Selling my Wizard of Wor. It's a fun game, it's just not my game. It was fun to get fixed up though, it came to me "not working, not sure why".
  • Replaced 12v fuse (had super high impedance)
  • Recapped power board, caps were completely shot
  • Replaced C1 on audio board, shorted to ground
  • Replaced flyback and F901 fuse on chassis, monitor working again. Looks to have been recapped in the past.
  • Fixed coin door lights (someone had unplugged it, probably troubleshooting the 12v issue), replaced bulbs
  • 16v return on audio board had a broken pin. New pin installed
  • Replaced all three speakers with new from ArcadeShop
  • Refinished speaker grills, they were more rusty that I would have liked
The audio pots are still a bit scratchy when adjusted, but they do work. I was unable to find suitable replacements I felt would definitely work, so I left them. A previous owner has spray painted a small part of the back of the front glass to fill in some missing paint on the glass. It's not really noticeable while playing, but worth pointing out.

I didn't do any restoration work to the cabinet itself other than the speaker grills, so it does have some age on it. And the back door is, well... not original. But the game plays perfectly. It also comes with a spare board set that is not working. I have suspicions it's the German version of the game, but I'm not terribly familiar with the card rack system so I didn't do much here other than try to Deoxit and re-seat the boards. It still did not come up.

I'd like to get $800 but I'm open to reasonable offers. Not looking to trade for anything at this time. Also happy to take more pictures if there's anything you want to see up close.

Video of the game playing here: https://youtube.com/shorts/sLrz1xNJNQk (couldn't compress it down to get it under the 6MB limit)

[edit] Forgot to include a pic of the back door. Added.
