About this game

Judge Dredd was released by Bally Midway WMS in 1993.

Description
Based on the Judge Dredd comics (not the movie), Judge Dredd is a Bally/WMS widebody "superpin" pinball machine. It has two differeng game modes. Regulation play, which is a 3 ball game mode, and "Supergame" which is a multiball focused special mode with an alternate ruleset. Judge Dredd is notable for having no pop bumpers. Just ramps and cool shots!
Trivia
The Prototype for Judge Dredd featured the Deadworld more prominently, allowing balls to dock with it and orbit the planet. Production games removed this feature out of concerns balls would get stuck. This can be modded back in easily. The criminal in "35 years for arms dealing" is the girl getting kissed from "Creature from The Black Lagoon". The criminal in "15 years for auto theft" is the snackbar operator from "Creature from The Black Lagoon".
Instructions
Press the yellow button for regulation play. Press the green button for supergame.
