Description:
Solitary Croquet for Windows 3.0 allows one to play croquet with one ball
and a mallet and nine arches. The arches are numbered one thru nine. The
object of the game is to hit the ball with the mallet by selecting the
distance and direction the the ball will take to go tru an arch. The ball
must go tru the arches in sequential order (1 to 9). However, at least 20
shots (maybe more) are allowed to hit the ball thru the nine arches.
hitting the ball thru an arch depends on the selected disance; the shorter
the distance the greater the chance of the ball qoing thru the arch.
Instructions:

down and the cursor touches or comes close to the top of the
