Summary
Deep dive into Cirqus Voltaire: mechanics, restoration, market pricing, and extended gameplay.
George and Dave from The Classic Pinball Podcast discuss and play Cirqus Voltaire, a 1997 Williams game featuring interactive backbox animation, a prominently featured ringmaster pop-up, multiple magnets, and a dark circus theme. The episode includes technical restoration details (rubber kit, LED display, added bell), gameplay mechanics explanation, pricing data from secondary market listings ($6,750–$12,500), and extended gameplay commentary as the hosts attempt to master the game's rules.
In this episode the guys review a game that Dave recently acquired and that George has never played. They are exploring and playing a game that is outside the late 70’s / early 80’s SS Bally, Stern and Williams arena. George explains to Dave how Adam Lefkoff lit this game up on a twitch video he watched from the Colorado Pinball Cooperative while trying to learn some of the game rules. They then proceed to play several games and try and navigate the rules. George names the ringmaster. Lots of fun. Come join the circus. Bonus feature: New Homepin products.
