-
- OBJECTIVE
-
- The objective of Crusher Castle is to find your way out of a Haunted
- Castle made up of 25 different rooms filled with Ghosts.
-
-
- Game Play
-
- When the game begins, you will find yourself in the center of the Castle
- in room 13. There is a Room Map on the left side of the screen which
- will show you your location in the Castle at all times.
-
- Your man will appear by one of the four exits in room 13. Using your
- <Arrow Keys> you can move your man around the room.
-
-
- Objects / Objectives
-
- There are various objects you will see in each room. There are Brown
- Closets, Gold Bags, Candles, Bombs, Boxes, and of course Ghosts. These
- Ghosts will always be after you as make your escape out of the Castle.
-
-
- 10,000 Point Objective
-
- Before you can even begin in your quest to find the way out of the
- Castle, you first must acquire 10,000 points. When you begin your
- journey you have 3 Men, 5 Candles, and 4 Bombs in your inventory. Your
- inventory is shown on the left side of the screen at all times. A Room
- Map is also displayed showing your location within the Castle.
-
-
- Boxes and Bombs
-
- There are Boxes which are scattered about the room. These can be pushed
- around the room to help you avoid the Ghosts. They can also be blown up
- with a bomb which will remove them from the room. If you have bombs
- collected, you can blast a Box by pressing the <Spacebar> to activate
- the bomb. Then press the <Arrow Keys> for the direction you want the
- bomb to explode. Pressing the <Spacebar> key again or moving in another
- direction where there is no Box will de-activate the Bomb and it will
- not be used up.
-
-
- Gold / Candles / Closets / Ghosts
-
- In most of the rooms you will see Bags of Gold, Candles, Closets and
- those nasty Ghosts. Points are awarded for capturing these items.
- Crushing Ghosts (trapping them) is done by pushing the Boxes so that the
- Ghost has nowhere to move. After he is trapped, in a few seconds he
- will vanish and a candle will appear somewhere in the room.
-
- Candles are the most important objects you will need. Without candles
- the game will be over no matter how many men you have left. Therefore
- make sure you always have enough candles. ( Hint: this is really
- important as you near your escape.) If your candles get down to 3, then
- a warning will flash. This means you had better find some more candles
- or you will fail in your quest to find your escape. Approximately every
- 24 moves by your man, a candle will be used up. Every time you change
- rooms, half a candle will be used.
-
- Closets are located in every room. Inside the closets might be Candles,
- Bombs, or other items which can help (or hurt you), but you can never
- lose a life by opening a closet.
-
- Hint: These closets are the key to finding your escape route out of the
- Castle.
-
- Ghosts
-
- There are always Ghosts which will try to catch you. The white ghosts
- are the slowest, the pink ghosts are faster, and the light green ghosts
- are the fastest. If you can trap a ghost with the boxes so that he
- cannot move, you will be awarded points and he will vanish from the
- room. As a bonus, a candle will then appear somewhere in the room. If
- you trap two ghosts together, they will not be considered trapped. They
- must be trapped separately.
-
-
- An Extra man is given to you for every 10,000 points. Your first
- objective when beginning the game is to reach this 10,000 point mark.
- After that, you will be given clues to the later stages of the game.
- You will come into contact with things like Magic Cats, Old Maps, Keys,
- Secret Passageways.... Each will give you extra points once found.
-
-
- END OF GAME
-
- If you run out of Candles or lose all your Men, then the game will be
- over. The game checks to see whether your score is in the Top Ten High
- Scores. If it qualifies, then you will be asked to enter your initials
- onto the scoreboard.
