Standard vs. Wi-Fi Kit

Standard Kit

Stores supported high scores and settings locally and provides normal multigame operation, Free Play, game selection, menu settings, Backup and Restore, Reset, Self-Test, God Mode, Stealth Mode, and local high score saving without requiring an internet connection.

Wi-Fi Enabled Kit

Includes the same local functionality and adds qualifying online leaderboard score submission through the HighScoreSaves platform.

Wi-Fi can be disabled without affecting local score saving or normal gameplay. Wi-Fi-enabled kits use compatible 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi networks.

Scramble / Super Cobra Multigame FAQ

Does this kit work with bootleg Scramble PCBs?

Yes. The kit supports documented compatible original and bootleg Scramble PCBs. Because board layouts and socketing vary, inspect the required CPU, sound, graphics, and PROM locations before ordering.

Which games are included?

Scramble, Super Cobra, Anteater, Frogger, Amidar, Armored Car, Turtles, and The End.

How many high scores are saved?

The kit saves the Top 10 supported scores with player initials for each supported game.

Are scores lost when the cabinet is turned off?

No. Supported scores and settings are stored in serial EEPROM and remain saved without cabinet power.

Can I use Free Play and still accept coins?

Yes. Free Play is available for coin-free operation while traditional coin operation remains supported when preferred.

Do I need to purchase a Z80?

No. A compatible existing Z80 may be reused. A compatible replacement Z80 can be selected separately if needed.

Does installation require soldering?

Not when every required location is already properly socketed. If the main CPU, sound CPU, graphics ROMs, or PROM are soldered directly to your PCB, the required sockets must be installed before the daughter boards can be fitted.

How do I open the settings menu?

With cabinet power off, hold Player 1 Start while turning the cabinet on, then release Player 1 Start when prompted on screen.

What does the Wi-Fi version add?

Both versions save supported scores locally. The Wi-Fi Enabled version also adds qualifying online score submission to the HighScoreSaves leaderboard.

Brought new life to my Scramble cabinet

I was originally looking for a way to keep my Scramble machine interesting without losing the original hardware, and this multigame kit was exactly what I wanted. The extra games give everyone something different to play, and changing between them is quick and simple.
Installation went smoothly, the instructions were well written, and the kit worked perfectly from the first boot. Everything fits cleanly with no permanent changes to the PCB, which was important to me as a collector. The quality of the kit is excellent, shipping was fast, and it was packaged with care.
It's rare to find an upgrade that adds so much value while still respecting the originality of the cabinet. If you're on the fence about the Scramble Multigame Kit, I'd buy it again without hesitation.
