OPTIONS
|
|||
|
|
-------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
After you enter your options, press RETURN. If you don't want to
|
|||
|
|
change an option, pressing RETURN will enter the option shown.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
MODE: ENTER P OR T (for Practice or Tournament) In the practice mode,
|
|||
|
|
you choose the pieces to play against and their positions on the
|
|||
|
|
screen. The computer will ignore the numbers after the Round and Level
|
|||
|
|
options.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
In Tournament mode, the computer chooses the pieces you play against
|
|||
|
|
and their positions.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
ROUND: ENTER 1-9
|
|||
|
|
----------------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The higher the number you enter, the greater the number of pieces on
|
|||
|
|
the board. Round one starts with four pieces. One additional piece is
|
|||
|
|
added each round. No more than 25 pieces will be placed on any one
|
|||
|
|
board, however. This option isn't valid in practice mode.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
LEVEL: ENTER 1-9
|
|||
|
|
----------------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The skill level determines the complexity of the playing pieces
|
|||
|
|
selected for play in the tournament mode. This option is not valid in
|
|||
|
|
practice mode.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
SPEED: ENTER 1-9
|
|||
|
|
-----------------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
This is the speed at which the pieces make their moves. 1 is the
|
|||
|
|
fastest and 9 is the slowest. Should a player wish to follow the moves
|
|||
|
|
in detail, a slower speed should be selected. Once a player has
|
|||
|
|
mastered the moves, a faster speed will allow victory to come
|
|||
|
|
swiftly!
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
RETRACE? ENTER Y OR N (YES OR NO)
|
|||
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Retrace refers to the ability to land on a square that has been
|
|||
|
|
occupied previo usly by one of the player's pieces. If you choose
|
|||
|
|
"No", once a player lands on a square, it can't be occupied again by
|
|||
|
|
either one of the player's or the computer's pieces. These squares
|
|||
|
|
willbe marked as you go along so you know which ones can't be landed
|
|||
|
|
on. If a computer's piece lands on one of these squares, it will make
|
|||
|
|
its move again according to its set pattern. A player loses the game
|
|||
|
|
by landing on one of these squares. In a two-player game you can use
|
|||
|
|
this option to be able to block your opponent's path to the other side
|
|||
|
|
of the board. If you choose "Yes", any of the squares may be landed
|
|||
|
|
on again by either players' or the computer's pieces.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
MOVES AHEAD: ENTER 1-4
|
|||
|
|
----------------------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
This is the number of moves you choose before you get the opportunity
|
|||
|
|
to pick another move or set of moves. During play, first your piece
|
|||
|
|
makes one move, (In two-player mode, the second player would then
|
|||
|
|
move), then the computer's pieces move and you continue to alternate
|
|||
|
|
moves. In the tournament mode, you must choose at least two moves.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
PLAYERS: ENTER 1 OR 2
|
|||
|
|
---------------------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If you choose 1, your piece just needs to avoid the computer's
|
|||
|
|
pieces. Choosing 2 means you have to avoid not only the computer's
|
|||
|
|
pieces, but an opponent's as well. In the two-player version, moves
|
|||
|
|
may not be deleted. Once entered, they stand.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
GAME ID: XXXX
|
|||
|
|
-------------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
With the //E the arrow keys also work
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
You can't move diagonally. If the player's piece comes in contact with
|
|||
|
|
any other piece, the game is over.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Once the player's piece moves, each of the other pieces on the board
|
|||
|
|
move. The direction each other piece moves depends on two factors:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. The type of piece
|
|||
|
|
2. The direction the player's piece moved
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If the computer's piece lands on another of its own pieces, it makes
|
|||
|
|
its own move again.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
WRAP AROUND
|
|||
|
|
-----------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The computer's pieces can wrap around the screen when making their
|
|||
|
|
moves. Your piece will not wrap around. If you enter a move which
|
|||
|
|
would take your piece off the edge of the screen, it will count as a
|
|||
|
|
move, but your piece will stay in the same place.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The four-digit ID code on the left represents the last game played and
|
|||
|
|
the one on the right shows the current game either pending or
|
|||
|
|
underway. You may enter 0-9 and A-F as identification codes.
|
|||
|
|
Exceptions: you can't use 0000 or have two zeros on either the left or
|
|||
|
|
the right. Tournament games can be replayed at a later date if you
|
|||
|
|
remember the Round, Level and Game ID code combination. Enter this
|
|||
|
|
information in the options.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
TO PRACTICE
|
|||
|
|
-----------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
After you have entered your options, press ESC, then choose the ID
|
|||
|
|
numbers of the pieces you want to play against. Press return after
|
|||
|
|
choosing the number. See the chart below for the ID #s of the
|
|||
|
|
pieces. Use the I,J,K,M keys to position the pieces on the board.
|
|||
|
|
Press return when each piece is in the position you want. When you
|
|||
|
|
have entered as many pieces as you want (1-25), press ESC to begin and
|
|||
|
|
choose a starting location for your piece. Enter 1-8, or "N" for New
|
|||
|
|
if you decide you want a different board setup.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
In practice mode with only one player and more than one move ahead
|
|||
|
|
chosen, the "/" key allows a move (or moves) to be erased. You can't
|
|||
|
|
erase the last move, however, since once that is entered, the pieces
|
|||
|
|
begin to move. On the Apple //E, the DELETE key also works. During
|
|||
|
|
move selection, pressing "?" allows you to review the options you
|
|||
|
|
selected. Press any key to return to the game.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
