DIRECTIONS FOR FLAPS
v1.1
Copyright 1996
Soleau Software, Inc.
OBJECTIVE
The objective of Flaps is to guide the different colored
marbles into their respective colored slots at the bottom of
the game board.
GAME PLAY
To begin a new game, click on the Play button at the bottom
left hand side of the game board. There are eight empty
slots at the bottom of the board. These slots will be
colored blue, red, yellow or green. This color must match
the marble that you guide into it.
The starting marbles will alternate from the left and right
springs located at the top of the game board. As they
roll onto the board, you can click on the silver flaps to
direct the marble into the proper slot at the bottom. If
you trap a marble between two flaps so that it cannot move
any further, then both the marble and the two flaps will be
removed from the board.
The level will be over when all the slots at the bottom of
the board have been correctly filled with the matching
colored marbles. On the first few levels, you have a total
of 25 marbles to complete each level. As the levels get
higher, you are given less marbles to complete each level.
If you guide a different colored marble into a slot that is
already filled with the correctly colored marble, then the
slot will be emptied and points will be deducted from your score.
The game will be over if you do not fill the eight slots with
the marbles allotted for each level. (see chart below)
Levels 1-4: 25 marbles
Levels 5-19: 20 marbles
Levels 20-25: 15 marbles
LEVEL COMPLETED
When you complete a level, the marbles you did not use will
give you extra bonus points. Each unused marble adds 35 points
to your score. A special 250 point bonus is given for completing
the level using only eight marbles.
The Shareware version of Flaps has seven levels of play.
The Registered version of Flaps comes with 25 levels.
