Concentration is based on the popular game of the same name. The object of the
game is to correctly guess the 5-digit number concealed behind the boxes. The
5-digit number is drawn in such a manner that each digit takes up all 5
vertical boxes. An example of how the numbers look will be shown at the end of
the instructions. We recommend that you familiarize yourself with them as it
will help in making your guess (they are TRICKY).

At the start of each game you are given 2500 points. You are presented with a
5x5 grid composed of 25 boxes labeled A through Y. Each box has a prize
associated with it. You chose 2 boxes, by letter, and you will be shown what
is behind each box. If they match, you do NOT lose any points and if they do
NOT match you LOSE 50 points. The boxes are then cleared and a portion of the
hidden number(s) are displayed.

You can take a guess at the hidden number, any time during the game. HOWEVER,
if you do not guess correctly, you LOSE 100 points. When you have correctly
guessed the number, you will receive the number of points remaining from the
original 2500 you received at the start of the game. The minimum number of
points you win, for a correct guess, is 100. As you can see it is to your
advantage to solve the puzzle as quickly as possible so as to retain as many
of the original points.




After pressing [ENTER] you will be shown the way the hidden numbers will be
displayed. Study them carefully as it will help in guessing the hidden 5-digit
number. As we said before the numbers are tricky <grin>... GOOD LUCK!
