History Pinball / DoctorWho

* WizardMode: Not an actual Wizard Mode, but the three Davros Jackpots in multiball fall in this line. You have to start multiball, score all the other available jackpots, then hit all the Time Expander targets to enable each Davros Jackpot (once for the Single, twice for the Double, three times for the Triple). Lose one ball, and you drop back one jackpot level and have to work your way up again.

** When you hit an unlit R-E-P-A-I-R target, it lights up and all the other unlit ones start flashing. You have to hit one of these to keep the sequence going, or else they all go out and you have to start again. If you have the Fourth Doctor lit, hitting any target will spot an extra one. Once you have all six lit, they start awarding progressively larger values until you lose the ball.

* TimedPowerUp: The playfield multiplier gradually decays with time. The Sixth Doctor slows the rate of decay.

* The Sixth Doctor increases the playfield multiplier twice as fast (by 1.0 per loop shot instead of 0.5) and slows the rate at which it drops back. This multiplier affects '''everything''' in the game.

In-game, lighting each of the seven Doctors affects the gameplay in a distinct way. For example, the Third Doctor extends the time limit for spelling W-H-O (needed to light and collect extra balls), while the Sixth Doctor racks up scoring multipliers faster and keeps them in effect longer. The player can choose one at the start of each ball and can light more through various means, such as completing the VideoMode or building up Transmat power via the pop bumpers.

* GottaCatchThemAll: Not absolutely required, but collecting all seven Doctors makes it much easier to achieve high-scores. They can be collected by powering up the Transmat and hitting the Transmat target, completing Video Mode with the active Doctor, or scoring an Emperor Dalek jackpot in multiball (which lights every Doctor at once). You score a bonus for collecting them all one-by-one, and a larger one for doing it on a single ball.

* HurlItIntoTheSun: The Master's ultimate plan for the Doctors.

* GottaCatchThemAll: Not absolutely required, but collecting all seven Doctors makes it much easier to achieve high-scores. They can be collected by powering up the Transmat and hitting the Transmat target, completing Video Mode with the active Doctor, or scoring an Emperor Dalek jackpot in multiball (which lights every Doctor at once). You score a special bonus for collecting them all one-by-one on a single ball.

* OffModel: On the part of the backglass that counts the Doctors (the art from which is reused in the lower-left corner [[http://www.ipdb.org/showpic.pl?id=738&picno=4173&zoom=1 here]]), the first one looks a little...off.

* NiceHat: The Fourth and Seventh Doctors have their own.

* WritingAroundTrademarks: The "Roni Spheres" which bombard the First Doctor and Susan are the "bubble tripwire" death traps from ''Time and the Rani''. The name change came about because mentioning the Rani by name would have required a payment to her creators, Pip and Jane Baker [[note]]One wonders why they couldn't just be called "bubble deathtraps" or something generic[[/note]].

Creator/{{Sylvester McCoy}} and Terry Molloy (the incumbent actors as the Doctor and Davros respectively) provided custom speech for this game.

* YouDontLookLikeYou: Even though Creator/AnthonyAinley was the incumbent Master at the time of the game's release, the character is depicted as the Creator/RogerDelgado version instead due to a rights issue. Davros is also depicted as the Michael Wisher/David Gooderson incarnation despite being voiced by Terry Molloy.

* EasterEgg: See EverythingsBetterWithCows below.
* EverythingsBetterWithCows: The transmat target may yield an animation of a cow in the Doctor's attire if it's not sufficiently charged. The Fourth Doctor is a frequent victim of this.

* {{Combos}}: The W-H-O combo shot.

* BadassBeard: The Master.

* PlotTailoredToTheParty: Each of the Doctors changes the rules for a different section of the table.

* VideoMode: The chosen Doctor runs right from a Dalek, jumping over obstacles and eventually arriving at his TARDIS. One flipper button does a short jump, the other does a higher one. Certain obstacles cannot be cleared by shorter jumps.

The plot is as follows: TheMaster, desperate to get rid of the Doctor, teams up with Davros and the few Daleks he has left to destroy their shared nemesis once and for all. His plan is to use the "Time Expander", which can manipulate space and time events to interact with an entirely new time stream, to expand the Doctor's time stream to kill him. The main hurdle is trying to track down ''[[TheNthDoctor all]]'' [[TheNthDoctor of the Doctors.]]

Fortunately for him, the key is Earth. The Doctor likes to hang around Earth, and every incarnation of him winds up there at some point in time. With this, The Master aims to expand Earth's time and push them all into the sun.

In-game, lighting each of the seven Doctors affects the gameplay in a distinct way (for example, the Third Doctor extends the time limit for spelling W-H-O, while the Sixth Doctor racks up scoring multipliers faster and keeps them longer). The player is awarded one automatically at the start of each ball and can light more through various means, such as completing the VideoMode or building up Transmat power via the pop bumpers.

* GottaCatchThemAll: The seven Doctors must be obtained to progress, either through powering up the Transmat and hitting the Transmat target, completing Video Mode with the active Doctor, or scoring an Emperor Dalek jackpot in multiball (which lights every Doctor at once).

* PlotTailoredToTheParty: Each of the Doctors changes the rules for part of the game.

* ScoreMultiplier: Aside from the bonus multiplier, there is the Playfield Multiplier, which allows you to multiply any scoring (including Multiball jackpots and video modes) up to 4x its value. Lighting the Sixth Doctor extends the Playfield Multiplier timer, as well as increasing the shot number for the Cliffhanger ramp (i.e., it will increase by one instead of by 0.5 increments).

* WizardMode: Not an actual Wizard Mode, but the three Davros Jackpots in multiball fall in this line. You have to start multiball, score all the other available jackpots, then hit all the Time Expander targets to enable each Davros Jackpot (once for the Single, twice for the Double, three times for the Triple).

* WizardMode: Not an actual Wizard Mode, but the Davros Multiball fits the criteria - it's the final objective that awards quite a large amount of points.
