GAME DESCRIPTION
Here's the only official licensed DONKEY KONG(TM) game for IntelliVision(TM)!
In Coleco's home version of the sensational Nintendo arcade game,
you participate in the action-packed rescue adventure of man against
ape. Donkey Kong(TM) has stolen Mario's girlfriend and taken her
to the top of a steel fortress. Mario must climb to the top of the
ramps to save her while jumping over or avoiding the barrels Donkey
Kong(TM) hurls down at him.
When you get Mario to the top, Donkey Kong(TM) takes Mario's girlfriend
still higher--to the top of the rivet structure. Mario must knock
out all the rivets to save her.
Your skill and speed determine your point total. How high can YOU
score trying to rescue Mario's girlfriend?
GETTING READY TO PLAY
Make sure the Master Component is connected to the TV and power
supply is plugged in.
TV should be on and tuned to the same channel as the Channel Select
Switch on the console.
MAKE SURE MASTER COMPONENT IS OFF BEFORE INSERTING CARTRIDGE.
Turn Off/On switch to On after cartridge is inserted.
USING YOUR CONTROLS
NOTE: For a one-player game, use the left controller. For a two-
player game, Player 1 uses the left controller; Player 2 uses the
right controller.
1. KEYPAD: Keypad Buttons are used to select a one-player or two-
player option and game difficulty. Then, use them to start playing.
2. DISC: Tilting the Disc to the left or right causes Mario to run
in that direction. Tilting it up or down while Mario is under or
over a ladder causes him to climb up or down the ladder.
3. SIDE BUTTONS: Pressing any Side Button causes mario to jump.
HERE'S HOW TO PLAY
STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: If you are playing a two-player game, players take turns.
Player 1 begins and each turn lasts untilt he player's Mario is eliminated.
STEP 1: Getting started.
Press any button on your keypad and the title screen appears. Next,
answer the questions which appear on the screen to select the type
of game you want. Press any keypad button to start the game.
STEP 2: Start at the bottom.
The first of your three Marios appears at the bottom of the ramps.
Try to move him up to the girder where his girlfriend stands.
STEP 3: Climbing the ladders of success.
To reach the ramp above or below, Mario must climb an unbroken ladder.
(Also notice that Mario can dodge barrels by climbing part of the
way up a broken ladder.)
STEP 4: Hammer away!
Learn just the right technique to jump up and grab a hammer. Mario
uses the hammer to hit barrels and fireballs for points. But watch
out! If the hammer misses a barrel or fireball and the barrel or
fireball hits Mario, Mario is eliminated. Mario can not jump or
climb ladders while swinging the hammer.
After a few moments, the hammer changes to bright green, then disappears.
STEP 5: Time is running out...
When mario removes the last rivet, Donkey Kong(TM) steals the girlfriend
away again! The game continues, and the action gets more and more
challenging.

SCORING
The starting bonus is 6000 points for the first ramp screen, and
