Chiller

The game's four basic screens are a vice/guillotine room (or torture chamber), rack room (with a river of blood), haunted house hallway, and graveyard. Between each level there is a slot-machine bonus screen, where one tries to match up 3 identical characters by shooting the fast-moving scrollers. If all of the levels are completed successfully, a target-practice bonus round ensues, wherein one tries to shoot various objects (decapitated heads, etc) that move at increasingly faster rates.

Inaccurate shooting is punished by a faster rate of time decay. The game is generally considered quite gory, perhaps not by Mortal Kombat standards, but certainly for its time. The player is supposed to shoot apart people's body parts (exposing bones and blood, and resulting in realistic-sounding shrieks of horror). Various special situations are created as well. For example, shooting the edge of torture racks, to pull human targets apart into two pieces, or shooting the handle of a guillotine in order to drop the blade across someone's neck.

This game is housed within a large black cabinet approx. 77 inches tall at the highest point that is shaped somewhat like a coffin. Exidy is written on the sides in white letters. The control panel is a mix of green, purple and blue that depicts a graveyard scene with decapitated heads and the like.

Supposedly, converting this boardset to other Exidy shooting series games such as ICrossbowI and ICheyenneI can be done by swapping ROMs and exchanging the 74LS368 at position A1 on the audio board with a 74LS367.

The Exidy shooters generally used large number of EPROMs in order to create the smoothflowing graphics and moving characters.
