I have provided some Windows Pinball hacks below to help enhance your pinball experience:
- 1max - Enter 1max on your keyboard to gain an extra ball during game play.
- bmax - Prior to play, enter the letters bmax on your keyboard. This will automatically launch another ball after the first ball is lost.
- gmax - Start a new game and enter gmax on your keyboard. This will enable the Gravity Well. When this is enabled, very softly launch the ball so that it enters the side of the pinball table and not through the top. You will then see the ball head towards the center circle.
- r - Press the r key any time during the game to promote your game rank status.
If anyone else has any interesting pinball hacks that work for them, please feel to provide them as a comment on this post.
