-
- SELECTING THE MENU OPTION "INSTRUCTIONS" WILL BE HELPFUL IN LEARNING THE
- GAME.
-
- Object of the game is to move around the screen completing three sides of a
- box and not being hit by the meanies.
-
- Cover over 50% of the screen and move to the next level.
-
- If you complete a border the box will fill and you are ready to start again.
- The cursor keys, keypad, or mouse control direction. Using the keypad has an
- advantage since you can stop yourself by pressing the five key. Be careful
- because stopping yourself on the red can cost you a life if you are hit while
- sitting there. You now may use a mouse if you like. Just move the mouse in
- the direction you wish to travel and you will move. Press the left mouse
- button to stop your motion. It takes a little time to get used to it.
-
- Reversing direction while on the red playing field zapps you.
- Safe area is anywhere except for the red area.
- Hitting a mine takes a life.
