- Flipcommons AI Descriptions (GameplayFeature)Electromagnets mounted beneath the playfield surface that can grab, slow, deflect, or redirect the ball during play. Unlike [[gameplay-feature:magna-save]], which is player-activated, playfield magnets are typically software-controlled — the game decides when to energize them, creating unpredictable ball movement that no amount of player skill can fully anticipate. [[manufacturer:williams]]' *[[title:twilight-zone]]* (1993) used magnets to spectacular effect, and the mechanism has since become a standard tool in the designer's kit for creating moments of surprise, challenge, and controlled chaos.
