Tee'd Off is a pinball machine designed by Ray Tanzer and Jon Norris and released by Gottlieb in May 1993.
The table is often compared to No Good Gofers by Williams and features a Caddyshack type theme. [1] An animatronic gopher named Gunther [2] shrug shoulders in sync with voice during game play and sometimes during attract mode at the top of the backbox and mocks the player. [3]
The game has a hole in one shot at the top, [4] a roulette wheel toy, [1] 3 flippers, 1 pop bumper, 2 vertical upkickers, 3 slingshots, 2 kick-out holes, 2 bullseye targets, 1 four-bank drop target, 1 captive ball and 1 captive ball spinner below center of playfield. [3]
The main objective of the table is to complete all 9 holes in right order. [2] The game includes a pitch and putt mini playfield and mini-games like find-the-gopher. [5] After all holes are lit an award is given depending on how many times all holes have been completed. The game has 5 modes that are started by shooting the volcano when lit. Completing all modes lights the big score target. [6]
Tee'd Off is a playable licensed table in The Pinball Arcade for several platforms and also included in the Pinball Hall of Fame: The Gottlieb Collection .
Pinball games are a family of games in which a ball is propelled into a specially designed table where it bounces off various obstacles, scoring points either en route or when it comes to rest. Historically the board was studded with nails called 'pins' and had hollows or pockets which scored points if the ball came to rest in them. Today, pinball is most commonly an arcade game in which the ball is fired into a specially designed cabinet known as a pinball machine, hitting various lights, bumpers, ramps, and other targets depending on its design.
