INSTRUCTIONS For Play :
-----------------------
Each player starts with 4 colored squares in their "Home
Base" position. Each player's turn consists of a rolling 1
die and selecting a play option.
Either a one (1) or six (6) must be rolled to take a
square from "Home Base" to 'Start' location marked by a
single square on the playing board shaded with that player's
color. To accomplish this, use the [B] play option. A
square can be taken out at any time, as long as the 'Start'
location is unoccupied by own colored square.
Players roll their die in turn, moving squares which are
on the playing board the exact number of places permitted by
the value of the die. To accomplish this, use the [M] play
option. If multiple squares of the same color are on the
playing board, use the [S] option to blink the square that
you wish to move. Keep in mind that squares are moved in a
clockwise direction.
Each time a six is rolled, this entitles the player to
an additional turn, ONLY IF they were able to use the six
just rolled.
AGGRAVATION Rules (cont.)
As play proceeds, a player may NOT JUMP OR LAND on a
square of his own color. However, when a players move lands
his square on space occupied by an OPPONENT's square, he may
AGGRAVATE by replacing that square with his own. The
AGGRAVATED player must then re-start the square from their
"Home Base" position. Squares are ALWAYS subject to
AGGRAVATION until in "Home Area". First player with all four
squares in "Home Area" is the winner.
TAKING A SHORT-CUT:
------------------
The space in the center of the playing board is a
"Short-Cut" (called Center Area in this version) and may be
used only if the player's square is still in the line of
spaces marked by their 'Start' position. Also, to use the
Center Area, a player must roll the EXACT number which would
place him in the Center Area space if they chose to use it,
otherwise they must proceed around the board. When a player
uses the Center Area, a one (1) must be rolled to EXIT and
the square is then placed on the right side of their "Home
Area". To accomplish this, use the [C] option to move the
square IN or OUT of the Center Area.
** SPECIAL FEATURES: **
-----------------------
If a mouse is to be used, moving and selecting squares
is a simple task to accomplish. To select a square that you
wish to move, place the colored plus sign [+] over the
appropriate square and click the left button. After this is
done the mouse cursor will become a solid colored square.
Then to move that square to its new board location, a player
may either place it on the correct spot and then click the
left button. Or just click the left button a second time and
the computer will automatically move it for you. NOTE: There
is one EXCEPTION to this rule. A player MUST place their
square in the Center Area spot if they wish to use the Short
Cut. If you accidentally selected the wrong square to move
just press the right button and the plus sign [+] cursor will
reappear.
