Cracker Jack 21



Version: 1
Category: VP 8.x - Bagatelle

Author(s): tiltjlp

Description:
A cracker Jack pin toy that won't make your fingers sticky. The Put & Take 21 game is difficult to win.
I don't know if this Cracker Jack pin toy was offered as a super prize or some other sort of promotion, but it's scoring is borrowed from an age old game call Put & Take, which also has been called 21.

Very simply, when you land a ball in a cup, points are either added, Put, or subtracted, Take, and at the end of the game, the person closest to 21 without going over wins. In this version I have also added regular pin game scoring, as well as using the original orange ball.

For the PinGame scoring, the cups on the playfield score 100 to 900, top to bottom. The 3 minus cups across the bottom score -100 X the number shown. As always, you'll do much better if you nudge, and in this game, you might want to avoid the scoring cups at times, trying tor the cups at thje bottom..If you win the Put & Take game with a score of 21 or less, your PinGame will be tripled.
