Calling for help! This page, while not being a stub, still needs some attention, specifically in the History section, also an appearance section would be optional section(s). |
Tumbleweed Terror is a western themed pinball machine that Soos, Dipper, and Mabel become trapped in, in Soos's story in "Bottomless Pit!"[1] It was made by Ballway Games in Redmond, Washington.
History
Tumbleweed Terror has been in the basement of the Mystery Shack for a long time, and has been played by "SAL," "GAFF," and "POO," who had all gotten the highest scores. In an attempt to beat these three, Soos spent four years playing the game.
After losing a life, Soos beats the high score by cheating with Dipper and Mabel, by tilting the machine, but the skull in the game realizes it and sucks them into the machine. Disgusted by their dishonesty, the skull attempts to punish them by using features of the game, for example, the "multi-ball" setting where a series of pin-balls are spewed from the skull's mouth.The trio plans to escape by pressing the off button, but Soos states that if it is turned off, all data will be removed, including his high score. After thinking, Soos decides to press it off and they return to normal.
Sometime after this, the game is moved into the attic of the Mystery Shack and is seen in the background in "Sock Opera."
Personality
The skull head on the top part of the middle of the machine wears a cowboy hat and talks with a western accent. It can't see everything that goes on in the machine, such as when Soos, Mabel and Dipper hide inside the cardboard tavern. However, it does control everything that happens inside the machine on the actual board, such as when it launched a "multi-ball" attack. It can be deceived and flustered fairly easily but it will not hesitate to punish anyone who doesn't play by the rules.
