Game Plan was a pinball manufacturer that produced pinball tables from 1978 to 1985. Game Plan was a subsidiary of AES Technology Systems and was located in Elk Grove Village, Illinois. Game Plan's president was former Chicago Coin table designer Wendell McAdams.

The company initially produced cocktail-style pinball tables and produced five different models in their first year of existence. The company began producing full-size tables with 1979's Sharpshooter, a "Wild West" themed table. Sharpshooter, incidentally, was Game Plan's best-selling table, having produced 4,200 units in all.

Game Plan table designer John Trudeau, went on to design The Machine: Bride of Pin*Bot (1991) and The Flintstones (1994) at Williams. Ed Cebula later worked as a table designer and mechanical engineer at Data East Pinball.

Game Plan is a Singaporean Chinese drama which debuted on 9 October 2012. This series was the second production by Wawa Pictures to be broadcast on MediaCorp Channel 8, the last series being " The Oath". It will also be the third Wawa production featuring Christopher Lee and Jesseca Liu, and the seventh pair-up for both of them.

The original title was "Tricked" , but was changed later on. The Chinese title is an idiom which is literally translated as "thousand ways, hundred plans", and means to use every method available in order to achieve one's goal, which loosely implies " by hook or by crook".
