fortified with spinach, Popeye must persue Brutus through many
hazardous locations, battling with numerous foes and dangers. On
his way people will meet several of his friends who will help him
or hinder him.
WIMPY.....Will stop Popeye. He has lost his hamburgers, Can Popeye
help him collect them all?.
SWEE'PEA..Is crawling dangerously close to the edge of girders,
platforms etc, unaware of the drop below. Popeye must stop
him quickly.(eeek that was close)
EUGENE....Will help popeye with extra points when popeye passes him.
BOMBS.....Popeye must defuse these nasties, otherwise there will be an
almighty explosion!
GOONS.....Watch out! They are spoiling for a fight, dont let them
knock out Popeyes lights. Help Popeye catch the cans of
spinach in order to get past.
BRUTUS....When Popeye catches Olive Oyl he will have to fight Brutus
He will need all the spinach he can get. Be warned, Brutus
is a tough cookie and does not fight fair, he also carries
a dirty great big club!
Scoring and Lives etc
Points are scored for defusing bombs,collecting hamburgers,collecting
Spinach and rescueing Olive.
On the score panel at the bottom of the screen, the lives are displayed
as three hearts. The beating heart will gradually decrease in size until
it disappears, indicating the loss of one life. Also shown on the
score panel is a box containing an arm. This will increase in size to
a real `He-Man' muscular arm when Popeye is full of strength, and
gradually shrink down to weedy proportions.
Hints & Tips
------------
When Popeye is knocked down, he will become invicible for a few
seconds after he has recovered. This is shown by popeye flickering.
