This game definitely has the one more game feature. Lots to shoot at from the B-I-G to the 5 drop targets, roll-overs when lit, the vari-target, etc. Really like the double bonus feature on the last ball, gives you hope to get a replay/free game. Getting the B I G and all the drop targets, each time you knock down all 5 drop targets you get a free game, easier said then done. One of my favorite games to play.

I really enjoyed playing this game. The machine I played didn’t have a working timer, so I can only imagine how cool that would be. The upper and lower playfield, the spinner, drop targets, multi ball all added to a really fun time. I can’t wait to play this game again.

For one of the last pins of the EM era, this on the fun factor to play was just ok. Love the spinners and the logic for scoring. Played a few times and well there are other EM’s that I would rather play.

The backglass is awesome, the zipper flippers are cool and the 3 free ball gates are fun. I dunno, this game didn’t have the “I want to play it one more time” and isn’t that what it’s all about. Was disappointed.

Two player version of Jungle Queen which is 4 player (same exact game). Really enjoyed playing this game. The four flippers spacing works really well and the two smaller flipper shoot well to the 10 drop targets. Great game for the end of the EM era, would like to find one to buy.

I really enjoyed playing this pin. Lots of shots both short and long, had that one more game factor which is what a good pin is all about. Looking forward to playing this one again, and hopefully adding to my collection one day.

For a 1967 machine, this must have been an awesome state of the art pin when released, cause it’s still really fun to play today. The upper flippers, roto-target, awesome. Once the ball is in the lower part of the playfield it’s sometimes difficult to get it back up to upper playfield. Lower playfield there are four targets to shoot at. Lots of fun, love the bells they used back then before they replaced with chimes. Really good EM.

I really love playing the old EM’s, for 1962 this one must have been a blast back then. Love the history, manually loading the next ball is so cool. The backglass, playfield art is awesome and I always love the bells that were used before they changed to chimes, what an awesome sound. Had fun playing!

One of the top Gottlieb EM’s of all time. For me has that strong ‘one more game’ and it keeps me coming back for more. Advancing the sequence from 1 to 9 lights the specials. 10 drop targets, once all 10 go down they re-set which is awesome, hitting a blue and white at same time gets 5,000 score. Lots to shoot for (rollover) targets when lit, drop targets, or to the right of upper field for number rollovers. Love this game, great artwork on backglass and PF.

One of my all-time favorite games. Love drop targets so 15 of them what else could I want. Upper flipper and pop bumper great for knocking down the aces. Even though an SS, need to play 5 balls since each ball has different rules or scoring objectives (the 10 drop target on ball 1……five drop targets in upper left…aces and joker on ball 5). Love this game, trying to find one to buy.

Fun game, oldest pin that I’ve ever played. Pretty basic playfield back in that time period. Had a good time playing and the historical significance of playing a machine that laid the foundation of other EM’s to follow put a big smile on my face.

Felt a sense of honor to be able to play this game. One of the oldest games I’ve ever played. 1962 was a great year, machine was born same year as me! This game as others from the late 50’s and very early 60’s are sometimes not as fun as the games that came later on, but the historical significance of playing a game that is 60 years old was taken into account. Pop bumpers, rollovers and a center target that’s about it. Out lanes come into play easily, so nudging becomes important, I tilted pretty quickly, more sensitive than I thought for an older game. Scoring logic is easy to figure out and getting all 4 rollovers can be a challenge. This game put a smile on my face, can’t wait to try it again.

Pretty cool game. One of the best EM games Gottlieb produced. Really like the placement of the 4 flippers, the upper are in great spots and size to pick off the 10 upper drop targets. If you like drop targets, you’ll love this one. Fun game that kept me playing.

Fun game to play, the drop targets are angled well where they are a tough shot to hit. The center saucer looks easier to find, but the ball does not go in more often than not. Getting the ‘C’ lane at the top of play field is another challenge. All in all a good game to play. Kept my interest.

Really enjoyed playing this game. The four flippers as spaced apart work really well and the two smaller flippers shoot well to the 10 drop targets. Great game for the end of the EM era, will start looking for one to buy. There is a two player version Jungle Princess.

Awesome backglass, cabinet and playfield artwork. Fun game to play, hope to get a chance to play again.

Plenty of shot selections, which made playing this game fun. Wasn’t a game though that made me want to play more than a few times.

Super fast game. The table I played drained too many times when ball is initially put into play, so I’m looking forward to playing a different machine. I can see why this table has so many fans though, fastest table I ever played.

Fun game from Bally. Big fan of drop targets and spinners so what’s not too like. There are other games from this period that I would rather play though. Five more drop targets on the right side would have been an improvement in my opinion, more to shoot for.

Really like this game. Have a lot of fun playing this one which is the bottom line. Lots to shoot at, very fair with play time and drains. Always look forward to getting a chance to play this pin.

Great game. Really like the silver/black with red theme, has a unique look from other games. Lots to shoot for, keeps me coming back for one more game.

Game is very challenging. Wish the upper play field was a bit larger with more to do there. The saucer on top is cool, which gives you a chance to spell out ‘LORD’ on the mini pin game in upper left. Not one of my favorites, wish there was more to shoot for, but this one keeps me coming back for some reason. Watch up for the drains off the ramps.

This game keeps me coming back for more. Love the shots, plenty of drops and strategy. Backglass, playfield and cabinet are one of the best ever. Always fun to play.

Like the theme, backglass and cabinet. The kick out hole at the top of the playfield with the pop bumper just below it makes for fun bumps and nudges. Lots to shoot for and always love a spinner. Not a fan of the scissors/double flipper on the left, makes for awkward shots from the lower left flipper. Not a big fan of this game. Doesn’t make me want to play again, which is the bottom line of a good to great game.

Not my favorite. I’m not a fan of tables where I lose sight of the ball on the upper most part of the playfield. Was ok to play, played a few times probably not interested in playing again.

The four flippers work well for this game, keeping the ball on the upper half of the playfield is so rewarding. This game tests your nudging skills, the one I was playing never tilted so my scores got much better over time by keeping the ball from draining. Beware of the tilt though as you would lose your bonus which is important on this game. This one keeps me coming back. I would love to have this game, will be keeping an eye out for one. The game can get frustrating but I’m always ready to play again. Another winner from Bally.

Great artwork by Dave Christensen. The backglass is iconic and in my opinion, one of the best of the EM era. Lots to shoot at, love the spinner. The flags are cool and the 5000 special target is not easy to hit. I can play this game over and over and that is the bottom line to a good machine. Always look forward to playing this one.

I tried to like this pin, just nothing there that would make me want to play it again. Too much open space, not a fan of rollovers or the bumpers being down so low on the table. Nothing special, just not for me I guess.

To me, Little Joe is one of the best from the EM era. The mushroom bumpers (3) change the one dice every time hit. From free ball to open gate (2) your shot selection changes constantly. The total of both dice determine the various bonuses that you can aim for. This is a game that I have always enjoyed playing for the last 50 years. There are not many out there, if you ever see one for purchase buy it if the price is fair.

Fun game and theme. I played at an arcade and I’ll admit the most upper part of the playfield was hard to see with the lighting in the arcade (glare). If I get a chance to play again somewhere else, I’ll update. Lots of places to aim your shots. The saved ball was very nice for fast drains as it gave a 2nd life. Look forward to finding a better place to play this game, though I must admit this pin played fast with good strong flipper action.
