Pyramid Ramp: 

 

Hit the Pyramid Ramp (4) once to activate it and again to begin the 1

st

 stage of the leveling Mission. As long 

as you do not lose your Ball, you do not have to activate it again thus just hit the Pyramid ramp once to level 
up again. 

 

Leveling (x3): 

Sub Mission

 

Simply score 10 Bumper hits to advance a level. The Orbits are blocked, making it even easier. After 
leveling up for the 3

rd

 time, the Pyramid Main Mission will become available at the Mission Hole 

(5). 

 

Pyramid: 

Main Mission

 

This Mission is a 3 Ball Multiball challenge; this Mission will have most Players on their Knees. I 
honestly believe that most of this Mission is luck based, so pray that Today is your day. Now to 
complete this Mission you must hit 6 randomly lit Ramps in addition to hitting the 4 MARS Targets 
(1) & 2 Galaxy Targets (10) when they are flashing without losing more than 1 of the 3 Balls in play. 
 
Now this is quite Hard to do, this Mission doesn’t have a timer so it’s just about endurance really. I 
would say your best bet of completing this Mission is to just focus on keeping the 3 Balls alive as 
long as possible because you will be more than likely hitting the Objects you need to be hitting like 
the Ramps etc. 

*Note -the more you activate this Mission the more used to the 3 Ball Multiball 

thus you keep them alive longer.*

  

If you find yourself going down to 2 Balls you will need to adapt your tactics a touch. Try to catch 
both on the Balls on the Left & Right Flippers, but remember don’t force the capturing of the Balls 
or you are going to lose 1 then you will have to restart the Mission. Now try to hit the remaining 
Targets - MARS Targets (1) & Galaxy Targets (10), you may notice you have some Ramps etc. that 
you need to hit I advise you to get the Targets done first but go ahead and do this part however it 
suites your play style. To hit the Targets you need to make very late aimed shots at the Targets with 
the Ball held with one of the Flippers. Try to do this with the other Ball on the Top of the Table 
perhaps going up a Ramp because if both are held at the same time while trying to hit a Target you 
can end up hitting the Ball out for a drain. 

*Tip - I found a good way to hit the MARS targets is to hit the Left Orbit (2), and keep your 
top flipper elevated, this will usually send the Ball in the direction of the MARS targets (1). 
You can hit the top Galaxy Targets (10) directly with a semi-late Left Flipper shot. If you hit it 
too late on the Flipper you'll end up hitting the Bumper and then you may lose the Ball. If you 
have a Ball Save activated remember…….. TAKE RISKS!*

 

 
With some luck you will finally manage to complete all the shots and targets, you will know this 
because the “lock is lit” will light up in front of the Pyramid Ramp (4). The final part of this Mission 
requires you to lock all your Balls in the Pyramid. If you're still on 3 Balls (I tip my hat off to you if 
you are), you're allowed to drain one of them which I would strongly recommend. Try to hold the 
Balls often if you can and send one of the Balls round the Left Orbit (2) (Use the Left Flipper) and 
then time your Top Right Flipper shot into the Pyramid Ramp. Having one Ball on each of the 
flippers is the best way to do this as you can safely try to hit the Pyramid Ramp knowing the other 
Ball is safely being held by the Right Flipper. After locking your 1

st

 Ball (or 2 Balls in case you 

decided not to drain one, which is Madness by the way). You will now only have one more Ball to 
lock into the Pyramid hit it into the Pyramid Ramp (4) to complete this truly epic Mission which I 
think is one of the hardest I have ever come across. Man if you lose the Ball at this stage I really am 
sorry for you, trust me I know the Pain of that.
