**************************************
NOTE: You must have a joystick plugged
into Port 2 to play this game.
**************************************
Tally-ho! This arcader puts you on
horseback for a challenging steeple
chase. But "National Velvet" it
ain't-- you won't be jumping wooden
gates and stone walls or splashing
through puddles. Instead, you must
negotiate treacherous mushroom
obstacles while fending off killer bee
attacks with your trusty bow and
arrow.
You try to jump your horse over as
many mushrooms as you can by pressing
your fire button when you want the
horse to leap. If you misjudge the
leap and your mount collides with the
mushroom, you lose that horse. (You
get five horses.) After you jump over
15 mushrooms, you reach another, more
difficult, level.
At the higher levels, you must
contend with the killer bees. To
shoot an arrow, push "up" on the
joystick.
You receive points for each
mushroom you jump as well as for each
bee that you kill. The amount of
points that you receive is dependent
the level that you are on.
One more thing....you can change
the speed of the game by pressing
keys 1 through 9 during the
introduction music; the lower the
number, the faster the game. The
normal, or "default" speed is 5.
