Player one's Action 2 is activated by '\' instead of the intended key '/'. This can be corrected by going first to the "Options" menu then to the two players "Controls" menu. Highlight Action 2 with the arrow keys and press return. Then press '\'. Player two's inventory key (Ctrl) does not respond. Change the inventory key to '5'. This can be done the same way but in the player 2, two players "Controls" menu. 2) Some of the keys listed in the Controls menu are not mapped properly. Changing the default keys may cause control problems. The changes mentioned in number 1 withstanding. 3) The Death option has been removed in the demonstration version. Selecting this option may impede game play. If you have any problems, you can contact Interplay customer service at 714-553-6678 during normal business hours. =============== Credits =============== [Quality Assurance] Director : Chad Allison Assistant Director : Colin Totman Lead Tester : Douglas Avery Testers : Rene Hakiki Jeremy Ray Jim Harrison Enjoy!! =============== Legal Stuff.... =============== SOFTWARE USE LIMITATIONS AND LIMITED LICENSE This special 3-level preview version of Norse By Norsewest (the "Software") is intended solely for your personal noncommercial home entertainment use.
