About This Machine

Cerberus, manufactured by Playmatic of Barcelona, Spain in March 1982, is a solid-state electronic (SS) pinball machine featuring four flippers, a single pop bumper, and an array of stand-up and drop targets. Although its theme is not documented, its technical layout offers a look at Playmatic's SS-era design approach.

Gameplay-wise, Cerberus includes a multiball feature, a kick-out hole, and a star rollover that add complexity to the scoring dynamics, along with a 4-bank and a 3-bank drop target. The right dual in-lane configuration offers a layout distinct from simpler single-lane designs of the period.

No specific information regarding Cerberus's art, theme, or designer has been uncovered through research. It remains an intriguing example of early-1980s Spanish solid-state pinball that continues to attract attention from collectors and enthusiasts.
