Description
[edit]Cue Ball Wizard has a two and three ball Multiball and an oscillating captive ball kicker at the upper playfield. Its most noticeable feature, a full-sized captive cue ball that can be used to hit two elevated targets, is placed below on the lower playfield.[2]
The ramp is the game's most important shot, as it has to be hit once to light it up for the wagon wheel award.[3] In the wagon wheel are all the modes the player must finish to reach Pool Ball Mania.[4]
