Play Time Scanner Online
Juggling two sets of flippers while the screen scrolls down—Volcano’s lanes light up, Ruins spits fireballs, and Saqqarah’s pyramid crumbles under your shots.
Konami released Time Scanner in 1990 as an arcade pinball game during a period when video pinball hybrids were experimenting with digital physics and layered objectives. It stood out for its ambitious attempt to merge traditional pinball mechanics with video game progression, offering players a journey through distinct historical eras instead of a static table.
You control two sets of flippers to keep the ball in play across a vertically scrolling playfield divided into themed screens like a volcanic area or ancient ruins. The main goal is to complete objectives on each screen, such as hitting specific targets to trigger events like making a pyramid crumble or lanes light up. The game demands precise timing and quick reflexes to manage the ball's momentum across changing environments, and the difficulty escalates as hazards like fireballs and narrow passages test your control. It feels like guiding a metal sphere through an unpredictable, obstacle filled history lesson where every shot counts.
