    If a pinball palace suddenly sprung up containing Theater of Magic, Cirque Voltaire, Funhouse, and other faves, this multiball Miss might have a better receptacle for her quarters, but until such a glorious day dawns, she'll keep feeding them into CACTUS CANYON AT ACE BAR. Fifty cents buys you a generous five balls, the action of the flippers is excellent, the multiballs achievable if not facile, the game logic comprehensible, and the sound effects unparalleled.
