PINBALL FOULS is a term used to describe an infraction in the game of pinball. A tilt is the most common type of foul, which occurs when the player shakes or nudges the machine too hard, causing the ball to move off its intended course. Other types of fouls include draining the ball too quickly, hitting the flippers too hard, and using foreign objects to manipulate the game. All of these fouls can result in the player losing their turn or even the entire game.
