Also included are several sample-sized game files which show the range of entertainment and educational possibilities for the game. REQUIREMENTS ------------ To run Click-It you need a 286 (or better) system using MS-DOS version 3.0 or higher. You must have a VGA monitor and a mouse. A hard disk with at least 1 MB available is recommended. Newer systems obviously give better performance. INSTALLATION ------------ This procedure is only used when installing from floppy to hard drive. If Click-It has been downloaded directly to your hard drive or has been manually installed, ignore this section... The installation procedure for Click-It is fairly simple. An INSTALL file is provided which automates the process for most users. To use this file... 1. Insert the Click-It diskette into a diskette drive and enter the drive letter (normally "A:"). 2. Enter a command similar to... INSTALL A: C: CLICKIT where... ===================== "A:" is the diskette drive FROM which you will install Click-It. This can be changed if your diskette drive letter is different. "C:" is the hard drive TO which Click-It is to be installed. This can be changed if your hard disk drive letter is different. "CLICKIT" is the directory name in which Click-It will be installed. This can be changed to a name of your choice if desired. The most common situation is a system where the diskette drive is A:, the hard disk is C: and it is OK to create a directory named CLICKIT to install this package. In this case, all you need to do is enter exactly as shown above. Contact us as shown below if your situation is different and you need help.

Box 127 Fredonia, PA 16124-0127 (412) 475-3988 ======================================================================== GAME OVERVIEW ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Each game will have one or more play screens. The screens have either one or four levels, depending on the game being played. Each level contains a clue list describing items found in that screen's picture. Five clues will be selected at random from the clue list for each level. The object of the game is to respond quickly to selected clues by moving the mouse cursor to an appropriate section of the picture and clicking. A correct response is given when the object diretly under the cross hairs of the magnifying glass shaped cursor match the given clue and the left mouse button is clicked. Colored blocks drop down the right side of the screen to show the time available for each clue. As the game progresses, less time is available. While quicker correct responses are rewarded with higher scores, bad clicks cut scoring opportunities by a third. Three bad clicks and a scoring opportunity is missed. A game starts with three misses allowed. Misses allowed are represented by pins in the lower right corner of the play screen. A new pin is rewarded after each screen past the third one is completed. The game is declared over if all of the pins are lost. An automatic speed control slows the game down when scoring opportunites are missed or when the colored timing block is allowed to drop too far. The speed control will shift back up when it senses it is ok to do so. A handy feature for beginners is the Computer Aided Movement. When selected, the CAM will direct the cursor toward the nearest spot it senses as good. The CAM may be turned on or off during the game. A penalty is enforced on clues that come up when the CAM is on. This penalty and the fact that the player must wait for the CAM to move keeps scores low when the it is used. CAM is best left off unless needed. It can be seen that scoring is based on speed and skill. Guages on the play screen show how well a player is doing in these areas. Keep in mind that two players may have the same speed and skill and yet end up with different scores! Each scoring opportunity counts - it may be the last clue on the last screen that puts a player on the high scores board. The score of any completed game having had less than the full length of ten screens or having just one level of clues per screen will be adjusted to allow score comparisons with other games. ======================================================================== HOW TO PLAY ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To play Click-It, log into the drive and directory where the game is installed, then enter CLICKIT. The program will quickly scan the directory for game files and then show the game descriptions on a scrollable list. Clicking on the scroll bar or arrows changes the selected game. Clicking on a game description will select that game. Sound and CAM option buttons are available both on the main screen as well as during game play... 'Sound' turns the sound effects Off/On. 'CAM' turns the Computer Aided Movement Off/On. The CAM is described in 'Game Overview'. Other buttons available on the main screen are; 'Play' starts game play using the currently selected game file. 'Scores' accesses three high score boards... Top ten scores achieved in that game session. Top ten scores for the currently selected game. Top ten all time scores - all games. Boards may be individually reset using the 'Clear' button. 'Info...' will bring up information on the currently selected game file. 'Exit' will close the game. Use the [Esc] key at any point in Click-It if you want to quickly end a game or exit the program. ======================================================================== REGISTRATION ------------------------------------------------------------------------ If you find Click-It to be entertaining or educational you may wish to purchase full-length games from our extended list of titles.
