Free Play and Per-Game High Scores
Free Play allows Chiller and the other supported Exidy 440 titles to start without inserting coins while retaining traditional Coin-Up operation as an available gameplay style.
Each included game has its own supported high score table. High score saving can be configured using Save All, Top 3, First Score Only, or disabled modes, depending on how the cabinet owner wants the kit configured.
Supported score data is saved through EEPROM-based storage instead of batteries or NVRAM. Backup and restore options are also available for supported score tables.
Game Menus, Attract Sounds, and Operator Settings
The Exidy 440 kit includes flexible menu options for choosing Chiller or another supported title. Operators can choose between text list menus or marquee-style image menus depending on the preferred cabinet presentation.
Supported attract sounds can be adjusted at 25%, 50%, or 100% rotation intervals. Attract mode rotation helps reduce idle screen burn while giving the cabinet a more active presentation.
