POTC,MB come to mind first

Doesn't POTC have a wizard mode (4 winds or something) that's known to be extremely difficult to achieve? I could be wrong because I don't know the game very well, but I tend to hear it tossed around in the more difficult side more often.

Anyways, back on the topic of easy wizard modes, I tend to get Tour the Mansion, Super Cellar Door, and Super Frenzy pretty often.

Breakshot. I think you can get to Cutthroat Countdown in as few as 9 flips. It's a pretty fun mode too.

GOT PRO and TRON come to mind. Though portal is tough to beat. But getting there is very achievable.

Scared Stiff is a totally fun, and totally attainable Wizard Mode.

It took me awhile to get the spider wheel multiball

HSII

TOM and TZ, too easy me thinks and once you have done them a few times they lose there appeal IMO.

I find that most of the Williams games have wizard modes that are achievable. Although that doesn't necessarily mean that they are fun to play. I can't think of any Williams game that has an unachievable wizard.
Of the Stern games, I'd say that T3 has probably the easiest wizard mode to achieve. IM, Jericho and Do or Die are not too far out of reach - as opposed to Do or Die Multiball.
The rest require too much for an 'average' player to get to wizard mode on anything like a regular basis.

I would say I am a good player, and have completed, or got to, the majority of Wizard modes for games I have owned - including Valinor(Lotr), Superhero(SM), Encore(ACDC), Final Battle(Avatar), End of Line(Met).

As for people saying that Tron or PotC have easy wizard modes, you're either playing a game set up WAY too easy, or you're just trying to make yourself seem better than you are. I have got to Portal once(despite getting to Sea of Simulation on a regular basis), never got to Gauntlet (despite getting to 4 winds numerous times) these are NOT easy wizard modes at all.

TOTAN ....spoiler alert..............................A kiss from the princess and a magic carpet ride for completing this game.

How?!? You have to complete three different pool games. Including rotation shooting 1-15 in order.

Reaching and beating Germany in the Finals of WCS is achievable, especially if you get the Advance Three Cities award from Striker.

Beg to differ - Try completing the SPIDER WEB!!!! Have you ever accomplished that goal? Do you know someone who has?

I own this game for over 2 years now and never rescued the princess...

What are the TZ goals???

Congo. No wizard mode, but I collected 100 diamonds, did the super multiball, and got a super jackpot 2 days after I got it. There's some other features to that game, but that's essentially how you "beat" it, and it's a hell of a lot of fun.

Doctor Who. Getting too and beating Davros is not that challenging.

Gosh, Tron? It is certainly straight forward and easy to understand the goals to reach portal but it is not easy to get to portal at all. Just completing light cycle multiball is a heck of an achievement.

Do or Die on Iron Man. Since all the work has to be done on one ball...hitting a shot two times is reachable....though there is still a lot of pressure.

You must mean the hurry up...not the do or die wizard mode multiball.

Johnny Mnemonic - Power Down. All you have to do is start the five modes (not complete them) and get 320Gb (which happens naturally during a decent game).

Even though it's not super hard to get to, I still think Power Down is one of the best wizard modes ever.

Totally agree with this.

NGG has a pretty easy compleable goal.

I am speaking of the hurry up.

I love the progression in Sopranos, and have reached Boss many times, but only completed it a couple of times. On occasion, I've failed, and wrapped around to Boss twice in a game - that's how to get a big score. It's a good challenge, but definitely beatable.

Would love to own this one some day...

Though I wouldn't necessarily say it is easy - it's definitely straightforward and attainable: Attack Mars mode on RFM.

WCS94 getting to the final match with Germany isnt too terribly hard

BOP for sure. Easiest.

SS, TAF, and TOM.

I dare anyone who says SS to prove they've completed the SPIDER WEB!

TOTAN is probably the easiest wizard mode, both to achieve and beat. Wish those modes away! Switch frenzy wizard mode!

I think the Call Your Shot feature can be used to instantly win pool games. Good luck with it, tough to setup and tough to make the shot, but nice if you can do it. BS isn't too hard even doing things normally.

I don't consider this one beat til you kill a Triple Davros. Remember.. "I'm not such an easy person to kill, Doctor!" I've gotten an 800M double 4X jackpot, but never a triple at any playfield multiplier...

Agree - that is super hard!

Jurassic Park, you just have to start every mode to get to System Failure, most of which time out. Hit the scoop, catch with left flipper, shoot the ramp, re lights the modes from the in lanes, shoot the scoop. Rinse, repeat. modes stack so just do that a bunch and start all the modes. System Failure is sweet.

This is hard, but nothing like Valinor or SDMEWM. Basically, you have to shoot the right ramp, shoot the spider hole, then not screw up the award selection by selecting a dupe. Repeat that process 16 times and you're golden. The game hands out extra balls like candy so you can marathon your way to it. I've done it twice, then sold the game.

The Scared Stiff mode is easy for most people to achieve.

Great point. I've killed a level 2 Davros probably ten times, never a level 3...there just isn't enough time available...

Jurassic park... This is the only game I can get the wizard mode...

Junkyard and congo come to mind as 2 that are fun and achievable. Also southpark is maybe to simple, but fun if you like the show.

Vacation jackpot on Whitewater would be one of the toughest Williams wizard modes.

CV

Getting to the Final Frontier on STTNG isn't that hard and probably the only game where you can start a wizard mode just by plunging too.

TZ isn't tough to get to if you just try nailing Doors...and since you can't "complete" it that makes it easier.

AS said above WCS is pretty easy.

Does kobayashi maru count as a wizard mode? Its pretty attainable on stern Star Trek

Doing all the modes on JD, then capturing the evil judges is pretty easy IMO.

JM
Tron
RFM

I think a lot of folks are missing an obvious choice. TAF - TTM is doable and a lot of fun. Easier than LITZ for sure. Once you learn the bounce and can post pass on any given TAF, TTM is certainly attainable.

Dirty Harry's is pretty easy to get to, but to actually make many arrests in, very difficult.

SM has battle royale which is achievable, super hero less so but still do-able

Wow...I love how many people just crush Portal on this thread.

Yeah for sure.

I am not a great player but I have gotten to Portal several times and get to SOS about 1 in 10 games. Maybe I just have my game dialed in? But yeah, I spend all my focus on completing Light Cycle and Gem. The rest tend to fall into place.
TAF Tour the mansion was easy as pie on my machine but not so easy on others. But I did have super predictable scoop ejects which makes a ton of difference IMO.
Getaway I find fairly easy to get to. I have gotten to TZ, MB and MMs Wizard modes once each at a friend's house but I don't get to play them that often to know if I was just having a good game or what.
Of my other games I currently own, SM Super Hero and TS' wizard mode I have only gotten to once. LOTRs TABA twice. JM's Powerdown I have seen a few times. XM and ACDC I have not been to.

I'm not that good.

I've been to Sea of Simulation numerous times (probably the best mini-wizard mode ever) and Portal a few times.

Tron is absolutely achievable unlike some other similar games.

TOTAN is a pretty fun wizard mode. Although, once you get there a few times by using the bazaar to collect jewels its quite easy.

The fun challenge is manual plunging and keeping the mode going, without losing, for as long as possible. The longer you go the more points you get.
