** Casino Run, which is enabled after you play all four casino games. You start with a bank of 100 million points and get one free spin on a slot machine to rack up more points and prizes (specials, lit extra balls, etc.). Then you can either cash out and end the round, or risk it and try to get another spin. If you take the risk, the ball is kicked into play and a 45-second timer starts; every switch/target adds 4 million to the bank, and you have to make a lit shot to get another spin and the same choice. If you run out of time or spin a bomb (without Pin*Bot whacking the machine to nudge it away or a bucket of water from an earlier spin to defuse it), the round ends and you lose the whole bank.

The game is themed around an intergalactic casino, with Pin*Bot and The Machine hosting four gambling games -- Pin*Bot Poker, Slot Machine, Roll the Dice, and Keno -- with several other methods of getting points. Eventually, you'll get to the [[WizardMode Casino Run]], where you spin a slot machine to rack up points and prizes while avoiding the [[{{Whammy}} bomb]].

One interesting game mechanic is that the player can cheat in most modes by mashing the Extra Ball buy-in button, letting Pin*Bot improve the outcome in some way. Every casino game offers a chance to go for double or nothing afterward.
