- In this game demonstration your mission is to destroy as many rats as
- possible. To do this you must move around the street, and point your
- gun so as a rat is within your sights, then fire the gun and destroy
- the rat. You must destroy the rats as quickly as you can. When there are no
- rats left the game is complete. The rats enter the game at a fixed speed,
- so speed is of the essence.
-
- The rat at the top left of the screen indicates how many rats are alive, the
- more worried the rat looks, the better you are doing. The display on the top
- right of the screen shows how many rats you have killed. A rat in the x5
- column means you have killed 5 rats, two rats in the x25 column and one in the
- x1 column means you've killed 51 rats.
-
