Star God
About This Machine
Star God, manufactured by Zaccaria of Bologna, Italy, in May 1980, is a solid-state electronic pinball machine built on Zaccaria's first-generation MPU platform. With art by Lorenzo Rimondini, Star God reflects the early solid-state era of this Italian manufacturer, which operated from 1974 to 1987.
The gameplay features on Star God are quintessential to the SS era, with a focus on electronic wizardry. The machine boasts two flippers, one pop bumper, an eight-bank memory drop target bank, a four-bank drop target bank, and two roll-under spinners. This configuration allows for fast-paced action and strategic depth, making it an engaging challenge for players.
The fantasy theme, while not uncommon in pinball, adds a touch of mysticism to the game's design, brought to life through Rimondini's artwork. No designer credit is documented for this title. Despite its relative obscurity, Star God stands as an interesting piece in the Zaccaria catalog from the company's early years producing solid-state machines.
