Sea Wolf is a Williams game from the late 50's that I found at the VFW in Ann Arbor

The Pros:
The art pax on this game is SOLID! Sea Wolf features An unusual and very interesting PF layout. Reverse flippers near the top, and a more tradtitional flipper layout by the bottom of the game. A true skil shot that activates the appearing/disappearing pop bumper. Lots of nudging during this game means that every contact that the ball on the PF has, counts. A good skills game in that sense. There is nowhere to hide on the lower flippers and while I usually don't care for gobble holes, this one is not easy to drop into. In fact scoring that gobble hole special is one of the harder things to do on this table, ok, it's not hard. It is near impossible.


The Cons:
If the game is not well taken care of, this deck can be boring. Getting the bumper up is huge for scoring and making the upper half of the PF worth playing. The rubbers must be fresh on this game or the lower PF is REALLY difficult to stay in play with.

The Takeaway:
If you can find a copy of this deck in good operating condition, play it and enjoy the game. Not too many games were made with a disappearing pop bumper, and this one is a hoot when set up and maintained well.
