|
||
This game from Parker Brothers is silmilar to Aztec but infinitely
|
||
better. The graphics are great the the game has no apparent flaws
|
||
except for the boot which goes through 4 bad sectors. Anyway, your
|
||
Panama Joe has to find jewels in a crypt. The last part of the crypt
|
||
is full of jewes for the taking until you can't stop falling. You then
|
||
begin the next level. Press return at the all-text title page, you
|
||
get a menu:
|
||

|
||
|
||
Its set at Joystick, level 1. If you want to change something, press
|
||
the number to change. After you're done, press Return and start
|
||
playing. The pre-set keys for keyboard are:
|
||
|
||
Left J
|
||
Jump K
|
||
Up I
|
||
Right L
|
||
Down M
|
||
|
||
In the game, there's the game screen and two boxes at the upper right
|
||
and left corners. The upper right one displays your score. The upper
|
||
left one dispays how many guys you have left(hats), what tools you
|
||
found and your level.
|
||
|
||
In each room, there might be any of the following:
|
||
|
||
LASER GATES:
|
||
If Joe gets caught when one is there, he' dead. They turn on and off
|
||
very so often.
|
||
|
||
CONVAYOR BELTS:
|
||
These never stop or change direction. They either make Joe slow down
|
||
or speed up depending on which way he's going.
|
||
|
||
DISAPPEARING FLOORS:
|
||
Certain sections that look differet from the rest and blink on and
|
||
off. Joe can walk on one if its there or else he falls. When Joe
|
||
falls, he might die, and this is not the only case of him fallin.
|
||
|
||
DOORS:
|
||
There are 3 color doors: red, blue and grey. Joe must find the right
|
||
key to open one. If he opens a door, its 300 points.
|
||
|
||
FIRE PITS:
|
||
If Joe falls in one, he's dead.
|
||
|
||
LADDER:
|
||
Joe can go up or down them, but can't jump off or onto one.
|
||
|
||
POLES:
|
||
If Joe jumps on to one, he slides down, if he misses, he dies.
|
||
|
||
CHAINS:
|
||
Just like LADDERS except he can jump off or onto one.
|
||
|
||
The tools/objects:
|
||
|
||
AMULETS:
|
||
They look like hammers and when taken, turns killer creatures grey and
|
||
allows him to pass by harmlessly. After a few seconds it disappears
|
||
and so does the grey color. Taking one is worth 100 points.
|
||
|
||
KEYS:
|
||
Three different colors to open doors. The one used disappears after
|
||
opening a door.
|
||
|
||
SWORDS:
|
||
If Joe runs into some creatures with a sword, he kills the creature
|
||
and loses the sword.
|
||
|
||
JEWELS:
|
||
What your trying to find for a big 1000 points cache. One catch, if
|
||
Joe has more than 5 swords/amulets/keys, he can't take any. He may get
|
||
as much as he can get his hands on. Doesn't count as a tool.
|
||
|
||
TORCHES:
|
||
Help light dark rooms. Otherwise, you only see creatures and fire pits
|
||
there. Counts as a object. Worth 3000 points if you get one.
|
||
|
||
Note: You must jump to grab an object. Maximum of 5 tools you can have
|
||
at one time. You can have an unlimited amount of jewels.
|
||
|
||
Killer Creatures:
|
||
|
||
SKULLS:
|
||
These guys are either rolling or bouncing. Jump over rolling ones or
|
||
walk under bouncing ones or die.(I never tried jumpinga bouncing
|
||
skull, etc) You might get hit by a bouncing one from below so watch
|
||
out. Killing a skull with a sword is worth 2000 points.
|
||
|
||
SNAKES:
|
||
They don't move, run into one and die. You can' kill them.
|
||
|
||
SPIDERS:
|
||
These critters crawl all over the place, even up and down ladders. Get
|
||
hit by one and die. Kill one and get 3000 points.
|
||
|
||
TREASURE ROOM:
|
||
When Joe jumps into darkness to find chains and jewels. Don't jump
|
||
onto a pole or else go to next difficulty level. Grab as many jewels
|
||
as quick as possible. Don't miss any chains or else you grab a pole
|
||
and slid down to next level.
|
||
|
||
|
||
With joystick, make sure you move the joystick up, down, left and
|
||
right before you start to calibrate it.
|
||
|
||
If you lose all your Panama Joes, press the Jump button to restart
|
||
"once" where you left off, reseting the score to 0.
