Escape

Escape, built by Jac van Ham of Tilburg, Holland in October 1987, is a solid-state, four-player pinball machine from a small, independent Dutch manufacturer -- a rarity in an industry long dominated by large American companies like Williams, Bally, and Gottlieb by the late 1980s.

Little detailed information survives about Escape's specific gameplay features, rules, or artwork, as is common for machines from small regional or independent manufacturers whose records were not well preserved.

Escape's rarity and Dutch origin make it an intriguing find for collectors interested in pinball history beyond the major American manufacturers. Its production by an independent European builder, rather than any technological novelty, is what sets it apart today.
