Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory
Jersey Jack · 2019 · at 2 UK venues.
Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory turns Roald Dahl’s strange and colourful factory into a pinball adventure. Jersey Jack’s design takes the various rooms, characters and inventions from the story and transforms them into a series of objectives.
The game is structured around exploring the factory and progressing through its different areas, with the major characters and attractions providing distinct challenges.
The factory is deliberately full of distractions, which is part of the fun. Don’t just chase the brightest toy. Work out which part of the factory you’re trying to complete.
