Junk Yard is a pinball game released by Williams Electronics in 1996. The game was advertised with the slogan "The meanest game in the whole darn town.".[1]
Description
The playfield of Junk Yard contains different toys e.g. a crane with a wrecking ball - a pinball hanging from a chain, a toilet that flushes the ball and a doghouse with an attack dog.[1][2]
The game rules of Junk Yard are not very deep but the gameplay is not easy. The player has to find parts in the junk yard to construct different tools and vehicles as seen on the blueprint in the center of the playfield. Once constructed an associated adventure mode starts. A devil and angel give tips to the player on what to do. Slingshots are lit by controlled lights, so either the angel or devil can be lit. In one video mode players have to shoot the dog with a toaster, but the game contains also video modes featured in other pinball game, i.e. from Attack from Mars.[3]
