- 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.
