A Fun Game to Crack
We had a Safecracker come through the shop recently. If you have the chance to play this game, take it! Until then, live vicariously:

Bally came out with this game in 1996, and produced around 1,150 units. (IPDB)

Safecracker was slow to catch on at first, with its timed game, shortened playfield, and backbox play, but is generally well-regarded now.

Here you can see the gameboard, with the vault in the center. The player tries to get to the middle before the guards, dogs, and other obstacles catch up. Then a magic coin is awarded through a slot in the center. (You can see the coins in the top pic.)
