Is EJ a multiball heavy game like GF and GNR? For instance, are you guaranteed at least 1 or 2 multiballs every game pretty much no matter how crappy your play is?

Quoted from iceman44:

Jaws is as “multi ball heavy” as GF, which is about right.
EJ looks to be similar.
Both are fantastic games.
Price sucks? I think that applies to BOTH Stern and JJP.
What you get in JJP games are a few levels above Stern. The toppers alone on GF and EJ are amazing and included.
I’ll say that Jaws is Stern’s best looking game in a long time, maybe ever.

I haven’t played EJ yet. I have played about 20 games on Jaws and I definitely did not achieve multiball more than just a few times. I’m wondering if EJ is another one like GNR and GF where it seems like there is a multiball every time you play a game. For me that gets old quick. That’s what made me sell GNR. It was a fun game for a while but each game was exactly the same except for the song that was playing.

I’m hoping an EJ pops up on location near me so I can try it. Or maybe I’ll take a road trip to the distributor. I don’t like to judge a game until I play it.

Quoted from RebelGuitars:

Absolutely not. You should be able to start Croc MB easily, but you still have to light your locks and lock the ball. Rocketman MB is more challenging to start and the Signature Stages require hitting all the shots spelling out ELTON JOHN, then locking three balls in the piano. Your skill shot awards can help, but you know what you're trying for. There's no "what just happened/why'd I'd get MB".

This is all great to hear! I like the old fashioned light locks and then lock ball format to get into multiball.
