Description
Cyclone was the 2nd machine from Williams after Comet depicting the Coney Island amusement park. The game has no multiball which is not typical for its era. The next sequel was Hurricane in 1991.
A revolving mystery wheel is placed in the backbox - ranging from Zilch to 200k, Extra Ball, and Special. A ferris wheel one on the playfield carries the ball for a portion of its rotation.
The playfield features bommerang, comet, spookhouse, and cyclone shots. Images on the moving ferris wheel depict a young couple kiss as it turns. The art on the side of the backbox features an asian type dragon and on the side of cabinet a carnival type design.
