See the idea in action
Activate the flipper when the ball reaches its active surface. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Choose a deliberate next step.
Keep this in mind
A drained ball cannot be rescued. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
