the player.īlack Knight was not the first game to have electromagnets installed - an earlier example is Williams' Electronics Gorgar (the first "talking" pinball game), which features an area of the playfield that when hit, holds the ball on an electromagnet for a second or two while a speech call plays. Balls drained down the outlane in spite of using magna-save caused the machine to laugh at the player, reinforcing the theme of the game as an evil knight vs. The sequel to Black Knight abandoned the variable magna-save which had become standard at that point and reverted to a fixed time. Magna-save was activated by pressing one of two buttons placed on each side of the cabinet, just above the flipper buttons. The later games ( Jungle Lord, Pharaoh, Solar Fire, Grand Lizard) feature a variable type magna-save in that the magnet is energized as long as the player likes (up to the time they have earned) on Black Knight the machine controls the magnet time (adjustable by the operator from three to ten seconds). This was first of a series of four games that were both two-level and featured magna-save. This game is known for its two-level playfield (a first for a pinball game), and introduced the patented "Magna-Save", in which a player-controlled magnet is used to prevent outlane drains.
