• Four flippers!
• Three-ball Multiball(TM) mode.
• Two-ball Multiball(TM) mode.
• A rotating Bookcase that moves to allow balls access to the hidden Vault
• A moving hand that actually comes out of the playfield and snatches the ball away!
• A replica of the Addmas Family's Electric Chair
• A "haunted" flipper which shoots the ball all by itself!
• "The Power"- "haunted" magnets that grab the balls and fling them in all different directions!

Shoot the "Bear Kick" ramp to light the Electric Chair, then shoot the Chair to play one of the 13 modes that this game offers! Complete all the modes and you get to "Tour the Addams Family Mansion"! This is a "wizard" mode where the game basically goes crazy! All Jackpots are lit, extra ball is lit, all awards are at maximum value, and topped off by crazy Three-Ball Multiball(TM) play! A definite test of your pinball playing skills!

Shoot the Bear Kick ramp when lit and the ball is diverted to a small flipper on the right side of the playfield, where the game actually hits the ball for you! The small flipper shoots the ball across the playfield and into the Swamp, where you get five times the usual points!

Get the ball to "Thing" in the upper right corner of the playfield and watch as the "Thing" hand comes up out of the playfield, grabs the ball, and disappears!

• We have logged just over 70 hours in the restoration of this game.

• All playfield parts have been removed and hand cleaned, or replaced with brand new parts where necessary. This includes light bulbs, posts, ramps, pop bumpers, wireform ball guides, flipper assembiles, under-playfield ramps, target banks, bumper assemblies, lamp PC boards, ball trough and associated parts, and any other parts that are installed on the playfield.

Wiring was replaced with brand new wires for added reliability (worn/broken wires on this unit are a common problem on Addams Family games).
• "Thing" hand scoop that kicks ball back into play from Thing hand was strengthened by welding joints to reinforce them and prevent any breaking in the future. Scoop welded at sixteen crucial stress points for added reliability. We'll guarantee this scoop won't break for as long as you own the game!

Factory- installed mylar still present in/around pop bumper and Electric Chair area, "Thing" flipper, and Swamp kickout/right lanes.
• Standup targets on playfield (11 total) have had their foam backing removed and replaced with brand new foam rubber for added durability and good looks.
• Score and instruction cards have both been reproduced for clean clear looks, and hard-laminated for durability, and to prevent against damage in the future- these look great!
• Both slingshot bumper assemblies have had their detector switches removed and hand-cleaned with tarnish remover for nice bright brass shine!
• "Power" electronic magnets under playfield have had their driver circuitry modified and individual fuses added for each of the three magnets. This prevents problems of magnets getting "stuck" on and overheating and often burning/discoloring the playfield surface (common problem on most Addams Family games). Our custom modifications will prevent against this problem occurring in this game in the future.

• All electronics (PC boards) in backbox checked and tested for proper operation and good looks (no burned connectors, etc.) Fuses all removed, checked, and proper values verified- replaced where necessary.
• Remote-mount battery holder installed for MPU board in backbox (See image below). This prevents damage to the valuable MPU board from accidental battery discharge or leakage, which can destroy the board. Batteries are now mounted off-board and risk of damage is eliminated. Brand new fresh batteries installed.

• "Cloud" assembly on top of backbox removed, cleaned, and polished inside and out. Flasher lamps under Cloud replaced with brand new bulbs (usually always burned out on most Addams Family games).

• Protective fender washers added under slingshot plastics to protect against damage.
• Electric Chair, Swamp, and Thing kickout scoops have all been reinforced to prevent breakage in the future- common problem on Addams Family games which makes the ball airborne after leaving scoop, which causes a streak of worn surface on the playfield in front of the scoop (there are no signs of such wear on the playfield on this game).
• "Power" magnets under playfield have had their driver circuitry modified by adding three individual fuses (one for each magnet). This gets around a factory design flaw that could cause one or more magnets to "lock on" and overheat, thus damaging the magnet and possibly the playfield. This modification will prevent failure and damage to the game in the future.
• Remote-mount battery holder for MPU board added in backbox. Includes quick-disconnect for easy MPU board removal from the game, if ever needed.
