I am curious about what happened with the game and why no flyers were ever printed compared to other Allied Leisure games. I hope Keith can ask former Allied employee Jack Pearson about Zap.

Here is another unknown one made by A1 Amusement Products with model name "Score". I have never heard of it or company name before. And another mystery that I also wonder about is what became of Ramtek's videogame, (Volley/Volly).
A1 Amusement Products Model: SCORE

-- Classic PONG arcade game in working condition. Manufactured by "A1 Amusement Products", Model: "SCORE". I have no idea when it was made. I have owned it about 15 years. Video display is good (two colors: green and black), sound is good (two sounds: ping and pong). All four paddles work. Player 4 rheostat needs cleaning. Original doors with locks are in place. I don't have the keys but I have removed all the lock tumblers except one, so any object remotely resembling a key will open the machine. Original coin mechanism and coin box are in place. An external switch box (just under the overhanging table-top and not visible in the pictures) has a power on/off toggle switch, and a "Coin deposited" push button. Each push mimics a quarter inserted. One push for two paddles, two pushes for four paddles. Then you select if you want to play against the machine, or not, and push "Start". The "Free Game" light does work but requires a better player than me! Glass top is totally flat and waterproof, so this really is a cocktail table. Case is made of particle board with a wood-like finish, and overall, the machine is VERY heavy. --
