Playing tips for The X Files

General

The main tournament strategy is cabinet MB(2 hits and a lock at cabinet) all day. Jackpot sequence is left ramp, left ramp, right ramp, file cabinet

General

Trivia answer: Mulder joined the FBI at age 28.

General

Build jackpot value by completing spot target banks.

General

Mode awarded at FBI scoop is random.

General

Truth MB has jackpots at every shot.

General

Terma mode lights a hurry up at left ramp. Which can be worth 420,000 immediately. This value is then lit at every shot till mode times out.

General

Truth MB lights jackpots at all shots, but is much harder to start compared to the cabinet.

General

The game awards one pity shot at cabinet per ball drain. So MB will be available there on ball 3 even if you never aim for it.

General

Super pops can be earned somewhat easily but reset every ball.

General

The inner loops can be dangerous if hit at the wrong speed(kind of weak). They can feed right down the middle.

General

"Believe the lie" happened in 4th season. We saw that at Buffalo Pinball Summer Open '17.

General

Shoot left ramp three times to start Tooms-mode. Bash the "plunge" button as fast as you can for 4 seconds to earn easy points.

General

Shoot right ramp 3 times to spell FBI & open sewer hole for mode. At start of each ball, only one right ramp shot is required to open hole.

Multiball

Choosing Mulder makes it easier to get the filing cabinet MB, picking Scully makes it easier to start "Truth" multiball (shoot all lit "x"s)

Multiball

You can achieve multiball fairly easily at low risk by hitting the center filing cabinet repeatedly. Multiple multiball can occur also
