The name refers to the mythical lost city of gold, with the backglass depicting a group of cowboys who've just found an (unseen) treasure trove. The game itself is deceptively simple; use the four flippers to knock down all fifteen drop targets, then hit the single lit target for a Special. However, hitting all the targets and rollovers requires skillful nudging and flipper control, and moving the lit spot and hitting it on the same ball is a challenge for most players.
