Shaken, Not Stirred: The Q Branch's Guide to James Bond 007 Pinball

James Bond 007 brings George Gomez's career full circle. The layout and some rules of the game heavily resemble his design debut in Corvette, a personal favorite game of mine, but after 30 years of video game and pinball development, this game perfectly demonstrates his evolution as a designer.

Keys to the Game

Shoot the right ramp twice to start villain modes. Follow the lit arrows to complete them and shoot flashing shots for more points. A percentage of the points awarded during villain modes are scored in end-of-ball bonus.
Shoot the side ramp for henchmen modes, which behave very similarly to villain modes but with different shot sequences. Only one side ramp shot is required for the first henchman mode.
Shoot the left eject to light the left ramp for Jetpack Multiball. Shoot the center loop quickly to lock in the value and make the flashing shots for jackpots, with a super jackpot & add-a-ball available after scoring enough.
Complete the drop targets and lock 3 balls at the center loop for Bird 1 Multiball. Make three jackpot shots from the upper flipper before time runs out for a multiball extension, and light the super jackpot at the rocket by scoring lit jackpot shots.
Play one villain mode, one henchman mode, and both multiballs to light the right ramp and left eject for Bond, James Bond multiball. Within just over a minute, complete every shot twice followed by the side ramp in this 2-ball multiball.
Complete the SPECTRE targets to increase the Bird 1 Multiball jackpot values and light the Goldfinger target for SPECTRE weapon hurry-ups. The three hurry-ups on the left side of the circle are the most valuable.
Various shots around the playfield correspond to different Q Branch gadget modes and Bond Women lit at the upper loop. Shoot the upper loop when flashing to collect Bond Women, then press the action button to activate them for a timed playfield multiplier – up to 7x!
