Viper

A full-length electro-mechanical playfield photographed in a wood-grain cabinet with chrome legs. The lower two-thirds is dominated by a large gold/yellow triangular field printed with black jackpot-multiplier text and two round blue-and-white JUMPER bumper caps reading 3 JACKPOT and 1 JACKPOT, ringed by oval inserts marked 1X, 20X, 30X, 40X, 25X, 50X and 70X. Two black rubber flippers with red-and-white striped aprons sit at the base, flanked by yellow-bordered slingshots. The upper third is a dense maze of red plastic posts, chrome wireform ramps and ball guides on a cream, mint-green and orange geometric background, with two tall domed blue pop-bumper caps left of centre and a raised circular spinner platform with red insert lettering in the middle. A dark-clad male figure with outstretched arms is painted just above the gold triangle. Along the bottom apron, blue arrows label FLIPPER, RED BUTTON VIPER REVERNS and RED BUTTON VIPER STRIKE, with two cream instruction cards, a FOR AMUSEMENT ONLY panel and a STERN ELECTRONICS, INC. lightning-bolt logo. Red SHOOT AGAIN text and an amber round lamp sit between the flippers.

A rectangular painted backglass framed in beige-gold trim, dominated by a colossal rearing cobra whose hooded head and open, fanged mouth thrust up into the top centre of the glass. The snake's body is scaly, banded in teal, grey-green and pale cream, and coils in three or four huge loops across the lower half of the art, its tail curling up the left edge. A bare-breasted woman with long dark hair is draped over the snake's midsection, sitting astride a coil; her skin is pale peach with heavy airbrushed shading, and she wears a dark green-black body suit of straps and ribbed armour over one shoulder and thigh, with black lace-up boots. Behind them is a grey-brown masonry wall of large cracked stone blocks lit by cold blue-white strip lights along the top edge; a bare bulb glows behind the snake's head. Four rectangular score windows with red-orange seven-segment digits sit symmetrically left and right (two up, two down), each flanked by an outlined numeral 1, 2, 3 or 4. Small parchment-style instruction plaques read HIGH SCORE at upper left and GAME OVER at upper right. Lower right has MATCH / BALL IN PLAY above two small displays showing 98 and 10. The title VIPER appears at left in gold-green gradient block capitals, its V drawn as a snake head, with a yellow dot-matrix subtitle below.
