Noteworthy features
- The coolest feature on the 1965 Gottlieb Bank-A-Ball is the animated backglass. A player can quickly determine the balls that have been made during the game by glancing at the backglass. The backglass balls are true to billiards color schemes which adds an authentic feel to the feature.
- Flippers (2), Pop bumpers (3), Slingshots (2), Standup targets (7). Two backbox animations: at start of game, billiard table in backglass shows all balls lit up and all mechanical balls above it are reset out of view. Hitting lit numbered target on playfield turns off corresponding lit ball in backglass and mechanically drops that ball into view.
- Maximum displayed score is 1,999 points.
Trivia
- The Add A Ball version of this game is Flipper Pool.
