HOW TO INSTALL

IMPORTANT NOTE: This program requires the file VBRUN300.DLL. If you do not already have this file in your Windows\System directory, you will have to acquire it in order to run this program. It is available for downloading from most online services. This program will not work with VBRUN100.DLL or VBRUN200.DLL.

Use any pkunzip 2.04g compatible unzipper to unzip wayrev20.zip to any directory. In file manager, double click on setup.exe (NOT wr2setup.exe) to  install. Follow any prompts and Wayne's Revenge Solitaire V2.0  will be installed in the directory of your choice (existing or new) and an icon will be installed in the program manager group of your choice (existing or new). Any files included in wayrev20.zip that are no longer needed after the installation is finished will be deleted automatically (except for wayrev20.zip).

NOTE: It is usually a good idea to save the original compressed file just in case you ever need it again.

 WHICH CONTROLS DO WHAT ?

->To move cards, just use the regular drag and drop method.

->To place a card automatically (if it is playable there) on an upper pile, just double click on the card that you wish to place.

->To deal the next card from the reserve pile to the discard pile, just click on the reserve pile.

->To replace the reserve pile cards with the discard pile cards, (after the reserve pile has been depleted), just click on the green circle. If you see a red X instead, then you are done.

->                                      The buttons across the top of the screen are:

 DEAL-------->This one starts a new game. (If you decide not to play and re-deal without making a valid  move, then the deal does NOT count as a game for statistical purposes).

 EXIT--------->We all know what this one does.

 ABOUT---->Just in case you wanted to know.

 HELP------->This reveals the help file.

 UNDO------>This will undo your last move only. (If you move a card but do not drop it on a valid location, then you can still undo the move before that). Registered version only!

 OPTIONS->This will reveal the options. Registered version only!


WHAT OPTIONS ARE AVAILABLE ?

->Toggle Sound On And Off ------------------ Yes, it does

->Use Multiple Passes Through Deck --- This allows you to keep rotating through the deck until you win or start a new game. Not much fun this way is it?

->Select Deck -------------------------------------- Selects the cardback design. Note: the new deck will not appear until the next deal.

NOTE: The undo function and the options function are only available in the registered version!


HOW TO PLAY

104 cards are used in Wayne's Revenge Solitaire. 35 cards are dealt onto the lower portion of the table and the rest are placed in the reserve pile on the lower left side of the table. The first reserve pile card is then placed face up on the discard pile for you. The object of the game is to end up with all of the cards on the upper piles. To do this, you may build the lower piles in descending order (from king to deuce) in matching suits and/or the upper piles in ascending order (from ace to king) in matching suits by using the top card from the discard pile or the top card from any lower or upper pile. You may place ANY card on an empty lower pile space. You may NOT place any card on the discard pile. Moving more than one card at a time is not allowed. The reserve pile can only be gone through twice so use caution at every move.

For each (ace through 10) card placed on an upper pile you will score one(1) point and for each (jack through king) card placed on an upper pile you will score five(5) points for a maximum score of 200 points.

GOOD LUCK !
