Got this board from Olly.

Board looks very clean and plays but has graphical issues

Initial visual inspection showed nothing. All voltages seemed fine too.
Next I started gently pressing down on the custom chips which made a lot of changes when I pressed on 053250

Found a bunch of pins on that were lifted.
I reflowed these and checked the rest of the chip which all seemed fine.
Next boot up test gave me a lot better results but there were jailbars down the whole screen sometimes.

Continuing pressing the custom chips I could make everything change again by pressing on custom 054157.

Found most of this row lifted

and few a few here

Reflowed those little guys and all is fixed in Xexex land.
Its a really nice game that I’ve never played before.
