Jack-Bot (styled JACK•BOT) is a 1995 pinball game designed by Barry Oursler and Larry DeMar, and released by Williams. It is the third game in the Pin-Bot series.

Description

This game has a futuristic casino theme. Jon Hey created the music and sound which included an unused new arrangement of the famous Pin-Bot theme previously composed for Williams Pinball by Chris Granner.

Mortal Kombat 3 features a reference to Jack•Bot: one of the game's Kombat Kodes displays the text, "Hold Flippers During Casino Run", on the bottom of the screen. By holding both flippers at the start of a "Casino Run", it is possible to receive an MK3 hint.

Digital Versions

A licensed digital version of this table was released to The Pinball Arcade by Farsight Studios for multiple platforms in April 2015 along with its predecessors, Pin-Bot and The Machine: Bride of Pin-Bot. Unlicensed digital versions also exist on Visual Pinball that runs on Windows.
