This game has fatal flaws, namely the center ramp. I shopped one out and had rolled the score (99M+) by the 5th test game, and that's with yellow rubbers on the center ramp entrance. If you're playing for score, this is absolutely a one-shot game all day, every day, no exceptions. If you can force yourself to play all aspects of a game, or are just bad at repetitive ramp shots, it might have a bit of staying power. Disconnecting the center ramp 'made' switch also (sorta) fixes the problem.

Bottom line: Taxi does everything PF does, just much better and more challenging.

If you have flipper hop on the right inlane making the center ramp hard, that sorta fixes the problem as well.

As for Taxi, it's a perfect comparison, because it's practically the same ruleset as PF, just a different playfield. Collect passengers/villians. Collecting one lights lock for 2ball MB. 2ball has minor objective but no jackpot. Score Jackpot by collecting all passengers/villians then making timed shot. Even the skillshots are similar. The one difference: Taxi's playfield layout, specifically the use of ramps, smokes PF's layout.
