20-SQUARES
20-Squares v1.0s (20SQR.EXE) is a Windows shareware version of the ancient
Egyptian game of 20-Squares -- A game of the Pharaohs. Requires VBRUN300.DLL
to play. A popular game of ancient Egypt, played by millions
from 3000 BC to 400 AD, is still fun and enjoyable today.
Historically accurate, full of stunning graphics, brimming with
Egyptian lore and history, lots of great game sounds, an original MIDI score;
all this combined in an easy to learn and play format. It's fun,
it's educational, it's exciting -- the only remaining question:
Will you win the sacred scroll of Thoth, or die buried alive in the sands
of Neferkaptah's tomb?
20SQR.ZIP should yield the following program files when un-zipped:
20SQR.EXE -- The 20-Squares executable
20SQR.HLP -- The 20-Squares Help File
README.TXT -- This 'read-me' file
MUMFACT2 .TXT -- The file with all the MummyFacts
20SQR.MID -- The Midi background music
BOURN1.WAV -- Game Sounds
BUMP5.WAV "
POWER3.WAV "
ROLLSTKS.WAV "
STICKS1.WAV "
WIN.WAV "
MAGIC.WAV "
20-Squares is written in Visual Basic 3.0. As such it
requires that VBRUN300.DLL exists in your Windows System directory.

I have a 'slick' install program that takes care of everything having
to do with installation, but for file exchanges across BBSs
it takes up too much room -- adding almost 300K to the files.
So . . . to install 20-Squares, please do the following:
1. Check that VBRUN300.DLL is in your Windows System directory. If not,
please download a copy (there should be a copy on the BBS from which
you downloaded SENET.ZIP).
2. Create a directory 20SQR.
3. Copy all the files 'unzipped' from 20SQR.ZIP
to this new 20-SQUARES directory.
4. Create a program manager icon for 20SQR.EXE by adding it as a file
in your GAMES program manager group.
That's it.
Thanks for using 20-Squares. I hope it's challenging, fun, and
educational at the same time!
