Jungle Lord

Jungle Lord is a 1981 pinball machine designed by Barry Oursler and produced by Williams pinball. It features a Tarzan influenced theme, a two-level playfield and a magnetic ball saver ("Magna Save").

Jungle Lord is the second of the four two-level System 7 games that Williams produced in 1980/1, the others being Black Knight, Pharaoh and Solar Fire.

The design of the upper playfield is similar to Black Knight, but incorporates a "self-contained mini bagatelle style 'chamber' playfield, found on the top left-hand corner", with four lanes that spell L-O-R-D. The lower playfield includes a bank of three drop-targets and two bulls-eye targets. The upper and lower playfields each have two flippers.

The early production of the game had a red cabinet, and around 100 units were made. The later ones had a blue cabinet and the tiger artwork was slightly changed.

The game is controlled with two buttons on each side of the cabinet, one on each side for the flippers, and the other to control the magna-save.

A primary feature is a timed multiball which starts after the player completes the L-O-R-D lanes.

The game includes an innovative scoring feature called "Double Trouble", a drop target feature that engages when the player hits the five drop-targets on the upper playfield.

Unlike on the predecessor Black Knight, the magna-save is activated by the player for up to 5 time units earned from hitting various targets, rather than for a fixed period of time.
