- Rock Fantasy is a game to let you experience the thrill of being a star
- in a rock group. You get to see first hand how the fabled rock group, The
- Rock Makers , came into being and became a star band. The band consists
- of lead singer Jerry K., guitarist Pete, bassist Lyle and drummer Mad
- Dog D.
-
- Make videos, perform on stage, write songs, and watch the groupies go
- wild. Assemble the band with all of the instruments required to perform.
- Fire the cannon during a concert for explosive action!
-
- Following is a list of major playfield components that will be referred
- to in this document. The number beside each component also appears in
- the accompanying diagram (RFTABLE.PCX).

- 2.The Stage
- 3.Front of the Stage/Stage Guards
- 4.Road To Stardom Lane
- 5.Stage Tunnel Lane
- 6.Letter Wheels

-
- At the start of each ball, aim for the skill shot target as indicated
- by the dots display.
-
- Hint: Carefully plunge the ball into play to set up your opening shot
- when the skill shot is for the small upper flipper.
-
- Use the upper right flipper to blast the ball up the Warm Up Ramp(1) for
- repeated loops of increasing value. The ball can also be gated to go down
- the left side Stage habitrail (2) for a possible Dance Across the
- Stage (13).
-
- The more equipment you collect for the band via the Equipment drop
- targets (9), the more you get to dance!
-
- Also with the upper right flipper, you can shoot at the People In Line
- drop targets in front of the Ticket Booth hole (16). Once you have your
- tickets, the ball will go to the Night Club hole (15), where you might be
- eligible for a valuable Door Prize!
-
- Hints : Try using the small left flipper to shoot the Night Club hole. You
- can also cheat to get to the Ticket Booth by a backhand shot from the lower
- left flipper!
-
- One of the other things you'll want to concentrate on is writing songs by
- spelling words at the Letter Wheels (6). Two letters are always spotted
- there. Hitting the targets in front of the wheels awards you the letter
- spotted. Your goal is to spell the words MULTI, EXTRA, BONUS and VIDEO.
-
- If you spell MULTI and start singing the multiball song, the groupies at
- the Front of the Stage (3) will be go wild, stampede past the Stage Guards
- onto the stage for a multiple ball frenzy of action!
-
- During multiball, all playfield values are increased significantly to help
- you get on the high score list, so hit as many targets as possible.
-
- Hint : Dancing across the stage (13) during multiball is very valuable!
-
- If you spell BONUS, you'll be laughing all the way to the bank with lots
- of point-scoring goodies.
-
- If you spell EXTRA, check out the Vacation Fund lane (11) where you'll get
- yourself and extra ball for the game!
-
- The ultimate is to spell VIDEO so you can watch the Rock Makers video on
- TV!!!
-
- Hint : When the TV turns on, shoot the ball over it!
-
- Lets check out the Front of the Stage (3) again. To get the groupies there
- so they can stampede the stage for multiball, you must lock the balls in
- the trough behind the Stage Guards. You can only do this when the gap
- between the guards is large enough for the ball to get through.
-
- Another major objective in the game is to get recording contracts from the
- Recording Company (7). To get in the building, you must tip the Doorman (8)
- first. Once in, you'll deal with those tough execs. But they're not so bad,
- as they hand out lots of very valuable awards there! As you make your way
- to the top, the awards get bigger.
-
- Remember to keep gathering equipment for the band by knocking down all of
- the Equipment drop targets (9). Also knock the Group drop targets (10) in
- order to collect the band members together. Doing so may light up other
- targets for big points and spot you Letter Wheel letters also!
-
- One last thing. Let's not forget the Cannon (12)! Aim the cannon with the
- left or right flipper buttons to make the shot you want to the Road To
- Stardom lane(4), Recording Company hole(7) or Ticket Booth(16).
