- Description: "Order Out Of Chaos" shows the player a picture which has
- been broken up into 48 tiles and then mixed up. With the
- picture in this chaotic state, two random tiles switch
- places every half second. The player tries to restore the
- picture to an orderly state by clicking on a tile whenever
- it appears at or near the spot where it belongs.
- A game consists of ten such puzzles. The first time a game
- is tried, the player will take about 10 minutes to solve
- each puzzle, for a total of two hours of play. In subsequent
- attempts, the player will improve his or her time and make
- fewer errors, resulting in a higher score.
- OOOC is a pleasant way to spend a few minutes or a few
- hours. A "Save Game" feature enables players to complete the
- game at their leisure. A sound card (such as SoundBlaster
- or AdLib) is recommended but not required. Runs in either
- 16-color or 256-color mode.
