LAKEWOOD, NJ -- New from Jersey Jack Pinball is Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean, a versatile flipper game incorporating scenes and themes from all five films in the popular Disney saga. Jersey Jack's latest movie-themed game made its debut at the 2017 Pinball Expo, held at the Westin Chicago North Shore hotel in Wheeling, IL, from Oct. 11 through 17.
Players can choose to play as one of 22 movie characters, fire their pinball-loaded cannon from the rocking Black Pearl on the upper playfield and enjoy such features as an interactive concentric map with 216 usable combinations. The game also employs Jersey Jack's proprietary audio system with five channels for enhanced stereo surround sound, doing full justice to the soundtrack which features custom voice narration by actor Kevin McNally, celebrated for his portrayal of the ship's first mate, Joshamee Gibbs.
