end hey that was there back again nice job oh yeah we got a one ball to go what's gonna happen now what I do actually you do got another ball we'll see yeah well we'll go ahead and speed through this how do you not have a chance to make that's okay anything I might try to go for small the only thing we didn't do is go small [Music] thanks for the [ __ ] murmur make sure the first ones to stream that honey yes that was the goal first reported in my scars on my record of like completing meds the first time I play them without talking there's no Ryan Policky you know the tempest short-timer yeah no you got there were talking you have to go through 31 of those yeah you know what it's probably replayable third yeah so it's like it's like one shot from each move you know what of all the homicide play yours is the least floater someone say how funny this game is yet you're jacked up so steep and your flippers doesn't strong yeah it doesn't feel I mean the other how that you see the ball you can just like kind of tie yeah you would take it free as it always across the screen [Music] yes so the health modes were a trick because we can't just qualify modes anyway you want to every mode has different qualifiers that are associated with it so if you get to the modes that need elf is a part of the qualifier it's tough to get that yes now a couple times I was able to hit the left orbit and ramp it off to the upper to hit it in you really got to get into a multiball just hope a ball hits the because you can still qualify you're registering thanks Jenna we start out one ball to go I wonder what the game does you've already been there maybe ever smoke kill me small is the only thing that's left so that's what I'm gonna do I'm ball three well technically speaking right since we played six balls on that total yeah but legit I mean we didn't cheat this is default settings default no Cheevers in this house [Music] oh yeah I could call he said try beating into the fire it may save the progress we were one shot away remember save the progress for what so like the second time you getting it into the fire it might say the progress so we're gonna shock into the floor right yeah because it's a full turn yeah [ __ ] off you get back in but so you have to go all the way back through you need oh yeah no no my house isn't the right bulb yeah it's it's qualifying the mode zach is definitely the hard part of this but that's what made no challenge even with this time yeah most of them Tommy I mean I've probably completed four or five of them like make sure six but because you have to reek wallah fighters what my sister yeah like we came in tonight thinking that we could do all the the qualifying yeah like things first then they'd stay let the whole game and then we figured out real quick that that was definitely start over okay so okay but they're all still lit into the fire everything right but it probably I mean if you dislike the game again it probably saves your progress is they're back as well but yeah you can get that I need to start so it kept my that's cool so I had all that completed so I needed beast frenzy and normal walks I wonder if they go back to be an easy loss yeah it's basically restart from here yeah this is a good night football because this is a great mood to take in it's like take multi balls into distances we explain this one on the last on the last ring that didn't go over very little bit like he just did ripped that spinner and he's in peace which is gonna help this mode with 25 seconds all these switches add value to them yeah I guess they're hitting the gram yeah 18 seconds okay but um yeah you probably need more of these let's see now that shot right there's each shot now is up to 15,000 16,000 so this is this this mode in particular if you're ever in a competition and either mode to go for of the 17,000 value now with 25 seconds so you can get up man it came out up another couple spinners you get this mode so you only got sunny we only got a like one shot of it left so if you want you have 15 seconds I would get more switch it's okay if it carries over right there just to finish that mode off you scored over a hundred but I got all that greens up see I'm doing it over again I don't that's lame that's alright this is really the hardest part of this mode once you get to the bar where you have to do drop targets and it works like it becomes much easier left over here well it kind of becomes more less chaotic yeah yeah you can get more of methodical about that at that point you've probably drained out a couple of bolts and your ball savers also I think that's not just another part that makes things fun because they start out there like the medieval madness trolls there are different for different characters from the movie piece in orders that's cool how they're all different they'll pop up in different modes and then also pop up on your under end lane lights come on oh [ __ ] damn it how's axe come up with nicknames now you're just making the tonton the grand champs go harder to reach it now I want to kiss them off then we've done everything well I kept repeating as well not actually you know you're in the you should be in the final look final final stage of time's up kick these damn lock buttons oh I missed it damn okay Mary oh yeah so there it is oh hell yeah new code new mode see you here first as far as we know yeah [Music] these campsites they even went over the most few more for a good measure Thanks there's not much else to do thanks Jen yeah how did this yeah thanks for the bits let's do it again yeah you got first place you still try to kill small yeah its kill smoke this round totally different goals now hey thanks nap that's freaky that's good yeah man that's the only thing that goes missing is some badass oh yeah we see it's some like thumpin back [Music] alright smog did he like the whole time you've had did he always talk like that or just yeah he had pretty sauce mmm he said the same things over and over again he's got a lot more lines now we would truly make that insane lizard mode is I would imagine that it is harder ring recut recode the final mode so that it's either a different experience [Music] just work like the most insane amount of points you've ever heard of if you complete every single note on the way there but that's alright right yeah so you might oh yeah you know they'd have to change just just if someone crazy like Earl D'Python Anghelo I'll keep that one did it they don't have to change in order to do that they would have to change that role set to work like you'd have to breathe you'd have to be able to replay mode or don't do that and just make it so like don't be able to replay them but have the code in there that if you do happen to complete them all just have something edge to it that gives you that I don't know if that would even be worth pudding because there's nobody that I doubt anybody will ever get there [Music] small is going down just a few feet first time the survey knows I personally haven't killed someone although I've never really made a goal seen fit so I've always just played this game for points since I've owned it [Music] so a code okay she's five more jackpots and I'll keep track of them don't do that that was a phone book [Applause] [Music] all right I'll take here and thanks for watching [Music] I love the in-between wizard see if you can look up well I guess we can the Battle of I don't look up that let's see what the qualifiers are oh it's just D dwarf okay yeah I know I just didn't know a qualified it nope Lazarus dude that game is gonna be fun to go back and watch you can like I've just off the top of my head oh I got most of the way there I was already not downplaying the game at all but it's gonna be fun just to watch the breaks that we got cuz there's I want a self topping at least like three or four nice friendly friendly lame-o for sure Lazarus let's shoot me the ball was you sitting next to that philosopher go Steve that's crazy I was like man I'm getting all the luck here yeah the left flipper seems to be harder to backhand around yeah bird oh this thing's nuts so nice [Music] still get this one is fun modes work a little rounding a drop party that's come on do it nice shot drivers are adding value and then bagging is the shot you want to hit all bagging yeah sits in the pot oh yeah so this dropped our friend is adding value to the baggage [Music] but yeah we're going after small get I don't think I made a very very much progress far sure why number two our super jackpot / Jurgen credit two more jackpots if you look in the top left quadrant screen tells you how many jackpots are left one more this oscillator I can't tell you in a minute but it looks like great orbits in the holy moly [Music] got a super for Beast yeah you just got super for beast night she's sitting in one more jackpot this isn't target no the right orbit is the only thing flashing fire nice all right now I'm gonna say hold it on that left now hold it now stage your flow just slowly let out the right flipper button so you can hit your last jackpot unit yep slowly let it out no no I'm saying like a whole like you wanted to still hold the right button but slowly let it out yeah for staging yeah see I've never done that before yeah so hold it here and you can practice it first second okay so just slowly let out the button keep going there you guys see boom and then so if you had trapped or that's what I wanted you to do so you could get out of the way and be able to hit that spinner crap I don't understand why I didn't hit the spinner anyways I thought if you just activate the spinner - I think that there's an illusion opto or any sensor on that or the a gate switch or something some games do that like World Cups soccers like that try thing other games for the spinner water hot shoulda trusted alright Smaug we're coming for you we're coming for you hey thanks nap we'll see you later I need that lock warm sorry if I'm not saying warmer I answer your question if you're just a total total noob to the game it's it's basically it's basically starts mode which is the screen yeah you got your green rollovers in the front of the game right in the middle of the plate over there yeah so these guys here see I have one flash of L once I hit that I'll light another Locker there to the right ramp here yeah so you do that three times and you're in multiball and you can use your ring - well you can use your ring post when you need you need your lock rollovers the light Sherlock if you want to start a mode you use your ring to postpone your line but just getting into small multiball little will progress you quite quite far in the game that's where you can kind of breathe the screen figure out the basis of the game is to get your five marking stands which will qualify your personal is your own [Music] yeah so lighting your regular locks does light your mood locks I was watching that so I got that defeat of azog mode lint and I've and I've locked a mode ball so I need your help like tell me what to do in this mode if I could marry [Music] yep okay so I'm in there so help me yeah that's out of all definitely wanted a for you too hips I have to tell me an issue either with the dummy two shots right Luke okay right orbit okay the captive ball will hide the Beast okay so he's blocking your shower right now trying to get 30 seconds 23 seconds Jeremy's just kind of laughed at you now captain ice there's probably just a few seconds to get a shot which I was just that one time it it's hot time with the right Bluebird no [ __ ] the time was right over in hell I wanted to stage and hit the right of it watch sure oh yeah good point of time I didn't know what you're saying I thought your same time there shot okay so you wanted me to get more time that definitely makes sense [Applause] [Music] nice anytime 20% I definitely pass in this locks I won wall to a ball that is what makes this movie dick eulogy deep blocks that the entire time on purpose hey I thought that was just your base being up from unit anyway but that's not as part of her hat stinks that's a tough mode all right so I'm seriously try and complete all these prepares so this is shoot captain ball yeah but that that mode that we were just in that's the that's the big badass that's the part yeah so if you complete that and get to the the mini reserve mode it will be worth quadruple the score which if you find a complete targets avoid drop targets okay it's gonna be tough to do with all these Falls everywhere next row that one is the one that has the crazy King that that guy with the crown that crazy-looking a goblin with the crown yeah oh wait happily shots yeah just so everybody knows that see you need the blue shot to get the shoe truck [Music] it's still left ran shot the drops are good drop targets to the rim where you're getting a ton of time offer and progress I guess keep an eye on that progress okay you 5% progress each time you hit that ramp drops are good we're five percent for each okay one of those elf over there shot 70 now yeah we got it on then wait okay so every second table calories are okay it's definitely a good strategy to start with the left ramp on this mode just because they've really bought this time on that he's got a 95 percent so it looks like one more shot all right now let's get to that way see how crazy we can go in it well if you get the chance and check my status yes Betsy make sure you know what you guys want to check that out for that bonus a lot of times it can be at a ball I've actually seen one whereas two times play field what's that for the remote for that moat whenever it's loading the wind lance and your bonus or hello Charlie I thought that was your specific marriage did then I don't know if it's specific to the modes or if it's random let's see why I need airborne for tier mode so yeah we need spinners and we cap I'll go I'll go finish first good I'm warmer we got you know I have an Aerosmith Ellie guardians the galaxy probe these are the two games next to us down on the other side of the basement just picked up a Godzilla Freddy Freddy is a nightmare on Elm Street Rob

you want to hit we want it to be smacked back okay I hit one and I think that the arrows actually have something to do with that I guess for you can continuously hit beasts the more that does those jackpots become work the higher their value so I could you know that one was per yellow the yellow arrow I'm actually going to come up those that's orange they're starting over I think I'm reading this right so now it's going they're gonna get like closer to lay out all right yeah okay I think they don't let's go like red white blue for the highest value like that right there like I like with the red red wine no orange white the flash different colors yeah I'm actually you know one listen to me unless you're just not trying to kill small before you go under the fire but you don't really
