''Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory'' is a [[PhysicalPinballTables pinball machine]] designed by Creator/PatLawlor and released by Creator/JerseyJackPinball in mid-2019.
Based on [[Film/WillyWonkaAndTheChocolateFactory the 1971 film of the same name]], the player is tasked with collecting a number of sweets while going through various rooms in Wonka's fantastical factory. Their progress is tied to the five children on the tour (which culminates in the potentially potent Kid Multiball). The ultimate goal is to find Golden Tickets (which are tied to the game's various other modes and can provide valuable multiballs along the way). Acquiring all five gives the player a shot at completing [[WizardMode Pure Imagination]]. Also worth noting are the various doodads within the machine: a spinning Everlasting Gobstopper (tied to the Most Secret Machine), a small Wonkavision screen on the playfield, and (in the higher-tier versions) a Wonkavator ball lock that lasts from game to game.
----
!!This game contains examples of:
* AchievementSystem: Completing certain goals (ranging from amassing enough bumper hits to the Herculean task of cashing in a full "scrumdiddlyumptious" combo) leads to the player receiving coins that are then spent in a gumball machine. One of the five Golden Tickets is tied to a random one of these achievements, too.
* AuthorAppeal: Lead programmer Joe Katz's love of ''Franchise/MortalKombat'' directly inspired the [[EasterEgg Candy Kodes]].
* ChallengeRun: Certain Candy Kodes reverse the flipper controls for the duration of the game.
* {{Combos}}: They make progress towards spelling "scrumdiddlyumptious", which adds points to an award obtained by hitting the Most Secret Machine.
* CompanyCrossReferences: The [[EasterEgg Candy Kodes]] have a few references to other Jersey Jack games:
** One of them prints a message alluding to ''Pinball/TheHobbit'':
-->"Have you ever spelled dwarf in order during Orc Attack?"
** Two others reference ''Pinball/DialedIn'': "Crazy!" (accompanied by an appropriate soundbite from that game) and "When you are Dialed In, look to the moon."
* EasterEgg: "Candy Kodes" occasionally appear after a ball drains on the Wonkavision screen. Entering a code with the flippers unlocks a screen where they can be input; the bulk of them simply display a message, but some unlock {{Challenge Run}}s.
* EdibleCollectible: Several of these, fitting the source material.
** Gumballs are tied to the game’s AchievementSystem.
** Wonka Bars are obtained through ramp shots; they add to your bonus, help qualify for Computer Awards, and determine scoring during "Wonka Bar Craze".
** The Candy Jar similarly determines the spinner's value and scoring during "The Candy Man".
* GottaCatchThemAll: The player must collect five golden tickets in order to reach the WizardMode; the conditions for doing so range from finishing various multiballs completely to fulfilling one of a set of achievements.
* InterfaceScrew: Two of the [[EasterEgg Candy Kodes]] reverse either the main flippers or the upper flippers’ controls.
* MatchSequence: An Oompa-Loompa unveils several other Oompa-Loompas contorted in the shape of the match number.
* MythologyGag: During the match sequence, an altered version of the massive contract from the original film is partially visible in the background:
--> Whereas the outcome of the score match feature [is] random and arbitrary, [no] result is implied nor pledged...
* ScoreMultiplier: There are no less than four "Super X" modes that boost playfield scoring (anywhere from doubling to ''quintupling'' it) for a period of time.
* ShoutOut:
** One of the potential achievements (tied to adding time to a mode) is "[[Series/TheTwilightZone1959 Time Enough at Last]]".
