Close Encounters of the Third Kind is a 1978 Gottlieb game built around the Spielberg film, and this one leans into the theme. The custom sound board plays the five pipe tones and the movie background music, so the machine sounds like the film every time you play it.

The cabinet carries custom graphics that give it a look you will not find on a stock example. New Wolffpac displays make the score bright and easy to read. New side rails and new playfield glass freshen up the cabinet and the playing surface, and a new Gulf Pinball power supply board takes care of the electronics for steadier, more dependable play.
