Funhouse is a pinball machine produced by Williams in 1990. Designed by Pat Lawlor, its most recognizable feature is Rudy, a talking interactive doll head.
This table is included in the compilation video games Pinball Hall of Fame: the Williams Collection and The Pinball Arcade.
Rules[]
The main goal of the game is to take control of Rudy's fun house by advancing the clock to midnight and putting Rudy to sleep.
Midnight Multiball[]
Making shots and hitting switches advances the clock. At 11:30, Rudy becomes unhappy with the player and two balls can be locked in the Hidden Hallway; the first lock changes the lock to 11:45, and the second to midnight.
At midnight, Rudy goes to sleep and snores. Shooting the ball into his open mouth awards a million points and starts Midnight Multiball. The trapdoor is lit for Million Plus scoring and opens for 2 million points. Once scored, shooting the center ramp opens the trapdoor again for 3 million points, etc, up to 10 million points, or until Midnight Multiball ends.
Mystery Mirror[]
Shooting the Mystery Mirror scores one of several awards, including a Quick Multiball and a Super Frenzy after collected them all.
Frenzy[]
Qualified on the Crazy Steps, Frenzy is a timed round started at the Trapdoor. All switches score. Super Frenzy, available after collecting every Mystery Mirror award, acts similarly but at higher value.
Other Rules[]
Each Rudy hit adds 50,000 points to the end of ball bonus (or an instant 1 million points during Quick Multiball, or if the Million light is lit) and a Rudy Gulp while he is talking awards 250,000 points.
