    Complete all the Wizard goals for Taxi. I've ordered them by difficulty below. Please note that you must complete all Basic goals first, and if you do any of the following before actually unlocking the Wizard goals, your progress does not carry over.


    **Earn a Special**

    This is most likely the last goal you will unlock on this table, as it is very time-consuming and takes a lot of random chances from the Joyride. To get one shot at the Special, pass the ball from the left flipper through the right return lane to light the Joyride, and then try to hit Santa's hole from the right flipper.

    The timeout is too short to get more than one or perhaps two chances. If you hit the left return ramp instead, you can take another shot from the left flipper by aiming just to the left of the right return ramp. This should send the ball up and around over top of the rollovers and into the Joyride from above.

    I got it around my 50th Joyride, and this seems to be par for the course. So keep playing, and good luck!


    **Earn the Million point shot**

    You get this by hitting the left and right return lanes several times, then landing the tricky shot at Santa's hole described above for the Special. However, this one doesn't time out, or at least I've never seen it time out.

    If you get Multiball while trying for the Special using the Joyride method, you'll often score the Million shot instead, because the return lanes will be hit enough times to light the Million by the time you get a chance to line up a decent shot at the Joyride.


    **Earn 500,000 points on the skill shot**

    Advance the multiplier on the rollovers to 5x by earning Extra Ball twice This can be lit by the rollovers or awarded by Joyride. Then on the fifth ball, land on the 100,000 on the skill shot. Not easy, but if you can get a feel for the timing on the skill shot, you should have plenty of chances at this goal.


    **Score at least 4,500,000 points**

    Again, you should get this on the way to the other goals. Multiple jackpots and the million shot are the key. If you're having trouble hitting the 100,000 skill shot, ease up a little and go for the safer 75k, which can contribute more than 1/3 of the needed score if you hit it consistently while scoring Multiball locks and extra ball.


    **During Multi-ball, relock both balls in the Express Lanes**

    Land a ball in each Express Lane during Multiball. Once you hit the first, there is a timeout counter, but it is fairly generous., The shot is not overly difficult to make once you get the first lock. If you're unsure of your aim, try capturing the second ball and lining up your shot carefully.

    sonnyforpleI got the special probably after 100+ joyrides. I tried to get it legit way of picking up and dropping off all the passengers but wound up getting it this way first.
