- Introduction:
- ─────────────
- Watzi for Windows is based on the popular game Yahtzee.
- From one to four players take turns rolling the dice
- each trying to obtain the highest score. The score for
- each round of play is based on the combination of dice
- that have been rolled and the checkbox that the player
- marks. For complete rules about scoring, please press
- the 'Help' button during play of the game.
-

- Setup:
- ──────
- To setup Watzi, create a directory on your hard-drive,
- and copy the files listed above to it. Then launch
- Windows, open the group where you want the Watzi icon
- to be placed, and select 'File' and 'New...' from Program
- Manager's main menu. Choose 'Program Item', and then
- type the name 'Watzi' and the complete path of WATZI.EXE
- on the appropriate lines of the next dialog box. Click
- on 'OK'. You should now have the Watzi icon in your
- program group.
-
- To play Watzi, double-click the Watzi icon, and after the
- game card is in view, press the 'New Game' button and enter
- a name (or names) for the game. For help at any time
- while Watzi is running, press the 'Help' button.
-
- To view the rules for Watzi, select player names for a new
- game, press 'Ok' in the New Game dialog box, and when you
- are back at the main game card dialog, press 'Help'.
-
-
- Notes:
- ────────
- Watzi creates an .ini file (WATZI.INI) in your WINDOWS
- directory. This file contains the names and scores of
- the players who have had high scores. This is a text
- file and can be edited by any text editor. If it is
- deleted, the high scores record is cleared.
-
- Several beta testers indicated a desire to have sounds
- play when the dice are rolled. To accommodate this,
- the game has been programmed to play the file ROLLDICE.WAV
- any time the dice are rolled. If a file by this name exists
- in the Watzi directory, then it will be played. Otherwise,
- the request will be ignored. Included in the WATZI10.ZIP
- file is a file called ROLLDICE.WA_ that just needs to be
- renamed to ROLLDICE.WAV in order to have the sound of dice
- being rolled. You may rename this file, or any other .WAV
- file, if you want these sound effects. (I personally find
- it pretty annoying, but use your best judgment.)
