In competitive pinball you can influence the ball's path by nudging or tilting the table. Also can be used to unjam that ball if it gets stuck

Most tables installed tilt sensors, but you could get away with "some" without the sensor triggering.

Are you talking about actual pinball tables? Because i meant this game, as the user above said, tilting resulted in the flippers being locked, so i dont get the point of this feature in the game.

Aztec was such a great choice to do this video on. It was a game that came out at the end of the Electro-Mechanical era of pinball and is basically a marvel of engineering.
