Pinball Arcade: Gorgar

Gorgar (1979): was designed by Barry Oursler, a legendary designer who helped create many classics over two decades. His credits include: Pin-Bot, Cyclone, Comet, Space Shuttle, and Jungle Lord to name just a few. Gorgar was the very first "talking" pinball machine. With a vocabulary of seven words (Gorgar, Speaks, Beat, Me, You, Hurt, and Got), Gorgar is able to say phrases such as "Gorgar speaks", "Me Gorgar, beat me", and "You hurt Gorgar". It has a magnetic Snake Pit that holds your ball captive as he thunders, "Me got you". The audio also features a heartbeat sound that races faster and faster as the action of the gameplay builds up when the player is doing well. Over 14,000 units of this table were produced.
