A chilling development! Mr. Freeze, whose favorite hobby is icing his floes, er, foes, has a scheme to make Gotham City a cooler place...30 below cool! He's building a massive ice cannon, and he's not about to let anything go wrong...like having Batman and Robin meddle where they're not wanted. So he's "arranged" the escape of three of Gotham City's evilest felons from Arkhum Asylum. Once on the loose, their diabolical duty is to keep Batman and Robin occupied...while the Impresario of Ice completes the global glaciation!

The Addams Family Flying Edge To return to Now Playing, reset your adapter. GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES The Addams Family Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text Great Scott, man! The fiendish Abigail Craven has brainwashed Uncle Fester and imprisoned Pugsly, Wednesday and Granny somewhere in the Addams Family Mansion! The house is a maze of scary rooms with bizarre ghouls around every blood-curdling bend--ah, home sweet home! It's up to the sword fighting, golf ball-hurling, Fezi-copter flying Gomez to rescue his family...or they'll face a fate worse than life! So, get ready for the kookiest, ookiest, creepiest fun ever! The Addams Family Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text Start Button: * Pauses the game. * Confirms password or start game. D-Pad: Up: Makes Gomez enter a door/opening. Makes Gomez climb up a rope/vine. Also jab upwards with sword (with Button C). Down: Makes Gomez duck. Makes Gomez climb down a rope/vine. Also enables Gomez to access an entry below him. Left: Moves Gomez to the left. Right: Moves Gomez to the right. Buttons B & C: B: Makes Gomez jump, swim, or fly. C: Makes Gomez jab his sword, or throw a golfball. The Addams Family Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Gomez must fully explore the Addams Mansion and rescue Pugsley, Wednesday, Granny, Uncle Fester, and finally, Morticia. The Mansion is enormous, and his journey will take him inside, outside, above and below. Walking, flying and swimming, Gomez must keep his wits about him at all times, as danger lurks within every scenario. If anything, the Mansion is even weirder than the Family, and nothing is quite as it seems, but careful exploration of walls and other features may prove very rewarding. The only information Gomez has is a cryptic note handed to him by Thing. The Big Bird, The Sinister Centipedes and The Shape-shifting Snowman are Guardians of the Heart. The wacky Scientist baby-sits Pugsley, while the Grinning Goblin nurses Wednesday. Granny cooks for the Funky Fire-Dragon and Uncle Fester walks hypnotized by the Wicked Witch. Liberate them all to give Lurch the tune that opens the way to the Ultimate treasure. More information will be given by Thing along the way, as he is your only ally. You begin at the front door to the Addams Mansion. At this point you can explore around outside, or enter the front door by pushing the D-Pad Up. This action is used each time you wish to enter a doorway or opening. Within each area are a number of strange creatures who will do their utmost to hinder Gomez. The only way to eliminate these guys is to jump onto them-but watch out; if any of them has a pointed or spiked head, you must avoid hitting them! Each door from the Hall of Stairs will lead, ultimately, to one of the Big Bad Guys, and therefore a major reward-either a captured member of the Addams Family or an extra Heart. Also, there are items scattered around the mansion that can assist Gomez in his task. Many of these are in plain view along the way, but nothing is as straightforward as it seems! The Addams Family, and everything associated with them is WEIRD...especially their home! Secret doors exist everywhere; of course, these doorways are usually invisible to the human eye, so exploration of walls and floors is highly recommended. Look out especially for inconsistencies in appearance. It is all very deceptive, but highly rewarding if discovered! Each time you rescue a member of your family, they will make their way immediately to the Music Room. Here Lurch sits at this organ and plays a tune. Each member of the family gives Lurch a portion of music to play. This tune will build up gradually, as Pugsley, Granny, Wednesday and Uncle Fester has been rescued. Once they are ALL congregated in the Music Room, Lurch will have the entire tune to play which will open up the secret passage leading to the underground chambers, and eventually...Morticia! Switches At strategic places within the Mansion are Switch-Blocks, sometimes marked ON or OFF, and sometimes just shown as a patterned block. Jump UP to hit and switch these blocks. The result can be discovered further down your path (or maybe back the way you came!). These usually make platforms appear or provide access to otherwise inaccessible places. YOU must figure out whether they should be switched on or off. Experiment! Thing By some of the doors, you will see a box labeled A. These are Thing's boxes, and if you jump under them, Thing will spring out and reveal a clue for the section you are playing. These can be really useful! Pickups There are many items scattered throughout the Mansion (and beyond) which will aid Gomez in his quest. Small Hearts: Replenish one of your Heart energy-units. These will NOT add to your overall Heart Quota. Dollars: For every 25 of these you collect, you will have a heart replenished (if necessary). On collecting $100, you will get a 1-UP. The $ collected are displayed on the bottom left of the screen. Shield: Makes Gomez indestructible for a limited time. The shield effect is portrayed as a star trail. A noise will sound just before your shield expires. Sword: Allows Gomez to eliminate any enemies by jabbing at them, both from the side and below. You retain this weapon until you are hit by a creature (you will not lose energy, just your weapon). Golfball: Allows Gomez to throw golf balls at his enemies to destroy them. This works in the same way as the SWORD, except he cannot throw them upwards. Running-Shoes: Makes Gomez move faster and jump farther. You can lose these the same way as the SWORD. Fez: If Gomez jumps into this floating hat, it becomes a Fezi-copter and allows him to fly about for a limited time by repeated pressing of the JUMP button. The Fezi-copter will be operative until you enter through a door. At that time, it will flash to signify the remaining few seconds it is operative. The Addams Family Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Trees are a good place to begin, then find somewhere cold. The Big Bad Guys at the end of these sections may be dangerous, but they are not heartless. * Going back through the same door does not always lead you back to the same place. Jumping and jabbing upwards with your sword may enable you to pick up an item that is usually out of reach. * There is always a safe spot when confronted by a Bad Guy. Find this and you should defeat him easily. * Use the creatures as springboards to jump on in order to reach an otherwise inaccessible spot. * Map your progress-remember, the Mansion is HUGE and you don't want to forget where you're going (or have been!). * Platforms may materialize in mid-air as you walk across-be brave!

ADDAMSFV.O

Addams Family Values Ocean To return to Now Playing, reset your adapter. CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME COLLECTIBLES HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Addams Family Values Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text Your Quest The Addams family's latest addition, Baby Pubert, has been abducted by his old nanny Debbie Jellinsky. She has left a ransom note, stating that if they ever want to see Pubert again, Gomez will have to sign over his half of the Addams family's estate to her. At the end of the notes she states that she will get in touch with Gomez in a few days to sort out the signing over of the deeds. Gomez and Fester, after a bit of detective work, discover where she is hiding with Pubert, tracking her down to an old mansion located just a few miles out of town. The whole family sets off in search of Pubert. When they arrive at the gates to the grounds of her mansion, they decide to split up and go off in search of Pubert. Miles and miles of gardens, swamps, mountains, rivers, deserts and caverns surround the mansion. Debbie has hidden herself away somewhere inside the mansion, inviting a few of her friends (fiends) to join her. Fester will have to use his skill to avoid the traps, solve the puzzles and destroy the enemies. Along the way, the other family members, who themselves have ventured into the grounds to rescue the baby, will help Fester. They will appear at different points in the game and offer advice or items, depending upon what Fester has done so far. Fester will also find that not all of Debbie's fiends are loyal to her. Some may be willing to help Fester on his quest, but usually only for a price. Addams Family Values Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text D-Pad: * Controls player movement. Moves Fester around the Game Screen. Start: * Brings up the Inventory Screen. Switches from Game Screen to Inventory Screen. The Inventory Screen displays the items Fester is carrying and shows which items are currently in use.

When item is selected, it will appear in the Equipment Box. B Button: * Performs the action of an item in the Equipment Box. C Button: * Allows Fester to read signs, push buttons, pull switches, examine objects and talk to people. Addams Family Values Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Inventory Screen The Inventory Screen displays the items you are carrying and the items in use. Press Start to call up the screen when you want to change an item or check your status. Use the D-Pad to move the hand around the screen and press the A Button to select an item. When you use the Inventory Screen, you will temporarily pause the action on the Game Screen. Press Start to return to the game. Once back in the game, the item selected will appear in the Equipment Box. Press the B Button to use it. Keys: Displays any keys Fester collects. Weapons: Displays any weapons Fester collects. Cookies: Stores any cookies Granny gives Fester. Miscellaneous: Displays any items that don't fall into the other categories. Potions: Displays any potions Fester collects. Meeting and Talking to Characters: To aid Fester in his quest, you will need to have him talk, gather information, collect items, etc. from various characters within the adventure. To talk to somebody or something, get close to the character or item and press the C Button. During a conversation, if there is more text than can fit on one screen, you will see a More or Next message. Press the C Button to continue. If, during a chat with a character, Fester is given a YES or NO option, press the D-Pad Left/Right to select either YES or NO. Press the C Button to select the choice. Fester's Special Abilities: Fester and electricity go together hand-in-hand. Within this game he uses his special ability to Zzap any attacking nasties. Fester's Zzap has different levels of power. When Fester is on full current Ill Health (no red skulls or dots showing), his Zzap will be on full power. When Fester is on half current Ill Health, his Zzap will be on middle power. When he is on less than half current Ill Health, his Zzap will be on low power. As well as his Zzap Attack, Fester will find other items to use as a weapon to fend off the onslaught of nasties. Magical Seeds: Throw to the ground to attack the nearest nasties. Small Rocks: Use to throw at nasties. Stone Marbles: Causes temporary paralysis to some nasties. Green Slime: Although this icky concoction affects only a few of the nasties that inhabit the game, it certainly does the job. Bowling Ball: Quite an effective weapon against enemies. Fester's Ill Health: When you start the game, Fester has three skulls of Ill Health. When Fester is hurt, his Ill Health goes down. When his Ill Health is depleted, the Game Over screen is displayed. Some enemies when killed will turn into small skulls. When collected, these will increase Fester's Ill Health up to his current maximum. As Fester progresses through the game, he will be find ways to increase his maximum and thus allow Fester to take more damage. The Journal: When Fester acquires the journal, he may use it to aid him in mapping the grounds. But Fester should be aware that some of the map locations are not documented within the journal. NOTE: Certain areas of the game are represented by the same square in the Journal. This is particularly true for areas such as the forest and swamps. Addams Family Values Collectibles Use Up/Down to scroll text Collectibles: During the course of the adventure, Fester should be on the lookout for special Addams Family pickups. These are round blue balls, with a single letter A inside them. These pickups can do a variety of things... 1. Raise Fester's Ill-Health by one. 2. Replenish all of Fester's energy. 3. Give Fester temporary invincibility against attack. 4. Reload all of Fester's current weapons. 5. MEGAHEALTH! Many of the items below are very important to your success in finding Baby Pubert. Collect them from helpful people or find them throughout the mansion and surrounding areas. Firefly: When used will light up any darkened sections of the dungeons that Fester happens to be exploring. Shockwave: This item can only be used when Fester's health is at maximum. When used it does tremendous damage to all enemies on screen-but at a cost! Magnet: Can be used to retrieve an item that appears to be beyond Fester's reach. Black Cube: This strange object is rumored to have magical abilities, allowing the user to dispel any magical fields that may be holding any one or anything captive. Ill-Health Segments: Pick up a small skull to restore a section of your Ill-Health. Journal: The handbook will help you find your way around the grounds. Recipe Books: There are three of these hidden throughout the game. They enable Granny to create three different types of cookies to help you in your quest. Bone Spoon: Allows Granny to create Crusty Cookies. Addams Family Values Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Locate Cousin IT as soon as you can, because he will give Fester a Password to allow him to continue his game. * There is a teleportal system located somewhere in the swamps. Using it will enable Fester to get around the grounds quickly. * Before venturing into a dungeon, always stock up on cookies from Granny-you'll need them! * If you are having trouble finding Granny, try searching around one of the following places: the swamps (east of the gardens), outside the greenhouse or near the entrance to the Stone Gardens. * Try to collect Lurch's bowling ball as soon as you can, since this is an extremely valuable weapon, especially if Fester's Zzap Attack is at its lowest setting. * If Fester comes across an Addams Family Member in a new location for the first time, he should always talk to them since they may have valuable information. * The underworld beneath the grounds contains many hidden surprises, so explore as much as you can. * Although not the friendliest of creatures, Vultures make the northern part of the Rockies their home. Fester should be on the lookout for one particular nest, positioned high up and surrounded by skulls and bones. A mailbox positioned next to it contains valuable information. Keep on the lookout for mailboxes with important information. Rumors: The following are the current rumors that are circulating the gardens and swamps. Believe them or not, the choice is yours. * Rumor has it that a strange glowing object has been sighted flying over the Rockies at night. A U.F.O. perhaps? * Watch out for Grindle the Thief. He seeks rocks which he turns into Gems & Diamonds. Anything he offers for your rocks will most likely be useless. * An eccentric aviator, Magnifigo has recently crashed his strange flying machine while traveling North over the Rockies. He will be buried shortly along with his most treasured maps and journals. * A large stone tree known as Romit resides in the Stone Gardens. Keep well away as he is no pushover! * The Stone Gargoyles in the Gardens are not statues, they are merely asleep. One must find the key to wake them, or should that be wake them to find the key? Who knows? * Strobia, once mighty guardian of the graveyard now lies dormant. Surely, she will bless those who reactivate her? * Despite rumors to the contrary, Ivel is defeatable! Tune yourself to his attack and you will defeat him. Perhaps. * A Giant Spider called Morobe roams the Morgue. She is friendly and will offer aid against Debbie. * The Mansion is said to contain vast libraries of knowledge. It would be wise to search through all the books for a clue.

You're the pilot of an F-14XX fighter--the baddest bird ever to darken the skies! Your mission is to destroy two enemy microwave stations. Whether or not you reach them in one piece, though, is entirely up to you! Afterburner II Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text D-Button: * Press up or down to choose an option from one of the selection screens. * Press left or right to view the sub-options in the Options menu. * Press to move your F-14XX Skycat in 8 different directions. Start Button: * Press to bring up the Options screen. * Press to start the game. Button A: * Speed up your fighter. Button B: * Fire missile. Button C: * Slow down your fighter. NOTE: Buttons A, B and C can be customized in the Options screen. Afterburner II Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Your fighter is equipped with a Vulcan 20 mm cannon. Normally, it fires automatically. If you wish to control its operation, select "TRIGGER TYPE 4" in the Control Select screen. Your supply of Vulcan rounds is unlimited. You also have air-to-air guided missiles that rarely miss. Your battle computer is capable of auto-targeting--use your Vulcan gunsight to get a fix on enemy craft, and the missile sights will appear. Several enemy planes can be targeted at once. Try not to fire if you don't have a lock on any aircraft. Also, be sure to fire before they get too close to you. Remember, you have a limited supply of ammunition! You'll start out with 50 missiles. This supply will be replenished at various points in your journey, and you may stockpile 100 missiles at one time. If at reloading time you have fewer than 50 missiles, you will receive 50 more. If you have more than 50, you'll receive enough extra to equal 100. Use them wisely! Move your fighter laterally, using the D-Button to avoid hostile fire. A maneuver that will get you out of many tight spots is the Roll. To execute this maneuver, press the D-Button all the way either to the left or right, and then press it in the opposite direction. The F-14XX will automatically turn 360 degrees. Afterburner II Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Try to shoot the enemy craft before they fire. They will sometimes shoot at you just as they appear in the distance, and you may not be able to maneuver safely out of the line of fire! * Glance regularly at your Missile Supply Indicator. If you should happen to run out of missiles, you'll have to fight without them until the next reloading stage! * If you see a guided missile come from behind you and start to close in on you, slow your plane down. The missile should fly right by you! * Master the "Roll" technique. A moving, swerving, active target is much more difficult to hit! LEVEL SELECT: When the game says "Start/options", hold down all three buttons and press the Start button. You will see "select stage!". Then, select your stage (up to 20), by pressing left or right. EXTRA MISSILES: Use the following procedures during the rounds to get your missile count up to 100 automatically: * Stages 3 and 13: hold LEFT and press Button B. * Stages 5,11,16 and 21: hold RIGHT and press Button B. * Stages 9 and 19: press Button B.

He's got to fight through Agrabah, escape the Sultan's dungeon, survive the fiery Cave of Wonders, snatch the Genie's lamp and battle Jafar in his own secret sanctum. Aladdin's got a few streetwise tricks of his own, plus a shining scimitar to make sure he trades slash for slash. And maybe...just maybe...he'll get a wish or two. But even for the world's smartest street rat, there's danger ahead! Aladdin Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text Start Button: * Game Start and Pause.

Aladdin Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Screen Indicators Health: The smoke in the lamp at the top left of the screen is your health. Don't let it fade away! Some of the smoke vanishes each time you get hurt. The lamp will flash when you get down to your last few hit points. You can restore the smoke with Genie Hearts. Score: Watch your points add up! Tries: You start with a different number of Tries, depending on your Difficulty level. You lose a Try when you run out of health. Abu and the Genie are in your corner to help you revive, as long as you have Tries left. You can get extra Tries by collecting Aladdin power-ups hidden throughout the game. Gems: Pick up big gleaming jewels to increase your Gem count. Use Gems to buy extra Tries and Wishes (Continues) from the Peddler. Apples: You start with a different number of bright red apples, depending on your Difficulty level. Use them to pelt your opponents, from Palace Guards to attacking snakes. That'll get rid of them quick, before they get close. You can pick up more apples almost everywhere. Try not to run out. P.S.: Look out for the Basket Thief-his hobby is swiping apples. Special Items & Power-Ups You gain something good every time you run across the following items: Apples: Try to keep your Apple count high so you'll always have long-range ammunition. Snake Charmer's Flute: Catch a flute to get a magic rope that will help you escape to a higher spot. Look for musical notes that lead you to the flutes. Genie Heart: This restores some of your health. Aladdin: This golden charm gives you an extra Try. Gem: When these add up, you can buy extra Tries and Wishes (Continues) from the Peddler. Abu Token: One of these is good for a trip to Abu's Bonus Round when you clear the level. Genie Token: One of these will take you to the Genie's Bonus Machine after you clear the level. Pick up as many as you can, so you'll have extra tokens to play the machine. Black Lamp Smart Bomb: When Jafar's brass booby-trap explodes, it knocks out all near-by enemies. Blue Vase: This is a milestone marker. When you lose a Try and revive, you'll restart the level at the last Blue Vase you passed. Apple Slices: You'll run into these on your high-speed Rug Ride through the Cave of Wonders. Four apple slices add up to one extra apple. Scarab Halves: Find two of these to gain entrance to the Cave of Wonders. Genie's Lamp: Search for this in the Cave of Wonders. Its magical powers will help you rescue Princess Jasmine-if Jafar doesn't get it first! The Peddler's Stall Surprise and adventure follow Aladdin wherever he travels. For instance, the mysterious Peddler is always close by. When Aladdin finds the Peddler, he will open up his stall for business. To make your purchase, stand in front of the stall, on either the left or right, and press the D-Pad up. Just be sure you've collected enough Gems ahead of time. Wishes If Aladdin could wish for anything, it would probably be to defeat Jafar, save Jasmine and live happily ever after. But he wouldn't want to give up all the fun he's having as a street rat. When Aladdin buys a Wish from the Peddler, he gets everything he's wishing for-sort of! A Wish gives Aladdin one Continue. That means when he loses his last Try, he can continue the game from the level he's at, instead of having to start over. Every time you continue a game, you get the same number of lives as when you first started the game. A Wish could be worth up to six extra Tries! Genie's Bonus Machine There's more to the Genie than just his "pretty face." The Genie runs a Bonus Machine. You can play his game of luck every time you clear a level and have collected one or more Genie Tokens. The Genie Tokens you collect add up to the number of times you can play. * Press Button A, B, or C to select a random prize. * When you run out of Tokens, the bonus round will end. Abu's Bonus Rounds Life just wouldn't be the same without Abu! He's more curious than a cat, more stubborn than a mule, and sillier than a monkey. (Wait a minute, he is a monkey!) He's so smart, that he has his own bonus rounds where he can collect Gems, apples, and extra Tries. Pick up an Abu Token in three of Aladdin's levels. Then, after you play the Genie's Bonus Machine, you'll go on to Abu's Bonus Round. Make Abu run back and forth to pick up the special items that drop all around him. It's too bad that pots or rocks are also hailing down. Along with sword-slinging guards and other perils, they make things difficult for the little guy. One hit, and the round ends. Watch out, Abu! Aladdin Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * To get an extra 1-Up in the second level (the desert), watch for a pair of Mickey Mouse ears on the clothesline and position Aladdin so it looks as though he is wearing the ears. * If you're having trouble trying to find the exit in the desert level, you must find the two golden scarabs. One will be hidden in a cavern and the other will be at the very end of the level. * Once you're inside Jafar's palace, look carefully for the fire on the ground throughout the level. If you run into it, a lot of damage is done, so watch out! LEVEL WALK THROUGH Agrabah Market: Start out by going right past the bed of hot coals. Continue right and up the steps.

READ AT YOUR OWN RISK! Round 1: Rookie Town Be sure to get at least one Cape, two bracelets and Wizard Canes. You will need these and they will help you later. If you want to make the game easier, equip with the Bracelet. HIDDEN AREA: You will find the hidden area next to the Palm Tree, just past the third chest, by jumping up and down to break through the blocks. There are two exits from the hidden area, and you will find them by jumping, and breaking the blocks with your head. Round 2: The Prairie Be sure to pick up two Pedicopters at the end of this level. You will need to practice using these later in the game. HIDDEN AREA: You will find the hidden area after you pass the caged Hawk. Jump into the Balloon Pyramid, and find the entrance. The exit from the hidden area is all the way on the top right hand side of the area. Round 3: The Splashy Sea This is a good round to practice using the Pedicopter. Fly along, shooting at the bubbles and chests, not touching anything except money, or you will lose your Pedicopter. You can get more Wizards Canes in this area. THERE IS NO HIDDEN AREA. Round 4: Scorpion Desert This is also a good round to practice using the Pedicopter(there is a lot of hidden money above you). THERE ARE NO SHOPS, OR HIDDEN AREAS HERE. Round 5: Pyramid You will receive Tokens from some of the treasure boxes in this area. Be sure to equip with one of them, before reaching the Princess. TO BEAT THE PRINCESS: With the Token, watch her guess. Right when the computer starts speaking, move your choice to something that will beat her. If you don't have a Necklace, continuously press down on the controller, and most of the time you will beat or tie her. She is the only one that tries to cheat you. She will tell you that she wasn't ready, and ask if you will play again. Say "NO"! Round 6: Hiho Forest This is possibly the hardest round. The best thing to do here is use your Pedicopter to go all the way across the top of the screen. If you choose to go along the bottom, punch the trees, so they kill the woodcutters. Watch the trees for those pesky Gorillas. Go all the way right, and you will reach the Bear. Be sure to equip with the Necklace, before reaching him. TO BEAT THE BEAR: Follow the same procedure for beating the Princess. Round 7: Tropics Town You can purchase more Bracelets in this area. HIDDEN AREA: The entrance to the hidden area is under the Black treasure chest. Jump up and down to enter. The exit is all the way to the right. Round 8: Rock Mountain 1 Work very quickly, always moving to the right. Try to stay in the middle of the screen. Whenever you hear the humming noise, that means that the Wizard is going to appear; if you are anywhere close to him, he will kill you. Be sure to use a Necklace before you come to the Master Wizard. TO BEAT THE WIZARD: Follow the same procedure for beating the Bear, and Princess. Round 9: Rock Mountain 2 Work your way up. At the very beginning, pause on the second small bridge on the left to let the Rolling Stone go by. When you reach the rubber blocks, use a Cane, and fly up past the Rolling Stones and to the right, where the exit is. Round 10: To The Sky Here is the round you have been practicing for, the whole game. Just stay towards the middle of the screen, avoiding the blimps and planes, moving to the right. Do not shoot at the Blimps, because if you do, they will turn into bombs, and kill you. Round 11: Sky Castle On the first screen, use your Pedicopter to fly two screens up. Along with the treasure chests, there is a secret entrance to the castle on the right. Proceed through the maze. HOW TO GET THROUGH THE CASTLE: There are levers that you will have to pull. They start or stop something from moving. To do this, stand on top of them, and punch. Screens where things drop on you, should be memorized, so you can walk in them, and know exactly where the exit or lever is. Ashra is the final boss in the game. To beat him, follow the previous instructions. Then when you beat him, put on a cape, and punch him until he dies.

If you go back to areas you've already cleared, you'll be pointed in the right direction. WARNING: THE FOLLOWING SECTION MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS TO DIFFERENT SECTIONS OF THE GAME. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK! MISSION 1: Keep fighting until you get to the door that you can go in. Do not hesitate, or the aliens will keep coming. MISSION 2: BOSS: First he will shoot two lasers from the two antenna on his head. Then one from his tail. Hit him in the face when he is shooting behind him. Next run around him and shoot him in the back. Keep repeating this pattern until he has been destroyed. He takes about 20-40 hits. After he has been destroyed you will start running. Keep shooting all the aliens. To avoid the gas clouds, jump over them. MISSION 3: Look out for the mailboxes and the trash cans. If you get surrounded use the leap attack. MISSION 4: Watch out, aliens jump out of the manhole! MISSION 5: Avoid the laser beams by leaping through them. Also beware of the scientists that change to aliens. In addition, watch out for the aliens hanging from the ceiling(they will drop on you if you don't see them). MISSION 6: Beware of the alien plants. They cannot be killed, only stunned. If you get too close to them, they will hit you! FIRST BOSS: Same as Mission 2, only this guy is faster. SECOND BOSS: Stand on either side and hit it twice. Then run all the way to the bottom of the screen, head to the opposite side and hit it twice again. Continue this procedure until it is defeated(takes 30 to 40 hits). Once the second boss character is defeated, you will start to run and be faced with another boss(a spaceship). Continuously shoot at it when it appears on the right side of the screen. As you hit the chip, pieces of it will fall off and come flying at you! The best way to avoid the spiked logs and ship parts is to jump over them, while continuously shooting. MISSION 7: Watch out, several aliens appear outside the space ship. A good method of attack is the leap attack. Try to get in the ship as quick as possible before more aliens appear(you can leave the screen before all of the aliens are dead!) MISSION 8: The Leap attack is very powerful in this level. Don't worry about taking the wrong door, the next time you come across the same room, there will be an arrow pointing to the correct path! FINAL BOSS: (SHOOTING GALLERY) The boss isn't very hard to beat, it's the other enemies on the screen that make him difficult! He just sits there(doesn't attack), but the other aliens that he sends out need to be taken out as soon as possible!

Summoned by Zeus, God of Thunder, you have been awakened from the dead to challenge the wicked Neff, God of the Underworld, for the fate of Athena. Athena is no ordinary girl. She is the daughter of Zeus and must take her rightful place among the gods if only you can free her from place of imprisonment. Although you were once a brave and awesome Roman Centurion, the rigors of this journey demand a supernatural display of strength. So you are bestowed with the powers of the Altered Beast.

In the 1930s, a period regarded by many as the Golden Age of Animation. Many studios in Hollywood were pumping out reels and reels of new cartoons. During this time, one of the more eccentric and gifted animators at Warner Bros. created the Warner brothers and the Warner sister-specifically, YAKKO, WAKKO and DOT. From the beginning, however, these three were labeled too wacky, too wild and just too zany to be let loose on an unsuspecting public. Their comical genius was too far ahead of the times. Behind top-secret closed-door meetings, the studio executives, vice presidents, managers, managing vice presidents, chief executive vice directors of managing, and some people who were really important, decided to lock them up immediately in the Warner Bros. Water Tower. They remained imprisoned in that water tower for over 60 years, when they escaped! As soon as they got out, the Warner brothers and their sister immediately began to amuse themselves by wreaking havoc upon film stages all across the studio lot. One day, they found something even more entertaining to do. They decided to collect various items used in movies from Warner Bros. Studio and open their own "hip pop culture" shop.

WARNING: THE FOLLOWING SECTION MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS TO DIFFERENT SECTIONS OF THE GAME. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK! Act Walk-Through: Act 1: Leaty's Power Act 1, Part 1: Start off by going to the upper right corner, taking out all of the enemies, and the craters(they flash when you hit them). When you see a statue on the left, talk to it, and then continue through the palace gates. Act 1, Part 2: Start off by going to the right, and following the passageway. Eventually(next to the water), you will find a soldier. Talk to the soldier, and continue through the maze. When you reach a + in the road(the road goes off in four different directions), go up, to a waterfall(You'll know you're there, because you will get a message). Then, go back down(the way you came) and take the first passageway, to a place with giant frogs. Go up the far right passageway, and behind the waterfall to find an item( doll of life), then back down and to the right. Take the passageway up, and go behind the waterfall to exit the round. Once at the exit, you will be in a square room, facing a boss. Boss: To defeat the boss, try to trap him against the walls in the middle of the room, while hitting him. If you have rebounding shots, use them to your advantage(you can trap him against the middle part easier). Act 2: A Lost Cave Start off by heading up and to the left, until you find a prison, with four prisoners. They will tell you about the Prison Key. Follow the pathway back to the beginning, then head up and to the right. Find the first chest(with the Magic Power Crystal in it), and head up from there and take the first right. Follow it to the Prison Key. Once you have the Prison Key, head back to the prison, and the first person you talk to will join you(in two player mode, two people will join;one for each player). Then, talk to the dying prisoner, and he will tell you about the Exit Key. Go back to the place where you got the Prison Key, and instead of going right, take the left just before where you turned right before. Follow the passageway to a bridge(different color from the rest of the maze), and take the first right passageway. Continue on the pathway, until you see a bridge. Walk to the bridge, and you should find the Exit Key(it's actually a little above the bridge). Once you have the exit key, head back to where you got the Prison Key, and head up from there to find the exit. Boss: Once you have reached the exit, shoot the thing that appears, and then jump on the Turtle's back. The Turtle will start moving. As it moves, an enemy(Frogman) will appear on the outer edges of the shell. Continuously hit the Frogman when he pops out of the water. General Hints: The skeletons in this round come back to life after you hit them, so hit them and move on(don't stand above them). Act 3: Bad Dream Act 3, Part 1 Start off by going left, and going up the stairs. Once at the top, go left and up another set of stairs. Once at the top of those, head right, and go up two sets of stairs(one BIG staircase), and go left, past another set of stairs, to a door. Behind the door is the Sword of Hero. Once you have the sword, head all the way back to the beginning of the round(where you went up the first set of stairs), and go right instead of left this time. Follow that around, avoiding the flying bats, and you will come across a long set of stairs. Go up the stairs, and go down to a door. Take the door, to find several treasure chests! In them are many useful things. Once you have gotten all the items you need, proceed back to the stairs, and head to the upper right corner to a door. Take the door to enter Part 2. Act 3, Part 2: You start off on the right hand side of the map, in the middle. Walk through this maze, heading to the upper right corner to find the Sword of Ambition. Take the Sword of Ambition to the upper left corner of the maze, and enter the door. This will take you to Part 3 of the maze. Act 3, Part 3: You start off this part in the lower left hand corner. Walk to the upper right corner to a door. Enter the door, and take the Sword of Darkness. Once you take the Sword, several guards will come out and capture you. They take you to a room, with a guy on a Spider's back. Boss #1: To defeat this guy, continuously hit this guy(hit the guy on the Spider's back), moving only to not let it trap you in the corner. If you have gotten your weapon powered up in the first two rounds, this guy shouldn't be a problem. Once you have defeated him, exit and you will be in Part 4. Act 3, Part 4: You start this part in the lower right corner, right above the exit! Start off by walking to the upper right corner, and getting the Sword of Fighter. Once you have the sword, walk back down to the entrance, and continue down to find a door. This door leads to a room with a triangle in the middle. Place the sword in the triangle(it will do it automatically), and exit the opened door. The open door will lead back to Part 2 again. Act 3, Part 1(again): This time, you start off in the lower left corner. Start off by heading up and left, to find a place where you will put the Sword of Darkness. Enter the room, and get the Sword of Peace. Exit, and walk back down to the exit, only instead of taking the last left, go right at the bottom instead. You will find a place to use the Sword of Peace. Enter the room, and you will be faced with the second boss. Boss #2: To defeat this boss, stand in front of it, and shoot at it. If you have a Doll of Life, or Lamp, just use them and stand in one place to defeat it. Act 4: The Wicked Flame Start off by going up the stairs, and heading back to the left to talk to the guy. Once you have talked to the guy, head all the way up, until you come across a red pool with one of those dragons coming out of it. Continue going up, and follow the passageway around. Eventually, the passageway will start going in a circle, and once at the end, you will be stopped, and hear the voice of two people talking. Continue to the right, and enter the door. Immediately, you will be surrounded by two guys. To defeat them, concentrate your fire on them one at a time. Each one should die pretty easily, if you do it this way. Once they are defeated, get the Gate Charm from the table in the middle of the room. Once you have the gate charm, you can go back through the maze, and take out all the walls in the area where you can't go(water will rush through them, if you do them in the correct order). Eventually, once you take all of the gates out(there are at least 4 of them, maybe more), a waterfall will have fallen over the entrance, which will allow you to leave(under the waterfall). Once you have left, you will be faced with the boss. Boss: To defeat this boss, concentrate on hitting it, until it shoots, then move left or right to avoid the fireballs and concentrate on hitting it again. Repeat this procedure until he is defeated. Act 5: The Arrival Start off by going up and to the left, to the prison. Talk to the guy behind the cell, and then head to the right. When you come across a mini-boss(green guy that talks to you), go right and you can find two guys sitting there. Talk to one of them, and it will join you! Go back to the left, and take out the mini-boss(if you haven't already), and head up and to the right. Continue past the first mirror, to the right. Eventually, you will come across a big opening, with a passageway to the right. Take the right passageway(not the bottom one, the second one from the bottom), and enter the door. Go in and defeat the crystal looking thing, and you will be able to break the mirrors! Go out and find the mirror you just past, then search to the right of the area where you fought the crystal thing. Take out all the mirrors, then make your way to the upper right corner, to find a set of stairs, which leads to the boss. Boss #1: To defeat this boss, stand just to the left of the head, a good distance away from it, while shooting at it. When it shoots its fireballs, you can stand in the same place(if you are standing just to the left of the head). Eventually, it will shoot out purple rays. To avoid them, simply move up or down until they have missed you. Then, continue to hit it. Once this thing is defeated, head up, and talk to the guy above you. He will eventually turn into the second boss. Boss #2: To defeat this boss, constantly move, avoiding his shots, while hitting him. He doesn't move too quickly, so you should be able to hit him a couple of times, before you have to move. Act 6: Dark Minions Room 1: Move up until one statue is showing on the screen. Shoot that statue until it has exploded, then move onto the next one. Once you have defeated all of them, exit through the door. Room 2: Don't let the Spider's web you. To avoid this, concentrate on them one at a time, while constantly moving. If you stand in one place, you will be webbed, and when you are webbed, you will lose a lot of life! These Spiders don't shoot diagonally, so use that to your advantage! Room 3: Move around, hitting the snakes, while avoiding the rings they shoot. Keep moving. Concentrate on one at a time, and you will be better off. This is probably the hardest part to this round, so practice. Room 4: Use magic, and continuously hit the creature until it is defeated. Final Boss: Talk to the guy, then head down the stairs, to the top of the second set of stairs, and shoot up at the creature. If you do it correctly, you will be able to hit it over and over, and it won't be able to hit you! Act 7: Nightmare Castle Start off by going down and to the right, and talking to the guy. Go back down, and then take the middle pathway, all the way up. Continue up, and take the first passageway leading up. Continue up and to the right(over the bridge), and take the stairs. This will lead you to a big area of land, with some chests on it. Continue all the way to the left, and enter the door to fight the first boss. Boss #1: To defeat this guy, go around the enemy that appears before you, and shoot the guy sitting on the throne at the back of the area. Exit the area, by going back to the stairs, then go back over the bridge, and head to the right and up. Behind the mist, at the top of the area to the right, you will find another door. Enter the door, to fight the second boss. Boss #2: To defeat this boss, go around the enemy that appears before you, and shoot the guy sitting on the throne in the back of the area. Once you are out, go down and all the way to the left and up. Take the stairs, and take the left passageway all the way down. At the very bottom, you will fight the third boss. Boss #3: To defeat this boss, go around the enemy that appears before you, and shoot the guy sitting on the throne in the back of the area. Once he is defeated, go back to where you went left, and go all the way to the right, and down. At the very bottom of the passageway, you will encounter the final boss(if you go here before you have defeated all of the other bosses, it will say "It feels like there is something wrong here."). Final Boss: To defeat the final boss, wait for his head to come out of the ground, and hit it. Keep moving, stopping only to shoot at his head. Act 8: The Full Moon Follow the maze around, taking out all of the monsters along the way. At the top of the maze, you will meet a guy. He will ask you two questions. To answer them correctly, answer "YES" to the first question, and "NO" to the second one. When you answer the questions correctly, you will fight the guy, and once you defeat him, you will be transferred out into space. Defeat him out in space again to see the ending!

Yet the people of planet Earth never suspected that of all the planets in the Galaxy, Earth was to be Hilagi's next target. In fact, there had already been a small assault on the laboratory of the renowned scientist Doctor Zerrek Keene who, in a state near death, sent an urgent message calling his granddaughter and only living heir, Zana Keene, to his side. "Zana Keene, listen to me," he said, "I have caused a terrible tragedy. While experimenting with Nether Space transmission I caused a huge magnetic field to be formed around our planet, and now it has attracted the attention of the barbaric Viking Terrorists." The old man fell back against the floor. Zana reached for his hand. At that moment Dr. Keene pressed a keycard into his granddaughter's palm, and with his last breath, he whispered, "Zana Keene, use this...save Earth." Zana Keene, who had trained as a test pilot at the United Government Military Academy, knew what it was her grandfather had placed in her hands. The keycard was access to the space fighter "Chameleon"; the battle weapon ERX-75, a space fighter capable of combat in Nether Space. The fighter was also capable of transforming itself into a robot; the strongest weapon ever developed by the United Earth Army--code name, Valdor. Chameleon was the only existing prototype. Its production plant has been sabotaged and destroyed. Zana Keene knew what she must do. "Use this...save Earth."

If you're designing a "video card" for a birthday or celebration, you may want to use a yellow or orange background. * Remember that all the colors in your artwork change when you change your palette.

GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Art of Fighting Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text YURI'S BEEN KIDNAPPED! South Town is, by day, a bustling metropolis where commerce thrives. The true character of the city only shows at night-gambling, robbery, extortion-all controlled by the psychopathic leader known simply as "Mr. Big." Mr. Big has recruited many of his top enforcers from the participants in the nightly street fights that take place on the outskirts of South Town. Fighters come from all over to battle for the lucrative prizes available each night. The top fighters, the two men that are considered to be virtually undefeatable, are Kyokugen karate experts Ryo Sakazaki and Robert Garcia. Neither has ever lost a match, and since they grew up together and are best friends, they refuse repeated suggestions that they face each other. One night, an unexpected visitor arrived to view the fights. Mr. Big normally sent one or two of his thugs to scout new talent, but his target was a fighter so skilled-and potentially very valuable to Mr. Big-that he made the trip himself. Ryo was approached as he celebrated yet another victory. "You are Ryo Sakazaki, the one I've heard so many things about. I could make you a very wealthy man..." "I've heard quite a bit about you as well," replied Ryo, "and I'd sooner walk over ten miles of broken glass than have anything to do with you." "You're passing up the chance of a lifetime, Sakazaki. Not to mention the fact that you've insulted me. I'll remember this..." "I'll take my chances. Now get out of here while you're still able to walk, you scumlord!" Ryo himself couldn't believe what he'd just said. Ryo and Robert headed for Ryo's home. The door was ajar, and as they entered, they noticed signs of a struggle. Robert found a note on the floor. "Have a look at this, Ryo." I warned you, did I not? You little toad-do you notice something missing? Adorable child. It would truly be a shame for anything to happen to such an innocent young girl. Remember that it didn't have to be this way. Now, are you man enough to come and get her? You know where to find me...

If a fighter's Spirit falls too far, he's unable to perform those moves, and he loses a very crucial part of his attack capability. Replenishing Spirit During a match, if you find your fighter's Spirit level is too low, press and hold Button A, B, or C and the Spirit Gauge will gradually be refilled. However, while you're refilling your Spirit supply, your fighter is vulnerable to an attack by the opponent. Sapping Your Opponent's Spirit If you catch your opponent refilling his Spirit Gauge, provoke him by pressing the appropriate button(this depends on the type of Control Pad you're using and the character you've selected) and you can actually sap Spirit from his gauge. This is also a good time for a quick attack. Of course, in the 2 Player mode, your opponent can(and probably will) do the same to you. BONUS STAGES As you continue through the game in the 1 Player mode, you have the opportunity to try the Bonus Stage. There are three games to choose from. Select one with the D-Pad, and enter your selection with Button A. Instructions on playing each game appear on screen once you've made your selection. Bottleneck You see five beer bottles set up in a line. If your fighter can break the necks of all five bottles with his hand, he receives a boost to his Spirit Gauge. The trick is that the bottles must be left standing. Knock even one over, and you're outta luck. Breaking the Ice Four thick sheets of ice are stacked in front of your fighter. Breaking all of them with one blow earns him a boost to his Life Gauge. Rapid Fire Following the instructions on screen, your fighter must perform a prescribed number of Deathblows before the timer reaches 0. Doing so earns him a substantial bonus. Art of Fighting Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Each match consists of three rounds, with the fighter winning two rounds declared the victor. * A round ends when one of the fighters' Life Gauges becomes empty and that fighter falls. The fighter left standing is the winner. * A round also ends if the prescribed time runs out before one fighter overcomes his opponent. In this case, the fighter with more Life remaining is the winner of the round. * In the event that the fighters knock each other out at the same time, the round is declared a draw. If after three rounds a winner hasn't been decided (each fighter has won one round and one round was drawn), a fourth round is held to determine the winner. * If after four rounds there is still no clear winner, the Computer makes the final decision. * Any Life or Spirit lost in a round is completely replenished for the next round. * After every individual victory, and Life remaining in your fighter's gauge is converted to points (Life Bonus). You also receive 100 points for each unit of time remaining(Time Bonus).

While conducting the mission Torpex '89, you'll become acquainted with most of the game controls and some of the strategies. In Torpex '89 you'll command the Los Angeles SSN 688 on a torpedo exercise in the Faeroe Islands. Your mission is to sink three decommissioned warships without being detected. During the mission, press the D-Pad to move the cursor to different instruments on the battle station control panels. Then initiate an order by pressing Button A. Starting Up 1. Press Start at the Title screen to go to the Mission Selection screen. 2. Press the D-Pad to move the cursor to the first selection, TORPEX '89. Point the cursor on the blue box next to 688 and press Button A. You'll go on to the Configuration Panel. 3. Move the cursor to BEGIN GAME and press Button A. This takes you to the Conn, or central control room of your submarine. Receiving Your Orders 1. From the Conn, you must go to the Radio Room to receive your orders. Move the cursor over the door on the left (or port) side. When you see the Radio Room symbol, which looks like a lightning bolt, press Button A. You'll go on to the Radio Room and begin receiving a transmission. NOTE: Press the D-Pad up or down to speed up or slow down the incoming message. To read the transmission again, point the cursor at the box next to REVIEW MISSION ORDERS and press Button A. 2. After receiving and reading your orders, move the cursor toward the upper left corner of the screen until you see the Exit symbol. Press Button A to return to the Conn. 3. From the Conn you can go to any of the sub's battle stations. Move the cursor around the Conn. The station symbols will appear as the cursor touches them. Press Button A to go to a station when it's symbol appears. Using the Periscope 1. Find the Periscope symbol (in the center of the periscope column) and press Button A to go to Periscope. Look at the map, where you should see one or more X's or other letters. These are sonar contacts that your sonar operator is picking up. At this point, your sonarman doesn't know what the contacts are, or their range, depth or speed. NOTE: The ocean is filled with sounds, which could mean anything from enemy subs to schools of fish. In combat, never take a sound for granted. Get a positive ID from sonar ASAP. 2. Sonar is not the only way to get a fix on a target. If the contact is a surface ship, you can view it on your periscope. Right now you are at periscope depth (20 ft), so you can raise the periscope. Move the cursor onto the box next to PERISCOPE and press Button A. The map will be replace by a view of the ocean's surface. 3. Rotate the periscope until you see the destroyers. Move the cursor to a box on the left or right of the number under PERISCOPE ROTATION and press Button A. 4. Move the cursor to TARGET and press Button A. Now place the cursor on the closest ship in view and press Button A. Information about that vessel should appear in the target ID box at the top of the screen. 5. Look at the top-down map again by selecting T (use the cursor and Button A) on the nine-button map control in the lower left corner. The letters (except for X) show that you have a fix on these targets. (X indicates a contact with no targeting information as yet.) 6. If you can't see the letter, the target may be outside the map area. Select O (zoom out) on the map control until you get a bigger view of the map. 7. With your periscope still up, return to the Conn by moving the cursor to the upper left corner. When the EXIT symbol appears, press Button A. Setting a Waypoint 1. While you're still getting a firm fix on your targets, go to the Navigation Board. (It's symbol looks like a sextant, and appears over the chart table in the Conn.) Here you can set auto pilot to steer your submarine toward the targets. 2. Select SET from the waypoint controls. Then move the cursor close to one of the targets on the map and press Button A. A number will appear to mark the waypoint. 3. Now that you know your general direction, return to the Periscope Station. Lower the periscope to avoid being detected by surface radar. You may lose the target information at the top of the screen. Don't worry about it. After your sonarman has listened for a few minutes, he'll get another fix on the target with his passive sonar. Setting Your Depth 1. Even with auto pilot active, you're still in control of your sub's speed and depth. From the Navigation Board, go on to the Sub Control Panel. (It's symbol looks like a tiller and appears in the Conn over the two crewmen at center left.) 2. Set the throttle on 2/3 by moving the cursor to the 2/3 mark and pressing Button A. 3. Select 150 FT auto depth. Your crew will automatically take the sub to that depth. Loading Torpedoes 1. Torpedoes are not stored armed and ready in the sub's torpedo tubes. They're too dangerous for that. To ready them, go to the Weapons Control Panel. (It's symbol looks like a torpedo and appears in the Conn over the two crewmen at center right.) 2. Torpedo tube 1 should already be selected (the box around the number is highlighted). Move the cursor to the box and press Button A to load the torpedo. 3. Move to the next tube and press Button A once to select it and again to load the torpedo. Do this to all four torpedo tubes. The weapons officer will inform you when each torpedo is armed. The torpedo icons will also turn red, indicating that they are armed. NOTE: The two auxiliary tubes hold noisemakers, which are not needed on this mission. Deploying the Towed Array 1. Go to the Sonar Room (it's symbol, headphones, appears in the Conn on the door to the right). 2. Select DEPLOY to feed out your towed array (a long cable with microphones along its length). When towed behind a sub, it improves sonar's listening capabilities, although it limits the sub's top speed. Compressing Time 1. If your sonarman doesn't have a positive ID, bearing, course, and range on the destroyers, you'll have to wait while he gathers that information. This can take a few minutes. If you're impatient, go to the Navigation Board and select TIME COMP, to the right of the waypoint controls. This speeds up the game time. When your sonarman has a fix on a target, deactivate time compression by selecting TIME COMP again. Target and Launch 1. Go to the Weapons Control Panel. If the destroyers are no longer targeted, select TARGET, move the cursor to the ship on the map you want to attack, and press Button A to acquire the target. 2. If the range is under ten nautical miles (the maximum range of a 688 attack torpedo) you can fire a torpedo. Check that the box around torpedo number 1 is highlighted. If it is not, select it at once, and then select LAUNCH. 3. It takes more than one torpedo to sink a destroyer, so wait about ten seconds and launch again. NOTE: If you're out of range (ten miles or more) you'll have to close in on targets. This may require going to the Sub Control Panel and setting your throttle to a higher speed. 4. Sonar will confirm if and when the torpedoes reach their target. If you think it's worth the risk of detection (and in the beginning stage it probably is), you can go to periscope depth and raise your periscope to confirm the hit. 5. Fire torpedoes until the ship sinks (the letter will disappear from the map). Continuing the Attack 1. Set up your attack on the next ship. If you're lucky, you're already in range to strike your next target. If you're unlucky, you'll have to set new waypoints to attack the other two ships. NOTE: You can set up to nine different waypoints. Your subs will go to each of them in numerical order. End of Mission Torpex '89 ends when you sink all three ships, or 15 minutes have elapsed. Now you'll receive either warm praise or a sound tongue-lashing from your superiors. Don't be dejected if you didn't do too well the first time. Play through the exercise again. The controls will start becoming habits and you'll begin thinking and planning ahead like an ace sub commander. NOTE: In the Torpex '89 mission you can also command a Dallas 700 and attempt to sink three of five decommissioned destroyers in a contest against the computer-controlled 688. 688 Attack Sub Captain's Controls Use Up/Down to scroll text Captain's Controls In 688 Attack Sub, most of the submarine controls are the same for the American Los Angeles and Dallas and the Soviet Alfa. Although the controls look different for American and Russian subs, and may be different locations of the screen, they do the same things. The older Soviet Alfa is missing some high-tech equipment. Notes in the text point out any exceptions in the Alfa's controls. Reading Your Displays As an attack sub, your primary role is to stalk enemy vessels. To successfully do this, you must constantly be aware of your position and course relative to those of your target(s). In a submarine, you can't actually see anything outside the sub. Instead, you must orientate yourself by reading the top-down maps and contour imaging displays. The top-down maps and contour imaging are available at all stations except the Radio Room and the Status Panel. At the Periscope Station, the map or contour imaging view becomes a surface view of the ocean when you raise the periscope. Top-Down Map The top-down map give you aerial perspectives of the area your submarine is traversing, and displays information collected by your sonar and periscope. Zoom The area you're crossing can be viewed from many ranges on the top-down map. On the 688, select I (IN) and O (OUT) from the map controls to zoom in and out. On the Alfa, select the left and right buttons under KAPTY. Selecting the zoom buttons repeatedly moves you quickly through the magnifications. Your submarine is the fixed point in the center of the screen (except at the highest zoom levels). Ocean Depths Different color shades on the map designate different depths. The darker the shade, the deeper the water. Depth can vary from 0 to greater than 2,000 feet. NOTE: Since very few submarines can dive below 2,000 feet, the exact depth of really deep ocean doesn't matter. Stay aware of the average depth of the water you're traveling through. It's possible to run aground, which is somewhat embarrassing for a submarine commander. To cross the shallowest waters (the lightest color on the map), you'll have to surface. Sonar Contacts (Letters) When you first receive a sonar contact, the sub's computer displays it as an X on the map. An X means that you only know what direction the sound is coming from. It's identity, range, speed and depth are still a mystery. An X always appears halfway between you and the edge of the map, regardless of the zoom level. When your sonar operator gets a fix on the contact, it's assigned a letter on the map. Letters mark the exact location of a target so you can keep track of it. However, the sonarman still may not know exactly what the target is. If he doesn't, "Unknown Surface Contact" or "Unknown Submerged Contact" will appear in the target ID box and the target's letter will appear dark. When the sonar operator positively ID's the target, the letter will turn a lighter shade. If a contact is lost and regained, it may be assigned a new letter. Waypoints (Numbers) Waypoints (automatic destinations) that you've set are displayed on the map as numbers. Contour Imaging The Los Angeles, the Dallas, and the Alfa are equipped with side-scanning sonar, a device that produces a contour image of the ocean floor. A sophisticated, high-frequency sonar beam scans the ocean terrain around the bow, port and starboard of the sub. The onboard computer uses the sonar information to generate an image of the ocean terrain around the sub. To turn on contour imaging in the 688 or 700, select C from the map controls. In the Alfa, select the KOHTYP switch. You can safely use contour imaging at any time, since the sonar beam's high frequency and short range make it virtually undetectable by other ships' arrays. HUD (Heads-Up Displays) The HUD (Heads-Up Display) is an overlay on the map that shows your sub's course and depth. On the 688 and 700, select H on the map controls to toggle the HUD on and off. On the Alfa, select the NH3 switch. Compass With the HUD active, you'll see a compass along the top of your map. The white triangle in the middle of the compass is your sub's current course. Depth Gauge The vertical gauge along the right of the map shows your depth relative to the ocean floor. The top marker is your sub's current depth. The bottom marker is the depth of the ocean directly below you. Always be aware of how close you are to the ocean floor. Keep a safe distance between you and the bottom marker or you may end up with a ruptured hull. Target Information Select TARGET and then move the cursor to a contact on the map. In the target ID box at the top of the screen, you'll see what sonar has determined (if anything) about that target. Target: The target's ID. If the target is still unidentified, "Unknown Contact." "Unknown Surface Contact" or "Unknown Submerged Contact" will appear. Bearing: Where the target is in relation to your submarine. Your bow (the front of the sub) is 000 degrees, and the location of all contacts is reckoned relative to this point. Moving clockwise, 90 degrees to your right (starboard), 180 degrees is behind you (astern), and 270 degrees is to your left (port). A contact directly astern is bearing 180 degrees. Range: The target's distance from your sub, measured in nautical miles (nm). A nautical mile is 1.15 standard miles (6.076.12 feet or 1,852 meters). Speed: How fast the target is going, measured in knots (kt). A knot is a unit of speed of one nautical mile (1.15 standard miles) per hour. Course: Where the target is headed on the compass. In reckoning course, north is 000 degrees, south is 180 degrees, and so on. A target's course is different from it's bearing. For example, a target directly astern may be heading northeast. In that case it's bearing is 180 degrees, while it's course is 45 degrees. Depth: How deep the target is, measured in feet (ft) in the 688 and 700, and measured in meters (m) in the Alfa. Crew Messages, Location and Time Two bars at the bottom of the screen give you important information. The upper bar shows you messages from your crew. The lower bar shows your sub's current position as map coordinates. To the right of these is the number of minutes that have elapsed during your current mission. When time compression is active, mission time runs approximately twice as fast as real time. 688 Attack Sub Battle Stations Use Up/Down to scroll text Battle Stations Radio Room All missions begin and end in the Radio Room, where you receive your CINC's instructions, warm praise, or cold shoulder. NOTE: You can't use any controls in the Radio Room during an incoming transmission. Reviewing Mission Orders: Select the box next to this order to review the last transmission you received. NOTE: Press the D-Pad up or down to speed up or slow down an incoming transmission. Press Button C to stop it. Reviewing Messages: If messages from the crew roll by too quickly and you think you missed something critical, select PREVIOUS MESSAGE. Your ten previous messages will appear in the message bar. Select NEXT MESSAGE to scroll forward through the previous messages until you come to the latest message you received. Navigation Board From the Navigation Board you can set your sub's course and track your targets. Plotting All Tracks: Turn on ALL TRACKS to see the tracks of all targets on the map. Tracks appear as lines of small dots. The closer the dots are in the line, the slower that target is moving. Plotting the Target Track: Turn on TARG TRACK to see your selected target's track only. Plot and Time Projection: Use these to see where you and a target will be in a given amount of time, if you both maintain the present course and speed. Move the cursor to one of the arrows on the left side of the TIME PROJECTION box. Press Button A to change the number of minutes for your projection. Then turn on PLOT PROJ. A yellow marker will show you what your position will be in the selected time at your present speed and course. A dark red marker will show your target's position under the same conditions. You can now direct torpedoes to the projected point. Setting and Clearing Waypoints: A waypoint is a destination for your sub. Selecting waypoints activates the auto pilot, which will steer your sub to each waypoint in the order you set them. To set waypoints, display the top-down map. Select SET, move the cursor to where you want your sub to go on the map and press Button A. You'll see a number on the map marking that waypoint. You can have up to nine waypoints set at any one time. The auto pilot will guide the sub to each waypoint in the order you set them. Select CLEAR to erase the highest-numbered waypoint. Time Compression: Use TIME COMP to speed up the game during long transits or while waiting to get a fix on contact. Turn on TIME COMP (the box turns light blue) to compress game time, which will then speed by approximately twice as fast as real time. Turn off TIME COMP (the box turns dark blue) to return to normal time. Setting the Auto Pilot: AUTO PILOT turns on automatically when you set a waypoint. When on, the auto pilot directs your sub to waypoints in the order you set them. The auto pilot will function only if you have at least one waypoint set. It doesn't control your depth, so make sure you're not too close to the ocean floor. Neither does it set the sub's speed, but it does adjust it to make turns efficiently and quietly. After making a turn, the auto pilot resumes the previously set speed. NOTE: The auto pilot will not return to FLANK speed. If you were at FLANK speed before turning, the auto pilot will return you to FULL speed. Changing your speed or depth will not affect the auto pilot. (The auto pilot is oblivious to depth. It won't take you higher if you're about to smash into the ocean floor.) Changing the rudder setting (from the Sub Control Panel) will automatically turn off the auto pilot. Usually this happens during an emergency, when you have to change course quickly. You can head back to a waypoint (as long as it's still set) by turning AUTO PILOT back on. Targeting: Select TARGET, and then move the cursor over the contacts on the map. As the cursor touches each contact, all available information on that object will appear in the target ID box at the top of the screen. When the cursor is on a contact, you can target it by pressing Button A. Launched torpedoes will head for the currently selected target. Once a torpedo is launched, you can select any other target in the water or on land. Sub Control Panel From the Control Room you can set your speed, manually steer your sub, and control your dive. Cavitation Level Gauge: This gauge monitors your cavitation, which is the sound or partial vacuums forming and filling when your propeller spins faster than the water around it can follow. Cavitation is extremely noisy and should be avoided. Two factors affect cavitation: acceleration and depth. Quick acceleration causes the propeller to spin faster than normal, which means more noise. Since water pressure increases with depth, partial vacuums don't form as readily around your propellers the deeper you go. Avoid high cavitation levels by not setting your speed at FLANK or REV (reverse) while in shallow waters. Using the Dive Plane: The dive plane controls the rate at which you dive and surface. Point the cursor on the position you want on the dive plane, and press Button A. Lowering the handle releases air from the ballast tanks, filling them with seawater and causing the sub to dive. Raising the handle releases compressed air into the tanks, blowing out the water and causing the sub to rise. How far you lower or raise the handle determines how fast your dive or ascend. Raising the handle a few degrees will lift the sub gradually, while raising the handle all the way will cause the sub to surface quickly. Using the Throttle: Set your speed with the throttle or engine control. The numbers are percentages of your total power output. Use FLANK speed to accelerate quickly. You can't go to STD (standard), FULL or FLANK speeds at depths of 100 ft. or less because you'll make too much noise. REV (Reverse) slows you down quickly but is extremely noisy (the propeller spins opposite it's normal direction, producing high cavitation, especially between 0 and 100 ft.). NOTE: Remember that high speeds have their penalties. Not only do you become more audible to enemy sonar, you can't hear as much over your own engines and the water flowing over your hydrophones. Rudder: The rudder changes the sub's course when you're moving forward, by turning it left or right. You can control the rate at which you change course. The further you move the handle to the left or right, the "harder" (more extreme) the turn to port or starboard. NOTE: Activating the rudder turns off auto pilot, if set. Sonar Room Go to the Sonar Room to operate your listening devices. Analyzing Sounds: All ships, submarines, torpedoes and marine life make distinctive sounds. Each of these has a sound "signature" or frequency pattern that distinguishes it from other sounds. The frequency analyzer displays the sound signature of your current target. The horizontal line represents the audible frequency spectrum. Left is low frequency; right is high frequency. The vertical line represents the degree of sound received in that part of the frequency spectrum. Different objects will peak in different parts of the spectrum. Ships tend to make more noise in the low end; torpedoes in the higher end. Subs and marine life tend to peak nearer the middle of the spectrum. To get positive ID, you must be able to recognize the individual sound signature of an object. This takes experience. It can be well worth your while to know the signatures of torpedoes and enemy subs when you're surrounded by unknown contacts and you need to act fast! Filtering Sound: Sound waves travel at many frequencies through the ocean. Generally, you should set the FILTER on BND PASS (band pass) so you can monitor all of them. Torpedo engines make noise in the high frequency range, and torpedo sonar arrays emit high frequency "pings" when actively searching for a target. Set the FILTER on HI PASS in critical situations to filter out everything except high frequency noise. Sending Active Sonar: The targeting pulse is your active sonar. Selecting this sends a sonar "ping," which informs you of everything that's ahead of you. The problem is, it also alerts an enemy to your presence. Using Your Towed Array: The towed array is a long cable with a series of microphones along its length that heighten the sub's listening capabilities. However, towed arrays oscillate at high speeds, creating a good deal of noise and producing drag. For these reasons, towed arrays limit the sub's speed: 2/3 in the 688 or 700; 1/2 in the Alfa. Towed arrays can be over 2,000 feet long and must be reeled out. As you can expect, this takes some time. Select DEPLOY under TOWED ARRAY to reel it out. Select RETRIEVE to pull it back in. Situations may arise in which you must accelerate quickly even though your towed array is deployed. In these situations, you must decide whether or not to cut the array's cable. Once you've cut the cable, the towed array is gone for the rest of the mission. Periscope Station From the Periscope station you can look out over the surface of the ocean for reconnaissance. Reading Your ESM Level: The ESM (Electronic Sensing Measures) gauge senses how strong an enemy's radar is at your location. Enemy radar can detect not only your raised periscope or antenna, but also the wake they leave in the water. The stronger the ESM signal, the faster you'll be discovered. Always lower your periscope as soon as you can. Raising and Lowering the Periscope and Antenna: You can set the PERISCOPE and ANTENNA boxes to UP or DOWN to raise and lower the equipment. You must be at 20 ft. (periscope depth) or higher to raise the periscope or antenna. Raising your periscope changes the map display to a periscope view. Select T from the map controls to switch back to the map. Select P to return to periscope view. Raising the antenna lets you communicate with satellites to receive mission orders. NOTE: While your periscope or antenna is up, watch the ESM level to keep your chances of detection low. Rotating the Periscope: Select the arrows under PERISCOPE ROTATION to rotate the periscope relative to magnetic north (000 degrees). Launching a Weapon: Select LAUNCH to fire a weapon that you selected on the Weapons Control Panel. When a weapon is selected, its icon will appear in the box to the right of LAUNCH. The color changes just as in the Weapons Room. Weapons Control Panel Torpedo Tubes and Auxiliary Tubes: The 688 is outfitted with four main torpedo tubes at the bow and two auxiliary tubes amid ship for noisemakers. The Alfa has six torpedo tubes at the bow only, but the sixth tube launches noisemakers. Armed weapons aren't stored in the tubes, so you must order your crew to load torpedoes. First select a torpedo tube by moving the cursor to that tube and pressing Button A. Press Button A again to start the arming cycle (an icon of the type of torpedo in the tube will appear). When the weapon is ready to fire, the weapon icon will change colors. The weapons officer will also inform you that the torpedo is ready to launch. The Weapons Control Panel can only monitor six torpedoes or a six-item combination of torpedoes and noisemakers at any time. It's not always a good idea to let six torpedoes loose at one time-at any moment you might need to launch a noisemaker to evade enemy torpedoes. Missile Selection: Though the more recent ships of the 688 class are equipped with vertical launch tubes for missiles, the Los Angeles fires its missiles from its torpedo tubes. Missiles are loaded and launched in the same way as torpedoes. Select the missile box, then select it again to initiate the arming cycle. The missile icon will appear as long as you still have missiles on board. When the icon turns a darker color, it's ready to fire. Select LAUNCH to fire the missile. Since room aboard a submarine is limited, you'll carry only a small number of missiles. Missiles are used against surface targets only. Launching a Weapon: Select LAUNCH to fire a torpedo, noisemaker or missile, depending on the weapon in the selected torpedo tube. Controlling Torpedoes: Use the TORPEDO CONTROL functions to guide a torpedo to a target or location, or set it on an active search program. The functions will prove to be important capabilities when your torpedo loses its target, or in any situation where you don't have a firm fix on an enemy vessel that you want to destroy. SELECT: Use this command to control a launched torpedo. After launch, select this command, and then select your torpedo. Then select one of the following commands: SEARCH: Sets the torpedo on an active search. The torpedo will run a search pattern and begin emitting sonar pings to help it find the target. DIRECT: Select this, then move the arrow to where you expect your target to be if it maintains its course. Press Button A to direct the torpedo there. Directing a torpedo will only send it to a specific location. When the torpedo nears its destination, you have to set it on SEARCH so it will look for a target. If you don't initiate a search pattern, the torpedo will drift until it runs out of fuel. DETONATE: Your own torpedo may lose its original target and end up locking-on to you or a friendly ship. In a situation like this you may decide it's safer to just blow it up. Make sure the torpedo is at a safe range-it doesn't have to actually hit something to do damage. A launched torpedo has a guidance wire, 7.5 nautical miles long, connecting it to your sub. If the wire is cut, you can no longer control the torpedo. You'll be informed when a torpedo has gone off course, and the torpedo marker on the map will darken. A freed torpedo will seek a target until it detonates or runs out of fuel. Status Panel The Status Panel shows the condition of your sub. Reviewing Damage: Your crew will tell you when a severe hit or scraping the bottom has damaged one of the sub's systems. Damaged systems will also be highlighted in the diagram. To review the damage your sub has taken, use SELECT to scroll through the status of each of the sub's systems. If a system has been damaged, the status bar will tell you its operational condition. For example, a hard hit to the stern could damage the sub's engines. The status might read: "Maximum power reduced." A damaged system remains damaged for the duration of the mission. In combat, your crew is too busy running the sub to repair anything. At any given moment, you have to make do with what you have.

ATP Tour Championship Tennis Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text ACE TRICK To get an ACE every time you serve, stand your character at the mid-point of the court, and tap any button to serve. Immediately after, press and hold the D-Pad towards the direction you're serving to and press Button C. If you press Button C too soon, your serve most likely will result in a LET or FAULT. It takes great timing and skill to master this trick (in other words, practice makes perfect)! Starting Out with a Newly Created Character: * Give him a fast slice and slow flat in both arms. * Assign him all 10 points in the FOOTWORK category. * Always use cross-slice patterns for easier victories. * To confuse the opponent, use a combination of different returns when receiving a serve. * Use the ACE TRICK as much as possible. * Volley upwards with a cross slice to avoid hitting the net (when near the net). As You Win Tournaments: * Assign your points to one specific area (i.e. Forehand Power=5). * Utilize more ACE TRICKS against more difficult opponents. * Play a little closer to the net with either Button A or B. * Fish your opponent closer to the net, then hit a high lib over your opponent's head. * Watch out for Michael Chang; he's one of the tour's fastest players. * Watch out for Pete Sampras; he's a sneaky net player (don't let him lure you). * Watch out for Thomas Muster; he's one of the tour's best slicers.

For hundreds of years, we humans have carelessly polluted our planet. And what we didn't litter, the twisted Dr. Machino and his evil auto-polluting robots have now dirtied up for good. Is there any hope left for this tired old planet Earth? You bet! One last force opposes Dr. Machino and his messy minions...One final hope shines forth in our 11th-hour quest to clean up our act and honor our environment. That force is--Awesome Possum! Awesome Possum Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text How to Use Your Control Pad: * A, B, or C: Makes Awesome jump in the air, or swim in the ocean world.

Awesome Possum Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text How to Play: Your goal in Awesome Possum is to reach the final level and kick Dr. Machino's butt! And of course along the way, you want to pick up recyclables, collect Mega-Powers, explore new environments, and have lots of fun! Awesome journeys through four different worlds: The Rain Forest, The Sea Caverns, The Arctic Circle, and Dr. Machino's Domain. Each world has three levels and three bonus levels. At the end of each world you have to fight the "boss." If you survive Dr. Machino's Domain, you get a chance to confront Dr. Machino himself in The Fortress of Garbage. Defeat Machino's Mechanical Monsters Dr. Machino's robotic bad guys are destroying the environment, but you can stop them by jumping on their heads until they blow up. Make sure you're moving downward when you hit them, or you'll be hurt instead. Whenever you're spinning in a ball, you're safe from everything except explosives. You turn into a ball whenever you're moving really fast or doing well in battle. Collect Recyclables Garbage is everywhere! Collect recycling points by picking up newspapers and aluminum cans you find. Once you collect 50 recyclables, Awesome becomes fully healed and gains an extra life. Find Checkpoints Running into a wooden "Checkpoint" sign will allow Awesome to start from there next time he gets defeated. Touch the Bonus "B" If Awesome touches a winged letter "B," he'll get to go to the bonus level at the end of the current level. Ride the Animals You can get help from your animal friends, the Rhino, the Giant Bee, the Manta Ray, and the Arctic Bird. When you ride the Rhino he'll destroy everything in his path, and he'll throw you far and high when you jump off. You can ride the Bee, the Manta, and the Bird as well, and you can harm bad guys by flying (or swimming) down on top of them. Find the Win Banner Walking into a "Win" banner lets you win the level and move on to the next one. If you can't break through the banner, it means you have to find the level "boss" and vanquish him. Playing Possum If you're close to the ground, press down on the joypad immediately after getting hit. When you hit the ground you'll pretend to be dead, and most bad guys will leave you alone. Go to Checkpoint/Leave Bonus Level If you get lost, stuck or frustrated, press Start to pause the game; then tap the joypad. The message on the screen will now say "Go to Checkpoint" or "Leave Bonus Level." Press Start again and it will take you back to the last checkpoint or, if you're in a bonus level, it will take you to the start of the next level. Mega-Power Items: * The Mega-Speed power-up lets you move really fast. * The Mega-Jump power-up lets you jump really high. When you jump you'll go into a ball immediately, allowing you to defeat bad guys even from beneath. The combination of Mega-Speed and Mega-Jump is especially powerful! * Extra Health restores you to full health. * Extra Life gives you an extra life. But you knew that. Environmental Questions: After you win a level, you go to a question screen where the animals will test Awesome's knowledge of nature and the environment. If Awesome correctly answers the question (selected at random from a database of over 300 questions), he'll receive 10,000 points. NOTE: The questions and answers were received from a variety of sources and are believed to be accurate, but don't freak out if one or two turn out to be wrong. Science is an ongoing process of discovery, and sometimes scientists learn new facts and change their minds. The purpose of the question is not to shovel facts into your head; the purpose is to surprise you with some fun, interesting bits of knowledge--things you may not have known! Awesome Possum Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Hints and Tips: * Gathering recyclables is really important! Those extra lives come in handy! * Avoid waterfalls! * Make sure to get the Bonus "B," because some of the bonus levels have lots of goodies! * Defeat the robots in the Rain Forest to minimize damage to the forest. * In the Ocean world, drop to get away from the torpedoes. * Watch out for the bright yellow spikes in Dr. Machino's Domain! * For the harder levels, try to kill off the robots the first time through. That way, you won't keep losing lives every time you restart the level. * Sometimes it's best to wait until you really need it before grabbing extra health (or before getting your 50th recyclable). * You may not always want to grab the Mega-Speed.

I'm the Jester. That's all...The Jester. Wizard of Wit. Sultan of Insultin'. Poohbah of Putdowns. Tyrant of Trash Talk. Duke of Dozens. Ayatollah of I-told-ya-sos. Godfather of Gross-Outs. You wanna bust my Ballz? Lotsa luck, Chuck. It's going to take you a while to get to my level. You're fightin' for belts but you're takin' welts. You start with nuttin' and you take a whoppin'. Punch your way to red or you'll wind up dead. Wanna get to green? Your clock we'll clean. Advance to blue when you got a clue. And I'll cut you no slack when you get to black. Pick up belts along the way, 'cause you can't advance to the next level without 'em. You probably won't need to know that, because you'll probably wheeze somewhere around red. By the way, it's real important that you stop and read the rude comments on the scoreboard. They're mine. This way you'll be distracted, get shattered, and lose-which is exactly what I want to happen to you, dingleberry. When you lose, I laugh. Nobody ever said that the Ballz Arena was a nice place.

In 2 Player mode, you can change the match settings to 1-of-1, 3-of-5, 6-of-11, or 11-of-21. * One Perfekta is awarded if you shatter your opponent with no damage to your fighter.(A fireball will appear on the TV.) * Kicks are generally slower than punches but cause more damage. * If you are hit three times in a row without blocking or fighting back, your fighter will become dizzy. When In Close Quarters * Grapple Duels: A grappling duel begins when you move close to your opponent and press the Punch Button. Both players must then rapidly press the Punch Button and whoever presses it faster will win the grapple and deliver a special attack. * Close Grab: Press the Kick Button when you're close to your opponent to grab him and execute a devastating attack. Escaping * Whenever you are being held by your opponent(e.g. spanked by Divine), you are dizzy, or otherwise incapacitated, try pressing the Punch Button rapidly to escape or recover. Special Moves * Some special moves work only when in a crouching position or when in the air. Aerial Defense * Every fighter has some sort of aerial defense move(e.g. Boomer's D-Pad Up + Punch move). These moves will damage opponents attempting to attack from the air. Morph Moves * Secret key combos will let you morph into any of the 8 fighters to take advantage of the different fighting styles. * You will remain morphed into the new fighter until the end of the round(or until you choose to morph into another). Begging For Mercy * Allows you to gain health back when fatigued, but leaves you vulnerable while you're doing it...and it's humiliating. * Press the D-Pad Down several times rapidly whenever you are fatigued to begin groveling. You must keep tapping the D-Pad Down to gain back health. Taunts * Performing the taunt will increase the damage delivered on the subsequent attack by either player. Taunts are addictive; doing several in a row will increase the damage even more. * To execute a taunt, press punch + Kick + Jump(all at the same time). Explosions and Cyclones * Some special moves(e.g. explosion, tornado) will cause damage to opponents even if they are blocking. * If an explosion or cyclone attack is executed but the opponent is not hit, the player executing the move will end up scrambled and helpless until the opponent hits him.

Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text BARKLEY: Shut up and Jam! is basketball stripped to its roots: pure streetball on graffiti-covered courts with chain nets and worn-down backboards. It's a two-on-two battle where the tough reign supreme and politeness takes a vacation! Shut Up and Jam! offers a unique sideline view that keeps you so close to the action you'll be ducking elbows! All seven unique street courts are located in different cities throughout the U.S. Master your moves in a single game, or work your way through the streets to take on Charles BARKLEY's "Super Team" in the arena. With no refs, almost anything goes as players slam and jam their way across the court. Four player adapter support lets you play an intense two-on-two jam with your friends, with commentary from Sir Charles himself. Each of the 16 street players sports his own personality and signature moves, including flying slams, reverses, hanging jams, 360 slams, hook shots, rim hangs and other power moves.

Button B * Offense: Passes the ball or requests a pass from a computer teammate. * Defense: Attempt to steal the ball. Button C * Activates power. Button A + B Combination * Defense: To block a dunk or super dunk, press Button A to jump, then press Button B to block. BARKLEY: Shut Up and Jam! Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Running the Floor Press the D-Button in the direction you wish the player to move. The dribble is automatic and will continue even if you are standing in one place. Shooting There are a number of shots available depending on the movement and/or location of the player. Super dunk shots are taken in and around the paint. Press Button C to activate power, then press Button A to activate a super dunk. A hook shot is taken while running perpendicular (up or down) to the basket and pressing Button A. Press Button A while running toward the basket for a layup, or press Button A, without power activated, for a dunk under or near the basket. A regular jump shot will be taken on anything else. Press and hold Button A to start the jump. Release at the top of the jump to shoot the ball. If power is activated, accuracy in completing the shot is increased. Passing Press Button B to throw a high pass, a behind-the-back pass or a long pass. If your computer teammate has the ball, press Button B and he will pass it to you. Be careful with your passes, they may be intercepted by your opponent if he is between you and your teammate. Defense While on defense, Button B is used to attempt a steal. The ability to steal varies with each player's skill rating. To defend the super dunk, press Button A to jump up (when your opponent goes up for a dunk). While in the air, press Button B to steal the ball and reject the super dunk. Power Press Button C to activate power while shooting with Button A to increase the shot odds or cause a super dunk in or near the paint. Super dunks (such as flying slams, reverse slams, 360 slams, and super slam dunks) are powerful special scoring moves. Each character has a unique variety of super dunks. In addition, the player gains speed when Button C is activated. So when you want to blow by your opponent on the baseline for a satisfying dunk, kick it up a gear. Each character gets 6 power bursts at the beginning of each quarter. You earn more power by making a steal or hitting three point shots successfully. Goal Tending Shut Up and Jam! is an aggressive, all out scoring battle played mostly on the honor system. To keep gameplay fair, goal tending will be called when a defensive player blocks a shot that is above the rim and moving downward. If a team is called for goal tending, the offense's shot will be tallied in the score and the goal-tending team will inbound the ball. BARKLEY: Shut Up and Jam! Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Team selection could make the difference between winning and losing. Try choosing one player with a high three-point rating and the other with high steal and rebound ratings for the ultimate team combination! * Use your power (C) button wisely, as your power supply is limited. However, a successful three-point basket or steal earns you extra power. * Never underestimate the value of the three-pointer. If you fall behind, you can catch up in a hurry with some long-range sharpshooting! * Each player has at least three different monster dunks! Try shooting from different spots in the paint to activate their different super moves! * Shot blocking is a tough skill to master. To stop your opponent in his tracks, press the A Button to jump, then press the B Button to knock him silly!

The Cities Shut Up and Jam 2 includes eight styles of courts, each in a different location. In Exhibition Mode, you play in a randomly chosen city. BARKLEY: Shut Up and Jam! 2 Court Time Use Up/Down to scroll text ON THE COURT: RUNNING THE FLOOR: The players have the run of the entire court. That's a lot of room for four guys to run around in, so make use of it. RUN: While the ball is in play, your active player will run in which ever direction you press the D-Pad. If he has the ball, he will dribble it automatically. SWITCH PLAYERS (OFFENSE ONLY): If your teammate is under the control of the computer, you can take control of him by pressing Button C while he has the ball. The computer then automatically controls your other teammate. POST UP: If your active player has the ball near the basket, with his back to it, you can back-pedal dribble in (post up) by pressing the D-Pad toward the basket. PASSING: Something happens to players who don't know how to pass. They get mugged! Learn where to pass or your opponents will thank you and your team mate will pretend he doesn't know you. GROUND PASS: Press Button B to make your active player pass the ball to your teammate or if he is under the control of the computer, to have him pass the ball to your active player. The kind of pass thrown depends on where the passing and receiving players are standing and what direction they are facing. JUMP PASS: If your active player doesn't have a clear path for a pass you can do a Jump Pass by pressing Button A to jump, then Button B to pass while he is in the air. SHOOTING & DUNKING: The player with the ball can make several different shots depending on where he shoots from. Experience will teach you which shots work best from each location. Remember, different players have different shooting abilities. JUMP SHOT: The jump shot is the most common shot in the game and is done by pressing and holding Button A then releasing it at the top of the jump. DOUBLE CLUTCH: If your shot isn't clear, you can change it in mid-jump by pressing Button A a second time. The change will vary depending on location and works great for faking out your opponent. HEAD FAKE: A head fake can fool your opponent into thinking that you're going for a jump shot so you can drive to the basket when he jumps for the block. Quickly tap Button A twice to initiate. REBOUND: So your team mate isn't a perfect shot. When he misses press it, you can make him run with it, pass it or you can press Button A again to make him jam a put back in the hole. LAY-UP: The lay-up is your basic finger-roll shot. Press Button A while your active player is running close up and toward the basket. BASIC JAMS: Press Button A while your active player is running very close under the basket. SPECIAL JAMS: With your active player running, press Button A then C and D-Pad (Up, Down, Left or Right) to see some amazing stuff. Be careful though, the higher the jam the more vulnerable it is to a defensive facial. TIP: Try double-clutching out of a special jam by pressing Button A while in the air. ALLEY-OOPS: If your computer controlled teammate is near the goal, press Button C to make him jump then press Button B to pass him the ball. He will automatically try to shoot or put it in the hole. If your teammate is under the control of another human player, press Button B to pass him the ball when he is in position and hope he takes care of the rest. TIP: If you think you're hot, when your team mate is a computer player, try pressing Button C to make him jump (when you have the ball) then Button B to pass to him. Just before he receives the pass, press Button C to switch to that player. After you receive the ball, handle the rest. DEFENSE: Never under estimate the importance of defense in your game. You can score all day, but it won't do you any good if your opponents do the same, so don't let them. Don't worry about fouls because there's no ref around to call them. There is a lot of Barkley style defense in Shut Up and Jam 2, so use it! STEAL: You can make your active player reach in to steal the ball from your opponent by moving your player in close and pressing Button B. Stealing ability and the ability to keep the ball from being stolen vary from player to player. FLAGRANT FOUL: If you can land an elbow, you will not only have the pleasure of watching your opponent fall flat on his butt, but you will knock the ball free for a turnover or gain possession. Press Button C to take a swing. CAUTION: If you miss, your opponent will blow past you. BLOCK: If you make your active player jump by pressing Button A, you might be able to block your opponent's shot or dunk. Press Button B while you are up there to swat at him and the ball. Timing is key! REBOUND: When all of your other defenses have failed, but your opponents shot misses the hole, press Button A to make your active player jump for the rebound. If he gets the ball, he can pass it off in the air or hit the ground with possession. GOALTENDING: Shut Up and Jam 2 is an aggressive, all out scoring battle played mostly on the honor system, but has just one little rule to keep things fair. Goaltending will be called on any defensive player who intercepts a shot while it is moving downward toward the basket. When goaltending is called the offensive team will get their points and the defensive team will take out the ball. PAUSE OPTION: At any point during the game, you can press start to pause. The screen will display three options: * Resume: Let's you resume the game. * Quit: You can quit the game and return to the Title Screen. * Music On/Off: Toggles music on or off. Press the D-Pad Up or Down to highlight an option then press START to select. THE JUICE BAR: Located at the bottom of the screen next to each player's name is an orange "juice" bar. This juice bar is NOT to be mistaken as a "turbo" bar - you have to earn your juice. The juice bar shrinks and grows based on your gameplay. You earn more juice if you sink a 3-point jumper or super jam, steal the ball from an opponent, throw a flagrant foul and gain possession, intercept a pass or block a dunk. Your juice decreases if your pass is intercepted, the ball is stolen or a dunk is blocked. If the juice bar reaches half, or better, it's capacity, your abilities increase. The bar turns white if you are fully "juiced." The bar resets to the default value when the quarter or half ends. STATISTICS: After each half and end of game a statistics screen will appear to show how well the four players have played. The statistics are: * 2 Pts: the number of successful two point shots made and the number of two point shots attempted. A 5-6 would indicate 5 successful two point attempts 6 shots. * 3 Pts: The number of successful three point field goals made and the number of three point field goals attempted. A 1-3 would indicate 1 success in 3 attempts. * Assists: The number of times a player has helped his teammate score a basket. * Steals: The number of steals. * Blocks: The number of rejections. * Boards: The total number of rebounds under both the offensive and defensive boards. TO RESUME A SAVED TOURNAMENT: 1) Select Tournament from the Main Menu. TheTourn- ament Options Screen will appear. 2) Select Resume Tournament from the Tournament Options Screen. The Saved Games Screen. The Saved Games Screen will appear. NOTE: Resume Tournament is selectable only if there is at least one saved Tournament. 3) Press D-Pad Up or Down to move the spinning basketball next to the Tournament name you want to resume. 4) Press START to continue the saved Tournament. BARKLEY: Shut Up and Jam! 2 Players Use Up/Down to scroll text PLAYERS Newts Sleep, eat, and play basketball. This guy is so good, he can do all three at the same time. Unfortunately, he only sleeps in mid-air and his favorite meat is 2 on 2 players who think they can beat him with a head fake. Kimo Playing ball in the hot sun of Hawaii did something to Kimo. He thinks beach balls are brown and dimpled. He thinks sun block is something you do to your Dad on the court. And a wave is what you'll be doing when he blows by you in the lane. Angsta This guy's so bad, even the backboards shake when he shows up. Word around the 'hood is that playing streetball's kept this guy out of trouble. But try to take him face-up and you'll wish he was doing time somewhere else. Coalidge This guy learned hoop from his sisters. They taught him the cross over dribble. They showed him the behind-the-back aerial jam. They made him shoot threes until he made 20 in a row. But don't talk trash about them. They might come after you. Sphinx This guy is a landmark on the courts. He doesn't say much, but his jams rock like the pyramids. He runs like he's riding on a magic carpet and his defense is a river named "Denial." Rhino Ever notice that freight trains barely seem to be moving even when they're going 40 mph? I think you know what I'm saying. Kreep Scary. That's about the only word I can think of to describe this guy. He's crazy about going for the ball. He's nuts about doing aerial slams. He's out of control, out of his mind and out to beat your sorry butt every time. Tyrone Tyrone is not a gentleman. He doesn't share. He is not courteous. He doesn't respect other people's feelings. He is always grumpy and people say he has a bad attitude. No wonder I like this guy so much. Bones There ain't enough meat on these bones to feed a wiener dog for a day. In fact, the boy's so gangly, you think he's going to fall apart in mid air when he winds up for one of his "Bone-Daddy" jams. Well, he doesn't fall apart. And even after 3 hours on the court, neither does his game. Tino Some guys work hard. Some guys have talent. Other guys are so mean, people just try to get out of their way. I don't know what it is about this guy that makes him so good, but I'll tell you this much, whatever it is, it's dangerous. Barkley's Teammates You sure you want a piece of this? You are looking at 8 of the toughest streetball players in the world. Get a good look because you're going to be spending a lot of time with 'em. And they'll be looking to get a piece of you. Blade Watch out for Blade. The man plays like a concealed weapon. He gets you looking right, he cuts left. You take him on at the top of the key, he'll slash in for a rim-bending jam. Dolemite Dolemite is 2-on-2 slang for a guy who thinks he oughta have the ball all the time. One time, a guy called him "Hog a mite" when he wouldn't pass it inside for an easy lay up. Now that I think about it, that dude doesn't play around here anymore. Hamma From 3-point land...WHAM! Jumper from the baseline...BAM! Over the middle with a jump hook...POW! Around the back, mid-air 360...KABOOM! Anywhere on the court, this guy will hit it. And people who play against him take their jumps. Jim-Pak In the martial arts, you learn to control your body and your mind. They must have kicked this guy out of class a long time ago. On the blacktop, Jim-Pak is all elbows and forearms. It ain't pretty, but it works. Pauly Couple years back, this guy was just a skinny little kid who liked to hang around the courts and bug us until we let him shoot the ball. Now that he's 6'6" and weighing in around 220, we can't get it away from him. Shuga Sweet on "D," sweeter in the air. When you play against Shuga, you'll be taking on a guy who's so smooth, it's almost worth it to just sit back and watch him play. With the scores this guy racks up, I think that's what most people do anyway. Spider Remember the one about the eensy-weensy spider climbing up the water spout? Imagine that spider with a 52" vertical leap and speed like a jack rabbit. I'm just glad he doesn't bite. Bongo This dude loves music. Rap, rock, reggae, he doesn't care. Too bad the only songs he knows are "Slam On You" and "Scuse Me While I Hit The Three." Can't carry a tune, but the boy knows how to play.

Welcome to the BASS Masters Classic. My name is Hank. Think of me as your unofficial host. I'll tell you what you need to know. This tour consists of four three-day tournaments at four lakes. First one is at Skull Lake. You'll see my bait shop there and get to know your way around the dock area, but first you'll need to take care of a few things.

Bass Masters Classic The Anglers Use Up/Down to scroll text It'll help if we both know who you are. Choose a player identity by scrolling through the nine anglers and their bios by pressing the D-Pad RIGHT or LEFT. When you find yourself, press the Start Button. Here is what I think of them: Bill E. Poxey Bass can fight all they want to, but Bill sticks to them like glue. A pro angler with the heart of a lion, endurance is his best asset. "When the bass runs with the bait, let him take line," he advises. "He'll just tire himself out, and then he's yours!" Good advice from a top-ranked pro. "Doc" Holiday He's got the hands of a surgeon and needle-sharp hooks. He earned his nickname because he rarely loses a fish once he hooks it--and like any successful doctor, he has plenty of patience. "You must always use a good hook and the right line," he says. His favorite knot is the Surgeon's Loop. Bonnie B. Wild Bonnie spends hours in front of her home aquarium, watching how bass feed. Some say she thinks like a fish. She's a tough gal, but that doesn't help her in fishing. Her secret is her ability to attract bass by using the right lure and knowing the best locations to find fish. Dick "Dead-Eye" Dixon The most accurate caster on the pro tour and a trick caster at fishing shows, he can knock a frog off a log at 50 feet with his spinnerbait. "It doesn't matter what lure you throw, you can't catch a bass unless you put it where he lives!" he says. Dick's from Athens, Georgia. Sammy "Sonar" Simpson Sammy's best attribute is his navigation skill. He always knows where he's going--and where bass are. Keeping his eye fixed on his Eagle depthfinder for hours at a time, he doesn't cast until he spots the fish. Lowrance Electronics once hired him to find the Loch Ness Monster, but all he could locate were fish. Maureen "The Surgeon" Sturgeon Maureen grew up in Arkansas. She catches bass with surgical accuracy, avoiding the problem of catching fish that don't count in a tournament. One of the first women to compete on the pro circuit, she's always a contender for the top prize money. Charlie "The Cheetah" Carson Speed, not endurance, is his secret. He likes to land a bass before it realizes that it's been hooked. He doesn't play around with a fish when it's on the line. "You have to overpower those bass...there'll be plenty of time to play with them after you get them into the boat," he says. Javier Jackson Known as "The Magician" on the BASSMASTER Tour, Javier uses his fishing rod like a magic wand to make his lures do tricks in the water. He can even make a topwater plug walk backwards. "Bass are instinctive creatures." he says. "Keep a lure in the strike zone and make it look alive, and the fish will instinctively strike...even if they don't want to!" Dr. Iko Yokohama Formerly from Minnesota, she honed her fishing skills through ice fishing. She likes tournament fishing because the weather is usually warmer-and she gets paid doing it. She attracts bass like a dead horse draws flies, and she doesn't scare the fish away either. Iko has a Ph.D. in Archaeology and hopes to discover a new species of fish some day.

Popper- A Fiverino($5) Effective Range: 0-20 ft. Tip: Aggravate the bass with this noisy topwater lure. A good way to fire up lethargic suckers loafing around the lake bottom. How To: A popper is presented correctly by simultaneously pressing the B Button and the D-Pad in the Up direction. The popper will then bob up and down and make a popping noise. Crankbait- A Fiverino($5) Effective Range: 15-25 ft. Tip: This popular lure will dive when cranked and then float at rest. Some big bass have been snagged with crankbaits. How To: A crankbait is presented correctly by simultaneously pressing the B Button and pressing the D-Pad Down/Left or Down/Right. The crankbait will then wiggle in a life-like manner. Worms 4-5 inches- A Sawbuck($5) Effective Range: 15-25 ft. Tip: Worms are a tried and true method of taking bass from deep water. The results of a little worm can be deadly...for lunkers! An all-around bait. How To: A worm bait is presented correctly by simultaneously pressing the B Button and pressing the D-Pad down. The worm will then squirm with a life-like motion. Spinnerbait- A Simple Sawbuck($5) Effective Range: 0-15 ft. Tip: Easy to use and an award-winning bait, spinners reflect light off their spinning blade and attract bass well. Effective in heavy cover in shallow water. How To: A spinner is presented correctly by simultaneously pressing the B Button and pressing the D-Pad left or right. The spinnerbait will then spin its blade completely. Line If you're going to get the best boat, rod, reel, electronics and lures, don't rely on second-rate line to catch your bass. Different lines have different strengths. Mono 10 lb.-A Georgy Porgy($5) Cofilament 30 lb.-Fifteen Tons($15) Monster filament glow 100 lb.-A Benny F.($100) Rods The fishing rod is perhaps the most crucial element to the fishing experience. Make it count! How To: To hook a fish, pull back on your rod by pressing the D-Pad in the Down direction soon as you hear the "bark" snapping noise. After you have hooked a fish and it's trying to swim away, turn the fish back towards you by simultaneously pressing the C Button and the D-Pad in the direction opposite the way the fish is swimming. Fiberglass Flexorod-($25) Graphite Gung Ho-($75) Boron Bassace-($100) Reels Don't get caught fishing for adult bass with a kiddie reel. Buy something worth attaching to your rod and get yourself a lunker! How To: To reel in your line, press the A Button. The faster you press it, the faster you'll reel in. Press and hold the B Button, then press the proper D-Pad direction(s) to animate the lure. The B Button will also reel in the lure if the above is not done correctly. Be careful, if a fish is hooked, the line will cut and you'll lose your lure. If you press the A Button and C Button simultaneously, it will automatically bring the lure back to the boat. If you have a fish on the line, when you press the A and C Buttons, the line will snap. Push Button Spincast Reel-($25) Rear Drag Spinning Reel-($65) Baitcsting Reel-($100) Fishfinders Your fishing stuff won't do you much good unless you can find the fish, now will it? How To: Fishfinders make a sonar "blip" when the boat is directly over fish. You should note that location on the overhead map and then move your boat a little ways from the location, then cast into the noted area. Eagle Supra Pro I.D.-($95) Lowrance X-70A LCD-($480) Engines A faster engine lets you make better time across the lake. Remember, every minute your competitors are gaining on you. How can you get around the lake without a kicker of an engine? How To: The A Button moves the boat forward, the B Button moves the boat backward. Steer the boat with the D-Pad directions Left and Right. You'll get the hang of it! You'll start out with an Evinrude 50 HP engine, but you can upgrade to: Johnson 70 hp-($6,900) Evinrude Intruder 150-($11,200) Johnson Venom 225-($13,300) Talk Every now and then I feel like talking some more. I'll be glad to give you a tip or two. Exit Exit my Bait Shop by pressing Start at the Exit sign inside. Now you're back at the dock area. What you do next is up to you. Have fun and good luck. Come back if you need anything else. Tour Info Over here you can see important things like: What temperature it is; your limit for the day; how many competitors you have; everybody's current standings; where your boat is on the overhead lake map, and(in case you stayed up a bit too late last night) the name of the lake you're on and what day of the Tournament it is. Practice Pond In the Practice Pond, practice your technique so when you go to the Tournament you'll be ready. There's no clock, so don't worry about the time you spend practicing, just catch those bass! Go Fish This is it. Good luck! Exit At the Exit Sign, press the Start Button to bring up a menu that will allow you to select New Game or Weigh In. If you want to start a whole new tourney, press the A Button and a new game will begin. Press the C Button to go to the Weigh-In early. Bass Masters Classic Tournament Rules Use Up/Down to scroll text Now that you're ready for some real fishing, familiarize yourself with the rules so you know what to do. Basic Tournament rules are: 1. Tournament time runs from 7:00 am to 3:00 pm. 2. Each Tournament consists of three days at each lake. 3. The Livewell can hold up to five bass at any one time. If you catch a bass that is larger than your fifth bass, that fifth bass will be culled(thrown back). Fish that are not bass will not go into the Livewell or be counted toward your total weight. All of these fish will be released back into the water. 4. Rankings Your rank is determined by the total weight of the largest bass you catch and successfully bring to the weigh-in area at the end of each day. Each day's total is added to the previous day for your overall ranking. You must place high enough at the end of each Tournament to advance. Qualifications are shown at the beginning of each Tournament. 5. Size Limits Each bass must be 15 inches in length to be legal. If the bass is not 15 inches long, it will automatically be released. 6. Late Penalties If you arrive at the weigh-in after 3:00 pm, two ounces for each minute you are late will be subtracted from your total. If you arrive at the weigh-in after 3:20 pm, you will be disqualified for that day.

In retaliation, Earth uses a huge laserbeam which neutralizes the battleship. When the alien ship was boarded it was found to be carrying lethal alien killing machines and the boarding party was wiped out. Realizing the potential threat the robots were deactivated and the ship was towed back to Earth for further study. While assessing the alien computers it was revealed that the aliens had sent an army of these killer robots to attack Earth. It was also discovered that the aliens had a controlling lead starship. This starship was found to be powered by twelve plasma nodes. If these nodes were knocked out the armada would grind to a complete stop and thus easily dealt with. You are amongst the most decorated elite marines. Your mission is to travel to the lead alien starship and destroy the plasma nodes. To prepare for this ultimate fight, the Battle Frenzy chip "Bloodshot" is inserted into your brain. The last thing in your mind are the words from your commander, "Do your best marine, or the Earth will be destroyed".

Once you destroy the node you have a limited number of seconds to make it back to the starting point, if your dond5t you lose a life and are returned to the node to try again. Your vantage point is first person with information broken into four boxes. The first is the largest, this is your view screen. All the action happens in this screen. There is a small map in the upper right hand of the main screen, this shows you the area of where you are. The second box is in the top left corner, this box displays all the keys you obtain. The third box which is in the top middle is where all the guns youd5ve obtained, with an ammo meter to the right, are shown. The last box is the lives and bonus box, the top is where your lives are displayed, a maximum of four. The bottom is the bonus bar which has three segments and a prize. Vs. Battle Game This is similar to the Normal game except there are no robots or plasma nodes because the object is to eliminate your opponent (another player) three times. This game is split screen so you and your opponent can watch the action of the other. Guns Basic Shoots a single white shot (you start with this weapon and itd5s always with you).

Batman Returns Sega To return to Now Playing, reset your adapter. GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Batman Returns Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text It's not what it looks like. Not at all. It wasn't Batman who released that vicious swarm of bats on the unsuspecting Ice Princess. (Though that's what a dastardly villain wants you to believe.) It was a fiendish ploy to incriminate The Caped Crusader. As a champion of goodness and justice in a city of trickery and treachery, Batman takes on the preposterous Penguin and his band of Red Triangle Circus performers. Plus you'll encounter flying gargoyles, acrobatic henchmen, various breeds of pyromaniacs and way more. And last, but most certainly not least, you'll tangle with the mistress of felines herself, the curious, spurious, mysterious Catwoman. She's not exactly a friend of yours. Although she doesn't favor the Penguin either. So don't count on anything but trouble from her...and you won't be disappointed. Keep in mind that Catwoman has nine lives, and you can be sure she'll use every last one. Now while we're on the subject of using things, you'll have quite an assortment of gadgets under your Batman belt. You'll have your infamous grappling hook that lets you scale towering heights in the time it would take you to bat an eye. You'll also have your razor-sharp, fling-it-with-your-wrist Batarang that'll stun just about any enemy you meet. Or use your Super-seeking Batarang to snuff out everyone on the screen. Blast thugs, clowns, acrobats, flame-throwers and parachuting penguins out of town with your Grappling Gun. Stun unsuspecting criminals with your smoldering Smoke Bomb. Or unleash a swarm of bats on the Penguin's crusty cronies. You start with a limited supply of weapons. But there's more hidden in and around Gotham City. So go ahead. Check behind that dark corner. Knock out that wall. You'll never know what's hidden there. You are the last hope to the people of Gotham City. And they're counting on you. Desperately. Because if Batman can't clean up Gotham City, nobody can. Batman Returns Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text Start: * Starts the game, or goes to the Options screen and then starts the game. * Pauses a game to let you select weapons from the Utility Belt. * Resumes paused game.

Note: You can only get weapons that you have. You may run out of some weapons. Using Weapons: Face Batman in the direction you want to attack and press the Special Weapons Button (Button A). Grappling: Hold the D-Button Up and press the Jump Button to release the grappling line. Then "tap" the Jump Button again to land on the next ledge. Or else "hold down" the Jump Button to shimmy up the line. Then press the D-Button Right or Left to swing. Swinging With Your Grapple: To swing from place to place, hold the D-Button Right or Left while pressing the Jump Button twice.

Punching and Kicking: * For reliable, old-fashioned martial arts defense press the Attack Button. * To punch, press the Attack Button. * To kick high, hold the D-Button Right or Left and press the Attack Button. * To kick low, hold the D-Button Down and press the Attack Button. Batman Returns Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Batman's Gadgets: What sets Batman apart from the other heroes is that he's always had the best toys. The Batmobile, Batarangs, the Batskiboat. Maybe it's because he was once a rich kid. Maybe it's because he's Bruce Wayne. But whatever the reason, there are now more great toys (or, if you prefer, weapons) than ever. Here's what you've got and how they work: Utility Belt Power-Ups: You start the game with at least one of each weapon under your belt. As you move through Gotham City, you can collect more of each weapon along the way. Your Utility Belt can carry up to 99 of each weapon. So pick up all the power-ups you can find. You'll have plenty of room to store them. Remember that you can never, ever have too many power-ups!! Batarangs: Fling 'em fast and hard. It's amazing the damage this innocent-looking little blade can do. Be sure to grab up every Batarang power-up because each one gives you 10 or even 20 Batarangs at once. Smoke Bombs: These explosives can really put the heat on someone-if you toss them right. Rush up and pound your enemy while the smoke is still in his or her eyes. Swarm of Bats: No fancy marksmanship needed here. Just release these little critters and watch what happens when they fly in the face of danger. Grappling Gun: Call it a harpoon. Call it a dart gun. Call it whatever you like. Because when you hit one of those clowns with this, they call it quits. Super-Seeking Batarang: This shining gem can track down enemies anywhere on the screen-no matter which direction you throw it. And once it tracks them down, it takes them out. Grappling Hook: To reach places too high to jump to-or where no foothold is available-use Batman's grappling hook. Fling the hook towards a ledge or opening to let it "catch." Then let the line pull you up. You can also use the grappling hook to swing from place to place to avoid danger below. To use your grappling hook, hold the D-Button Up and press the Jump Button to release the line. If the line "catches", tap the Jump Button again to jump onto the next surface. Or hold the Jump Button down to slowly move up the line. To swing from your grappling hook, hold the D-Button Up, and press the Jump Button to hook the grapple. If it hooks, press the D-Button Right and/or Left to swing back and forth or to swing from place to place. Wings: You can spread your wings and glide in midair by flapping your cape. Your wings are particularly useful when trying to collect power-ups that are in out-of-the-way places. They also help you avoid damage in dangerous places--like spiked surfaces. You start the game with a certain amount of flight power. Each time you glide, you use a little up. You can get more flight power by collecting Batman's cape power-ups. To flap your wings, hold down the Special Weapons Button when jumping or falling through the air. Batman's Boots: The soles of your boots are invincible to fire, electricity, bullets, bombs and other deadly elements. The trick is to kick to shield yourself. Batman's Lives: You may not have as many lives as Catwoman, but you can start with up to 7 lives. And you can extend your life meter and number of lives along the way by picking up hearts, pulsing hearts and Batman masks. Regular hearts give you 4 units of life energy. Pulsing hearts restore your life energy meter to full. Batman masks give you an additional life. Each time you start a new level, your life energy is restored to its full capacity. Batman Returns Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * If you can, put off picking up the health power-ups (hearts) until your life energy meter is below half. This way these power-ups are more valuable to you. * Use the swarms of bats, grappling gun and Super Batarangs sparingly. Save them for the level bosses. Regular Batarangs and smoke bombs are enough for most enemies. * Here's how to achieve wider swings once you've attached your grappling line to a surface: 1.) Keep the Jump Button pressed down. 2.) Wait for Batman to stop swinging. 3.) Lengthen the grapple line by pressing down on the D-Pad. 4.) Start swinging by pressing left and right repeatedly on the D-Pad. * Your glider wings will help you reach hard-to-get places. * You never know where you'll find power-ups. Try punching out a wall and see what happens. * Learn where the power-ups and level bosses are so you can take the most direct route. That way you won't have to battle each and every enemy. * Be patient. Don't rush an encounter or hurry through a level. You have all the time you want because you're not clocked. * Use regular Batarangs instead of other weapons whenever you can because there's an ample supply of Batarang power-ups through-out Gotham City. * To conserve your weapons, use your fists against lower-level enemies and even against level bosses whose health points are down to three or less. * Power-ups are hidden in both obvious and unlikely places. Be sure to search for them whenever you have the chance. * Don't go head-to-head against the level bosses. Be evasive. * Use your grappling line or special cape to help you get those out-of-the-way power-ups. WARNING: THE FOLLOWING SECTION MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS TO DIFFERENT SECTIONS OF THE GAME. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK! Act 1: Gotham City Level 1: Practice getting used to the gameplay in this level. In the upper right corner, you will meet up with the Catwoman. Catwoman: Start off by kicking her, then jump up or down and kick her when she follows, then repeat until she is defeated. Try not to use items, as you will need them later. Level 2: Head left and drop. Then, head right, punching the clowns. All the way to the right, drop down and head left, using Batarangs on the clowns. At the far left, drop down and head right to a giant statue head. Punch the head and drop down. Go all the way left, swinging along the roof(there are spikes on the ground, watch out). At the bottom, head right to another statue head. Punch the head and drop in the hole to find the Boss. Boss: Stand on the statue's legs and punch their faces. Items work well on these two also! Level 3: Head right, watching out for the spikes on the ground. At the far right, go up and head all the way to the left. At the end, go up again and head right to the platform with faces under them. Go up the platforms, all the way to the top while avoiding the demons. At the top, defeat the statues where the demons are coming from and a ledge will appear. Jump on the ledge to face the Penguin(don't forget to jump off after it stops). Penguin: Walk back and forth punching him when he comes down. Don't let him throw missiles at you(walking usually stops him). Act 2: Shreck's Wonderland Level 1: Head right, taking out the motorcyclists with punches and kicks(kicks will block the bullets the motorcyclist shoots from). At the far right, you will see a Boss.

Then, go left and take the stairs up and to the right. Continue to the upper left corner to find Catwoman. Catwoman: Stay in the left corner, ducked down and kicking. Level 3: Jump to the right and jump down. Head all the way down the escalator while not letting the ball touch you. To better escape the wrath of the ball, when you jump from one escalator to another, jump and when you get far enough below the escalator, hold towards the slope of the next elevator(if the elevator is going right, hold right). At the bottom, you will find a hole. JUMP over the hole and continue left to find the Penguin. Penguin: Avoid the sawblade by ducking or jumping over it. Then, jump and punch the Penguin. Act 3: The Red Triangle Circus Level 1: Head right and onto the wall. Walk right against the wall and go up. Continue right and fall into the cage. At the end of the cage, go up and right.

Then, jump right to the next house. Get on the wheel around the house and at the highest point, jump and use your wings to the right to the exit. Level 3: Head right. When you see the clowns in the mirror, duck down to the left of the mirror and kick. Head all the way right to the rope. Climb the rope and continue right on the ledges. If you go down into the net, watch out for the fire because it will burn a hole through the net and you will fall. All the way to the right, you will face the Boss. Boss: Stand at the top of the ropes in the middle and kick left and right. Level 4: Head right to a car with two white blocks on it. Jump over the first block and stand between them. Then, jump over the next one. Continue right to the next train with two white blocks on it and repeat the previous procedure. Continue all the way to the right to the Boss.

Boss: Hit his head area while jumping over the fireball he shoots out. Level 2: Go directly to the bottom and look for a hole. Drop down the hole for a special surprise. Go all the way to the right to find the Penguin. Penguin: Start off by getting next to him and kicking him. Then, when he flies away, destroy the cannon. When he comes back, use items on him until he is defeated(He is HARD without items). Act 5: The Penguin's Lair Level 1: Go right and up at the extra Batman. Continue up to the top, then head right and down. When you reach a big hole in the ground, grab onto the ceiling and swing over the hole. Continue right and drop down the next hole and head right on the little ledges. One the ledges, when you jump, immediately duck down, so that the ladies throwing axes won't hit you. Use Batarangs on the enemies here. The exit is all the way to the right. Level 2: Stand on the ledges while moving right. Kick the bullets and missiles that the enemies throw at you. The exit is all the way to the right. Level 3: Stand on the ledge, and you will float to the right. When you see the three ledges, jump up to the second one and begin using your most powerful items(try not to use the bats). When the Penguins fly at you, jump up to the top ledge to safely avoid them. When they pass, jump down and continue your assault on the Duckmobile. Once the Duckmobile is defeated, go all the way up on the brown ledges and at the top, you will face the Penguin for the final time. Penguin: Start off by heading to the right and taking out the electrical generator. Then, head over to the left side and duck down and throw Batarangs when Penguin is far away. Avoid the blue and red flames and when the Penguin gets close, kick him repeatedly. Repeat until defeated. Ending: Try not fighting the Catwoman during this screen! If you defeat her, the game will be over. Watch out for the blue flames that drop from the wires.

Since you were a young child you've dreamed of entering the arenas, matching your skills against the "Best of the Best." Your dream has turned to reality, you've been ranked sixteenth in the world and ready to enter the International World Championships. Training doesn't stop here, continue to master your moves, focus on a style or create your own. Choose between 55 possible moves and program your favorites into your style. You'll meet many tough fighters as obsessed with being the best as you are and they can't wait to see what you're made of. Rewatch your past bouts with the new VCR mode. Stun your opponent with your amazing "Smart Hits." Remember: "One must climb the mountain in order to determine the height of Heaven...One must search himself that he might find the way to reach it..." Best of the Best Championship Karate Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text Start: * Pauses and unpauses the game play. * Cycle through all selections in any given "option," or escape from any "option," fight or training sequence. D-Pad: * Moves fighter around the screen. * Takes you from option to option on the menu screen. Button A: * Fire (attack) button Button B: * Use this button in the "Select Hits" mode to program your hits and strikes. Tip: Press the B-Button in combination with up on the Control Pad and you will strike a "Smart Hit." You have 3 "Smart Hits" to use each round. Use them sparingly. If you use up your smart hits early in a round and you find yourself in trouble later on you'll be hurting...badly. The Smart Hits are represented by the three yellow circles next to a player's name. The filled circles are Smart Hits that are ready to use, and the empty circles are ones that have been used already. Button C: * Use this button to operate the VCR mode as well as the "Kick Pad" mode in the "Training" mode. Best of the Best Championship Karate Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text MENU SCREEN Grading: The purpose of the "Grading Option" is to display the high scores of the various players, expressed in dollars, and the prizes they won. There are two ways of rating fighters: One in dollars, reflecting the strength level of a fighter, his resistance to attack and his reflexes. The second way of rating fighters is according to the trophies owned by the individual fighter. (If you have one or several trophies you automatically appear in the trophy classification.) Pad Vs. Sega: This option allows you to determine the configuration of the commands available to you during the game. Several different choices exist: * Pad-vs-Sega: Selecting this command will mean that you select the left fighter on the screen as yourself and you play against the Sega Genesis. * Sega-vs-Pad: This is the same as above apart from the fact that you select the right player as yourself. * Pad-vs-Pad: Selects the two player mode. In a two player game, player one is always the fighter on the left. Player two is always the player on the right. Select Hits: There are 55 different hits and you are able to select 13 of these. This unique limitation to 13 blows allows an immediate access to the technique you wish, which means more rapidity in striking and higher precision in your performances. To select the hits press: * A Button: To validate the hit selected and its position. * B Button: To select the hit position on the pad. * C Button: To visualize the hit selected. * Start: To return to the main menu. * D-Pad: Up, down, left or right to select your hits and press the pad left or right in combination with the A Button, to cycle through all the possible selections of moves. Move the Control Pad to the movement you wish to preview and watch to see if it is a movement you desire to add to your 13 shots. Move to the A Button, press it, and look for the illuminated arrow on the grid squares to the right of the screen. Move the arrows around the grid squares to program the control of each move. When you have made your selection press the A Button to enter it. Remember in the match what your designed control was and press the programmed direction on the Control Pad plus the A-Button. Now you can perform just about any move, that is if you programmed it in your "arsenal!" Physical Type: To enter this option, press and hold down either the A, B, or C Button. You can then view the characteristics of the player you intend to select as an opponent or to represent yourself. Preview: This option will enable you to preview the fighting styles of both you and your opponent. Watch the screen carefully because if you know your opponent's moves you should be able to decide what moves in the "Select Hits" mode will be most effective in the ring! (Press any button to escape.) Match: This is it! Press the B Button to begin the fight. Next Boxer: This option allows you to cycle through all of the opponents you'll face in the ring. Here's a tip: If you have already fought someone and won, don't fight 'em again, advance to the next contender. Here's how to do it: Move the D-Pad to the "Next Boxer" block and press the B-Button to cycle through the choices. Let it be known that you cannot fight every fighter immediately. If your ranking is too low you will not be able to fight the top notch fighters of the world circuit until your ranking is improved. How do you do this? Keep training and fighting. Patience is a virtue! Training: This is the best way for you to build up your strength, resistance and reflexes. There are three types of "Training" you can participate in: * Sparring mode: This allows the player to hone his skills and build up his resistance to attack. * Bag mode: This allows the player to build up his strength by using the punching bag. Constantly press the C Button and you'll start to wail on it. See what happens! * Kick Pad mode: This allows the player to increase his reflexes. Press up on the pad for a high kick; right for a medium kick; down for a low kick. You've got the greed for speed! Best of the Best Championship Karate The Match Use Up/Down to scroll text THE MATCH The time has come for you to enter the ring! The name of the game is pound or be pounded! To start the fight move the D-Pad to "Match" and press any button. After a few seconds the fight begins. Press the B Button and you are ready to rock. If there is too much of a difference between the two fighter's levels, the fight will be refused! Before the fight, a Pom Pom girl shows you the round number. As can be guessed she shows up in between rounds as well. (To erase her from the screen press the B Button.) Before you now lies the ring. The information board is situated above the ring and consists of a chronometer and two rows of footlights. The chronometer indicates how long you have to fight before the end of the round. Each round lasts one minute. Each footlight strand is located above the corner of each fighter. The row with the brighter lights indicates which fighter is leading the match. (This is a good clue as to why the brightness of the light strands will vary, according to the landed blows, during the fight.) There are four projectors on each footlight strand and each projector has three different intensities of lighting: * Yellow: Maximum lighting which reflects maximum physical shape. * Orange: Medium lighting which reflects medium physical shape. * Black: Null lighting which reflects null physical shape. (When the four projectors above a fighter's corner are black, it means that the fighter is knocked out and loses the fight.) STRIKING A BLOW To strike a blow, just move the Control Pad in one of the 13 available positions (in coordination with the A Button for some moves.) The blow corresponding to the chosen position is automatically struck. HITTING YOUR OPPONENT To make sure that your blow hits your opponent, your attacking zone (fists, feet, etc.)must touch a non-protected and sensitive part of your opponent (head, torso thigh). If you are too close to your opponent, or too far from him, your strike will miss its target. A circular kick will hit your opponent if he stands in the blow trajectory. For example: if you are behind your opponent (closer to the ropes than he is) and you strike a circular kick (aiming at the back ring) your circular kick will certainly not touch your opponent. On the other hand, if your circular kick is aimed in your opponent's direction (in the front of the ring), the chances are your kick will hit him. For your blow to hit your opponent you must stand in the correct position when you begin your attack. PARRY AND DODGE To parry a blow you must move the Control Pad in the down position without pressing the A Button. Depending on your fighter's reflex percentage he will then choose a more or less efficient parrying position. If there is no attack he automatically chooses the parry position. BLOW When you strike a blow, some parameters will define its quality: * The strength of the attacker. * The resistance of the opponent. * The power of the blow. * The part of the body hit by the blow. All scoring is kept according to these parameters. The variations in the projector's lighting reflects a fighter's vitality. When all of the projectors of a fighter are turned off or black, that fighter loses the fight. (It is also possible that, after a blow to the head, a fighter could fall to the ground and lose some vitality.) After a blow to the body such as this the victim will become noticeably dizzy when he returns to his feet. At this time his strength will INCREASE and his reflexes will DECREASE! Watch for this! RECOVERY This happens automatically at the end of each round. Recovery time is 30 seconds and allows the fighters to regain lost strength /vitality. Recovery is also possible during a fight when there is no attack or when the opponent falls to the ground (eats the canvas). CLINCH When two fighters fight too close to one another, they sometimes clinch. The referee must then separate them. HALF TURN It may happen that after receiving a blow you find yourself turned around with your back to your opponent. It is essential that you make a half turn in order to go on fighting and not go down with the ship. You have two ways of executing this half turn: * Totally release all D-Pad Buttons which will automatically take a neutral position and turn the fighter to face the opponent. * Secondly, move the D-Pad in the down position without pressing the A Button. The half turn will be automatically executed! UMPIRING The referee's job is to oversee the match and the behavior of the two fighters. He stops the fight when one of the fighters strikes the same blow three times in succession. (Varying your blows is one of the essential parts of a quality fight.) When a fighter falls to the ground the referee stops the fight to allow him to get up. If a fighter is knocked out, the referee counts to eight to give him time to regain consciousness. If the fighter is unable to fight again within the required time, the referee counts up to ten and proclaims the other fighter as the winner. END OF THE FIGHT At the end of the last round the fighter with the more lit projectors wins the fight. If the loser has one of several trophies the winner gets the smaller of the trophies. If the fight was not easy to win, the strength, resistance and reflexes of the winner will be increased. In this fashion the fighter is progressing in the ranking and another title is added to his prize list. The Pom Pom girl shows the trophy to the winner. The loser's parameters will automatically decrease. The beautiful Pom Pom girl will show the victor his prize at this time. Best of the Best Championship Karate Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text FIGHTING TIPS * All blows don't have the same impact. * Watch out for your distance when you attack. * Vary your blows as much as you can. * If you hit a non-reacting opponent your fighter will shrug his shoulders wondering what is going on with his opponent. Shrugging the shoulders indicates a non-motivated fighter which decreases the power of both your strike and reflex percentages during the round. * Don't let yourself get caught in a ring corner. It will keep you from using your techniques. * If two fighters are equal in points at the end of a fight, the winner will be the one who tried the most varied blows. Don't forget it! * Review your matches with the VCR mode to learn the best ways to combine punches and kicks into combinations. * In Match Play, button B selects a Smart Hit. Smart Hits are multi-kick or punch combos. You start each match with three Smart Hits. Use them when your fighter is tiring.

He comes across an uncharted island near the land of Oasis. While exploring the island's cave, he discovers an armlet made of gold. As soon as he puts on the armlet, a strange glow fills the cave. Out of an ethereal fire, a face appears, and it begins to speak. "Many years ago, a devastating battle was waged in the shadowlands of the Kingdom of Oasis. It was between two powerful sorcerers." "Reharl used his gold armlet to govern the four spirits. Agito used his silver armlet to create chaos and destruction." "I am what remains of this gold armlet. I now entrust its power to you, for you have been chosen to undergo a difficult task." "The powers of the gold armlet are now yours to wield.

Beyond Oasis Heady Spirits Use Up/Down to scroll text "He who wears the golden armlet shall control the spirits of Water, Fire, Shadow and Plant!" Ali must search for and find the four spirits in order to complete his quest. But each spirit temple is guarded by fearsome creatures. It will take all of Ali's wiles and courage to make his way past them. The special powers each spirit wields will be essential to Ali on his mission. Learn how to use these powers effectively, and return peace to Oasis. Summoning spirits is done by firing your Light Ball (spirit summoning ball of energy) at the appropriate object. For example, to summon Dytto-the spirit of water-face a body of water and press Button A. The Light Ball is then released from the golden armlet, which summons Dytto when it hits the water. To dispel a spirit, press Buttons A, B and C together. Also be on the lookout for Spirit gems, which increase your spirits' powers. NOTE: You will not be able to use the Light Ball until you have reached Dytto's temple. Water Spirit "Dytto" * Dytto can be summoned from almost any body of water, steam spouts, streams and drops of water. Water Magic: * Tap Button A to fire the "Magic Bubble" which stuns the enemy for a short time. * Tap Button A twice for "Healing," which restores some of Ali's Life Force. * Press and hold Button A until the SP meter flashes, then release to summon Dytto's "Magic Storm:" a waterspout that knocks over enemies in its path. Fire Spirit "Efreet" * Efreet can be summoned from any type of flame. He loves to bust heads with his fiery punch-no encouragement necessary-which makes him pretty handy when you're walking around. Flame Magic: * Tap Button A to fire the "Flame Breath:" a blast of flame and the competition is toast! * Tap Button A twice and Efreet turns into a "Fireball," shooting off in whichever direction he's facing. * Press and hold Button A until the SP meter flashes, then release it to summon the "Melt Bomber," a firestorm that shoots out in every direction. Shadow Spirit "Shade" * Shade is summoned from Mirrors and other reflective items. Shade becomes your mystic double, making you invulnerable to enemy attacks. * Shade also protects you from dangerous drops by lifting you up (as with Efreet, Shade protects you automatically, no button pressing necessary). Shadow Magic: * Tap Button A and Shade extends his "Dark Claw." Shade can attack enemies, grab items and transport you from place to place by grabbing onto hooks. * Press and hold Button A and Shade becomes your "Doppleganger," allowing you to search areas in your spirit form while he protects your physical body. Plant Spirit "Bow" * This perky plant has an insatiable appetite. He eats everything--snakes, giant rats, beastmen, even iron grates! Earth Magic: * Tap Button A to start Bow's "Bite Attack," whereupon he begins to chomp on whatever's around. * Tap Button A twice to call Bow to wherever Ali is standing. * Press and hold Button A until the SP meter flashes, then release for Bow's "Poison Pollen" which stuns all the enemies in the area.

Status: The Status window displays information on your progress. At the top is the Current Rank, Hit Points (H.P.), Spell Points (S.P.), and the number of enemies defeated. As you defeat enemies your rank increases, but the count has a second purpose-revealed at the end of your adventure... At the bottom of the window Spirit Gems and Special Items are shown. The number of Spirit Gems Ali has in his possession determines the strength of that spirit's magic. Special items are used automatically during the adventure: * The Sunburst Pendant gives Ali the ability to regain Hit Points when he is standing in a sunlit area. * The Key of Time and Space allows Ali to use Warp Doors (transporting him from one place to another). * The Psychoring gives Ali the ability to regain Spell Points (if he is not using a Spirit at the time). * The Sun's Charm allows Ali to regain H.P. and S.P. quickly when he is standing in a sunlit area. Map: The map is used throughout your adventures to check on your current location (shown on the map as an orange figurine), and the place you should be making for next (shown as a white flag). Naturally, you can go anywhere in Oasis you want to, but remember that until you've reached the position indicated by the flag and fulfilled that part of your quest, you won't be able to advance to the next section of your adventure. Beyond Oasis Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Minor Hints: * Prince Ali starts the game with 200 Hit Points and a skill level of 1. Ali can increase his H.P. and power by collecting Level Up Hearts or by receiving a certain number of experience points. * Each time Ali is injured his H.P. decrease, and when they reach zero, the adventure begins from wherever you last saved it. * Food restores Hit Points, so when Ali's Life Force gets low, start chowing. * The creatures threatening Oasis have specific orders to stop you from finishing your quest. You, on the other hand, have more to think about than a few ugly monsters with sticks and spears-all Oasis is depending on you to defeat the one who wears the silver armlet. You may find that the outcome of the struggle is quite different when you concentrate on your goal and not the red herrings. Check out the results at the end of the adventure! * On the other hand, you may be stymied at one point or another by locked doors or barred passages. When you're at a loss for what to do next, try clearing the area of monsters (you know how that works) and the answer may very well appear in front of you. * Remember to use Dytto's Healing spell whenever you have the chance (to save your food supply for more desperate times). Major Hints: Warning! The following section may contain major spoilers that could lessen your enjoyment of the game. Read them only as a last resort! Royal Village Start by jumping out of the boat and then go north, up one screen. Talk to all the villagers and then go north to battle the powerful Ogre. After you defeat the Ogre and his minions, you will automatically appear in your teacher's house. He will inform you that the group who attacked you may have attacked your family. At this point you should check your map to see the position of the Flag One. Flag One is placed at the Royal Castle. The Royal Castle is to the west of the Royal Village (the village you start the game from). Conquering Flag 1 Royal Kingdom: Exit your teacher's house and go west into another screen, where you will appear on a stone bridge. Continue west to another bright grassy screen. Go west through this area and you'll come to a wall. Walk down alongside the wall and find the entrance to the Royal Kingdom. Enter the Royal Kingdom and then walk up the steps with a mermaid statue on either side to enter the castle. Inside the Castle Inside the castle, walk through the doorway on the right side of the waterfall. Now go down and walk left across the catwalk. Go up and walk through the doorway to enter the Throne Room. Walk down near the guard and then walk up the steps to talk to your father (the King) and the princess (your sister). Your father will give you a key that will unlock the Water Shrine. Your sister will tell you to read the three books in the back room located in the upper-right of the throne room. After receiving the Water Shrine Key and reading the three books, stand between the two tall statues in front of the water flow and walk south to exit the Throne Room. You'll appear outside on the rooftop. At this point you should check your map to see the position of the Flag 2. Jump off and travel to the far east (Flag 2). Conquering Flag 2 Water Shrine: How to get Dytto-the water spirit: Exit the Royal Kingdom going east. Follow the brown path eastward to another bright grassy screen. Continue eastward and cross the stone bridge that leads to the Royal village screen. Walk past your teacher's house and enter the area east of the Royal village. Go to the far right and up across the wooden steps. Now walk right into another screen and continue right until you see four hedgehogs at a campfire. Walk down the wooden steps and then go south to another pair of wooden steps. Go up the steps and then go westward to the Water Shrine. Defeat the Guard at the Water Shrine and then enter the shrine. Inside the Water Shrine You'll begin in a room with two female statues submerged in water. Open the wooden door at the north portion of the first room with the gold key in the chest (in the center of the room). Walk through the wooden door and you'll appear in the second room with two guards. Defeat the guards and the blocked doorway at the north portion of the room will open. Walk through the doorway and you'll appear in the 3rd room. Walk up the steps in the north portion of the room and get the gold key to the wooden door from the Ogre. Defeat the Ogre to receive the gold key. Walk through the wooden door and you'll appear in the 4th room. The 4th room has a stream of water flowing south and is full of blue and pink plops (plops of goo). One of the pink plops has the gold key to the wooden door at the north portion of the room. After you receive the gold key from the pink plop, walk through the door and you'll appear in the 5th room. In the 5th room, quickly jump upward to the door at the north portion of the room. If you time your jumps correctly, the huge flow of water going south will not push you back through the doorway at the south portion of the room (tricky, but possible). Once you go through the north door, you'll appear in the 6th room with the boss of the Water Shrine... Water Shrine Boss: Crab Nabber * Weapon: She shoots water bubbles from her mouth when her mouth opens and turns red. The bubbles can be destroyed with your sword. * Movement: Jumps up and tries to land on you. * Environment: You're battling in the Crab Nabber Chamber: a blue room without an exit until you defeat the Nabber. * How to defeat: You must first attack and destroy her large single claw. Once the claw explodes, attack the Crab Nabber's body from the front or back. Only attack the Nabber when her mouth is open and red. After defeating the Crab Nabber, exit the chamber through the north door (only door in the chamber at this point). You'll now appear standing in front of the blue door. Now is the time to use the power of the gold armlet. Walk through the doorway and you'll enter the chamber of Dytto-the Water Spirit. Walk up to the rotating blue cube and press B to awaken Dytto. Now watch the instructions on how to activate Dytto's spells. Conquering Flag 3 Royal Kingdom with Dytto: Once you have Dytto, you will automatically appear outside at the entrance of the Water Shrine. First check your map to see where the next flag is located. Now go back to the Castle and talk to the King, your father. In order to get back to the castle, walk down to the grass and then go left. Jump off the edge and then walk left into another screen. Now go up and travel west to the Royal village. Go west through the Royal village to another screen. Continue west to another bright grassy screen. Go west until you come to a wall. Walk down alongside the wall and find the entrance to the Royal Kingdom. Enter the Royal Kingdom and then walk up the steps between the mermaid statues to enter the castle. Inside the castle, walk through the door on the right side of the waterfall. Now go down and walk left across the catwalk. Go up and walk through the doorway to enter the Throne Room. Walk down near the guard and then walk up the steps to talk to your father (the King) and the princess (your sister). Your father informs you about a shrine behind the East Waterfall. Now exit the castle by standing between the two tall statues in front of the water flow and walk south. You'll appear outside on the rooftop. At this point you should check your map to see the position of the Flag 4. Jump off and prepare to travel to Flag Four. Beyond Oasis Hints and Tips Too Use Up/Down to scroll text Conquering Flag 4 Waterfall Shrine: How to get Efreet-the Fire Spirit: Exit the Royal Kingdom going east. Follow the brown path eastward to another bright grassy screen. Continue east until you reach a stone bridge. Do not cross the 1st stone bridge. Instead, go as far north as possible and then go east onto a screen with a 2nd stone bridge. Jump into the water north of the bridge and waddle up to the large waterfall. Summon Dytto the Water Spirit and use her water bubble to create an opening in the waterfall. Enter the Waterfall Cave and walk north, pass the bats and dying fish, until you reach the Black Plops in the 2nd area. Battle your way north up the right side of the screen to a 3rd area. In this area, continue up until you reach a flame thrower. Behind the flame thrower there is a chest with the gold key to unlock the wooden door on the upper-left of this screen. Once you have the gold key, walk to the other side of the flame thrower and then jump down to the left. Go left and then up past two flame throwers to reach the wooden door. Go through the wooden door and you'll appear in the 4th area with a circular block to your right. Walk forward and an Ogre will fall from the ceiling. Defeat the Ogre to receive the gold key to the wooden door in the upper-left corner. The only problem is the fire in front of the wooden door. How to put out the fire in front of the wooden door in the 4th area: Stand behind the circular block and push it up (North) onto the green switch (watch out for the flame thrower). This will cause the small geyser to erupt. Now summon the water spirit, Dytto, from the geyser. Use Dytto's water bubble to put out the fire. Walk through the door and you'll appear in a room with a pool of black water. Black Pool Room (5th Area) The majority of the room is covered by black water. To get out of the room, go to the upper-left corner near the door. There are two green switches on the ground that activate the door. Press the switch on the left and a circular block will drop from the ceiling (to your right). Push the block on top of the green switch on the right. This will keep the door open. Walk through the door and prepare to battle the Waterfall Shrine boss... Waterfall Shrine Boss: Black Skull of Akebulan (6th Area) * Weapon: Shoots living fire streams from its mouth. After the Black Skull's health meter goes down past the half-way mark, his skeleton hands will come up from the Black pool and try to slap the blackness on you. * Movement: Emerges from the Black pool, exhales its fire breath and then submerges in the Black pool. (The Black Skull repeats this until it's destroyed.) * Environment: You're battling in a room full of black water. * How to defeat: Wait for the Black Skull to merge from the Black pool and then strike it on any side of its head. Dodge the living fire streams and make sure the skull keeps its hands to itself. Once you defeat the Black Skull of Akebulan, go through the north doorway to the seventh room. In this room, stand in front of the blue door and use the gold armlet. Walk through the doorway and you'll enter the chamber of Efreet-the Fire Spirit. Walk up to the rotating red cube and press B to awaken Efreet. Now watch the instructions on how to activate Efreet's spells. Conquering Flag 5 Royal Kingdom: Once you have Efreet, you will automatically appear outside at the entrance of the Waterfall Shrine. First check your map to see where the next flag is located (Castle). Now go back to the Castle and talk to the King, your father. In order to get back to the castle, walk out of the water by using the rocking embankment to the right. Now walk south and use the stone bridge to go west onto another screen. On this screen, go south and then west whenever possible (keep pressing left on the D-pad on the left side of the screen) to another grassy screen area. Go west through this area until you reach the wall of the Royal Kingdom. Walk down alongside the wall and find the entrance to the Royal Kingdom. Enter the Royal Kingdom and then walk up the steps with a mermaid statue on either side to enter the castle. Inside the castle, walk through the door on the right side of the waterfall. Now go down and walk left across the catwalk. Go up and walk through the doorway to enter the Throne Room. Walk down near the guard and then walk up the steps to talk to your father (the King) and the princess (your sister). Your father will tell you... "Ali, the soldiers reported that some strange groups are camped out in the field northeast of the Water Shrine. You must investigate the area before they hurt the villagers." After talking to your father, stand between the two tall statues in front of the water flow and walk south to exit the Throne Room. You'll appear outside on the rooftop. Jump off and prepare for to travel to Flag Six. Conquering Flag 6 Northeast Campsite: Exit the Royal Kingdom going east. Follow the brown path eastward to another bright grassy screen. Continue eastward and cross the stone bridge that leads to the Royal village. Walk past your teacher's house and enter the area east of the Royal village. Go to the far right and up the wooden steps. Now walk right into another screen and continue right until you see four hedgehogs at a campfire. Walk down the wooden steps and then go right and up to the blue crystal on the stone bridge. To cross the stone bridge, you must use Efreet to remove the blue crystal. Summon Efreet from the campfire and then stand next to the blue crystal. Efreet will punch the crystal until it explodes (it takes Efreet a while to get the hint). Now cross the stone bridge into another screen and then go east until you reach a small fire in front of stone steps. To go up the stone steps, you must use Dytto to remove the fire. Summon Dytto from the dirty pool of water to the west. Walk back to the fire and use Dytto's water bubble to extinguish the fire. Go up the steps and then up another set of steps. Go right and then down a set of steps. Go right and then up near a cluster of trees. Now go west to a set of steps. Go up the steps and you'll enter the courtyard of the enemy campsite. Northeast Campsite Courtyard Once you enter the Northeast Campsite Courtyard, go up, right, and then go down. Now go up two sets of stairs on your right. Go all the way up and then down a set of stairs to your left. At the end of the staircase, there is a chest with a green key (used in the 1st room of the Campsite). Go back up the staircase, go left and down a set of stairs. Follow the pathway downward and then go up a set of stairs that lead to a locked door. Defeat the guards in front of the door and one of them will drop the gold key that unlocks the wooden door. Walk through the door and you'll enter the Northeast Campsite Rooms. 1st Room of the Northeast Campsite The first room you enter has a steel door in the upper-left corner and a set of bars in the upper-right corner (only Bow can break through the bars). There is also two Gun Towers in the center of the room. Destroy the gun towers and then go through the green steel door (you need the green key from the Courtyard). You'll appear in the second room. 2nd Room Directly to your right, there is a huge boulder, a green switch and a geyser. Stand behind the boulder and push it onto the green switch to open the blocked doorway. Walk through the doorway and you'll enter the third room of the Northeast Campsite. 3rd Room Once you appear in this room, there are two sets of stairs in front of you. One is a little to the left and another a little to the right. Both sets of stairs lead to a chest (a steel bow). There's also a lever switch to the left on the floor. Defeat all the enemies in the room and open the blocked doorway in the upper-right corner. Unblock the doorway by shooting the lever with a steel bow (from the chest up the stairs). Go through the doorway to continue to the fourth room. 4th Room You start the fourth room with three moving wall spears in front of you. Just up and ahead of the spears there's a lever that activates or deactivates all three moving wall spears. Shoot the lever with a steel bow to deactivate them. Walk up, right and then down the stairs. Walk past the snakes and go right into another section of the fourth room. In this section of the fourth room, you will appear to the left of two rows of rolling boulders (both rolling south to north). The row to the far right is moving fast. The row closest to you is rolling slow, but the number of boulders is doubled. Make your way up through the first row and then cut across to the right at the top. Continue right and then go down the wide staircase. Defeat the Giant Knight and his companions and the text will read... "He captured the enemy base and sneaked onto a ship staying in the harbor." Now you will automatically appear in the lower deck of the ship. Really check the map to see if the ship has a flag or not. Conquering Flag 7 The Ship: Lower Deck Go up until you see two levers. Walk to the left side of the top lever (the one closest to the north wall) and hit it to the right. Only hit the top lever to the right. The bottom lever should point in the left direction. If the levers are positioned correctly (top going right, bottom going left), the blocked doorway at the southern portion of the lower deck will be open. Walk through the doorway to go up on the outside deck. Outside Deck Go up and walk up the stairs. Continue up (south) and jump down. Go up another set of stairs and then jump down. Walk up and you will be confronted by Silver Armlet. Silver Armlet will say... "I am Silver Armlet. You cannot stop me, and you will be sorry you tried! Gold Armlet, you are brave to come here. But unfortunately, I have no time." Silver Armlet will be escorted off the ship by one of his Red Gargoyles. You will then be left to battle two Gargoyles (a purple one and a red one). To defeat the Gargoyles, try to wait for them to swoop down. The best attack against them is the flash kick. The only weapon they have is their fireball breath. Once you defeat them, you will automatically appear in a small boat and head to the shore. And the text will read... "Ali defeated the Gargoyles. He headed his boat in the direction where Silver Armlet disappeared." Conquering Flag 8 Beach Cave of Mt. Ptah: Entrance to Beach Cave: From the shoreline, go up two sets of stairs and then go into the cave on the left. Main Area Go up the stairs and stand in front of the three levers (on the ground). If the three levers are positioned correctly, a secret room will appear in the wall. Position the left lever to the left; the middle lever should point to the right and the right lever should point to the right. Once you go inside the secret room and come back out, go left into another screen of the Main Area. Once on the second screen, go down, push the boulder out of your way and then go up the stairs on the left. Now go left to a green switch (not the switch in the hole). Step on the switch and the geyser in front of the stairs will stop for approximately 2 seconds, giving you time to jump up the stairs to retrieve the green key in the chest. Drop down and then go to the north opening of this portion of the Main Area (defeat the enemies in the room first). You will now appear in the 1st area to the North. 1st Area to the North In this area the sky is falling. To stop the bombardment from the sky, take the stairs down into the water and hit the green switch. Next to the green switch there's a chest with a gold key inside. Get the gold key, walk back up the stairs and go through the green steel door to enter the 2nd area (need green key from the Main Area). 2nd Area Just walk up to the wooden door and enter the 3rd Area. The green key for the green steel door in the 1st area to the west is down in the water, left of the wooden door. 3rd Area In this area there are two sets of stairs that lead up to a chest. Inside the chest is the red key (opens the red steel door in the 6th area to the west ). There's also a blue steel door that can only be opened with the blue key from the 6th area to the West. Once you have the Red Key, exit the 3rd area the way you came in and then jump to the chests in water. In one of the chests you'll find a green key (use in the 1st Area to the west). Allow the stream to take you back to the green switch in the water. Step on the green switch to stop the bombardment. Now go up the stairs, turn right and then down to enter the Main Area. Main Area with the Red Key Walk up to the blue crystal in the Main Area and destroy it with a bomb or have Efreet destroy it. You can summon Efreet with a bomb or the torches in the 3rd area to the north. The blue crystal can only be destroyed by fire. Once the crystal has exploded, go through the opening and you will appear in the 1st Area to the West. 1st Area to the West Walk past the stairs and defeat the Gargoyle in front of the green steel door to the far left of the room. Once the gargoyle is defeated, a block will drop down onto the green switch. This will cause the geyser to stop. Now go up the stairs and get the gold key out of the chest. To open the green steel door in this room, you need the green key from the chest in the 2nd area to the north (in the water). Go through the green door and you'll enter the 2nd area to the West. 2nd Area to the West Go up the stairs and walk to the far left, defeating all the zombies on the way. Once you defeat all the zombies in the room, go back down the stairs and hit the lever to stop the boulders from falling. If zombies are still walking around they will hit the green switch and activate the boulders. So make sure they're all dead. Well anyway, after you stop the boulders from falling, go up the stairs to enter the 3rd Area. 3rd Area The 3rd area has an unlit campfire. Um, should we play with fire? Go to the right and enter the 4th area. 4th Area On this screen there's a waterfall and a wooden door. If you have a gold key you can continue through the door. If not go back to the 1st area and open the chests. Continue through the door and you'll appear in the 5th area. 5th Area Defeat the Knights and the Ogre to make the staircase appear on the left side of the screen. Go up the stairs and you'll appear in the 6th area. 6th Area Go up to the red steel door and it will allow you to walk through if you have the red key (found in the 3rd area). Go through the door and you'll appear in the 7th area. 7th Area Go up the stairs and then jump off to the left onto the green switch. The green switch drops three chest onto the platform you just jumped from. (Now if only you would have thrown a bomb first!) Once you've jumped down, light the unlit torch to the right of the blocked doorway and the entrance will open. Walk through the doorway and prepare yourself to battle the Granite Grantee... Granite Grantee: * Weapon: Granite Grantee has the power to control any solid form of earth. The Grantee will try to crush you by commanding the ceiling to collapse on you. You can guess where the dirt will fall by watching for the multiple rock shadows on the ground. * Movement: The Grantee jumps up and down to command the ceiling. He also transforms himself into a huge boulder and bounces around the room. * Environment: You're in a room with a blocked doorway in the upper-right corner. The doorway will not be blocked after you defeat the Rocklord, Granite Grantee. * How to defeat: Attack the Grantee only when his arms are folded out and he's on the ground. He will receive a hit on any portion of his body. Don't make the mistake of chasing him when he transforms into a huge boulder. Try to dodge him. Once you defeat the Granite Grantee, pick up the necklace he leaves behind. Now go through the doorway in the upper-right corner, or you can venture back, on your own, to the 3rd area to the North and open the blue steel door (if you can find the blue key in the 6th area to the west). Before you leave the cave the text will read... "He defeated the monsters in the cave and picked up a necklace which had a mysterious radiance." Once you exit the Far East Shore Cave of Mt. Ptah, you'll appear outside in front of a set of stairs. Go down the stairs and then go to the far west, through the puddles of water, until you reach another set of stairs. Go up the stairs and then go left into another screen. You'll appear outside the Mountainside Fortress. Go left and walk up two sets of stairs. Then go right and up another set of stairs that will take you inside the Mountainside Fortress. Beyond Oasis More Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Major Hints: Warning! The following section may contain major spoilers that could lessen your enjoyment of the game. Read them only as a last resort! Conquering Flag 9 Mountainside Fortress: 1st Room Once inside the Fortress you will immediately be ambushed by about 5 Knights. Defeat the Knights and then open the chest in the upper-right corner of the room. Inside the chest there's a gold key. Open the wooden door on the left side to enter the 2nd room. (Inside the door on the right there's another gold key and some items.) 2nd Room Go up, left (past the green switch), and then down into the 3rd room. 3rd Room This room has four rolling spikes and two doors in it. There's a wooden door to the upper-left that can be opened with the gold key in the chest at the bottom of the room. There's also a green steel door to the upper-right that can be opened with the green key from the 4th room. Go through the wooden door with the gold key and enter the 4th Room. 4th Room Inside this room there are two chests and a green steel door at the north wall. One of the chests has a green key and the other has a gold key. Go through the green steel door in the room and you will appear in the 5th room. 5th Room Go to the right and then go down past a wall spear. You'll enter the 6th room, a Snake and Rolling Spike room. 6th Room: Snake and Rolling Spikes In the upper-right corner of this 6th room, there's a wooden door that leads to a room with four chests in it. In two of the chests you'll find a blue key and a gold key. After you have the keys, go back to the 5th room. Go up, left and then down into the 7th room. 7th Room When you first appear in the 7th room, there's an Ogre standing in front of a chest in the bottom-left corner. After you walk further into the room, more enemies come from the upper-right corner. Go through the blue steel door and enter the 8th room. You can only go through the door if you have the blue key from the 6th room. 8th Room Bombs will first fall from the ceiling. Once the bombs explode, walk through the wooden door at the north wall, if you have the gold key from the 6th room. You'll now appear in the 9th room. 9th Room The 9th room is a two-screen corridor. The first screen has two Knights. Go down to the next screen and it has two Knights plus wall spears, so be careful. Continue down past the wall spears and you'll appear outside the Mountainside Fortress. Walk down the stairs and then jump down from the left side to a doorway. This is the Wizard Room. Wizard Room Defeat all the wizards and a chest will drop from the ceiling. Inside the chest is the red key that opens the red steel door. In the wizard room, there's a blue steel door. You can open the door if you have a blue key. The only way to get an extra blue key is to enter the green door in the 3rd room. Use the green key from the 4th room to get into the green door in the 3rd room. Once you have the red key, exit the Wizard room the way you came in and then jump off the ledge to the right. Go right and then go up two sets of stairs. The stairs lead to the red steel door. Enter the red steel door and prepare to battle two red gargoyles. Two Red Gargoyles: The Gargoyles start off sitting on either side of the blocked doorway. Their green while they're stationary, but when they start flying they change to a fiery red. Defeat the gargoyles and the blocked doorway will open. Enter the doorway and text will read... "He caught a faint conversation from downstairs.....'is it to the north?' 'Yes, in the wall fortress. It is the key to go to the west crater to see Shade.'" After the text, you'll appear in a corridor with a few Knights. Defeat the enemies in this corridor and the text will read. "He left for the Wall Fortress to continue after Silver Armlet." Now make your way to the right side of the corridor and go down to the outside of the Mountainside Fortress. You will appear outside on green grass. Go right and then up alongside the Mountainside Fortress to another screen. Conquering Flag 10 Wall Fortress: How to get the Warp Device: This area is the path to the Wall Fortress. The environment looks sandy like a desert. Go to the right and walk up the stairs. Continue up and walk up another set of stairs. Now go to the left and jump down. Go up and walk up two sets of stairs. Continue up until you see two sets of stairs to your right. Walk down both sets and then go right, into another area of the path. Go to the far right and then go up three sets of stairs. Go to the far left and jump down. Go up the stairs and continue up to another area of the path. Go up the stairs and then go left to another set of stairs. Go up the stairs and then go left again to another set of stairs. Go up the stairs and then go left until you reach a set of stairs. These stairs lead to the top of the Fortress Wall. Climb up the stairs and you'll appear at the top of the Wall. Top of the Wall Fortress The first screen on top of the Wall has a set of stairs leading to two holes (of no importance). Go to the right and you'll enter the 2nd screen on top of the Wall 2nd Screen Go to the right and a gate will fall behind you, blocking you off from the left. Continue to the right against the wind and pass by the flame throwers. Knights are going to try and stop you. In order to pass by the flame throwers safely, wait for a group of knights, defeat them and quickly run to the right past the flames. The flame throwers will stop momentarily after you defeat a group of knights. Once you're past the flame throwers, step on the green switch to open the gate to your right. Go to the right and defeat the enemies to open another gate to your right. Continue right, once the gate is down, and dodge the boulders. Go up the stairs and defeat the Ogres. Go to the right until you reach a green switch. Step on the switch to open a section of the gate. Go through the opening and then go to the right onto the 3rd screen on top of the Wall Fortress. 3rd Screen Go to the far right against the wind until you reach a gate. Now go back to the left and destroy all the gun towers. Destroying the gun towers will trigger the gate to open. After the gate is open, go to the right and down the stairs. Go to the right and light all the unlit campfires to open the gate to the right. Once they're all lit, jump over the spikes and continue to the right until you reach another set of spikes. The spikes will begin to close in on you. Defeat all the critters that the gargoyles drop from the sky and then the spikes will move outward. Go to the right and go up the stairs near the two green switches. Activate both switches by using one of the Ogres or by throwing a bomb at one of the switches and then stepping on the other. When both switches are activated, the gate blocking the teleporter will open. Step into the blue circle on the ground and you will teleport to the right side of the screen. Run to the right and you will meet Silver Armlet again... "You've caught up with me much earlier than I expected. Well, let me reward you. Somewhere in this castle, there is a device which can move you through a warp of time and space." "I don't need it, but you will. Show me your power, Gold Armlet. You must defeat my minions to gain access to the Warp Device!" Silver Armlet will then drop you down into the Wall Fortress. You will then have to battle the Turtle Dragon, Rebekkamaun. Boss: Rebekkamaun the Turtle Dragon * Weapon: Rebekkamaun will spit rocks out of his mouth and also try to suck you into his mouth. * Movement: The Turtle Dragon basically has one movement. He moves toward the left, trying to devour your soul. * Environment: You're battling inside the Wall Fortress. The room Rebekkamaun has made its lair has a blue floor and statues in the wall. * How to defeat: Wait for Rebekkamaun's hideous tongue to come out and then strike it as many times as possible before it retreats back into her mouth. Oh yeah, don't forget to run to the left. Once Rebekkamaun is defeated, go through the opening to the left and get the Warp device out of the chest. Use the device by shooting your armlet at the blue crack in the floor (directly below the chest). This will open a spiral warp hole in the floor. Walk over it and you will warp to the 1st screen of the Wall Fortress. Go down the stairs and the text will read... "He defeated the monsters in the fortress and got the Warp Device." Continue down the stairs and then go to the far left to a set of stairs. Go down the stairs and then go right until you see a large portion of the Wall Fortress hidden in the rock. Stand on the left side of the hidden portion of the fortress, go down and then jump down to the left. If you land near the trickle of water coming from the rocks, you jumped down too far to the right. The section of land you jump down to has a blue crack in the ground. Use the Warp Device on the crack to form a warp hole. Walk over the warp hole and you will teleport to the far left of this area. Now go to the left and you will appear in another area. This is the path to the Volcano. Conquering Flag 11 Volcanic Crater: How to get Shade- the shadow spirit: Go left and then up two sets of stairs. Go left and then up a set of stairs. Go left and then down onto a mountainside area. Watch out because now you can fall off the cliffs of the mountainside. Try your best not to fall off into the purple sky while battling. Continue downward, go the far left and then up to a set of stairs, on the right. Remember you're on a volcano, so spontaneous bombardments of lava rocks are not unusual. Now go down the stairs, go right and then up into the entrance of the Volcano. Inside the Volcano 1st Area From the entrance, go left and then down two sets of stairs. Go to the right, defeat the wizard in the center of the small lava pit and he'll drop the gold key that opens the wooden door at the south wall. 2nd Area Once you walk through the door, jump down to the left twice. After the second jump, walk down to the chest and collect the green key for the green steel door. Stand where the chest was located and jump down. You'll land in a pit with a few enemies. Defeat all the enemies and a blue teleporter will appear. Walk over the teleport and you will appear back in the 1st Area in the spot where the Wizard had the gold key. Return of the 1st Area Go through the south doorway again and you'll appear back in the 2nd Area. Return of the 2nd Area Instead of jumping down to the left, walk between the rocks and jump down (not to the right, but south). You'll land in front of a green steel door. If you have the green key, walk through the doorway and enter the 3rd Area. 3rd Area Walk to the left and defeat all of the Knights. If the Knights and the living fire are not defeated, you'll have a hard time getting past the ground spikes to the far left. Defeating the enemies opens a path through the ground spikes and activates a blue teleporter to the right, near the entrance. Go back to the right and walk over the teleporter. You'll appear on the far right on a ledge with a chest. Inside the chest is the red key you need enter Deberahrah's Lair. Now teleport back, go through the ground spike path and then up the stairs into the 4th area. 4th Area First go to the left and step on the green switch to activate the platform on the left. Now go up and jump onto the moving platform (moves north to south). From this platform, jump to the right onto the 2nd moving platform (moves west to east). It would be wise to defeat the wizards near you, because they may interrupt your jump. From the second platform, jump to the south onto a portion of stationary land. Now wait for a third platform (moves north to south) and jump onto it. Again it would be wise to defeat the wizards, because they may interrupt your jump. From the third platform, jump to the 4th platform (moves west to east) in the south portion of this area. Wait for the fourth platform to move to the east and then jump onto the stationary land. Go to the right and walk through the red steel door, if you have the red key (in the 3rd Area). Once you walk through the door, you will appear in the center of the volcano and face to face with the lava dragon, Deberahrah. Boss: Deberahrah the Lavewish Dragon * Weapon: She blows fireballs about twice and then a stream of fire. * Movement: Deberahrah has secured herself to the base of the volcano. The only portion of her that will move is her head and neck. * Environment: You're battling in the center of the volcano. Deberahrah is directly in the center of her Lair. You're positioned on a ledge that circles her head. * How to defeat: Defeat the Lavewish Queen by smacking her on the chin every time she lowers her head to kiss you. Once you defeat Deberahrah, a moving platform will appear in the center of the room (moves north to south). Jump on the platform and cross the gap in the center of the lair. On the other side there's a blue door. Stand in front of the blue door and use the gold armlet. Walk through the doorway and you'll enter the chamber of Shade-the shadow Spirit. Walk up to the rotating black cube and press B to awaken Shade. Shade will tell you... "I appear from the void to become your shadow. My name is Shade. I pledge my allegiance to you, Gold Armlet. You may summon me from your own reflection." Now watch the instructions on how to activate Shade's spells. Before you leave the Shade chamber the text will read... "He defeated the old dragon in the crater and found Shade, a spirit of shadow in the Shrine of Darkness." Escaping the Volcano Crater After you have Shade, you will automatically appear where the blue door was located. Ride the platform across the gap and then exit Deberahrah's chamber at the south portion. Now use Shade to grab the two grappling posts and exit the 4th area. Now you'll appear in the 3rd area on a ledge across from a grappling post. Drop down, go right and then go up through the exit. You'll now appear in the 2nd area. Walk forward and drop down. Use the blue teleporter and you will teleport to the 1st area. Walk through the entrance in the north wall and you'll appear back in the 2nd area, but at the top ledge. Jump down to the left and use the grappling post on the left side. Continue to the left and you'll appear in a room full of geysers. Jump down to the Shade crystal and exit through the small opening. You need to crouch to make yourself fit through the small opening. On this side of the Volcano, the mountain rocks are purple. On the Prince side of the Volcano Go to the far left, jumping over the gaps and collapsing bridges until you reach a set of stairs that lead to the Old Man. Summon Shade and he will catch you if you fall off the platforms. Some of the jumps you have to make may seem impossible, but rest assured that all leaps and jumps are possible with speed, along with accuracy. When you reach the Old Man he will tell you... "Welcome, Prince. Yes, I know everything. This is yours. That ring is a great help to you. The necklace you found belongs to Princess Gwyn, your elder sister." "As you know, she's been missing for over ten years. This may mean she is still alive. Now go back to the castle. Silver Armlet wants something from inside it, and you must hurry to protect your family." Once the Old Man is finished gabbing, go down the stairs and use the blue crack in the ground to create a warp hole. The warp hole will teleport you to the beach west of the Royal Kingdom.

The electrical goo, however, is out to light up your life. * Environment: You're battling in the Mystic Darkness room that is basically a huge gap framed by a catwalk. The gap is filled with moving platforms. Use the moving platforms to approach ? and attack him. * How to defeat: Defeat ? by using the moving platforms to approach him. Once you're close enough, strike him with the strongest sword you have (the weaker the sword, the longer it takes, the more you fall). You'll know ? is defeated when it falls in the pit of Mystic Darkness. Once ? is defeated, jump back to the catwalk and walk through the opening in the south wall.

Now go back around to green steel door in the moving platform room. 2nd Castle Corridors behind the green steel door Go through the green steel door and you will appear in a Master Wizard room. After you defeat the Master Wizards, an opening will appear in the south wall. Walk through the opening and you will appear in a room with three flame throwers, three green switches, and two blocks. Push each block onto a green switch and then stand on the switch in the middle. This will cause a Shade Crystal to appear. What you have to do next is....Ha Ha Ha.....I will never tell. Once you successfully pass through the Shade Crystal room, you will appear in a room with rolling spikes and two green switches. Use Shade's dopplegangler to press both switches at the same time. This will cause two chests to fall from the ceiling. Inside one of the chests you will find a red key. The key opens the red steel door in the south-blowing wind room. Once you have the key, go up and jump down near two doors. Go through the door on the right and then travel to the blue steel door. 3rd Castle Corridors behind the blue steel door Go through the blue steel door, go right and you will appear near three blue crystals. Destroy the blue crystal with fire. Now go up until you reach a group of floor spikes. You need Shade to perform his dopplegangler in order to hit the green switch on the other side of the ground spikes. The green switch will form a path through the ground spikes. Go up through the path and then defeat the Spirit Sucker. Go left and you will enter another screen. Go left to a gap and use Shade to get you across by grabbing the grappling hook. Continue left to another screen and then go down to ledge. Once you drop down there's no going back. Note: If you would like to venture throughout the Allat Island and find secrets, go back to where you started off in Agito's Neighborhood and there will be a blue crack there. Use it to Warp. You will teleport near the Non-Entity Cave. THE FINALE: NO TURNING BACK Once you jump and land on the grass, go down near a plant and a Spirit Sucker guarding a gate. Summon Bow, defeat the Spirit Sucker and then break down the gate. Go through the gateway and then go right to a set of stairs being blocked by fire and a blue crystal. Destroy the blue crystal or extinguish the fire and then go up the stairs (preferably the fire). You will then enter a room with south-blowing wind. At the north portion of this area there's a green switch that ends the bombardment of enemies. The best way to get to the switch is by using Shade's dopplegangler trick. Once the switch is pressed, go through the red steel door with the red key and you will appear in the Silver Armlet's room of magic. If you do not have the red key, go back to the moving platform room and enter the green steel door. Once you enter the room Silver Armlet will say... "I have been waiting for you. It's been an interesting game... but now it's time to finish it. You cannot stop the revival of the Creator of the Silver Armlet, my master, Agito!" Silver Armlet will then unleash the gray void minions of the universe (regular enemies, just gray). Defeat the minions and the Silver Armlet will say... "Well done. I must reward you for your persistence, Gold Armlet! I reward you with your death!" The Minion of Chaos: * Weapon: The Silver Armlet has the power to call upon minions and send itself teleporting around the room. Watch out for the Silver Armlet Backhand dance. * Movement: The Silver Armlet dodges your punches by teleporting to different points of the room, fading in and out of existence. * Environment: You're battling in a room that has a green floor and a steel door in the north wall. * How to defeat: Hit the Silver Armlet when it's in the process of calling another minion. This is when the Silver Armlet is most vulnerable. Other than that, dodge and wait for an opening to strike. Once the Silver Armlet is defeated and it will say... "You...won. I misjudged your superior...abilities. But...you will not defeat Agito. He has returned to resume his throne!" Walk through the doorway in the north wall and prepare to battle Agito, Creator of the Silver Armlet. The room will start off dark and then the Silver Armlet will reveal as the horn of Agito, shedding light on the once dark and damp room. Creator of the Silver Armlet: * Weapon: Agito must be defeated before he regains full strength. At first he is so weak he can't lift his arm and legs that are submerged in the swamp. So he's easy prey. His only weapons are his tentacles and his fiery breath. His tentacles will shoot energy spheres at you and give birth to small Agito babies. If the battle goes somewhat long Agito will build up enough bad breath to burn down the heavens. And if the battle is truly long and the mood is right, Agito will stand up, shred his skin, transform into all the Street Fighters, Robotech type armor will attach to all 16 forms of Agito and he will then commence to beating you up badly. He fires proton beams from his horn and launches Zombie fire from his nostrils. * Movement: Agito is weak and submerged in the swamp. He is only able to move his head and his tentacles. His tentacles are positioned on the far right and far left of his Swampy Shrine. * Environment: You're battling in a Agito's Swampy Shrine. Skeletons of those who came before line the ground. The castle walls behind to the left and right are the only evidence of humanity. * How to defeat: In order to defeat Agito you must behead him. First attack and destroy Agito's tentacles. This will cause him stick his neck out and leave it wide open for a sword strike. If there are tentacles present, Agito's head will not take any damage. The tentacles reappear after a few seconds and sometimes up to four appear at once. Once Agito is beheaded the Silver Armlet is revealed. The only way to know the ending is to beat the game; not even TOWK knows the ending. Ending Cinema After the Ending Cinema, the Play Results will appear. * Time: How long it took for you beat the game. Time is not real time. * Rank: How many hearts you received. * Max H.P.: How many hit points you gained. * Max S.P.: How many spirit points you gained for the spirits. * Deaths: How many times you died through this save. * Kills: How many enemies you defeated. * Jewels: How many jewels you found for your spirits. * Class: How the game ranks you over all.

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME ENERGY SEEDS HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Bio-Hazard Battle Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text During G-Biowar I (the first global biowar), a powerful new form of retrovirus was released as a deadly reprisal from the enemy. The viruses unleashed biological forces which couldn't be stopped, leaving the planet filled with new and deadly forms of life. Only a few survivors remain in suspended animation in O.P. Odysseus, an orbiting platform circling Avaron. The space station's purpose is to keep the surviving humans alive until Avaron is habitable again. The crew of the Odysseus have been frozen in cryogenic tanks for hundreds of years, and now the onboard computer has awakened them. Computer probes show that conditions on Avaron are hostile but livable. The question is; where can the crew of Odysseus set up a colony? This is the question you have been assigned to answer. You must pilot a Bioship to Avaron, fly over the areas which the probes have labeled least hostile, and check out the conditions there. Find a new home for the last survivors of G-Biowar I!

Highlight your Bioship choice with the D-Button, and press the Start Button to start the game. Once you see the Bioship launched from beneath the O.P. Odysseus, get ready for action! You are the captain of a Bioship: both machine and living being. It is a fantastic creation and more; it's you and your crew's only chance to return to Avaron and find a place safe to live in. You have a choice between four types of ships, as shown on the Ship Selection screen. Bio-Hazard Battle Energy Seeds Use Up/Down to scroll text Energy Seeds: Energy Seeds are scattered by the space station along the flight path your Bioship will take. There are four types of Seeds; Yellow, Orange, Blue and Green. Each Seed changes the Bioship's genetic structure, enabling the ship to generate a different type of weapon. Your Bioship ingests Seeds by passing over them and the energy is transferred to your ship's Power Star. The Power Star, both a shield and a weapon, floats near the Bioship. As a shield, it stops most creatures from hitting your Bioship. More importantly, it uses power from the Energy Seeds to generate weapons. Seed Weapons: Yellow Seed: * Spin Laser: A spinning twin laser beam. * Fire Petal: A stream of white-hot fireballs. Orange Seed: * Plasma Ring: A spinning ring of energy which bounces off of inert matter and detonates upon contact with living matter. * Seeker Laser: Homes in on potential hazards and destroys them. Blue Seed: * Bond: Blue globes of plasma which attach to the creature and explode. * Nova: A multi-directional burst of energy. Green Seed: * Implosion Pods: Create a vacuum upon contact, causing damage. Note: This is the Power Star's default weapon. Bioship Weapon: The front of the Bioship is equipped with a weapon which can be used in two ways. The Bioship normally fires a plasma beam at the same time as the Power Star. But by holding down the fire button for a few moments, the Bioship pulls plasma energy into its power core and then releases it in one massive burst, called the Plasma Wall. This wall of energy is powerful enough to destroy almost anything with one burst. Note: This massive build-up and release of energy prevents the Power Star and the plasma gun from functioning until the Plasma Wall is released. Bio-Hazard Battle Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text From the Com-Tec Bioship Files: * August 19, 2116 pilot briefing excerpt: "The Power Star is a versatile weapon for defense and offense. Practice aiming it in different directions to improve your shielding accuracy and shooting ability." * August 21, 2116 pilot briefing excerpt: "The Energy Seeds are incremental in effect, that is, as the ship ingests the Seeds, the weapon's power increases. Remember that these power increases only happen when you pick up Seeds of the same color. Maximum power capability is reached when the Bioship ingests three Seeds of the same color." * August 27, 2116 pilot briefing excerpt: "The creatures will be drawn towards the Bioship because of the energy it emits. They will probably come at the ship from all sides, so don't allow yourself to be trapped in valleys, dead-ends, or areas you can't maneuver in easily."

The TV has been mysteriously turned on, and a figure begins speaking to them. "I can't give you my name. I'll just tell you that I'm a businessman with a problem. Many of my properties have been targets for a robbery recently. I don't know why they've been hit, but it's become quite a costly situation. I need the two of you, the renowned Bonanza Brothers, to test my security forces. I have already had various items-money, papers, and the like-placed randomly in ten of my establishments. Your job is to retrieve every single item. If you succeed, the reward will make Fort Knox look like pocket change. Good luck..." The figure fades out, and the Bonanzas stare at a screen full of static. "Ya think this guy's on the up an' up?" Mike asks his brother. "I tell ya what," Spike replies, "we're sure gonna find out!" Bonanza Brothers Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text D-Button: * Press left or right to move Mike or Spike through each building. * Press up to make Mike move away from you (toward the back wall), or down to move them toward you. * Press left or right when near a wall, and Mike (or Spike) will press his back against it to hide from enemies. * When Mike (or Spike) is standing in front of a staircase, press left or right and they will climb or descend. Start Button: * Press to start the game. * Press to pause the action; press again to resume play. * Press to keep playing when the word Continue appears. Buttons A, B, and C: * Press Button A or C to jump. * Press Button B to fire your stun gun or open a door. Bonanza Brothers Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text The Bonanzas have been hired to check up on a rich businessman's security teams. Guide Mike and/or Spike through each building, using the D-Button to move about. Jump over obstacles. Watch for rakes or empty cans lying about-the guards aren't very tidy! Grab the flashing objects and carry them out to the exit. Shoot enemies with your stun gun every chance you get. Some foes have shields that your ammo can't penetrate-wait around a corner and time your assault. Don't let them get the drop on you! Screen Signals: Use the screen indicators to keep track of how you're doing. While keeping your attention on the main game screen, take an occasional glance at the Map to see how many treasures remain. The Map also tells you how to get to the exit. The flashing objects on the Map are the items that you have to pick up. Each time you get hit by an enemy attack, you drop all of your items and lose one Player. Be sure to pick up the goods before continuing. The Map also shows you where to find the exit. It is a bit tricky in some buildings, so look closely before taking off. When you arrive at the exit (at the top of the building), the Bonanza Blimp lifts you to safety. So far, so good! Know the Score: You get points for each enemy you wallop. Each piece of evidence you pick up is worth 5,000 points. If you accumulate 200,000 points before the guards wipe out all your Players, you get an extra Player. Any time remaining after you've cleared a stage earns you points as well. Bonanza Brothers Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Some enemy guards carry shields, so be sure to hide until they show their backsides. Attack from the rear! * If an enemy is waiting just on the other side of a door that you want to go through, open it quickly and flatten him like a pancake! * If a guard is standing just at the bottom or top of a staircase, stay on the stairs until he moves. You'll know you've been made when you see the ! mark appear above his head. If you're on the steps, he may not see you. * When faced with several enemies at once, move to the front or back of the area. They don't move as quickly as you, and this is a good way to avoid their attacks! * There is usually more than one way to get around the area you're playing. If one way is crowded with enemies, try another route. It may be free of guards! * The puppies may be cute, but their bite is much worse than their bark. Zap them and get out of there! * When enemies are against the door, open it to smash them against the wall. * Wait until enemies (especially the policemen) are looking away, then open the door and shoot at them. * You can shoot people as they are getting up! * The enemies with shields can only be hit from behind. * Stairwells can be used to hide, as long as only your head is showing! * If you are standing against a wall, and an enemy is coming towards you, you can walk down and push them! Round 1: Mansion You can walk past the sleeping guy and the guy looking out the window. Jump over the can, or you will fall in. Jump over the rake, or you will get hit in the face with the handle of the rake. Hit the big guy four times to get him down. Once he's down, run past him before he can get up. Jump on the wire at the end to get to the exit. Round 2: Casino On the first floor, jump when the guard isn't looking, then hide behind the sign to get around him. Round 3: Mint Start off by going to the left. You can smash the guy with the shiled by pressing on the lever, which will cause the weight to fall down on him. Round 4: Underground Follow the same techniques as in the previous rounds. Round 5: Jewelry Store To avoid the people, walk on the cases behind the people. Round 6: Laboratory Get the first treasure, then go up the stairs. Get the second treasure, then go up to the third floor and cross over. Then, make you way down the stairs, picking up the treasures, eventually ending up where you started. Round 7: Deluxe Liner Lead the enemy with a shield under the weight, and then crush him. Round 8: Art Museum Wait until the first guy is behind the ticket booth, then run across and hide behind the next shelf with the art on it. Stay against the wall as much as possible. Round 9: Pyramid Wait until the first guy on the second floor is behind the pillar, then cross over and hide behind the stairs and when he turns away, shoot him. There are two traps on the top floor. They are designated by discolorations in the ground. Shoot the enemies and jump over the traps.

Boxing Legends of the Ring Exhibition Mode Use Up/Down to scroll text Just think of the Exhibition mode as the mercy mode. In Exhibition fights, the boxers don't try as hard and the stats don't count. If we had to guess, we would bet that you'll do most of your playing right here. To select this mode, move the cursor to "Exhibition" and press the Start button. This feature is your best chance to practice. Do it: you'll be licking the canvas if you don't. After you have selected this feature, you will be asked how many people will be playing. Move the Control Pad left or right to select zero, one or two players. Zero players is the spectator mode. It was designed for armchair heroes whose mouth is always writing checks their butt can't cash. By the way, you look like you have a small bank account yourself. Use the zero player option to study up on the other boxers; you'll be doing yourself a favor. One player allows you to fight another boxer of your choice and two player will let you fight one of your cream-puff buddies. Find your little sister and fight her. After all, you might beat her. After you have the correct number of players, hit Start. You'll then be able to choose either a boxer to represent your sorry self or insert a password and practice with one of your previously created boxers. To select a boxer, press the Control Pad either left or right to cycle through the choices. Passwords are obtained in the Career mode. Hey! We'll discuss the Career mode later, pipe down. If you're fighting a computer boxer, press "B" to see what you're up against. You'll be able to view his stamina, chin, and strength. When you're done looking, press Start. After you've checked his stats, keep telling yourself it's going to be o.k.; it won't be, but keep telling yourself that. After the boxer's attributes have been viewed, press the A-button when your desired boxer's frame is flashing. It doesn't matter if it is a zero, one or two player game, all boxers need to be selected in this manner. Boxing Legends of the Ring Career Mode Use Up/Down to scroll text Think of the Career Mode as the put up or shut up phase of the game. We think you'll be quiet. In the Career mode, you can custom design your own boxer. Ideally, you'll win one or two matches. Some might even challenge the number one ranked boxer; you won't, but some people might. If the world was a perfect place, you would achieve Legendary status yourself. Let us fill you in on something, kid, the world ain't perfect. If you still want to try then move the cursor to "Career" and press Start. Good luck, kid, we're putting all of our money on the other guys. After "Career" has been selected you'll be advanced to a new screen. If you are going to create a new boxer, a future Legend of the Ring, move the cursor, via the pad, to "Create Boxer" and press Start. "Enter Name" will appear on the screen. To enter the fighter's name, press the Control Pad up or down to cycle through the letters. When you have found the desired letter, press the Control Pad left or right to advance into another square. To cycle through the three lines of letters available, press the Control Pad left or right as well. If you wish to change a letter move the cursor to the position desired and then up or down to change the letter. When your name has been entered press Start. If you do not enter a new name for your created boxer, you will be given a name by default. If you have already created a boxer and are on your way to achieving legendary status, you can enter a password to begin the game from where you left off. You obtain a password each time you finish a fight in the Career mode (We'll talk about this in a second or two). To enter a password, move the Control Pad to "Enter Password" and press Start. Enter your password in the same fashion you entered the name of your boxer (outlined above). To escape the password feature press the B-button. If the password has been entered, press the Start-button. If the password has been entered incorrectly, the screen will read "Try Again." If the password has been entered correctly, you will be sent to the "Ring Magazine" ranking screen. (This will be discussed later). From this point, you will be able to resume play exactly where you left off. If you are creating a new boxer and you already entered your name, you'll need to decide where you came from. There are three choices, see which best describes you. Sorry, "Crybaby," isn't one of the choices. Street: This is the person who has had to back up everything they say while living life in the neighborhood. This is the hard guy who has tired of cuffing the local bullies. Street is the background for the person who has prevented milk money theft for too long and now wants something more. Military: If you have suffered through too many 26 mile hikes and food you wouldn't feed to your dog then you should choose the military background. The government has finally done something right by toughening you up. Maybe all those calisthenics at the crack of dawn has turned you into a man. If you have a chin like granite, a chin which would scratch a diamond, then the military background is for you. Olympic: If you are well rounded, with fully developed boxing talent, then the Olympic background is the correct choice. You had to hone your skills so that you could take the best the other countries had to offer and then force feed them some national pride of your own. You spanked the other nations, you got your medal, now see if you can earn a championship belt as well. All three styles have profound differences in punch power, stamina and chin. To cycle through these possibilities, press the Control Pad in any direction. When you have decided on a style, press Start. You will now be given 10 strength beads to allocate to your punching power, stamina and chin. Move the Control Pad up or down to cycle through the three traits. To allocate the beads, press the A button to add or the B-button to take away beads from the respective categories. As you progress in the game, more beads will be earned. The boxer will earn two beads for a win of any type or one bead for a loss. The more you fight, the stronger you will become. Allocate all earned beads as outlined above. This is done between matches in the Training mode. The Training mode appears after every fight in the Career mode. When you are satisfied with your allocations, press the Control Pad to the right. You will now be able to choose the appearance of your legend to be. There are several unique skin tones and faces to choose from. To cycle forward through the choices, press the A-button. To cycle backwards through the choices press the B-button. When your selection is made, press Start. The Create Boxer screen is where you customize your boxer's punches. Move the Control Pad up or down to allocate strength to the following punches: * Left Jab * Left Hook Body * Left Hook Head * Left Uppercut * Right Cross Body * Right Cross Head * Right Uppercut To allocate beads, follow the same procedure outlined above. When all of the beads have been allocated to your seven punches, move the cursor to the super punch icon. To view the punches, press the C-button. You have three Special Punches to choose from. Be cautious in using this weapon. You start with only one. To cycle through the three punches, press the B-button. Press the C-button to view the Special Punches as well. * Note: In both the "Create Boxer" and "Training" screens, all beads must be allocated to advance to another screen. If you've got 'em, use 'em! Your boxer has been created! You will begin play ranked #10 in "Ring Magazine". These rankings display the boxers you have to defeat to become a legend. To view the characteristics of your opponents, move the cursor to the boxer's name and press the B-button. These characteristics were viewed in the Exhibition mode. Don't start to cry again; stop it! Stand up and fight. To escape, press Start. When you are ready to rumble, press Start. After each fight you will be taken to the "Ring Magazine" ratings screen. This screen will enable you to view the ranking and records of all your opponents. Your password is given to you on this screen. Occasionally, fighters you have defeated will challenge you to a rematch. You are obligated to honor them. To begin your next fight, either a fresh fight or a rematch, press the Start-button. Boxing Legends of the Ring Battle of the Legends Use Up/Down to scroll text The Battle of the Legends is reserved for only the best. In fact, your boxer can't even play in it. No one can enter into the Battle of the Legends until they have proven themselves in the Career mode. You see, the Battle of the Legends is the brawl to settle all, the war that settles the score, the fight to set things right. The winner of the Battle of the Legends has earned the right to call himself the king of the hill. Once your boxer has proven himself in the Career mode, perhaps he might gather his guts and sign his name on the dotted line of the Legends Battle. Once (or in your case, if) you complete the Career mode, you'll receive a password which is called a Legends Password. If your boxer has a legend password, then that's his key to the Battle of the Legends. If you have emerged victorious from the "Career" feature, you have received a password that will allow you to enter your Legend of the Ring fighter into the Battle of the Legends. To enter your password, follow the instructions outlined in the Password section of the Career mode. With this feature you can pit your fighter against other created Legends, either created or authentic, in a single elimination tournament. If your boxer doesn't have the password, then don't let the door hit him on the back as he leaves. You, and up to eight of your wimpy little chums, can fight in the tournament. If each person has a Legends password then shove them in. Select the number of players like you did in the Exhibition mode. All odd-numbered fighters are selected by pressing Start on the first Controller and all even numbered fighters are selected by pressing Start on the second Controller. Once you have the correct number of chumps, press Start. The Battle of the Legends mode is a no holds barred battle where much can be both gained and lost. In the Battle of the Legends, up to eight players can participate in round 'em and pound 'em action. Move the cursor to "Battle of the Legends" and press Start. Select the number of players as you did in the Exhibition mode. When you have selected the number of players desired, press Start. In the Battle of the Legends mode, the game player or players can either watch or not watch matches fought between computer boxers. Before the fights begin, the player is given a choice to watch the fight or not. Press the Control Pad to Yes, No, or Cancel and press Start. If Yes was selected, sit back, relax and enjoy the fight. If No was selected, the fight will not be viewed and the outcome will be displayed. If Cancel was selected the mode is exited and you can move the cursor around the screen. Let's get ready to rumble! Can you become the "Best of the Best" of the Legends of the Ring? Press Start to find out!

If I stand on them just right... TNT Crate: This one is dynamite! I can bounce off the top or power pounce off the side. Either way, press the Pounce button for extra height. Strongmen: I'd jump here if I were you. For extra height, hold down the Pounce button when I hit it. Bubsy Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Be sure to bounce on trees.

It covers all three floors of Egypt, Music, Space, Medieval, and Aerial worlds, including an expanded version of the first and second floor levels. That's 15 glorious levels! Before Bubsy can move from one floor to another, Bubsy must TAG THE END OF LEVEL MARKER located in each world and fight the interim boss. After Bubsy has completed all floors, he'll face the ultimate challenge of battling Oinker. Play for Points or Time? When you're playing for High Score, pick up every marble and treasure you can find. Search thoroughly, but don't waste too much time. You have only 15 minutes to get through each level. When you're playing for Best Time, the on-screen clock is counting the time it takes for you to get to the end of the level. Points don't matter, so don't waste precious seconds going after items you don't need. Travel Advisories For the Tour You'll notice, as you step into the Amazatorium, that in front of every wild and wonderful world there's a transporter pad.(But there is NO food or drinks allowed. Unless you want to share). To enter any of the worlds, press left/right to put Bubsy on the transporter pad. Then, press up and it's "bon voyage, Bubsy." The Amazatorium Gift Shop As a bonus for completing a level, use your Trading Cards to buy any of the toys. Press up/down to select the item you wish to buy, then press left. The current rate of exchange is: Nerf Ballzooka ball = 1 card Smart Bomb = 25 cards Diving Suit = 3 cards T-Shirt = 25 cards Portable Hole = 5 cards Press Start to get back to the tour. Mid-Level Markers When Bubsy gets to an exclamation point, he's part way through a level. Make him tag it and it will change to a spinning red marble with his charming face on one side. When Bubsy loses a life, he'll come back to the last mid-level marker he tagged. Usable Items When the Bubsy Twins took their bag of toys into the Amazatorium, they didn't notice the gradually widening hole in the bottom, which leaked the contents all over five different worlds. Find and collect these nifty items. They'll help you during the tour. Portable Hole Press D-Pad down + C Button until the Portable hole is selected. Press the C Button once and Bubsy will be rarin' to go. Press the C Button again and Bubsy will dive through the hole and arrive back at the Amazatorium. Diving Suit Press D-Pad down + C button until the Diving Suit is selected. Press the C Button once more to put on the Diving Suit and a second time to take it off. Smart Bomb Press the D-Pad down + C Button until the Smart Bomb is selected. Press the C Button to set off the bomb. Nerf Ballzooka Press the D-Pad down + C Button until the Nerf Ballzooka is selected. Press the C Button to fire Nerf balls at Oinker's henchmen. Bubsy II Items Use Up/Down to scroll text ITEMS Trading Cards To collect trading Cards: Bop enemies with your Ballzooka or get the Super Marble from the Liquid Lunacy Mini-Game. Patch-Up This bobcat fixer-upper looks like a great, big bandage. It's good for anything that ails me. If I'm close to losing all my lives, have Bubsy tag the Patch-Up. The Bubsy icon in the upper right screen will show his speedy recovery. Bag o' Marbles What it says, is what it is. A big Bag o' Marbles. But you can nab some happy points by scooping up one. So, keep on the lookout... Super Marble "Found only in the Liquid Lunacy Mini-Game," that's what the brochure says. Well, good luck to you, diving for that buried treasure. Bubsy would do it, but you know how much he hates water. It just plays heck with his hair! Marble Crates Now, you thought the Bag o' Marbles was something to write home about. Just imagine a CRATE of marbles. Just thinkin' about all those points, makes Bubsy wanna go buy a forklift. The Mighty Souvenir T-Shirt No trip would be complete without a souvenir T-Shirt. So, if you see one of these shirts, grab it! It'll give you an extra life. Continues When you've lost all Bubsy's lives, the game will know which levels you've completed, and will place you back in the Amazatorium ready to go again. Bubsy II Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * To open your "lion" share of doors in the Egypt World, look for hidden switches and press up. Switches in other worlds look like, well, SWITCHES. * In Two-Player Feisty games, beware of banana backlash. If you get bopped with one in Air Wars or Space Pirates, your bi-plane or rocket will temporarily go bonkers. * Watch out for tires; one wrong turn and Arnold becomes a re-tread. And guaranteed, you will lose your time bonus for that. * On all tours, except the First Floor Tour, some of Oinker's henchmen will take multiple hits before they go out for lunch. * Also, watch for the boss door once all the tour levels are completed.(The Grand Tour boss tour will lead through all sections of the Amazatorium before you reach your Final destination). * Wanna REALLY make the fur fly? Try playing 2 Player Feisty for Time. Run with the wildcats in a paw-over-claw race of the survival of the firstest. Only the fastest bobcat can be topcat in this game. * Press Start while you're in the Amazatorium if you want to know your current score. * If things look ugly, and they will if Bubsy has two hits, keep an eye out for the Patch-Up. * Each useable item can be used only once. After that, Bubsy will have to scramble through the levels to pick up others or, purchase them with Trading Cards.

GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS THE EVENTS HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES California Games Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text Welcome to a new state of intensity-California. Home of the most radical sports in the world. Get ready to hit the beaches, parks and dirt tracks of the Golden State to compete in everything from surfing to bike racing. Start off in the heart of Hollywood, with skateboards in hot competition on the radical Half Pipe. Then rocket up to San Francisco for the high-flying Foot Bag and some really wild footwork. After that, it's down to the beach for two of the coolest sports under the hot California sun. Get a tan beachside on the sidewalk Skating obstacle course. Awesome! Then take up the king of coastal competition, Surfing. Shoot the tube and carve the biggest breakers on the beach...and watch out for that rip tide! Over at the dirt track for the grand finale, pump the pedals of a BMX racing bike. Whoop-ti-doo! That's five massive events. You're gonna have your hands full. Not to mention your feet! So pull on those knee pads. You're gonna travel from the turf to the surf. From the pipe to the parks. Are you gonna love it, or what?

Button A, B or C: * Any button starts your athlete in an event. California Games The Events Use Up/Down to scroll text Half-Pipe Skateboarding: It's time to get air on the half pipe. Skateboarding is definitely an awesome event, combining strength and coordination-often with amazing results. You'll ride a skateboard on a specially-built half pipe. You have a 1 minute 20-second time period, or three falls, to build up speed and successfully complete stunts. Points are awarded for each stunt. The highest score wins the event! Button A: Press at the top of the ramp to start a Hand Plant. Button B: Press to change tracks. Button C: Press to slow down. D-Button: * Press Up when the skater is going up the ramp, and Down when he's riding down, to gain speed. This is sort of like pumping on a swing. * Spin by tapping Left or Right, opposite the direction of the skater. Half-Pipe Goal: In this event, you'll ride a skateboard back and forth on the ramp, trying to perform stunts with perfect timing and execution. The event lasts for 1 minute 20 seconds, or three falls. The clock is at the top center of the screen. The player's name and score are at the top right. In two-player simultaneous play, both athletes skate at the same time for a single score. If one player falls three times and is out of the event, the other player can change tracks by pressing Button B. Half-Pipe Scoring: You score points for each stunt you successfully complete. Some stunts are more difficult and earn higher scores than others. Your score increases with the amount of risk you take. For example, if you hold a turn until the last moment, you get more points than if you pull out early when it's safer. Note: Single-players Half-Pipe has four different types of stunts. Two-players simultaneous Half-Pipe has only three different types of stunts. Kick Turn, Aerial Turn: 100 to 999 points, depending on height. Hand Plant: 100 to 700, depending on speed. Changing Tracks: 100 to 300. 3 Stunts in a Row: 3,000-point bonus. Bouncing the Foot Bag: This is probably the most laid-back event in California Games. But don't lose your cool-it isn't easy! Bouncing the Foot Bag is like juggling with your feet. You work the bag for 1 minute 20 seconds, using your feet, knees, arms, shoulders or head, but not your hands! Score extra points by doing stunts. The highest score wins! D-Button: * Press Left or Right to move in those directions. * Press Down to turn around (about face). Button A: * In one-player events, press to work the bag (same as Button B). * In two-player simultaneous events, press to pass the bag and transfer control from one player to the other. Button B: * Press to kick, hit or head-butt the bag during the event. Button C: * Press for a super head-butt. Foot Bag Goal: Try to keep the ball in the air with as many kicks, hits and head-butts as possible before time runs out. Before a game, you can select one or two players, one or two bags, and Earth or Moon gravity for this event. In two-player simultaneous play, both players try to keep one or two sacks in the air for a single radical score. The clock is at the top center of the screen. The player's name and score are at the top right. The event ends after 1 minute 20 seconds of play. Foot Bag Scoring: You earn points for each successful stunt or kick. More difficult stunts earn higher scores. The following is a list of the stunt, the points for each stunt, and how they're done. Regular Kick: 10; Any simple bounce with any body part. Five in a Row: 750; 5 (or more) consecutive bounces. Half Axle: 250; Any 2 kicks with a half-spin in between. Full Axle: 500; Any 2 kicks with a full spin in between. Axle Foley: 750; Any 2 kicks with one and a half spins in between. Horseshoe: 500; Left back kick + right back kick. Double Arch: 2500; Left outside kick + right outside kick + left outside kick. Reverse Doda: 5000; Doda one way + Doda the other way. Doda: 5000; Left outside kick + head butt + right outside kick. Jester: 2000; Left or right jumping kick. Dizzy Dean: 1500; Front head-butt + back head-butt. Head Banger: 1500; Dizzy Dean + front head-butt. Nice Catch: 1500; Catch from offscreen. Pass: 3000; Pass from one player to another. Moon gravity (weak) earns only one-half the scores shown. With Earth gravity (strong), a bonus clock appears at 10,000 points. Hitting the clock with the bag gains you an additional 13 seconds. Hitting the bird at any time is worth 1000 points. A special bonus of up to 99,000 points is awarded for the variety and complexity of your stunts. After two consecutive Jesters, the bag will flash and you'll earn double scores for every stunt, plus an extra 26 seconds. Surfing: Surfing began as the sport of Hawaiian kings. Now it rules the California coastline. From Santa Cruz to San Diego, surfers and their colorful boards dot the sun-splashed waves. And you're about to join them! You have 1 minute 20 seconds to shoot the curl, shred the tube, and probably even eat a little sand (when you wipe out). It's going to be hot, but you'll be hotter. In fact you'll be awesome! D-Button: * Press Left to steer the surfers left. * Press Right to steer to his right. Button C: * Press along with the D-Button to slow the surfer down. Surfing Goal: Competition surfing is a game of staying near the curl of the wave and maneuvering your board smoothly at high speeds. Ride the face of the wave, moving back and forth, in and out of the tube. "Use" as much of the wave as you can before your ride comes to an end. You can choose a Light, Regular or Turbo board for different kinds of action. The event ends after 1 minute 20 seconds of play. The clock is at the top center of the screen, with the player's name at the right. Surfing Scoring: Five referees will score you on the number and quality of your stunts, and on how many times you fall. On a Light board, turns earn only half the score. Roller Skating: Roller skating is hot. Anyone can skate and almost everyone does, with a feeling of freedom unlike any other sport. California Games skating is as radical as you can get. The trick is to skate down a beach boardwalk without falling. Sounds easy! But you only have 1 minute 50 seconds, or five falls, to avoid cracks, grass, sand, puddles, grates, cast-off sandals and more-and still finish the obstacle course! You'll even have to dodge flying beach balls! D-Button: * Press Up and Down to "pump" and gain speed. * Press Left for a single spin. * Press Right for a double spin (only when in the air). Button B: * Press and hold to squat. * Release to jump. Skating Goal: In this event, you want to avoid obstacles and cover the course in the best possible time, while performing as many stunts as you can. You have 1 minute 50 seconds, or five falls, to complete the event. The game clock is at the top center of the screen. The player's name and score are on the top right. Skating Scoring: You score points for each object you skate around successfully. Gain double points for jumping over obstacles. Complicated moves, like 360's while jumping, earn the highest scores. Avoiding Obstacles: 10-30 Points. Jumping over Obstacles: 20-60. Avoiding the Beach Ball: 50. Hitting the Beach Ball: 100. Avoiding the Skater: 200. Single-Spin Jumps (360's): 40-120. Double-Spin Jumps: 60-180. Finish the course on time for a most excellent prize! BMX Bike Racing: "BMX" stands for Bicycle Motocross. It also stands for radical action and challenging competition. In this event, riders use strong, lightweight bikes to race on an action-packed track in the California desert. There are plenty of jumps, bumps and dips. (Rows of low bumps are called "Whoop-ti-doos.") You'll need speed, a good sense of timing, and a heavy dose of endurance to complete this 2 minute (or three falls) obstacle course to glory! D-Button: * Press Up to steer to the rider's left. * Press Down to steer to his right. Button B: * Press to jump. * Press with the D-Button Up for a Backward Flip. * Press with the D-Button Down for a 360 degree turn. Button C: * Press repeatedly to increase speed. BMX Goal: The BMX Bike Racing goal is to cover the course in the fastest time, while performing stunts and avoiding obstacles. The fastest daredevil wins the event! You have 2 minutes, three easy falls, or one serious fall to complete the track. (Snagging your tire on a log is an easy fall. Flipping on your head is a serious fall.) The clock is in the top center of the screen. The player's name and score are at the top right. BMX Scoring: The faster your time, the higher your score will be. You also get points for each stunt, with bonus points for holding stunts as long as possible. Jump: 50-400 Points. 360 degree Turn: 800-2000. Backward Flip: 1500-3500. When you complete the course, you get 500 points for each second left in the time limit. Earn 40,000 points or more and win the grand prize! California Games Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Half-Pipe Strategy: * Hand plants are a good way to gain speed. To do them, press Button A when the middle of the board crosses the rail. * In order to do a trick like a hand-plant or rail-slide, your board has to face the rail on which you will do your trick. For example, if you want to perform a rail-slide on the right rail, your board has to face the right rail and vice-versa. * Use the rail slide only when you are going slowly. * In order to do stunts easily, start off by doing rail slide and getting into a rhythm. Then graduate to harder techniques. * To spin, tap the D-Button in the opposite direction your skater is going. For example, if your skater is rolling to the left, press the D-Button Right. * Tap the D-Button at the bottom curve of the ramp to start a Kick Turn. For Aerial Turns, tap the D-Button at the moment you hit air just off the edge of the ramp. * Be sure to get up plenty of speed before attempting a Hand Plant. Then just as you reach the top of the ramp, press Button A + the D-Button in the correct direction to begin your spin. The skater will plant his hands and flip the board over his head. Wait to release the D-Button until the board arcs over and returns to the ramp. * To slide, press Button B + the D-Button when your skater is at the top of the ramp. For example, press Button B + D-Button Left when your skater is at the top right. * Earn top points on Kick Turns, Aerial Turns and Hand Plants by waiting until the last moment to start the turn, and holding the D-Button until the moment before you'd wipe out. * Pay close attention to your timing. You'll fall if you attempt a turn too soon or too late. * Build up speed before trying a stunt by doing a "fakie." Hold the D-Button Up or Down for the full length of the ramp (from top to bottom). Remember that you'll wipe out if you go too fast. * Above all, be sure to get plenty of practice. It takes lots of experience on the half-pipe to get your timing down just right. Foot Bag Strategy: * Success is all in the timing. Try to "feel" the exact right moment to kick, and you'll keep the bag bouncing high! * As the bag falls toward the ground, press Button B to kick it just before it reaches your foot. * To head-butt, press Button B just before the bag drops below the level of your head. * Many types of kicks are possible. To perform them, move to different positions while the bag is in the air. For example, hop to the right so the bag will drop next to you (but not too far away). Press Button B when the bag is near your foot, and you'll perform an outside kick. * Try inside kicks, outside kicks, jumping reverse kicks, knee kicks and back kicks. Discover the ways to perform them all by experimenting with different moves and positions during practice. Surfing Strategy: * The fastest way to gain speed is to cut the wave up and down in a rhythmic motion. * To make successful jumps, try to enter the wave at the angle that you left it. For example, if you left the wave going straight up, you would have to enter the wave going straight down in order not to wipe out. * The only way to get a high score is by variety. Doing jumps, staying under the wave, popping the beach balls, etc. are the way to get high variety scores. * Tap the D-Button Left to avoid wiping out at the beginning of your ride. * If you get too close to the bottom of the wave, you'll either wipe out or end your ride by leaving the wave. * Pop beach balls with the tip of your board to improve your score. * "Catching air" scores bonus points. Ride off the top of a wave, then turn and continue your ride. * Take risks! The more stunts you do, the more points you'll earn! Skating Strategy: * When pressing the D-Pad up and down to move your character, the smoother the movement, the faster you will go! * As in BMX, memorize where the obstacles lie to avoid a wipe out. * To max out points, do reverse jumps over the obstacles. * Finish the round, and get a "special" ending! * Try to avoid all obstacles. Skating around them and jumping over them are good tactics for beginners. * Keep an eye on the sides of the course.

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME THE ACME CRIME COMPUTER HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Where is Carmen Sandiego? Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text The Chase is on Monday, 5 a.m. A ringing sound jars you awake. You grope for the phone and drop the receiver on the floor. Out of the darkness comes the voice of the chief: "Wake up, kid. Got an assignment for you." You stumble out of bed, turn on the light and grab your brand new detective's notebook. "Just got a call from Interpol," says the chief. "Looks like Carmen's gang has pulled another caper." "Any leads?" you ask. "Not with this bunch. They're too slick. Can't give you any more details on the phone. Better get down to the office double quick. It's going to be a rough one." "Right chief." As your trembling hand replaces the phone on its cradle, you wonder why you ever got into this line of work. Before this morning, Carmen Sandiego and her Villains' International League of Evil (V.I.L.E.) were just sensational headlines in the newspaper. For more than five years, Carmen and her gang of felons had managed to stockpile the world's most valuable treasures while outwitting every so-called crime expert from New York to Sydney. Now they've struck again. And you, the newest employee of the Acme Detective Agency, have been given the near-impossible assignment of tracking them down. Where is Carmen Sandiego?

THE ASSIGNMENT Your starting point is the scene of the crime -- the city where the thief swiped the treasure. The thief is heading for a hideout in one of 30 locations. To win the game and advance your career, you must accomplish two tasks before your deadline: 1. Track the criminal's movements to his or her final destination. 2. Identify the criminal and get a warrant for his or her arrest. Promotions are based on the number of cases you solve. You start as a Rookie and move up through the ranks. Warrants are issued based on information you've entered in the Database. Clues to the identity of the thief will be given to you as you pursue the villain from city to city. You'll log these clues into the crime computer. When the identity of the suspect has been established the computer will issue an arrest warrant. There are 10 possible suspects, any one of whom could be the thief. Carmen Sandiego is the most elusive of the lot. During your search, the Dossiers menu allows you to select the individual crime file for any of the suspects. This gives you a chance to see who you're up against. Where is Carmen Sandiego? The ACME Crime Computer Use Up\Down to scroll text With the state-of-the-art Acme Comlink, you can travel, gather and process clues, and review dossiers. The left screen displays your location and the date and time so you can keep track of your progress. The keys on the lower right panel of the screen control the crime computer. They are the Options, Travel, Search, and Data keys. When you select the Options, Search and Data keys, you are presented with a list of secondary options. To select a secondary option, D-Pad up/down to move the green highlight over the option of your choice and press any button. To return to the main screen, highlight EXIT MENU and press A, B or C. Options Key The Options feature lets you review and, in some cases, change the game setup. You can read the credit screen, view your password and the current case brief, change the language, or quit the game. Travel Key The Travel feature lets you pursue the suspect to another location. You can also check out the possible destinations before you SEARCH to assist you in evaluating clues. When you select the Travel key, a map of the world appears, and possible cities of destination are shown. To Travel: D-Pad up/down/left/right until the red box is over the city of your choice, then press any button. If you decide you don't want to travel just yet, make sure the red box is over the city where you are, then press any button. Search Key The Search feature lets you unearth clues regarding both the identity and whereabouts of the suspect. Clues may include physical features, hobbies and habits. You may want to enter clues about physical features directly into the Acme Comlink. That way you won't forget any of the important grit you dig up! To search for clues: Select one of the locations you are given and press any button. Interview as many informants as you wish. Data Key The Data feature lets you view Interpol criminal files on V.I.L.E. henchmen and to enter data you've gathered from your interviews. It also puts all of the data together, identifies a suspect, and issues a warrant for his or her arrest. To obtain data: Select DOSSIER. A list of suspects appears. Select the name of the file you wish to review, then press any button. When you've finished with the file, press any button to return to the previous screen. Select EXIT MENU to return to the main screen. To enter data: Select WARRANT. A character list appears. D-Pad up/down/left/right to the characteristic you wish to identify, then press any button to cycle through the possible choices. When the character trait you want appears, select another characteristic or EXIT MENU to return to the main screen, or COMPUTE to run a "make". To issue a warrant: Select COMPUTE. The crime computer searches through all known facts about each possible suspect. If the characteristics you entered into the crime computer match the profile of one and only one suspect, a warrant will be issued. If the characteristics fit more than one suspect, the names of all possible suspects will be displayed. In this case, you'll have to gather more clues before a warrant is issued. Where is Carmen Sandiego? Hints and Tips Use Up\Down to scroll text The main screen always gives your present location and tells you the time and day of the week. As you arrive in each new city, be sure to read the descriptions that appear on screen. he descriptions contain information that will be useful in pursuing Carmen and her gang. The pictures themselves -- notable landmarks or typical scenes from that country -- may also come in handy. The thief cleverly stays in hiding, but he orders a crony to check you out. When you see a suspicious person run across the screen, you know you're on the right track. If you've traveled to the wrong destination (you'll know if you don't find any information or henchmen), travel back to the city where you last obtained information. Then look over the facts again and try a different location. No thief worth his or her salt gives up without a fight. The closer you get, the more dangerous your situation becomes. Use the Crime Computer sparingly or you'll use up valuable hours and may miss your deadline. And don't waste time playing tourist or aimlessly crisscrossing the globe. Be sure you've been issued an arrest warrant by the Crime Computer before you catch up with the thief. If you don't have a warrant issued for the correct suspect, you can't make an arrest, and the thief will slip through your fingers. If you're close to capturing a thief but you have NOT been issued an arrest warrant, you'll want to go through the dossiers and take a guess at which suspect you think is guilty. Enter the data on the WARRANT screen and select COMPUTE to issue a warrant.

I can rely only on my swords and my knowledge of alchemy to release me from these bonds of time." Slash out with Chakan's double flaming swords and incredible spinning attacks.

Chakan the Foreverman Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Chakan is doomed to search the four portals of the world--Earth, Air, Fire and Water--seeking out and destroying the Inhuman Royalty of Supernatural Darkness. His search begins at the Navigation level, where a huge chart marks the four points of the world. Here the ebb and flow of his wanderings are counted. Here also Chakan returns, amid the eerie howling of beasts, when he is overcome by the forces of horror. Four Mystic Portals can be found in the Navigation level. Each leads to one point of the world. Move Chakan through the Navigation level to seek and discover the portals. When you reach a portal, stand in front of it and press the Jump button to travel into its levels. Each portal of the world has two planes: Terrestrial and Elemental. You must first subdue the fiends of all four Terrestrial planes before you are allowed entry to the Elemental planes. When you conquer a phase, you return to stand before the Mystic Portal of that point of the world. You can now re-enter the portal, or journey through another portal to another point of the world. HOUR GLASS: As the sands recede from the upper to the lower flask, time fades away. Should the upper flask empty completely, Chakan will be forced back to the Mystic Portal with a stinging rebuke from the cruel lips of Death. He loses all weapons and potions acquired while in the portal, and he must start the plane of that portal over from the beginning.

Chakan the Foreverman Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * When fighting the stage one boss monsters, kneel and slash. The guard sword will keep the monster at bay. His weapon will flail over your head and you will be able to inflict major damage. * LEVEL SKIP: Skip the Terrestrial Plains and start at the Elemental Plains. If you have a "doorway magic", go to an area just above the entrance of the air gate and jump across to the right. You'll be on a small platform. Press pause and the only magic you can select is the "doorway"; unpause and Chakan will be kneeling and holding up to two potions. Then press the B Button and the entire screen will flash (you've just skipped through half the game). General Tips: Double-Roll: To do the double-roll, you'll want to roll off the side of any ledge and (as you're still rolling in the air) press the "jump" button again and you'll do a second roll in the air. NOTE: This is extremely hard to do and may require non-stop practice(Timing is a key factor in mastering the "Double-Roll.") Potions: If you enter a level and collect all the potions, you can destroy yourself without finishing that level. Enter the same level to collect the same potions again. This is to load up on potions before bosses or extremely difficult levels! NOTE: Clear Air Potions will only appear once during the game! Doorway Magic: When you reach a difficult boss and/or your time is running out, use the "doorway magic" (on the screen the boss is on) and you'll exit that stage. When you enter it again, you'll start out at the boss again! Water Phase 1: Terrestrial Planes In this stage, you have a choice of going under water or jumping from pillar to pillar above water. Try jumping from pillar to pillar to the right (you travel much faster above water). As you jump from pillar to pillar you'll find a blue "water potion." Keep going right and you'll find another blue "water potion" on a low pillar. Try to jump and roll to reach the top of that pillar. When you land on top of that pillar, jump to a platform to the left of it and you'll find a green "earth potion." Keep going right and you'll encounter a Green Fisherman. Destroy him (2 hits) and keep going right. Underwater, you'll face the Tentacle Creature. Use your invisibility (2 Blue Water Potions) then stand next to the Tentacle Creature. Point your sword down on it until it is destroyed. From there, continue right and you'll find the Grappling Hook! Fire Phase 1: Terrestrial Planes Defeat the 2 ghosts (2 hits each) and head right. You'll eventually jump on a platform. This part seems a dead end but it's not! Press down on your D-Pad and press the jump button and you'll drop down to 2 platforms. Wait on top of the second platform to the right and eventually a moving platform will come down. Jump on this moving platform and it will take you up. When you reach the top, go left and drop down. Continue left, jump up on a platform above you and go right. Jump up to another area above you and just to the right, you'll jump again to an area above where you're at now. Continue jumping up to the top, then go left. Defeat another ghost and when you go all the way left, jump up to yet another area. Continue right and you'll drop down a corridor with a moving platform in it. When you reach the bottom, move to the right and wait for another moving platform to take you to the top. When you reach the top, drop down to the right through another corridor. When you reach the bottom, move to the right and wait for yet another platform. When you reach the top again, drop down to the right through your last corridor and at the very bottom you'll find the Scythe Weapon! Air Phase 1: Terrestrial Planes You'll start on a platform, jump and roll to the platform to the right. From this platform, jump and roll to a platform above you to your left. From this platform, jump and roll to the platform directly above you. From this platform, jump and roll to a platform above you to the right. From this platform jump and roll to another platform above and to the right. From this platform, you'll see a brick long platform with a purple hooved mace wielding monster that throws rocks directly above and to the left of the platform you just reached. Use your orange Fire Sword magic (1 Blue Water Potion and 1 Red Fire Potion). Then just jump up and shoot the monster with the fire swords (Fire Swords shoot fireballs). Once you've defeated the monster, he'll leave 2 clear air potions. Get the potions (on the brick platform where the monster was), stand on the edge of the highest point of the brick platform and jump and roll to the right to a platform above you. From this platform jump and roll to the left to another platform above you. On this platform, you'll get 1 clear air potion and 1 green earth potion. From this platform, jump and roll to another platform to the left, then stand there and shoot the second purple monster with your Fire Sword until it's defeated. Once it's defeated jump to the right and collect 2 clear air potions and continue right until you reach a wall with an orange gate that will automatically open. Enter it and you will find the Battering Mallet Weapon! Earth Phase 1: Terrestrial Planes Start out by jumping and rolling across to a platform. Drop to the right side of the platform and when you reach the bottom, go right and you'll reach a dead end with a "blue potion". Go back left and jump back up to the platform, then drop to the left side of that platform. Drop all the way down to the bottom then go all the way right past alot of spiders. At the far right you'll have to jump and roll your way up to the top. When you reach the top, jump and use your grappling hook to swing from a hole in the wall where the spiders drop from a ledge to the left. From that ledge, jump across the gap and continue left, killing all the spiders you encounter. Drop down to the left of the ledge and go right jumping over the Spider Monster Boss, continue right, and you'll find a Battle Axe Weapon! (NOTE: You don't need to defeat the Spider Boss.) Air Phase 1: Elemental Planes When you first start out, stand in an open area and hold out your grappling hook. Eventually, a gladiator on the giant flying insect will come down and attack, continue to hold out the grappling hook (while standing still), and just wait for the enemy to fly into the hook until it destroys itself. Then you can jump on the flying insect and fly it up to the left where you will find a gunner that controls a laser barrier above. To defeat the gunner, fly up and hit him with your battering mallet, then fly down. You'll then fly back up and hit the gunner again with the battering mallet to defeat him. Once the gunner is defeated, the laser barrier above will disappear. Proceed up to the next gunner, defeat him, and continue up and right. At this point, you'll want to fly down between 2 laser beams (this part is tricky! Remember that you can be hit by the beam, but your insect won't be affected by a hit). Defeat the 2 gunners and fly up the corridor above. You'll find 2 more gunners. Defeat them and go up and take the first left to find the exit. Earth Phase 1: Elemental Planes Start out by dropping down a gap in front of you. When you land, drop down to an area below. Continue right, and drop down another gap and you'll land on a thin green line (hold D-Pad in the down position + the jump button and you'll drop down through the green line). You'll then land on an area below you, go right and drop down another gap with a green thin line. From here you'll want to drop down to a small platform with a gap on the right and left side. You'll want to drop down the gap to the left, and go right to yet another gap. Drop down that gap, and go left to another gap. You'll then want to go right and jump up to an area slightly above you. Drop down the gap, and you'll continue right to the exit. Water Phase 1: Elemental Planes Start out by going down an iced slope, drop to another platform, and you'll notice an iced covering. Use your battering mallet to break the iced platform. Drop down that gap, and you'll want to hold it to the right and time it so that you land on a platform that moves down when you land on it. Take the platform down to a second platform on the right, and take that platform down. Continue right and jump across a gap to another area above, and continue right to the exit. Fire Phase 1: Elemental Planes Start out by jumping right to a platform, and from the far right side jump directly across to another platform. Then, jump up and to the right to the next platform. Jump up and left to yet another platform, and from this platform, jump up two more platforms. At the top platform, jump to the platform that is slightly lower and to the right. From that platform, jump to the right, and as you fall, hold towards the right and you should land on a platform that sticks out of the side of a wall of lava. From this platform, jump up and right to a small platform floating on top of lava. When you land on this platform, hold your sword down to defeat 4 firebirds that fly out of the lava. Once you've defeated them, then wait for a moving platform on the right. When the moving platform comes down, jump on it, then off it to another platform on the right. From this platform, drop down to the right to another platform that sticks out from a wall of lava. Wait until another moving platform on the right comes down, jump on it, then off it to another platform that sticks out of a wall of lava on the right. On that platform, stop and jump up to the right to a small platform, and jump across to another platform to the right. Wait for another moving platform to come down, jump off it to another platform to the right. Then drop to the right and you'll land on a platform that sticks out of a wall of lava. From this platform, drop to the right and you'll land on a floating platform. Continue right, jumping from platform to platform, and the exit is all the way to the right. Water Phase 2: Terrestrial Planes Walk to the right, jump on the pillar next to the skull infested ground (don't jump on the skulls because there is a hidden creature that can destroy you). Jump up and swing the Battering Mallet to knock the breakaway blocks on the ceiling. When they break away, use your grappling hook on a small gold platform that appears after you get rid of the blocks. Swing on it using the Grappling Hook to the area above you. Then jump to the left past another skull infested part, but watch out for the worms that pop out. All the way left you'll find anohter gold platform that you can use your grappling hook to swing on. Use this to go to another area above you, then go right and swing from another small gold platform to the platform above. Then go left past a skull infested area and at the far left, swing on another small gold platform to an area above. Then go left past a skull infested area and at the far left, swing on another small gold platform to an area above. Go right by jumping from platform to platform and go past another skull infested area (watch out for the Mantis Worm!). Get a clear air potion at the far right then you'll also see another small gold platform. Use it to swing and jump up to another area above. Continue left, and go past a skull infested area (watch out for the worms!), and at the far left you'll go up by taking 3 small gold platforms up. Once at the top, you'll see a small gem on a small platform at the upper left but you can barely see it because a waterfall is covering that platform. Jump and swing onto that platform to get the gem. Then you'll go right past another skull infested area (watch out for a Mantis Worm). All the way to the right, jump up to a higher platform and from this platform jump and swing up from another small gold platform to an area above. Defeat the Tentacle Monster, go left then go up another area by using another gold platform to swing on and defeat the second Tentacle Monster and you'll automatically finish this phase. Fire Phase 2: Terrestrial Planes Go right, defeat the Winged Harpy, and at the far right (you'll notice a small thin floor about 2 blocks long) stand on it, hold "straight down" and press the jump button to drop down to another area. Go left and drop down the first gap and you'll land on a platform. Drop off the ledge to the left and as you drop, hold it to the right and you'll fall between two small platforms and you'll land on another platform. Drop from the right side of that platform and hold it to the right as you fall so that you can land on a ledge of a platform (if you don't hold it to the right, you'll fall into the fire and die). Go to the right side of the platform and you'll notice what looks like bull skulls to the top right and you'll go up a corridor (still using the bull skulls to go up). You find, that once you reach the top, go right and at the far right you'll reach a dead end (part of the floor is made of breakaway blocks). Swing the Battering Mallet from the up position and down in a half-circle formation (like in the form of the letter "C" or backwards "C"). If you do this correctly, you'll break the block floor and drop down to more bull skulls. In this area you'll find the exit at the bottom left. Earth Phase 2: Terrestrial Planes Use your shield magic to get through the Blue Glowing Orb (NOTE: If you don't have invincibility and destroy the orb, every hole you see in the background will hit you with a gas cloud). The gas clouds won't appear if you walk through the orb with shield magic. Continue left to a ledge, and jump up and to the left to reach a ledge. From this ledge jump to a ledge above you. Jump to the top where you'll land on a platform, walk to the left ledge of that platform and drop down to a platform slightly below, and to the left of the ledge you just dropped from. From this platform jump up and left to a small platform high up above you, and when you land on it jump left to a corridor. Go left and do a "Double Roll" across a gap to another platform then jump up and left to a small ledge in the gap above you. From this small ledge, jump up and left to the top of a platform slightly above the small ledge you were on. Jump up and right to the next platform above and again jump up and right to yet another platform above. Continue right until you reach a huge gap. Do a "Double Roll" across the gap to reach a platform at the far right. Continue right and drop down a narrow chasm, and when you land, go left and drop down another chasm and go right to the boss. BOSS: It's recommended to use your potions (shield, flame, sword), but if you don't have any potions, corner it at the far right and continually use the spin attack. Air Phase 2: Terrestrial Planes You'll start on a ledge and you'll want to jump across to the right to another ledge. Equip your Battle Axe, and use it to break down the door to the right of the ledge. Go four windows to the right and wait for a moving platform to come down. Jump on the moving platform and ride it up and when you reach the top, jump up and left to a platform. Then you'll want to wait until another moving platform comes down, and when you see it, you'll want to jump on it and ride it up. When you reach about half way to the top, try and jump across to the right to a tiny ledge. From that ledge, you'll jump up and left to another tiny ledge, wait for the moving platform to come down, jump on the moving platform and ride it up. At the top, jump across to an area above and go right to face the boss. BOSS: Use your grappling hook for a longer reach and use the spin attack to hit him. Or stand on the moving platform you took to get to the boss and use your Green Lightning Earth Sword or any other long distance shooting weapon, and shoot the boss when the moving platform is at or near the top. Fire Phase 2: Elemental Planes Use your grappling hook to swing from the pillars towards the upper right. At the far right, jump and fall towards the right. You should land on a solid area at the bottom. Make your way up to the upper right side and jump and hold it to the right side and you'll land on a slope. Make your way up to the top, and swing directly to a floor to the right and you'll find the exit. Water Phase 2: Elemental Planes Start out by heading right to the 2nd ice floor, equip your battering mallet and break the ice floor beneath you (hold D-Pad in up position + "B" Button + a half circle motion of the D-Pad towards the down position), and you'll fall and land on another ice floor. Break that one as well, and you'll land on a 3rd ice floor. Break that one, and drop straight down, and you'll land on an area below that has a gap to the left. Fall down this gap and you'll land on a second area with a gap towards the left. Drop straight down this gap and you'll land on a platform floating on iced water. Continue right jumping from platform to moving platform until you reach a solid area. The exit is on the right side of the solid area. Earth Phase 2: Elemental Planes Start out by dropping down a gap to the right and you'll land on a platform. Jump or "double roll" across to another platform, go right to the edge of that platform and jump and swing from a bullskull (using your grappling hook of course) up to a platform above you. Watch out for the Giant Claw Worm because if it grabs you, it will put you where you started. Go right, and you'll take the first way up, continue right, and at the far right drop down a gap to the exit. Air Phase 2: Elemental Planes First, start out by going to the left and you'll get a clear air potion. Then, go to the far right, and you'll defeat the flying insect riders. Jump on the flying insect and fly it up, go left, and go down between the lasers and take out all 3 gunners you see. At the far left, you'll want to fly up and take out another gunner, and continue up to another gunner. Defeat this gunner, continue up, and take out yet another gunner. Fly up then right, and up to the very top (you'll reach a ceiling), and you'll then go to the far right then you'll have to fly all the way down to the bottom. Then fly right, then up, and finally you'll fly left to the exit. Chakan the Foreverman More Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Fire Phase 3: Elemental Planes Start out by going right and jump off the edge to a platform below. From about the center of the platform roll off the edge to the left and hold down the jump button to do a long roll and you'll land on a platform floating on lava. Make your way left jumping from platform to platform. All the way left, you'll drop down on the left side to land on platforms sticking out of walls of lava. Once you reach the bottom jump across to a platform floating on lava. Make your way right jumping from platform to platform. At the far right, you'll drop down to solid ground. When you reach the bottom, proceed left and roll off the edge and you'll land on a platform sticking out of a wall of lava. Jump across to a floating platform and roll off it to the right and you'll land on another floating platform. Then, you'll want to roll off to the right to an area below to fight the boss. BOSS: Big Flying Demon. At first, you must stand still and wait for the creature to spit out 3 fireballs, then walk left or right to try and avoid them. Hold out your sword constantly pointing it diagonally at the boss. The boss will fly towards you and impale itself on your sword and then fall to the ground. The boss will be grounded for about 2 seconds, hit it before it flies away and repeat this pattern until defeated. Try not to jump or roll, because the boss will stay in the air and it will continue to spit fireballs. You should have enough potions for at least 1 shield, and 2 invisibilities. It took 27 hits of the sword to kill it! Earth Phase 3: Elemental Phase Drop down to the right through a gap, and you'll drop down to another gap to a small platform. Next, you'll want to jump across to another platform and go right and jump up a gap before the Claw Worm gets you. From this point, jump up to the right to a platform, and you'll want to do a "double roll" to a platform across to the right. Go up the first gap you see (use grappling hook), and you'll reach another platform up above. Then go right and do a "double roll" across to a long platform. Drop down the right side of that platform and at the very bottom you'll reach the boss. BOSS: Giant Claw Worm. Quickly start out by going to the right side of the room until you're touching the wall. Next, hold out your sword in the upper right (diagonally) corner, and when the Worm comes out, it will impale itself on your sword (you won't be hit and the worm goes back in the wall). Stand there with your sword in the above mentioned position and eventually you'll defeat it. Air Phase 3: Elemental Planes Jump across to the right to a platform above you. Drop down the gap on the right side of that platform, and you'll land on a small platform directly below. Next, you'll want to do a "double roll" across to solid ground to the right. Defeat a gunner and acquire a flying insect, and you'll fly up to the top (you'll hit a ceiling). Continue left and you'll defeat another gunner. Proceed to the right through a small corridor (at this point leaving your insect behind) and at the right defeat 2 other gunners, then fly up to defeat yet another gunner. Once defeated, fly up to the very top and go left to face the boss. BOSS: Jousting Insect Rider. If you have 2 red potions, use your earth lightning sword (or if you don't, if you reach the boss twice collect the red potion at the left side). When the boss flies in front of you, shoot him with your earth lightning then move up so that his lance misses you as he charges you. Repeat the pattern until the lance falls off. Shoot him and avoid his charge by moving down and repeat until defeated. Water Phase 3: Elemental Planes Roll down the slope and you'll land on another slope. You'll want to roll up that slope and jump across to the right. Use your grappling hook to swing across to the right and across to the red elevators (2 next to each other). Take the one to the right, and ride it down to another set of elevators. Ride the one on the right down to the bottom. At the bottom you'll reach water moving ice platforms. Take the ice platforms to the right to a large platform, and from there use your grappling hook to go up to the top where 2 monsters are above you. Use your grappling hook to go up another ice slope. Roll off the edge to another area and defeat the monster there. Continue right and drop into the first gap you see, and then go left and drop down to an area below. Finally, drop down to the left, but quickly hold it right to land on an ice platform. Jump to the right from the 2 elevator platforms to a snow area where you will face the boss. BOSS: Icy Borrower. Stay at the far left on the steps and wait for the monster to appear twice. Go right and stand to the right of the waterfall and wait for the borrower to show its face. First, duck down to avoid the laser beam that shoots out of the monster's eye. Second, when the monster pops out for the 2nd time, jump up and roll in the air to avoid its claw. Finally, when the monster pops up again hit him and he'll go back down in the snow (if you miss him or hit him too late, then the monster will shoot out spikes in the air). Remember, you can only hit him the 3rd time he sticks his head out of the snow. Repeat this pattern until defeated. Air Phase 3: Terrestrial Planes You'll start out on a ledge and wait for a flying boss enemy. When the enemy arrives from the right, walk to the left as soon as possible and use your grappling hook to hit him (and vice versa when he appears on the left side). If you time it just right, he won't hit you. After a while the boss will do a charge. It is hard to avoid and even hard to hit him when it charges. The best way to hit him is to stick out your weapon so that it charges into Chakan's weapon (recommend using shield or invisibility magic). Water Phase 3: Terrestrial Planes You'll start out on a ledge with a door. Don't take the door but drop to the left and you should land in an area underwater. Go left underwater and you'll reach a dead end with breakable blocks. Use your Battering Mallet to break the blocks and break the set of blocks to the left as well. Continue left underwater and you'll reach a small area above water with a door all the way on the left side and a small gold platform above. To the right of this door you'll want to ignore the door and jump up and use your Grappling Hook to swing from that small gold platform onto another just above the first one. From that second small gold platform you're hanging on, jump to the left to a regular platform. Walk to the left side of that platform and do a "double roll" to the other sid eof the gap and you'll land on a small gold-greenish brick pillar. Drop down to a fish-head statue, drop down to the left, and continue left underwater. Eventually you'll reach an area above water that has a thing that looks like a reddish-orange tree (it will hit you with tentacles if you get too close). What you've got to do, is to try and jump above it where you will find another fish statue, but that has 2 blue gems for its eyes. Grab the gems and drop back down to the tree monster and it will sink into the ground and you can proceed left and see 3 doors next to each other. Take the middle door to reach the boss. BOSS: The spin attack works really good on this boss and remember to use the Grappling Hook to swing away from it when necessary. Fire Phase 3: Terrestrial Planes Start out by going right and jump across to a small platform and make your way up to the top jumping from the platforms, swinging at the bull skulls with your Grappling Hook. At the very top, continue left and go up where you'll reach the left side of the screen. At the very top, continue right and you'll reach the Boss. BOSS: The Winged Witchress. Watch out for the sword she swings because she can throw fireballs at you. The best way to defeat her if by doing direct non-spin attack blows and constantly keep moving while you're hitting her. Earth Phase 3: Terrestrial Planes Start out by going right and roll off the edge and you'll land on a small ledge. The next thing you want to do is equip your Scythe, jump up and break the spider web above you (about 3 swings to break the spider web), then proceed to jump up to the platform where the spider web was on, and drop down the right side of that platform. When you reach the bottom, you'll be able to get a clear air potion. Backtrack back up the platform and drop down the left side of the platform. When you reach the very bottom equip your Scythe to break a spider web on the right. When you break the spider web, you can go right, and you'll want to drop down a narrow corridor. At the bottom of the corridor, you'll want to go left from here. You'll want to drop down to the left through another corridor. After you land, you'll jump up to a platform with a spider web on it. You'll then want to break the spider web and drop down to the left, and when you land, you'll face the boss. BOSS: Spider Queen. She is very difficult to beat. Always keep your sword in her face and duck and roll down to keep up with her. Ice blade works well on her head, and use shield magic when down to one skull.

The land of Alurea was once a peaceful place. Bumblebees bumbled their way from flower to flower. Schools of fish swam to school every morning. The Burrowing Blobs were happy to burrow their way from place to place. King Chiki Chiki was especially happy. The Queen had just given birth to twins! But this happiness wasn't going to last. One dark night, a bunch of grimy, gloomy creatures decided they had had enough of peace and happiness, and attacked Alurea! Suddenly, Alurea was filled with monsters of all kinds! Alurea's remaining hope was King Chiki Chiki's twin sons. The people of Alurea hoped that when they became old enough, they would defeat the monsters and bring peace back to their land. The Chiki Chiki Boys have grown up, and are ready to fight the monsters that have taken over Alurea. But they're going to need your skills to help them get through the dangers that are waiting.

After you press the Start Button, you'll see a screen with the two Chiki Chiki Boys on it. The Chiki Chiki Boys are very special twins. Born exactly 32.2 seconds apart, these boys are the pride of the Kingdom of Alurea. The older of the two is a master swordsman, like his father King Chiki Chiki, so he can defeat enemies more easily than his younger brother. The younger twin takes after his mother, who was very good at magic, so he can carry 5 Magical Orbs, while his brother can only carry three. Move the D-Pad left or right to light up the Chiki Chiki Boy of your choice, then press any button to choose. Once you make your choice, you'll see the Name screen. After you choose your warrior, you should give him a name. You can make a name up to four characters long. Move the cursor with the D-Pad and select the character by pressing any button. If you make a mistake, just select "Back" and move the flashing underliner to the letter you want to change, move the cursor to the new character with the D-Pad, and select it with any button. After you've entered the four characters, the cursor will automatically highlight "End." Press any button to see the Round Select screen. If you don't want to worry about picking a name, let the Earth Goddess choose one. Put the cursor on "Name" and press any button. The goddess will name the Chiki Chiki Boy for you! Next you'll see the Round Select screen. You have to pick where you'll start your adventures. Pick Round 1, 2 or 3 by moving the D-Pad, and that Round will light up. Once you pick a Round, press any button to start playing. THE BATTLE BEGINS Once you pick a round, the game will start. There are 2 parts to the game. The first part has 3 rounds, where you pick the order of play. Once you finish these first rounds, you go on to face the creatures of Monster Castle. Each round you enter has only one exit, and a lot of nasty creatures standing, crawling, swimming, and floating in your way. At the end of each round is also a special Monster Menace who has been sent by the head of Monster Castle just to stop you! COINS The land of Alurea is a very rich place, filled with all kinds of treasures. Your Chiki Chiki warrior can find Coins floating around here and there. You can also get Coins, Capsules or Bonus Stars inside Treasure Chests...if you can find them. Unfortunately, the Treasure Chests are hidden away, so the only thing to do is to swing your sword around until you hit one. Once the treasure Chest appears, it falls to the ground. Hit it with your sword again to open it, and walk past it to get what's inside. Be careful, though, 'cause sometimes the stuff inside isn't friendly! Also, you can find Coin Fountains. These special places will send Coins into the air when you swing your sword. Just stand underneath to catch the Coins. How do you find these places? Swing your sword and see! Another way to collect Coins is by fighting the monsters roaming around in Alurea. Every time you defeat a monster, a Coin drops out of it. All you have to do is walk, jump, swim or fly past the Coin to get it. The more Coins you have, the more things you can buy in the Shop, so save up! NOTE: If you lose a Life, you lose 1/2 of your Coins. BUYING ITEMS AND WEAPONS The boys start off their adventures with a sword, a shield, and some Magic Orbs. At the end of each Round, they enter a Shop. In the Shop, they can buy better Items and replace Magical Orbs and Continues. Here's an explanation of what you see in the Shop: Magical Orb: Whatever kind of Magic Weapon your warrior is using, you need Magical Orbs for power. No orbs, no magic! If you picked the older Chiki Chiki Boy, you can carry as many as 3 Orbs. If you picked this Item, you'll see the energy in your Life Meter increase. Blue Capsule: This restores some of your Life Meter's energy. It's cheaper than the Red Capsule, but doesn't give you back as much energy. If you pick this Item, you'll see the energy in your Life meter increase. Red Capsule: This restores all of your energy(unless you are carrying the Power Shield). Watch your Life Meter fill up to the very top! Power Sword: This is a much stronger sword than your first one, so you can defeat your enemies faster! Once you've bought a Power Sword, the next time you enter an Items Shop, you'll be able to buy a Battler Sword. This sword is even stronger than the Power Sword. And the next sword...? Power Shield: This shield protects your Chiki Chiki Boy from attack much better than the one he starts out with! Once you buy the Power Shield, you can get an Ace Shield at the next Item Shop. This amazing shield actually increases your Life Meter's size! Save up your money, because you may need it for an even stronger shield later on! Continue: In the land of Alurea, Chiki Chikis only have 2 lives. If this Item is flashing, it means you only have one Life left, and that you should buy another one. If you don't, you're risking everything you're fighting for. If you haven't lost a Life, this Item will be dark, which means you can't buy it. Once you're finished with your purchases, highlight Exit with the Pointer and press a button to get back to the action! GAME OVER/CONTINUE If your Chiki Chiki Boy loses all the energy in his Life Meter, he waves a white flag, and then he waves a white flag, and then the Continue screen appears. If you want to play again, press the Start Button before the timer reaches zero, and you'll start the game again from where you were defeated. If you don't have any Lives left, the words "Game Over" appear, followed by the Sega logo and the Title screen. Chiki Chiki Boys Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Whether you're floating, swimming or just walking, make sure to stay near the center of the screen. You never can tell where the monsters are going to come from! * Swing your sword wherever you can, because there are lots of treasure chests hidden in the land of Alurea. * Make sure you don't get too greedy in dangerous areas. If you lose all the Energy from your Life Meter, you lose 1 life and 1/2 of your Coins. If you want to get to the end of the game, you'll need your Lives more than you'll need a few Coins. LEVEL WALKTHROUGH: Round 1: The Earth Callia: Go right past the trees, jump across the platforms, and you'll reach the boss at the far right.

Round 3: Part 2: Proceed right, enter the boat and continue right breaking through the wooden blockades with your sword. Eventually, at the top and to the right, you'll find the exit to the boat that leads to the boss. Manta Ray Boss: Hit him when he is moving up and down. Watch out when he stops moving, because he'll charge directly at you. Keep hitting him until defeated. After the first time, he will move back to the right and you'll have to defeat him the same way you did the first time. Round 4: Battle Stage 1 (Discovery of Monster Castle): Start out by going right, jumping from platform to platform. At the far right, you'll find the exit. Round 4: Battle Stage 1 (Part 2): Start out by going right and use the wall climb technique. Continue right over another wall, keep going right and eventually you'll reach a fairy. Continue righ to the boss. Turtle Dragon Boss: Defeat him the same way you beat him the first time. The only difference is that this time he shoots 5 fireballs instead of 3. Round 4: Battle Stage 1 (Part 3): You'll immediately meet a fairy. Keep going right, jumping form platform to platform and eventually you'll reach a line of clouds. Go right across the clouds to find the boss. Bean Boss: First, he drops down green bean men. Then he'll attack you with yellow bean men. Finally, he will attack you as himself. When he jumps, run under him to avoid being hit. As he lands, hit him with your sword until he's defeated. Round 5: Battle Stage 2 (Invasion of Monster Castle): Start out by hitting the monsters that come out of the castle's mouth. Then you'll want to hit it in the nose above the mouth to enter the castle through its mouth. Once inside, defeat all the enemies to proceed downward to the next room. In this room, you'll face the lobster boss again. Defeat him the same way you did the first time. After you defeat the lobster, you'll be able to go down to the next room. In this room, you'll face a boss. Bouncing Ball Boss: He'll appear where the bubbles originated from. Keep hitting him as he bounces (sometimes he'll spit out enemies).

Keep going right, hitting the Gargoyle heads to avoid the fire that comes out of their mouths. Eventually, all the way to the right, you'll face the Boss.

Round 5: Battle Stage 3 (Part 2): Continue right and swing your sword on the gargoyle heads to get over to the other side. Proceed right and you'll meet the Boss. Curacula Boss: You can only hit him when he opens his bat cape. Sometimes bats will fly out. Eventually, he'll fly down to the ground and move left or right (jump over him at this point). Repeat the pattern until you defeat him. (NOTE: don't catch his shorts or you won't get any money). Round 5: Battle Stage 4 (Into the Sky): As you fly up, defeat the enemies and try to avoid the slow spike missile. Continue up, and defeat the gold bats (NOTE: in the the mouths of the statues you'll find treasure chests). Eventually, you'll face the Scorpion boss. Defeat him the same way you defeated him the first time you fought. Finally, you'll pass an area of flames in a cloud area. Keep going right and you'll face the boss. Tank Boss: Stand on the bottom platform, and constantly swing your sword with repeated strikes to destroy the tank portion of the boss. He'll now bounce towards you swinging his pick-axe. When he gets close to you, time it so that the pick-axe misses you. Keep hitting him until you defeat him. Round 5: Battle Stage 5 (Top of Monster Castle): Start out by quickly jumping your way up to the top (if you go slow, you'll get burned by the gargoyles). Once you reach the very top, you'll enter a tower. Go right and face the boss. Riepotman Boss: First, watch out for the green flying Turtle Gunner. After you defeat him, the actual boss will fight you. Hit him as he appears, and avoid his fire rings. Also, while you're fighting him, hit the greeen throne he was sitting on to get the "final key". Keep hitting him until he's defeated. Round 6: Escape to Paradise: Start out by running down to the bottom where you will find the exit. A cloud will whisk you away and take you to the princess. On this stage, collect a lot of money. Then, you will automatically fall down to the Home Kingdom to once again face the Villainy of Riepotman. Riepotman (Giant Clown Balloon): Constantly hit the balloon and hit the fire rings to avoid being hit. Keep hitting him until he's gone!

Clue Parker Brothers To return to Now Playing, reset your adapter. CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME CHARACTERS HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Clue Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text In Clue, you'll assume the identity of one of the famous Clue suspects, then move through the Boddy Mansion collecting clues as to who killed Mr. Boddy. Whether you're a rank Amateur, or you've elevated your rank to Gumshoe, Sleuth, P.I., or full-fledged Detective, you're bound to enjoy this game. To succeed, you've got to ask the right questions, collect the right information, and make the right deductions in order to solve the mystery. Unlike other games, each Clue game depends on a lot more than blind luck to win. So get out your Detective Notepad and start sleuthing. When you've collected enough evidence to prove which Suspect, Weapon and Room were involved in the crime, you'll have the answer! Clue Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text The Controller Start: To begin the game. A Button: To select options or move to the next screen if there are no options. B Button: To un-select, and to re-start a Suggestion, Interrogation or Accusation if you made a wrong selection. C Button: Hold it down and use the D-Pad to view the entire board on screen. D-Pad: To move the cursor through different options. NOTE: There will be brief instructions and reminders on screen while you're playing. Clue Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Your Assignment Moving through the Boddy Mansion, you will enter various Rooms in order to make "Suggestions" and collect circumstantial evidence about exactly what was happening at the time of the murder. You are trying to ascertain which three cards are not in any player's possession: THEY are the solution to the mystery. Twice during the game, when you're close to the solution, you may hold an "Interrogation" to prove the innocence of a person, place or thing, so that you can eliminate it from your suspicions. Once-and only once-you may make your "Accusation" and state, for all to hear, Who did it, with What, and Where. If you're correct, you win! Taking Your Turn Use the D-Pad to move through the following options, then press the A Button to select one. If you change your mind, press the B Button to pick a different option. The screen will only reveal options that "legal" at the time; you will never be able to make an illegal move! NOTE: The black box shows what you see on-screen. Hold down the C Button and use the D-Pad to scroll around the entire playing board and check where the other players are before you make your move. Roll the Die... When the hand appears, hold down the A Button to shake the die. (Your alternative is to Take a Secret Passage; see below.) Release it to stop the roll. Use the D-Pad to move your token (it's flashing, so you can spot it) that number of spaces; the red dots will show your tracks. NOTES: * You may move your token horizontally, vertically, forwards or backwards (but not diagonally). You may change directions as many times as your roll will allow. * You may retrace your steps to un-do part of a move. * You may never land on a square occupied by another token. If you come up to another player's token, move AROUND it! If at any time you are blocked by another player and can't finish your move, press Start to end your turn. * When Entering a Room, you do not have to land in a Room by exact count. A door does not count as a space. You may not re-enter a room on the same turn. Take a Secret Passage If you select this option instead of rolling, you will automatically be moved to the room at the other end of the passage, where you may make a Suggestion. (You don't roll the die). To Make a Suggestion Once you've entered a Room, make a Suggestion in order to collect a clue. Who did it? Use the D-Pad and the B Button to suggest a Suspect (you may, of course, name yourself). Note that the person you suggest, other than yourself, is automatically pulled into the Room with you. With What? Next, select a Weapon. (You've already selected the Room by virtue of being there!) For example: "I suggest the crime was committed by Mr. Green with the Knife in the Dining Room." Now sit back, hit the A Button, and get the clue! The animated sequence will reveal a clue, and the written message will confirm it. Depending on the play level, it might say "Mr. Green had the Wrench." If you are holding the Mr. Green card-so you know he wasn't the murderer-then you now know that the murder could not have been committed with the Wrench! Remember, all players get the same clue at the same time. Press the A Button to end the vignette. NOTES: * After entering one of the Rooms, you may make only one Suggestion. To make another, you must wait until another turn where you are in a different Room. Sometime after your next turn, you could also re-enter the Room you most recently left. You may not forfeit a turn to stay in a particular spot. * If another player included you in a Suggestion, you will find yourself in the "suggested" Room at the start of your next turn! You may either move out of it in one of the usual ways, or you may make a Suggestion from that Room. If the latter, you do not roll the die or move your token. You only need to select the Suggestion option and proceed. * There is no limit to the number of Suspects that may be in one Room at the same time. * If you make a mistake entering the Suspect or Weapon, and you catch your error before the curtain rises on the vignette, hit B and re-start your Suggestion. To Conduct an Interrogation Each player may make an Interrogation only twice during a game. When you made a Suggestion, you were looking for circumstantial evidence-what or who was where at the time of the murder. In an Interrogation, the innocence of a person, place or thing will be proved by the system, as it searches all player's hands. The game then lets you know if another player can prove (by virtue of having been dealt that card) that one of the three elements of your Interrogation was not involved in the murder. To make your Interrogation, use the D-Pad to select one item from each screen: Suspect, Weapon and Room. The system will show you an enactment of your Interrogation and prove or disprove one aspect of it. Example: Mrs. White might say, "Wait! I am certain it could not have been Mrs. Peacock. I have proof." This means that the player who is Mrs. White was dealt the Mrs. Peacock card-so he or she has "proof" it could not have been Peacock! Remember, quickly press B to re-start your Interrogation and change a selection before the curtain rises. Press A to progress through the vignettes. If you want, you may now immediately make an Accusation-but you'd better be sure you've got it right! Otherwise, wait until your next turn. To Make An Accusation When you think you've solved the mystery, you may, on your turn, make an Accusation. You may do this only once! If you're right, you win the game. If you're wrong, you're out! To make an Accusation, select Who, What and Where and announce that "It was (Suspect) with the (Weapon) in the (Room)." The system will let you know if you're right-or wrong! If you were Miss Scarlet, as shown above, your Accusation was not correct. You've lost your chance to win, and you take no more turns yourself. But your character is still involved in other players' Suggestions, and others may still move you into locations where they make Suggestions. Remember... * To make a Suggestion, you must be in the Room you name. * You may make only two Interrogations per game. * To make an Interrogation or an Accusation, you may name any Room without actually being in that place. * As long as the curtain has not gone up on a vignette, you may press B and re-start your Accusation and change it. * Press A to progress through the vignettes. Winning The first player who correctly identifies the Suspect, Weapon and Room, wins. Clue Characters Use Up/Down to scroll text The Usual Suspects Colonel Mustard: Colonel Mustard, late of the Bengal Lancers, held regimental honors as a marksman with both elephant gun and small caliber pistol. After he was mustered out, the Colonel traveled halfway around the world to see Mr. Boddy on a matter of grave importance. But why does Mustard sleep with a revolver under his pillow? Mrs. Peacock: After single-handedly saving the loggerhead shrike from extinction, ornithologist Peacock turned her beady eye on the pied-bill grebe. Spotting a pair nesting near the manor house, she has come to beseech Mr. Boddy to donate his entire estate to her to create a bird sanctuary. Does Mrs. P. have her eye on more than the grebe? Professor Plum: Professor Plum, Ph.D., head of Archaeology at a correspondence school, came to the manor to solicit financing for a bone-hunting expedition. He knows just where to unearth a prehistoric skeleton to rival the Piltdown Man-he says he can feel it in his bones. But why does the Professor clam up whenever anyone digs into his past? Miss Scarlet: Called the Mercenary of Macao-but never to her face-the sultry and sinister Scarlet will entertain any proposition that makes her a profit. After reading a how-to piece in Fortune Hunters Quarterly, she decided to try her hand at gold digging. But could the price of gold be murder? Mr. Green: Mr. Green, reputed kingpin in the "family" business, is a whiz at the numbers, but he finds himself dangerously short of cash at the moment. He figured he'd get out of the jam with Mr. Boddy's help. Did he make him an offer he couldn't refuse? Mrs. White: The maid at Boddy Mansion since before the War-she won't divulge which one-Mrs. White has seen 'em come and go. Trouble is, she's seen 'em when and where they weren't supposed to be comin' and goin'. Did she finally spy something that made her see red? Clue Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text 1. Making Suggestion: You may want to name one or more of your own cards in order to gain information...or mislead your opponents. 2. Sneaky Move: If an opponent's token appears to be heading to an important Room, on your turn you may want to block that player, or include that person's character in a Suggestion in order to move him or her away from that Room.

You don't get to the NCAA Tournament semifinals seven times in nine years without some serious coaching skills. So when EA SPORTS decided to make a college basketball game, we thought it would be a good idea to call on Mike Krzyzewski(pronounced Sha-shef-ski) of Duke for assistance-what Coach K doesn't know about college ball you could fit on the head of a pin. The result of this collaboration is Coach K College Basketball, a game for all fans of college basketball. You can play it as a serious simulation, or you can play it as a not-so-simple arcade game. Coach K is designed to be as flexible as possible. For instance, you can completely control your playcalling and substitution patterns, or let the computer call the plays and sub players while you pound the buttons in an all-out slam-o-rama. Whichever style you prefer, you're in for some serious fun-so whaddya waiting for? Read on!

First, the GAME INTRODUCTION screen announces the teams and home court. Press Start to continue. The MATCHUPS screen appears. The MATCHUPS screen compares the two teams. One to three basketballs indicate strength in each of five categories: Overall, Scoring, Rebounds, Ball Control, and Defense. Press Start to go to the tip-off. THE TIP-OFF Every game starts with a tip-off between the centers. To jump for the tip-off, press C when the ball is in the air. PLAYING THE GAME You control the man over the star. Depending on which controller you're using, the star has a different color: Player 1: Red star Player 2: Blue star Player 3: Green star Player 4: Yellow star Computer: Gray star Just like the real college game, offense and defense require different skills in Coach K College Basketball. While the D-Pad is always used to move your player, the buttons have different functions on offense and defense. If your player is offscreen, an arrow the same color as your control star points toward him from the edge of the screen. D-Pad in the opposite direction to bring him back onscreen. When PLAYER STAR from the Set Options menu is set to POSITION(the default), you can tell which player you control by the text under his star. 1G and 2G are guards, 3F and 4F are forwards, and 5C is the center. OFFENSE MOVING WITH AND WITHOUT THE BALL Press the D-Pad in the direction that you want to move. You continue to move and dribble as long as you hold down the D-Pad. When you release the D-Pad, you stop moving, but maintain your dribble. When you start to pass or shoot the ball, you stop dribbling. Once you stop dribbling, you cannot use the D-Pad to move again, or the refs call traveling. To run faster, hold down A while moving. This kicks you into Turbo mode, where you may be able to catch another player from behind or drive to the bucket more effectively. To perform post-up moves, you must catch a pass when you are stationary in the low post area. When you D-Pad, the player swivels on his pivot foot rather than running and dribbling. To move normally again, press A + D-Pad. PASSING To pass to the closest receiver, press B. To retain control of the passer(perfect for give and go plays), hold B until the receiver catches the ball. To pass to a specific player, use the D-Pad to aim the pass while pressing B. To call for a pass when you don't have the ball, press C. If a computer-controlled player has the ball, he passes it to you. If your buddy has the ball, C has no effect. To throw an alley-oop pass, throw the ball to a player with a clear path to the basket. If he's in a position to jump for an alley-oop(and has the ability to make the play), an alley-oop is automatically executed. SHOOTING Players shoot differently depending on who and where they are. For instance, when shooting from the outside, the player will try a jump shot. Closer in, and he may try a hook shot. Near the hoop he'll try one of a variety of layups or slams(and yes, you can break the backboard with a monster dunk). To shoot, press and hold C. Release the ball at the top of your jump by releasing the button. To fake a shot, tap C. FREE THROWS When a player goes to the free throw line, the perspective changes to a view from behind the shooter, and the T-Meter appears so you can aim your shot. The ball moves left/right on the horizontal bar to control the left/right accuracy of your shot. 1. Press A, B, or C when the ball is in the center of the bar to aim your shot. The ball moves up/down on the vertical bar to control the distance of your free throw. 2. Press A, B, or C when the ball is in the center of the vertical bar to set the distance of your shot. The player shoots the ball, and normal play resumes. The speed the basketball travels on the bars of the T-Meter is controlled by the player's Free Throw rating-the better the rating, the slower the ball travels. Playcalling You can assign three different sets and/or specific plays for both offense and defense from the COACHING OPTIONS menu, and then call them on the fly during the game. To call the set/play assigned to A, B, or C, press and hold Start, then press A, B, or C and release Start. DEFENSE You may be able to put points on the board, but remember, championship teams always play tough D. Switching Defenders You can switch to the defender nearest the ball at any time, assuming he isn't controlled by another human player. To take control of the defender closest to the ball(between the ball and basket), press B. To take control of a specific defender, D-Pad in the direction of the defender and press B. Steals When you're close to the ball handler, your player automatically tries to reach in and steal the ball. To try to steal the ball from an opponent, position yourself in front of the offensive player. You have to be close to the man with the ball to pull off a steal, but don't get too aggressive, or you may get whistled for a foul. Shot Blocking and Rebounding Just as players hoot differently in different situations on offense, defensive players react differently when they jump on defense. If you jump near a player who's shooting, your player tries to block the shot. If you jump near a ball coming off the rim, your player tries to pull in the rebound. To jump to reject a shot or work the glass, press C. PAUSE MENU The Pause menu appears whenever you press Start during a game. You must pause the game to call a time out, make a substitution, or choose from other menu options. The TIME OUT and SUBSTITUTION options are not always available-for instance, you can only make a substitution when the play clock is topped. When options are grayed out, they cannot be selected. Instant Replay When you need to see that backboard-shattering alley-oop one more time, you can replay the last few seconds of game action-backwards, forwards, reverse-angle, you got it. To go to the Replay screen while the game is paused, highlight Replay from the Pause menu and press B. An overlay displaying the game clock and the button functions appears at the bottom of the screen. To move the center of the Replay screen to lock onto a player or the ball, hold B and D-Pad in any direction. To toggle between normal and reverse angle, press A + B. Time Outs You must have possession of the ball to call a time out. The number of time outs remaining is listed after TIME OUT in the Pause menu. You get 5 time outs per game.(If you call a time out after your 5 are exhausted, a technical foul is called and the other team shoots a free throw-but the clock is stopped). Highlight TIME OUT from the Pause menu and press B. The SUBSTITUTION option becomes available, and your team is charged with a time out. Substitution You can make player substitutions when the play clock is stopped between periods, during a time out, or after a violation such as a fouler out of bounds has been called. When the clock is running, the SUBSTITUTION option isn't available. 1. When the clock is stopped, select SUBSTITUTION from the Pause menu. The SUBSTITUTION screen appears. The 5 players currently in the game are listed in the screen. To cycle between game stats, player ratings, and 1993-94 stats, press A/C. To cycle through the available statistics/ratings for the players, D-Pad left/right. 2. To substitute for a player, D-Pad up/down to highlight the player, and press B. A screen listing the available bench players appear. 3. D-Pad up/down to highlight a player, and press B to insert that player into the lineup. If you decide not to make a substitution, press Start to return to the Pause menu. STATISTICS MENU Player Stats Go to PLAYER STATS screen to view statistics for the players in the game. The team you control is shown by default; press B to switch to the other team. To cycle between rating and stat types, press A/C. Note that you can view the STAMINA rating for each player from his screen, so you can check their fatigue factor even if the clock isn't stopped. Team Stats Go to TEAM STATS screen to view both teams' statistics for the current game. User Stats Go to USER STATS screen to view stats(sorted by Controller) for all human players participating in the current game. To cycle between CURRENT GAME, career HISTORY AVG., and career HISTORY TOTAL stats, press A/C. COACHING OPTIONS MENU Coach K College Basketball gives you complete coaching flexibility. By default, the computer calls offensive and defensive plays and sets automatically(based on the real-life tendencies of each team), but you can select your own plays and sets and call them on the fly. OFFENSIVE PLAYS Go to OFFENSIVE PLAYS screen to set playcalling and offensive strategy. You can have the computer automatically choose sets and plays, or you can choose 3 sets/plays to call during the action. AUTO SWITCH Toggle auto switching Y/N. When set to Y, the computer chooses offensive sets and plays automatically(but you can still call your own plays when you want). When set to N, you call all your plays manually, and any play or set you call is run until you call another. Crash Boards Go after offensive rebounds aggressively if Y, and get back on defense if N. OFFENSIVE SETS AND PLAYS Eleven offensive sets are available in Coach K College Basketball, and each set contains from 3-8 plays. To highlight an offensive set, D-Pad up/down.

SETS AND PLAYS OFFENSIVE SETS Follow the play diagram animations in the OFFENSIVE SETS menu to execute the play. Computer-controlled players move as outlined on the diagram, but you must control the actions of the ball handler. Box The constant slashing, cutting and screening of this offense is geared to get the ball inside to your two post players. The post players will set screens to free themselves inside or free the other players on the wings. The perimeter players must be good passers and work hard to get open. Inside Triangle This set gives you a great inside attack, and allows you to take advantage of mismatches if you have a bigger team. It allows for excellent rebounding position and inside play, and the movement by the inside players creates good post position for the big men inside. Sideline Triangle The Sideline Triangle creates excellent perimeter movement as well as good spacing to take advantage of your inside strength. Constant movement, screening, and cutting make this offense difficult to defend, but offensive rebounding is limited due to the spacing. If you're patient, you're sure to get an open shot or an open seal in the post. Motion This offense provides good floor balance and lots of player movement, which allows you to play to your team's strength. Proper spacing and motion will give you good one-on-one opportunities or open shots. If you're predictable with your movement, however, defenses will shut you down. UCLA Highpost This longtime favorite covers just about every option you need-a low post seal, a cutter, a screen for shooters, and opportunities for all the players due to the outstanding spacing. This offense is predictable, but when properly executed still works as well as it did for its originator, the legendary Coach Wooden. Three Point If you've got the shooters, you can score points in a hurry with this set, which is set up to get you the open trey. The three-point shot helps break down a zone by forcing the other team to extend their defense. It also leads to long rebounds and an up-tempo game for your opponent. Double High This offense temporarily takes your post layers away from the hoop, where they set screens for the perimeter players and/or each other. After setting screens, the post players slash to the low post. They must be able to shoot in this offense, and due to their poor rebounding position, they need to crash the boards to get any rebounds. The offense's strength lies in crating jump shots for your perimeter players off of screens. Wheel The Wheel Offense is effective for teams with quick perimeter players. In order to succeed, though, you need excellent cutters and screeners who can break down defenders one-on-one. You also need proper floor balance and post players with good rebounding skills, as the post players may not be near the basket when a shot is taken. This offense creates open shots and/or players in good scoring position. Flex The Flex set creates excellent movement, with all five players playing each of the five positions on offense. Strong cuts and good screens are essential for creating open shots and wearing down the defense. The Flex will bring big defenders away from the basket and may create mismatches, but be sure you have shooters who can hit the fifteen foot jumper to succeed with this offense. 4 Around 1 This offense takes advantage of a strong post player by surrounding him with the other four players and working the ball until he gets open. Good spacing is created for the other players to drive and then dish inside or kick the ball back out for a three. Isolation Isolation is a great offense for getting the ball to a dominant player, a hot player, or someone guarded by a weak defender. By isolating a player one-on-one, you can take advantage of your strengths and your opponent's weaknesses. However, good defensive teams will double-team and rotate players to compensate for the isolation you've set up. DEFENSIVE SETS Full Court In a Full Court Press you play pressure man-to-man defense over the entire court. Try to deny the inbound play, and then is the ball is inbounded, get all over the ball handler. If your team doesn't have excellent conditioning and quickness, you'll give up easy scores. Use this defense when you're trying to get back into a game-it can create turnovers and quick points for your team. 3/4 Court In this man-to-man defense, your players pick up their man at the opponent's three-point line and use pressure to force the offense to work to get the ball over the halfcourt line. As with Full Court, your players need to be quick and in shape of the game or if you're behind and need to create turnovers. Half Trap Two defenders try to trap the ball handler at half court and force him to give up the ball to someone else, while the other defenders try to shut down the passing lanes. this gives the defense a chance for a turnover, as well as taking the ball out of the hands of the primary ball handler. However, you risk giving up easy shots if the ball handler beats the trap. Half Court In this pressure defense, defenders pick up their man at the half court line, forcing the other team to start their offense far away from the basket. This defense will hurt you if you can't contain the ball handler, and is also weak for rebounding purposes. Quarter Court Your team retreats quickly to play tough man-to-man defense inside the three-point line. This is an excellent defense for defending teams that fast break. It's probably the most widely-used defense in college ball, and different teams play it with different degrees of intensity depending on their style or defensive ability. Man to Man When this set is called, the computer automatically selects from the five man-to-man sets. 3-2 Zone In this zone, three players guard the perimeter, leaving two players to defend close to the hoop. It's very effective at stopping three-point shooters, but is weak at defending down low and rebounding. Use this zone if you must play a zone against a team with good outside shooting but poor inside play. 2-3 Zone This zone defense provides strong back line defense and rebounding, but is weak when it comes to defending shooters on the wings. The top two defenders really have to work to deny open shots. Use this zone if your opponent has poor shooters and a strong inside game. 2-3 Zone Ext. The Extended 2-3 Zone or Match Up defense is similar to the 2-3 except that the back line usually sends its ball-side forward to contest the wing, denying open shots but leaving the basket more vulnerable. The guards must rotate down to help rebound. This defense helps stop great players, but won't usually hold up for a long period of time. 1-3-1 Zone This defense is strong at the point and wing positions, where teams tend to place their shooters. It also guards the high post and basket well, but its weakness is the baseline jumper. Make sure you rotate quickly, as the weak side wings must help the low post defenders rebound as well as defend the basket. 1-2-1-1 Trap This full court defense can be used to get back into a game or challenge the ball handling and decision-making of the opponent's ball handlers. It attacks and traps the first pass. If you don't get a steal or turnover on the first pass, retreat quickly to prevent an easy basket. This set takes some time to set up-try it after a made free throw. 1-2-2 Trap The goal of this set is to get the ball out of the point guard's hands. The ball is forced to the sideline, where you can trap along the side. You can slow down a fast breaking team by forcing them to think about breaking the press instead of running. Use this set to help change the tempo of a game. 2-2-1 Trap This zone press is ideal for slowing teams down-it's more of a retreating zone press than an attacking press. The goal is not to force turnovers but to use up the shot clock by forcing the offense to make cross-court passes to advance the ball past half court. Coach K College Basketball Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * When a player's star is pulsing, he's on a Hot Streak, and his shooting ratings are boosted. * When FATIGUE is ON, Turbo mode wears out your players in a hurry, so use it sparingly. * When passing, look for the player with his hand raised. * Passing is the quickest way to move the ball on the court. Rotate the ball from strong to weak side, and then shoot quickly before the defenders recover. * You'll increase the probability of making a shot if you get your feet set before you shoot. * If the SHOT CONTROL setting in the Set Options menu is set to MANUAL, you'll have a better chance of making your shot if you release the ball at the top of your jump. * If you press B before you release C, you can still pass the ball after you leave your feet to shoot. * Even when playing a zone defense, your first rule should be to stop the ball. To stop easy penetration, get a man in front of the ball handler before he reaches the top of the key. * You can make more steals if you double-team the player with the ball. * Track the STAMINA rating for your players throughout the game-when a player's bar turns orange or red, sub for him as soon as possible. * The plays and sets are guidelines, but the players aren't robots-you make the play happen. We've drawn the X's and O's, but it's up to you to orchestrate your team. * To create more steals, try setting DEF PRESSURE to H(high) when using a trapping defense.

CONTRAHC.O

Contra: Hard Corps Konami To return to Now Playing, reset your adapter. CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME ENEMIES HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Contra: Hard Corps Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text A NEW BREED ARISES Five years had passed since the Alien Wars, and mankind was slowly beginning to recover. Nevertheless, civilization was still in turmoil. The extreme concentration of people and goods in the few areas that escaped devastation during the fighting had turned the cities into hotbeds of crime. Worse, the rapid development of genetic engineering and cyborg technologies during the war has spawned a new, fearsome type of crime unimaginable before the conflict. To combat this threat, the government set up a special team of elite troops, the "Unified Military Special Mobile Task Force." Taking the name of the heroes who had saved the planet during the Alien Wars, the public called them the "HARD CORPS." It's the holiday season. The chaotic city festively decorated, its citizens looked for a respite from the usual hustle and bustle. But unknown to the populace, the forces of evil were using this otherwise peaceful moment to advance their dark plans. Someone infiltrates the city's defense computer complex and unmanned weapons begin to run amuck on the streets, attacking the populace at random. Receiving orders to destroy these rampaging machines, the HARD CORPS heads out. But this was to prove to be only the opening chapter in their fight against an enormous conspiracy of evil. Contra: Hard Corps Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text CONTROLS Basic Controls D-Pad: * Controls player movement and weapon aim Button A: * Weapons select(also works when the game is paused) Button B: * Shoots weapon Button C: * Jump Hold B and press A: * Toggles between shot types. * Type 1: Player can move while firing. * Type 2: Player cannot move while firing. The functions of the A, B, and C Buttons can be reassigned through the Options Menu. Special Controls Moving on walls and ceilings: Your character can climb walls and move along ceilings. You can even shoot while hanging on to a wall or ceiling, but you cannot move while firing(except for Brad Fang's Power Punch or Psychic Blaster). Sliding: Simultaneously pressing the C Button and diagonally down on the D-Pad will make your character slide. You cannot take damage while sliding, and you can use it as an attack on enemies. Jumping Down: Pressing straight down on the D-Pad + pressing the C Button while on a moving object or while grabbing a ceiling or wall will cause your character to jump down. Conversation scenes: During the game, after clearing stages and at other points, characters will appear and force you to make a decision of some kind. Use the D-Pad to select your command, and the C Button confirms your selection. During conversations, the B Button scrolls the message. Contra: Hard Corps Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Weapons The Hard Corps are always equipped with a machine gun, but you can pick up other weapons during play. Additional weapons may appear when you destroy the flying item pods, or by defeating certain enemies. There are four additional weapons available to each character. These weapons are different depending on the character you have selected. When a character dies, you lose the weapon that they were using at the time. When the game ends, you lose all your extra weapons and must restart play with just the machine gun. Weapon Descriptions These vary for each character. See the following character profiles for various weapon descriptions. Bombs: Bombs damage all the enemies on the screen at the time they are used, but can only be used once. You can carry more than one bomb at a time. The Contra Hard Corps Ray Poward Born and raised among the filth and pestilence of the city's slum, Ray at one time was the leader of a bunch of rowdy, delinquent youths. Recruited by the HARD CORPS for his unsurpassed combat skills and superb instincts, his cool exterior hides a burning lust for battle. Ray is a central figure in the HARD CORPS. Weapon A: * Vulcan Laser-A short-range, rapidfiring laser gun. Weapon B: * Crash-Hits an enemy, or explodes after flying a certain distance. Weapon C: * Spread-Fires in five directions at once!

Weapon B: * Shower Crash-Shells rain down and explode. Weapon C: * Break Laser-A powerful, long-range laser. Shoots through enemies! Weapon D: * Ax Laser-A wide-beam homing laser. Brad Fang The ultimate fighter-created using the latest in genetic engineering and cyborg technology. Always calm and collected, he is well-trusted by the members of the force. He is best at close-range, hand-to-hand combat. Weapon A: * Beast Shooter-A Vulcan cannon with devastating power. Weapon B: * Power Punch-Damage enemies with hurricane-force winds created by the speed of his punch! Weapon C: * Flame Thrower-Short range, but it incinerates everything nearby. Weapon D: * Psychic Blaster-Holding the button down stores up Brad's psychic power. Releasing it shoots a beam of mental energy. The longer you hold, the stronger the blast!

Weapon B: * Gemini Scatter-Returns like a boomerang. Weapon C: * Electromagnetic Yo-Yo-Holding the button down causes it to automatically attack the enemy.

Tous les jours, son client prÈfÈrÈ vient manger et il a gros appÈtit! Maigrebleu doit prendre sa commande et chercher la nourriture dans le casse-cro˚te. Lorsque Maigrebleu lui apporte sa commande, le client lui donne en rÈcompense une belle Ètoile jaune! ¿ la fin de la journÈe, lorsque Maigrebleu a accumulÈ cinq Ètoiles, il joue ‡ cache-cache avec le singe.

Un morceau apparaÓt sur son plateau. (Pour avoir un autre morceau, sautez encore une fois.) 3. Continuez pour trouver toute la nourriture commandÈe par le client, puis bougez Maigrebleu vers la gauche pour retourner ‡ la salle ‡ manger. Le client commande cinq repas par jour : le petit dÈjeuner, une collation, le dÓner, le souper et le dessert. Il y a six jours en tout. Le jour 1 est le plus facile, puis chaque jour devient plus compliquÈ, alors faites bien attention! On se trompe? Si vous vous trompez dans la commande, le client vous rÈpËte ce qu'il veut.

Il mange toute votre nourriture (si vous en avez) et remplit vos ÈtagËres. Des tours de magie! Certains amis de Maigrebleu ne savent pas additionner ou soustraire. Mumford le Magicien et Sam le Robot transforment la nourriture sur le plateau de Maigrebleu. Ils peuvent transformer une tarte en banane ou un steak en biscuit. Cela vous aidera si vous ne rÈussissez pas ‡ trouver la bonne nourriture. Observez Mumford et Sam pour connaÓtre la nourriture qu'ils peuvent transformer. La premiËre nourriture que vous voyez est celle qu'ils transforment. Puis, vous voyez un nuage de fumÈe. Enfin, vous voyez la nourriture qu'ils ont fait apparaÓtre.

Pour reprendre son Ètoile, Maigrebleu doit courir dehors aprËs le singe et le toucher. Facile? Oh non! Le singe connaÓt toutes les bonnes cachettes. Grimpez sur des Èchelles, sautez sur des nuages, sur des tremplins, sur des pots de fleurs et sur des ascenseurs ou demandez ‡ Pioupiou de vous amener ‡ la cachette du singe.

You struggle with the controls, desperately twisting the ship through the onrushing boulders. But even your practiced skills aren't enough. With a mighty crash, you're hit! Your fighter loses control and swerves into the orbit of a nearby asteroid. Once in the atmosphere, it catches fire and plummets toward the surface. With a tremendous crash, everything goes dark.

As slave cyborgs, you and hundreds of others are forced to work in the computer-controlled munitions factories of the Cydrek Federation.

You're being held against your will ... you're not really a cyborg ... the munitions factory and the Cydrek Federation are incredibly evil. Suddenly it all comes back. You remember the patrol mission, the meteor storm and the crash. You recall the laser surgery that rebuilt the shreds of your body and brain into a mass of metal muscle and electronic skill. And finally, you relive the horror of the memory erase process that kept bleeping "Error" while missing the deepest part of your brain. You're a cyborg with a memory-and a vengeance!

Cyborg Justice Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text A shredded cyborg drops to the dirt and explodes into a blast of flames! This is it-fitting justice for the metallic killers of the Cydrek Federation! In Arcade mode, you'll face wave after wave of deadly attackers. Keep these survival facts in mind: * Strength bars show each combatant's power level. Taking damage shortens the bars. Bash on your opponents, always trying to keep their strength bars shorter than yours. * In 2 Player battles, Player 1's cyborg is marked with a yellow spot, and Player 2's warrior has an orange spot. Player 1's Strength bar is yellow; Player 2's is blue. * Remember, you can gain back strength, while sapping your enemy's, with the waist-latch attack or by gaining the enemy's torso. * Your remaining number of lives is shown next to your Strength bar. When your strength disappears, you lose one life. If you lose your last life, the cyborg war ends and the Cydrek Federation triumphs. * In 2 Player combat, one player can borrow lives from the other. If you lose all your lives, but your buddy has two or more lives left, you can press Start to revive. Watch for the "Press Start" message in your Strength bar. * If your torso is ripped off, you'll lose all your lives in one blow. * Watch for the flash in your opponent's eyes. It means you're level with him and in perfect striking range. Give him your best flying kick, tackle or body slam! * Dodge the random missiles! Or lure an opponent into position, then jump and let the missile hit him! * Force attackers into Death Traps to drain their strength. Avoid the traps yourself like a bad case of metal fatigue! Hint: Big Foot legs are immune to Death Traps. * After firing your Launch hand, make sure you pick it up. * You can move right, left, up, down or stand still. Of these five positions, one of them is always fatal. Keep moving!

Smoke from a thousand goblin torches burns your lungs. The goblins scream at you, waving the heads of your fallen comrades on the ends of spears. Weeks of fighting saw hundreds of men and goblins die in battle throughout the duke's lands. Now all that remains is the duke's castle, and soon that will fall. With blood-curdling shrieks, the goblins launch one last assault on the castle. Goblins swarm over the walls, slaughtering the weakened defenders. You raise your sword for a final blow, but then FLASH! a brilliant flare of light blinds you. Deafening thunder drowns out the screams of goblins and men alike. There's a wrenching feeling and you're falling, certain that you'll die on the cobbled streets below. Then it suddenly stops. You open your eyes and gasp as you look around. The castle is now in a strange land, a highwalled valley illuminated by a red sun. The goblins are gone, but you and your remaining comrades are miraculously alive! You have been spared certain death at the hands of the goblins, but what fate awaits you here? You may not have long to wait for the answer, because the monsters that inhabit this land continually assault the castle. Though all attacks have failed thus far, the monsters are gaining in strength. You must assemble a party of heroes and set out on an epic journey.

D&D Warriors Of The Eternal Sun Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text The DUNGEONS & DRAGONS Game and the World of the Eternal Sun WARRIORS OF THE ETERNAL SUN is set in a world of the DUNGEONS & DRAGONS game. Creatures of legend and nightmare lurk within every shadow-beastmen, wolves, dragons and many other deadly monsters. Your heroes face death at every turn. Only by solving the mysteries of this land can they save their people from certain doom. Your characters find themselves in a strange, red-hued world in which the horizon slopes upward in all directions, eventually vanishing into a crimson haze at the limits of sight. It's as if the castle is at the bottom of a huge bowl whose extent can only be guessed at. Illuminating the landscape is the Eternal Sun-a fiery red orb that stands stationary in the exact center of the sky. The high-walled valley is infested with vast numbers of monsters. Attacks upon the castle walls are thrown back at great cost in lives. It seems only a matter of time before the castle's defenders are overwhelmed. Duke Barrik believes that the only chance of survival lies in finding allies. A group of adventurers is now being assembled. They must explore the deepest recesses of the valley, searching for answers to the mysteries that haunt the duke's sleep. If these heroes fail, your people are doomed! Quick Start The first time you play WARRIORS OF THE ETERNAL SUN, you may want to use the default party to familiarize yourself with the world and the strengths and weaknesses of various characters. You can load the default party by pressing Button A or Button B at the Title/Starting Options screen. You then see a bird's-eye view of a party of four characters standing in the throne room of the duke's castle. Press Start to enter the Camp menu, and then press Button A to enter "Inventory." The following text describes the entries and statistics you see on the character's Inventory screen. Next to each character's portrait are two squares. These show which items a character has readied for combat. A character can have only two items readied at a time. The character information in the upper box is explained in this section. The lower box shows items the character carries (weapons, scrolls and so on) and special abilities and spell powers the character can call upon. Creating a Character Once you're ready to create your own characters, pick "Create a New Party," the second option in the Title/Starting Options screen. The Character Creation screen appears. Use the following procedure to create each of the four characters in your party. When picking each aspect of a character, move the sparkling cursor with the D-Button, then accept the choice by pressing Button A or Button B. Choose the Character's Class The sparkling cursor starts on the portrait of a male cleric. Use the D-Pad to move the cursor to the class you want for this character. The "Choose Class" entry above the character portraits tells you which class the cursor is currently on. Press Button A or Button B to accept the class the cursor is on. There are seven character classes available to your characters in this game. Human characters can be clerics, fighters, magic-users or thieves. There are also three non-human character classes: dwarves, elves and halflings. Dwarves and halflings resemble fighters in many ways, while elves combine many of the abilities of fighters and magic-users. You choose the class to which a character belongs when you create the character. The first four classes are available only to humans. Dwarves, elves and halflings have special racial abilities that set them apart as their own character classes. There are male and female characters for each character class. The sex you choose for each character is totally up to you; it has no effect on game play or the character's abilities. For each character class, the female portrait appears once the male is chosen. To change to a female character, use the D-Button to move the sparkling cursor to her portrait, then press Button A or Button B. Reroll Ability Scores Look at the character's current ability scores. If you're satisfied with them, press Button C to move on to creating the next character. If you want to try for higher scores, move the sparkling cursor to the dice icon next to "Roll Again." Press Button A or Button B until you are satisfied with the character's ability scores, then press Button C to move on to the next character. Ability scores (Strength, Intelligence, Wisdom, Dexterity, Constitution and Charisma) represent a character's proficiency in skills that are important to the success of your party. These scores range from nine to 18. The higher the number, the better the character is at that skill. Strength (STR): Strength affects how well your character hits with melee weapons (hand-held weapons) and how much damage each hit causes. Strength is an important characteristic for fighters, dwarves, elves and halflings. Intelligence (INT): Intelligence is a measure of your character's ability to think, analyze and memorize. This is most important for magic-users and elves. Wisdom (WIS): Wisdom reflects your character's ability to learn from experience. This ability is most important for clerics. Dexterity (DEX): Dexterity measures your character's agility and hand-eye coordination. A high Dexterity decreases your character's armor class, making the character harder to hit in combat. A high Dexterity also makes it easier for a character to hit with missile weapons. Constitution (CON): Constitution reveals how sturdy your character is, including how resistant the character is to the effects of poison. High Constitution scores grant a character extra hit points. Charisma (CHR): Charisma measures how likable your character is, taking into account appearance and personality. Additional Character Information Level: Level is a measure of a character's skill within the chosen character class. Hit points and abilities increase as the character's level increases. HP/Max: The first number is the character's current number of hit points (HP); the number after the slash is the character's maximum number of hit points. A character's hit points measure how much damage the character can take. When a character suffers damage, the current hit points decrease. After resting or being healed, the character's current hit points increase, but never above the maximum. When a character gains a new level, the current and maximum hit point numbers increase. AC: The lower the armor class number, the harder it is to hit the character. Armor class depends on the armor the character is wearing, whether the character has a shield, and the character's Dexterity. A character can use only one set of armor and one shield at a time. The best armor and shield are automatically used if the character has more than one. Nxt Lvl: This category tells how many more experience points (XP) the character needs to reach the next level. As characters defeat monsters, gain gold and reach certain goals, they gain experience points and their "Nxt Lvl" numbers decrease. Once a character's "Nxt Lvl" number reaches zero, the character gains a level. Gold: This entry tells how many gold pieces the character has accumulated. This loot can be spent on new equipment, spells and other items. Exploring the Castle Within the walls of Duke Barrik's castle are many areas for your characters to explore. In the throne room itself, each of the towers holds something of interest. The duke's chief advisor, Marmillian, resides in one of these towers. Your characters should visit the shops outside the throne room to purchase equipment and arm themselves with weapons and spells before investigating the towers. Talk to the people in the castle (your heroes must stop moving to talk to these characters). Even the simple things they say may help prepare your party for the dangers that await outside (and inside) the castle. Be sure to talk to the duke and Marmillian in the throne room. On the eastern side of the castle, be sure to visit the shrine and the tower in the shrine's graveyard. When a character reaches zero hit points, go to the shrine for healing. In between the throne room and the shrine are a number of shops where the characters can purchase equipment. Purchasing Equipment There are several shops in the castle that buy and sell equipment your characters will need on their adventures. Be sure to check in at the Magic Shop, Armor Shop and Weapon Shop every so often to see what wares are being offered. To buy or sell items in a shop, walk up to the counter. The shopkeeper's screen will appear. Move the sparkling cursor to the desired option ("Buy," "Sell" or "Leave") and press Button A. * To buy an item, select the "Buy" option. Press Button C to choose the character to buy the item, then use the D-Pad to select the item and press Button A to complete the purchase. * To sell an item, select the "Sell" option. The screen now shows all the items your characters possess. Move the cursor to the unwanted item with the D-Pad and press Button A to complete the sale. * To cancel a selection, press Button B or Start. To leave the shopkeeper's screen, either move the cursor to "Leave" and press Button A, or press Button B or Start until the screen shows your party in the shop. Magic Shop The proprietor of the Magic Shop sells a variety of magical scrolls (though only one is available at the start of the game). After your characters purchase a scroll, enter the Camp menu and rest to scribe the scroll into a spellcaster's spell book. Armor Shop This shop sells armor and shields. When characters purchase armor or shields, these immediately improve the characters' armor class. Armor and shields cannot be readied in the two slots beside the characters' portraits. Characters automatically use these items as long as they have them. Only one set of armor and one shield is used at a time. Characters automatically use the best armor and shield they own. Weapon Shop Weapons of many different types can be bought here, though the selection is limited at first. To use a weapon, a character must first ready it. To do that, choose "Inventory" within the Camp menu, and then place the weapon in either slot next to the character's portrait. Caravan Shop Once your heroes have been to an area outside the confines of the valley, check with this shopkeeper if you want them to return to that area. If there is a caravan heading that way, the shopkeeper will let your party ride along for a fee. This makes for a much faster and safer trip. Moving Around To move your adventurers around in the castle and in the wilderness outside the castle, press the D-Pad in the direction you want them to go. The character whose portrait is at the top of the screen leads the group. The others follow in a diamond pattern that conforms to the terrain. When your characters are inside a dungeon or cavern, you see through their eyes. The view you see on the right side of the screen is the first-person perspective your characters have of the dungeon or cavern. To the left is a compass that shows the direction your heroes are facing. Press the D-Pad up to move forward; press it down to move backward. Pressing the D-Pad to the right rotates the party clockwise; pressing it to the left rotates the party counterclockwise. An overhead-view map ls automatically created as your characters move through a dungeon or cavern. To see this map, press the Start button to enter the Camp menu, and then choose "View Map." The party shows up as an arrowhead on this map. This map is lost when you leave the dungeon or cavern. D&D Warriors Of The Eternal Sun Camping and Combat Use Up/Down to scroll text The Camp Menu Most of the non-combat actions available in the game are found within the Camp menu. You can rest your party, save your game, arm your characters with weapons, check their position on the map of the valley, and much more. To enter the Camp menu, press Start at any time while traveling in the castle, in the wilderness or in a dungeon. The Camp menu appears with a number of options for you to choose from. To make a selection, move the sparkling cursor to your choice and press Button A or Button B. To exit the Camp menu or any of its sub-menus, press Start. Camp Menu Options Explanations of Camp Menu options Inventory: When you pick this option, you see the Status screen for the character to whom the blinking arrow is pointing. The character's statistics and other game data appear in the box at the upper left of the screen. The character's items, spells and abilities are displayed in the lower left. To ready a weapon, spell or ability for combat, move the sparkling cursor to the appropriate icon, then press Button A or Button B. The best armor and shields are automatically used by characters and cannot be readied in either slot. A beeping sound means that either the item you have tried to ready cannot be used by that character, or it is a shield or piece of armor and thus cannot be readied by any character. A readied item has a circle around it in the character's inventory. If a spellcaster has no spells depicted in the "Abilities/ Spells" section, the party must rest before the spellcaster can regain any spells. Once the party has rested, return to the Inventory screen to ready that character's spells. Leave Camp: When the sparkling cursor is next to this option, pressing Button A or Button B makes the characters break camp. Their figures appear on the travel screen, ready to explore once again. (You can also press Start to leave camp.) Rest Party: The party makes camp and stays there to rest. Warning: A poisoned character will die if you rest your party before curing the character! You have the following choices to make: * If members of your party are injured and the party includes a cleric who can cast healing spells, you'll be asked if you want the cleric to cast the spells. The cleric can still receive a different spell to use during combat. Use the D-Pad to move to "Yes" or "No" and press Button A or Button B. * Your spellcasters will be asked if you want to change their spell lists (learn or memorize a different spell). Use the D-Pad to move to "Yes" or "No" and press Button A or Button B. If you choose "YES," the sparkling cursor appears with the memorized spells at the top of the screen. Press Button A or Button B to remove the spell the cursor is on. Use the D-Pad to move the cursor to the bottom half of the screen to make your choice for a new spell and press Button A or Button B. Press Start to confirm your selection(s) and exit the screen. After your party has rested, you must go into "Inventory" to ready that spell into either slot before your spellcaster can use it in battle. If you choose "No," the spell list does not change. * Once you have taken care of the spellcasters, the message "Your Party Rests..." appears at the top of the screen. Eight hours are counted off, during which spellcasters recover spells. If you have damaged characters, you'll be asked if you want to rest to heal them. A "No" answer returns you to the Camp menu with any new spells you chose, but no damage is healed. A "Yes" answer rests your party until all damage is healed, until monsters attack, or until you interrupt the rest by pressing Button A, B or C, or the Start button. The party rests in increments of eight hours, with one point of damage healed for every eight hours of rest. Important: Characters with zero hit points cannot be healed. They must be brought to the cleric in the shrine to be revived. Save Game: Use this option often! Every time your heroes gain something you'd hate to lose (experience points, a lot of travel time, items, treasure and so on), press Start to enter the Camp menu, then choose "Save Game." You can save your game in any of four positions. You can use the various positions to save games with different parties (if you're experimenting to find the optimum mix of character classes), or you can use them to save different stages of a party's adventures. The latter option is useful when you try something risky and you want to be sure you can start over if things don't work out. You cannot save a game while your party is inside a dungeon or cavern. Always save just before your characters enter a subterranean area. Each saved position tells the approximate location of the party on the game map. Remember: Save your game often! Load Game: Choosing this sub-menu enables you to load the adventure stored in any of the four Save Game positions. Use the D-Pad to move to the game you want to load, then press Button A or Button B to start that game. Important: Loading a stored adventure erases whatever your heroes have done since the last save. If you want to save your current position, go to "Save Game" before you load another game. Transfer an Item: Choosing this option brings up a screen showing all the items your characters are carrying. To transfer an item from one character to another, position the sparkling cursor over the item you wish to transfer, then press Button A or Button B. Pressing Start after you've selected an item will cancel that choice and enable you to choose another item; pressing it again will return you to the Camp menu. Now use the D-Pad to move the chosen item to the character you want to receive the item. Press Button A or Button B to give it to this character. To transfer an item to a character who already has eight items (the maximum allowed), follow the above procedure. When you try to give the item to the loaded down character, the sparkling cursor moves to the first item in that character's list. To complete the transfer, move the cursor to an item that you want to exchange for the item you are transferring. Note: When you take a readied weapon from a character, that slot is now vacant. Go into "Inventory" to give that character another weapon. View Map: You can view the map of the area your party currently occupies. The white box shows your party's approximate position on the map. In a dungeon or cavern, this displays an overhead map of the part of the dungeon or cavern that your party has explored. When you leave the dungeon or cavern, the map disappears! Combat! Anywhere your heroes go, they'll meet ferocious monsters of every description. The only way to deal with them is with sword and bow, mace and spell. The monsters fight back, of course. In addition to tooth and claw, many monsters have special attacks that often leave characters helpless. Spells and monster abilities can also result in special conditions for characters. Characters may sometimes be under one of the following conditions: Bless: This beneficial condition is the result of a bless spell. It wears off when the party rests. Blind: Blind characters suffer a large penalty to their chance to hit a foe. This condition can be removed by the reverse of the spell that caused it. Diseased: Monster bites sometimes cause horrible diseases. A diseased character cannot be healed. This condition can be remedied by a cure disease or cureall spell or by a visit to the castle's shrine. Hush: This condition prevents the character from casting spells. It wears off when the party rests. Poisoned: This condition gradually drains a character's hit points. A poisoned character dies if the party rests! Poison can be removed by a potion of cure poison, a cure poison or cureall spell, or by a visit to the castle's shrine. Stuck: This condition appears when a character becomes paralyzed, webbed or turned to stone. A character who is paralyzed or webbed is freed when the party rests, but a stone character needs a dispel magic or stone to flesh spell to recover. This condition can also be cured by a visit to the castle's shrine. Wilderness Combat Wilderness combat occurs on the terrain your characters were traveling through just before they made contact with their foes. When it is any character's turn to act, a white box appears around the character's figure. The battle is suspended until you decide what to do with that character. When it is a monster's turn to act, it moves and attacks automatically. Be sure to move a character into position before the character attacks, casts a spell, uses an ability or uses an item. Once a character takes one of these actions, the character's turn is over. You can also press Button C to end a character's turn. The turn then passes to the character or monster who gets to act next. Use the D-Pad to move a character. When you are done moving the character (or the character can move no farther), press Button A or Button B to use the weapon, spell, ability or item readied in the left or right slot, respectively. You can also press Button C to end the character's turn. Wilderness Combat Actions Attacking: When a weapon is readied in the left or right slot, the character prepares to attack with that weapon when you press Button A or Button B, respectively. After you press the button, cross hairs appear on the screen (they usually appear over the closest foe or the one targeted last round). If the cross hairs are red, the target is within range and your character can attack it. If the cross hairs are white, the target is out of range and your character cannot attack it. You can move the cross hairs to another target with the D-Pad. Pressing the other button or Button C cancels the chosen attack and enables you to move the character closer or to use another weapon. The character can still attack after moving or choosing another weapon. Once you have the red cross hairs over a target, attack the target by pressing Button A or Button B, whichever you pressed to start the attack. If you press the button when the white cross hairs are over a target, you hear a beep to tell you the target is beyond your hero's reach. You see your character attack on screen. If the attack succeeds, the target flashes briefly. When an attack kills a monster, the monster disappears from the screen. Melee weapons (axes, daggers, maces, spears, staves, swords and war hammers) can strike only at nearby foes. Missile weapons (bows and slings) can strike at nearby or distant foes. Again, the color of the cross hairs tells you whether or not a target is within range. Casting a Spell: A magic-user, elf or cleric can cast a spell that has been readied in either slot. Pressing Button A or Button B (whichever is appropriate) brings up the cross hairs. If the cross hairs are red, the spell can be cast on that character, monster or area. If the cross hairs are white, the spell cannot be cast there. Once a spell has been cast, its icon disappears from the slot it was readied in. (But if the spellcaster has a second spell of the same type, the slot is automatically refilled with the spell.) Another spell or item can be readied in the slot during the character's next turn by pressing Start and entering "Inventory." Using an Ability: A character can use an ability (such as the thief's hide in shadows ability) that has been readied in either slot. Using an Item: A character can use a potion or other item that has been readied in either slot. The cross hairs again appear for you to designate which character to use the item on. Press the same button to use the item. Combat Options If your party gets into a battle and a character doesn't have a weapon readied or has the wrong items readied, you can quickly change what's in either slot. To do this, press Start at the beginning of a character's turn. You now see the Combat Options menu. One of these options ("Inventory") lets you change the choices for the slots. The four menu options are described below: Inventory: To change what your character has readied in either slot, press Button A or Button B when the sparkling cursor is next to this option. You now see the Status screen for that character. Move the cursor to the item, weapon, spell or ability you want to ready, then press Button A or Button B to change what's readied in the left or right slot, respectively. Press Start to return to the Combat Options menu. Return to Combat: To leave the Combat Options menu and return to battle, press Button A or Button B when the sparkling cursor is next to this option. Attempt to Flee: When a battle turns ugly, this is the option for you. To flee successfully, you must have put some distance between your characters and the pursuing monsters. If your characters are too close to their foes, a beep sounds and they aren't allowed to flee. Load Game: Choose this option to load a previously saved game. Combat in the subterranean areas of WARRIORS OF THE ETERNAL SUN is seen in a first-person perspective. Your characters' foes appear before you in all their glory. These battles are fought in real time; characters attack as fast as you press the buttons (Button A and/or Button B). Your characters need their best weapons-and you need lightning-fast fingers and nerves of steel-to survive these conflicts. You can pause the action and ready other spells or weapons by pressing Start. This brings up the Camp menu. You cannot rest the party while in combat, nor can you save the game while underground, but all the other options can be used. Bestiary There are over 100 monsters to challenge your heroes as they explore the world of the Eternal Sun. The monsters come in all shapes and sizes, and they also come mixed together in randomly generated groups. This means that your characters will seldom face the same group of monsters twice. The ones they'll meet as they first venture forth from the castle are the weakest foes in the game. The Woods: The woods north of the castle are crawling with beastmen of all varieties. These seemingly crazed creatures come in a variety of shapes, sizes and colors. Many wild animals also inhabit these woods. The Swamp: The swamp southeast of the castle is home to the most dangerous foes in the vicinity of the castle, so tread carefully down there. There's talk of black dragons prowling the marshy ground, but few believe these tales. Across the Bridge Southwest of the castle is an ancient bridge that spans a wide river. No scouts have ever returned from across the river, so it is assumed that the monsters there are even more dangerous than the ones found near the castle. D&D Warriors Of The Eternal Sun Spellcasting Use Up/Down to scroll text Spellcasting There are two types of spells in WARRIORS OF THE ETERNAL SUN: clerical spells and magical spells. Only clerics can cast clerical spells, while both magicusers and elves can cast magical spells. (Thieves of 10th or higher level can cast magical spells from scrolls.) The spells a character can cast are limited by the character's level (and by the contents of the spellcaster's spell book, for a magical spellcaster). Few spells are available to a beginning spellcaster (a 1st level cleric has none!). The spells that are available are relatively weak. As the spellcaster rises in level, however, more spells become available and they increase quickly in power. Clerical and magical spells are grouped into levels that indicate their power, in much the same way that characters' levels indicate how skilled they are. As spellcasters rise in level, they can cast higher-level spells. Clerical and magical spells of 1st through 3rd level are discussed here. Higher-level spells are waiting to be discovered by your heroes! Clerics receive their spells from a higher power that they serve. First level clerics receive no spells, but they do have the ability to turn undead. Second level clerics can choose any one of the 1st level clerical spells in the game. The more powerful clerics become, the more spells they can choose, and they get to choose from new lists of higher-level spells. Fourth level clerics, for example, get to pick two 1st level spells and one 2nd level spell. Magic-users and elves learn spells from scrolls the party finds or buys. When these spellcasters have a scroll, they should scribe it into their spell books so they have a permanent record of it. The spellcaster must memorize the spell from the spell book to be able to cast it. Spell Notes * A spell cast against an opponent is not always successful. There is often a random chance that the opponent will resist the effects of the spell. This chance varies according to the spell and how powerful the opponent is. * Beneficial spells that are cast on a spellcaster's comrades are automatically successful. * Most spells last for only a certain length of time. Some spells are permanent. Clerical Spellcasting Clerical spells deal mainly with healing and protection. A cleric of 2nd level or above petitions a higher power for spells. The spells then appear in the cleric's mind. The number of spells a cleric can know at a time depends on the cleric's level. A 2nd level cleric, for example, can know only one 1st level spell at a time. The cleric can cast these spells any time after receiving them; the spells are remembered until the cleric casts them. After casting one or more spells, a cleric must rest to receive replacement spells. A cleric can also replace unused spells with other spells while resting. When you rest the party, you are asked which spell or spells you would like your cleric to learn. The cleric gets to choose from all the available spells. When the party rests, the icons for all 1st level spells appear and you must choose one of them for your cleric to learn. A higher-level cleric can learn more spells at a time, including higher-level spells. 1st Level Clerical Spells Cause Fear: May make a monster run away. There is a chance that the monster will be unaffected by the spell. Cause Light Wounds: Inflicts several points of damage to a target. Caster must be adjacent to the target. Cure Light Wounds: Removes several points of damage (increases a character's current hit points, but never above maximum hit points). Darkness: Blinds an opponent or cancels a light spell. Detect Magic: Detects any foes that use spells or magical items. Light: Blinds an opponent or cancels a darkness spell. Protection from Evil: Gives the cleric a bonus to armor class and to the ability to resist hostile magic. Remove Fear: May prevent a character from running away out of fear. Resist Cold: Enables all beings within an area to better withstand the effects of magical or natural cold. 2nd Level Clerical Spells Bless: Improves the attacks of the cleric and the cleric's allies. Blight: Weakens the attacks of the cleric's enemies. Resist Fire: Enables the recipient to better withstand the effects of magical or natural fire. Silence 15' Radius: Prevents spellcasting in an area. 3rd Level Clerical Spells Continual Darkness: A 1st level darkness spell but permanent unless dispel magic or continual light is cast. Also cancels a continual light spell. Continual Light: A 1st level light spell but permanent unless dispel magic or continual darkness is cast. Also cancels a continual darkness spell. Cause Disease: Weakens the attacks and defenses of one monster. Cure Disease: Cures a character of disease. Striking: Enchants any weapon with a damage bonus for the duration of the spell. Note: More powerful spells will be learned once your cleric reaches the appropriate level of experience. Magical Spellcasting Magic-users and elves can both cast magical spells, but magic-users are more adept at it. Magic-users and elves can cast only those spells that they have memorized from their spell books or that they read from scrolls. A scroll is a rolled-up piece of parchment on which are written the instructions for casting a spell. A scroll could be found while the party is out adventuring, or it could be bought in the castle's Magic Shop. No matter what its origin, a scroll can be used only once. After a spell is read from a scroll, the scroll loses its magical powers and crumbles into dust. A spell book is a large book a magic-user or elf always carries. On the spell book's pages are written the formulas for all the spells the magic-user or elf knows. These spells are permanently inscribed in the spell book. The spellcaster can memorize a spell from the spell book and the spell remains written down for the spellcaster to memorize again and again. A spell book has enough blank pages to accommodate all the spells a magic-user or elf might find or buy. A wise spellcaster will not cast a spell directly from a scroll. The magic-user or elf should scribe the spell from the scroll into a spell book; the scroll crumbles into dust, but now the spellcaster has a permanent record of the spell. To scribe the scroll spell into a spell book, rest the party. The spell is scribed into the spell book of the magical spellcaster who possesses the scroll. If a non-magical spellcaster has the scroll when the party rests, the spell is scribed into the spell book of the next available spellcaster who does not already have the spell. Check carefully to see which character has the scroll before the party rests! Magical spellcasters can scribe into their spell books only those spells the characters are high enough in level to cast. For example, 1st level spellcasters can scribe only 1st level spells into their spell books. Spellcasters must reach 3rd level before they can scribe 2nd level spells. For levels beyond this, you must experiment to discover which spells your spellcasters can scribe into their spell books. A 1st level magic-user or elf can memorize a spell from a scroll or spell book and have that spell ready for use. Once the spell is cast, the magic-user or elf must rest to memorize another spell. When the party rests, you will be asked which spell or spells you wish the spellcaster to memorize. A magic-user's spell book contains the magic missile spell at the start of the game. An elf's spell book contains the sleep spell at the start of the game. As magic-users and elves gain levels, they can memorize more spells at a time. The spells available to these spellcasters are still limited to those in their spell books or those scrolls they find or buy. 1st Level Magical Spells Darkness: Blinds an opponent or cancels a light spell. Detect Magic: Detects any foes that use spells or magical items. Light: Blinds an opponent or cancels a darkness spell. Magic Missile: Fires magical arrows that always hit opponents in wilderness combat. Within a dungeon or cavern, a monster may dodge out of the way. Protection from Evil: Gives the spellcaster a bonus to armor class and to resist hostile magic. Shield: Grants excellent protection against melee attacks and missiles, including some protection against magic missile spells. Sleep: Puts low-level creatures to sleep. 2nd Level Magical Spells Continual Darkness: A 1st level darkness spell but permanent unless dispel magic or continual light is cast. Also cancels a continual light spell. Continual Light: A 1st level light spell but permanent unless dispel magic or continual darkness is cast. Also cancels a continual darkness spell. Entangle: Binds an enemy with vines. Web: Causes a mass of spider webs to appear and entangle its victim(s). 3rd Level Magical Spells Dispel Magic: May remove any magical effects in an area. The chance of success improves as the spellcaster's level increases. Fireball: Creates an exploding ball of flame that damages anyone within the area of effect. Haste: Causes allies within the spell's area of effect to move and attack twice as often as normal. Lightning Bolt: Creates a bolt of electricity. When cast underground, this bolt bounces off solid objects. Protection from Evil 10' Radius: Improves ability of spellcaster and allies to resist hostile magic; weakens enemies' attacks. Repulses some creatures. Protection from Normal Missiles: Makes one being invulnerable to small, non-magical missiles. Slow: Causes enemies within the spell's area of effect to move and attack half as often as normal. Note: More powerful spells exist, but these must be discovered by your characters as you play the game. D&D Warriors Of The Eternal Sun Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text General Hints * Save your game often and always before entering dungeons! * Be sure to check the shops in the castle whenever a character goes up in level. The shopkeepers bring out new items from time to time. * Pick party members so as to have a good mix of spellcasting and fighting skills. You'll need plenty of both to complete this game! * When in combat, gang up on monsters so as to quickly cut down on the number of monsters making attacks. Go after the monsters who are causing the most damage first. * Use terrain to your advantage in wilderness combat. * Use missile weapons to attack from a distance. * Position area-effect spells so as to affect the most monsters. * Use sleep spells often! (But remember that they are most effective on weak enemies.) * Run away when your heroes are overmatched. * Approach cautiously when you get to the swamps. You don't know what may pop up!

Somehow he never got your real head on exactly right-or is it tight? Anyway, something else went wrong too. You got an extra head-one in your chest. Oh well...they say two heads are better than one. Now the reason you were created was to help pull things back together. They have started to get out of hand. And out of legs, and arms and eyes and hearts... Because the fearsome Max D. Cap has recruited Dr. Frank N. Stein's weird creations for his own personal army. Confused yet? Well you're on an island. And all the sections of the island are made up of body parts. But the big bad boss of all bosses, Max D. Cap, has separated all the parts in order to gain total control. Your job? Use your head to get through each of the seven parts of the island. Punch bad guys, collect coins, find and use power-up potions and more. When you complete a level (each level has three rounds) a part of the island will be reconnected. You'll meet all kinds of strange and bizarre creatures... Man-eating plants. Werewolves. Biting totem poles. Ghoulish Ghosts. Land-stalking fish. Walking skulls and much, much more.

Witness his newest plan: the Mean Bean-Steaming Machine, a nasty device that changes the jolly folk of Beanville into devious little robots that will help the deranged doctor rid Mobius of music and fun forever! Only you can help by grouping the bean folk together and allowing them to escape. If you like Tetris, you'll love the fast head-to-head action of the Mean Bean Machine! From Sega.

Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text SCENARIO MODE: Here you'll match wits with Dr. Robotnik's finest mechanical minds. Each henchbot is more cunning than the last, and each has his own strategy. With each victory, the action gets faster and more mind-boggling until you take on the evil Dr. Robotnik himself! You can gauge your progress by the look on your opponent's face in the center of the screen--for a robot, he's not very good at hiding his expression! 1P VS 2P MODE: You and a friend can challenge each other to a bean-slinging match of 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, or 15 games. When the game screen appears, both players can choose from five levels of difficulty by pressing the D-Button up or down. The game begins when both players have selected a difficulty level and pressed the Start Button. Player 1's dungeon is on the left side of the screen, and Player 2's on the right side. EXERCISE MODE: Need some practice? Use this mode to sharpen your skills alone or with a friend. First select your skill and bonus level, then press the Start Button to begin play. As your score climbs, so does the level of difficulty and the speed at which the beans drop. You won't have any refugee beans to worry about, as in the Scenario and 1P VS 2P Modes, but the action will be fast and furious enough to keep you hopping. Two guest characters appear just when your future starts looking bleak: * HAS BEAN used to be one of the jollier beans in the village...until Dr. Robotnik changed him into a robot. Usually he prefers to clown around on the sidelines, but he hasn't forgotten his humble past. Occasionally he'll drop into your dungeon and take a little walk. Any beans he walks over change to the same color and disappear. * BIG BEAN is just that--a really big bean. So big, in fact, that any beans he drops on immediately vanish just to get out of his way. You'll usually find Big Bean lurking around the higher levels to give you and his buddies some help. Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine Objective Use Up/Down to scroll text GAME PLAY: When the game begins, beans drop from the top of the dungeon in pairs. When two beans of the same color touch, they link. Make the beans disappear from the dungeon by linking up four or more beans of the same color. You can move a pair of beans around the dungeon by pressing the D-Button left or right. Rotate the beans by pressing Button A, B or C. To speed up their descent, press the D-Button down. If you drop a pair of beans horizontally on an uneven surface, any bean left hanging will separate from the pair and drop to the lowest point. When a group of beans disappears, any beans left on top drop into the remaining space. Use this to create chain reactions for bonus points! As you play, the beans drop faster and faster. The dungeon can only hold so many beans, and if they reach the top of the dungeon, the bottom drops out and you lose the game. REFUGEES: If you are playing an opponent, you can block your opponent's moves by dropping refugee beans into his or her dungeon. Refugee beans don't come from Beanville, and can't be grouped with any clan--they can only leave the dungeon with a neighboring group of four or more beans. Call up refugee beans by making as many of your beans disappear as you can--preferably in chain reactions. The more beans you get rid of at one time, the more refugee beans get dumped into your rival's dungeon. Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text When possible, set up chain reactions. To ensure lots of chain reactions, create groups of three beans at the bottom of the Dungeon. Try to beat bosses under 120 seconds (if not, the boss becomes harder). Group beans together in sets of three or two when possible. Practice against the computer until you are able to do multiple chain reactions (2 to 3). LEVEL PASSWORDS: 1. None 2.

When trying to steal the ball, get in front of the person with the ball and when he passes it, press Button A for the steal. This doesn't always work, but with practice, it will work more often than not! OFFENSE: Three point shots are easily made (as long as the opponent is the computer, and you aren't playing Superstar mode). Jump and let the button go at the top of the jump. If the shooter has decent three point shooting (check in the beginning of the game, where you select your players), he will make 95% of them! REALLY SHORT GAMES: In the Options screen, select "Minutes per Quarter", you can choose quarters as quick as 20 seconds by holding down the A, B and C Buttons.

The curtain is raised, and the Treasure Theater Show begins. The star of the show is Dynamite Headdy, the guy with the coolest head on stage. But danger lurks backstage-Trouble Bruin, a henchman of Dark Demon, stirs up trouble as he tries to do away with Headdy! But Trouble Bruin is small stuffing compared to Dark Demon, who strives to rule the world by converting its inhabitants into his evil minions! Most devastating are the Keymasters, who serve as Dark Demon's elite guard. As Dynamite Headdy, it's up to you to defeat Dark Demon and restore peace to the world.

YOUR CUES: As Dynamite Headdy, you travel from scene to scene, exploring backgrounds, grabbing goodies, and defeating Dark Demon's evil minions. The spotlight in the upper left corner of the screen shows your health. The light starts out green, and as you suffer damage, it turns yellow, then red, and begins to blink. As the colors change, the "H" icon inside the light grows smaller and finally disappears. If the light goes out, you lose a life. Use certain goodies and Power Up Heads to restore your health and turn the light green again. When you face a Keymaster in battle, a spotlight with an "E" icon-representing the Keymaster's health-appears in the upper right corner of the screen. THE SUPPORTING CAST: Along with your fans cheering you on, you have a number of friends who are always willing to help. Early in the game, you'll come across a street with three doors. Each door leads to a Practice Room where you will meet one of these friends and sharpen your skills for later. Stand in front of a door and press the D-Pad UP to enter. Hangman hangs from platforms, signs and other devices. Use him as a hook to pull yourself up to high places, or to pull things down to you.

When you're ready to begin, press Button A, B, or C. Basketballs are fired from two machines. As they come out, use your head to bounce the balls into the proper baskets. Once the balls bounce on the ground, they turn blue and can't be used. Look out for the occasional bomb that gets fired-it won't damage the machine, but it can hurt you! Shoot for baskets with STAR icons for points. Shooting a basket with a KEY icon causes one of your ball machines to explode. Try to avoid this. Shooting a basket with a BASKETBALL icon causes more balls to shoot out of the ball machines for a short time. Shooting a basket with a SLOW icon slows the movement of the baskets for a short time. The basketball game ends when: * The required number of baskets are made. * Your health light begins blinking rapidly. * Both ball machines explode. * You press Button A during the game. After the results appear, press Button A, B, or C to return to the main game. Your health is fully restored once you return to the main game.

Desert Strike Electronic Arts To return to Now Playing, reset your adapter. QUICK START THE MAP SCREEN MISSION 1 WALKTHROUGH HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Desert Strike Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text Without warning a madman has emerged in the Middle East and threatens to start Armageddon. The international community knows very little about this menace, the self-styled "General" Kibaba, but we have enough evidence of his military capabilities to take his threats very seriously. The President of the United States has chosen you to fly a series of dangerous preemptive campaigns in the desert to vanquish this inimical despot. Desert Strike Quick Start Use Up/Down to scroll text * Use the D-Pad to fly and the buttons to fire. * During the game, press Start to call up the map. * Use the D-Pad to locate targets, supplies, and enemy weapons on the map. * Hover over crates, drums, and people to pick them up. * Complete the missions in order. * Drop off passengers in landing zones to restore armor. * Read all the text on the screen. * Supplies are sometimes concealed inside targets. Desert Strike The Map Screen Use Up/Down to scroll text You will need to refer to the battle map continually throughout each campaign to locate yourself in relation to your targets and objectives. The action pauses when you call up the map screen. From the Map Screen you can access military data specific to your current campaign and call up a record of your status for that campaign. Desert Strike Mission 1 Walkthrough Use Up/Down to scroll text The first order of business in any modern military conflict is to establish air superiority. Accordingly, in your first mission you must demolish the enemy's airfields. But before you can do that safely, you need to take out his radar and power stations. After the airfields come the command centers, where the enemy commanders cower. To accomplish the final mission of the first campaign, you have to blow up the command centers and abduct an enemy commander, for only then will you learn where the allied spy is being held captive. The spy holds the madman's secret nuclear plans. A WALK-THROUGH For the purposes of this walk-through, the top of the screen is north. Press anywhere on the D-Pad to lift off the frigate. As soon as you lift off, press START to check out the map. As you see, land lies to the East and the enemy's radar sites are blinking. To destroy both radar sites is your first objective. It will help to know how well defended the radar sites are. D-Pad left/right to see what kind of weapons the enemy has deployed near the radar sites. When you come to AAA (Anti-Aircraft Artillery) you see that each radar site is defended closely by two AAA batteries. Press B for more information about AAAs. You see that the enemy's AAAs are not heavily armored and pack only a 20 point wallop. Their accuracy is poor, but they fire rapidly. They rotate at medium speed and do not benefit from radar. In all, AAAs do not appear to be very formidable defenses. You should be able to handle them easily. Press START to return to the campaign. Fly to the southernmost radar site. You might have to call up the map again to get your bearings. On your way there you will likely run across soldiers skirmishing on the ground, or be fired upon by a lone enemy. Soldiers dressed in khaki are MIAs in need of rescue. Rescuing MIAs is part of your job and also can be a great benefit to you. You may not land at a landing site if you do not have a least one passenger. Each passenger you drop off restores 150 points to your armor, with a maximum of 600 points. If you like, destroy the enemy aggressor and hover over the MIA, who is probably flailing his arms. The rope ladder will descend as you approach the MIA. When you are correctly positioned over the MIA, he will grab the ladder and your copilot will pull him aboard. At the beginning of Campaign #1 there are at least 20 MIAs. As time advances, the MIAs are gradually killed. That in mind, you might find it expedient to take out all the enemy ground troops you come across. Apart from adding to your point total, you will be protecting the lives of your MIAs, and hence your own longevity. When you reach the radar site you find one AAA inside the fence and one just outside. The AAAs begin to shoot at you as soon as you are in range. Attempt to destroy the AAAs with either your chain guns (C) or a couple of hydras (B). You might find it possible to dodge the AAAs and destroy the radar sites without having to expend any heavy ammunition. See if you can find a position where your chain guns reach the radar dish but where you are out of reach of both AAAs. Conserving ammunition is not so important in Campaign #1, where ammo is not scarce; but in later campaigns you will want to be conscious of the different ways to conserve ammunition. As soon as you're safe from AAA fire, attack the radar dish. Since the radar dish cannot fire back, there is no need to use your heavier firepower to destroy it. Blast away with your chain gun (C) as fast as you can. Your fuel is always diminishing. After you destroy the radar dish, press START to check the map. When you left this screen last you were looking at the mission data log on AAAs, so press (A) to call up the map screen. Notice that the radar site you just destroyed no longer appears on the map. Before you move to the next radar site, you might want to see what objects lie between it and your present position. D-Pad left/right to toggle through map characters. You will see that there are two AAAs protecting the site, two MIAs nearby, and an ammo crate in the vicinity. This one looks like a cake walk. Fly north toward the radar site. Take out enemy targets along the way as you see fit. REMEMBER: Virtually everything on the screen is destructible, but you are required only to destroy the seven targets on the map. Destroy the radar site as before. At this point you still should have more than half a tank of fuel. This should be enough to complete the second mission. NOTE: It is unwise to attempt to complete the objectives out of order. For example, if you try to complete mission 2 without first destroying the radar sites, the enemy's defense will be better prepared and you will waste ammo and/or lose lives unnecessarily. Check the map for the next objective: the Power Station. Toggle through the enemy weapons listed in the selection display to find the safest route and the best probable direction of approach. Notice that AAAs are placed strategically, and that Rapier SAMs guard all the remaining targets. Try flying North and East, avoiding the heavily defended airfield. When you come across a guard post or a group of tents you may or may not attack. Enemy buildings and tents sometimes contain useful supplies. Take out the Rapier and the AAAs guarding the power plant. If you still have plenty of fuel, you might take the time to destroy the power plant with your chain gun and save your Hydras and Hellfires for more urgent situations. This is a good policy generally. Notice the toolbox in the crater where the power plant was. Go to the map and check your armor points. If you have fewer than say, 300 armor points left, then you might want to pick up the toolbox. The toolbox restores your armor to full strength. Pick up the toolbox in the same way that you picked up the MIA. Hover over it and your copilot will lower a hook and pull the toolbox up with the winch. At this point, you could probably use some fuel and some ammo. There is a crate in one of the barracks to the south and some fuel drums nearby, unless one or both were accidentally destroyed in the battle. Also, there are two MIAs in the area. Find the fuel barrels and ammo crate if necessary, and hover over them to pick them up. Now fly to the nearest airfield. The airfield is heavily defended, and you could bite the dust easily. Try to sneak up on the AAAs and Rapiers and destroy them before they can turn around and fire. Never hesitate to retreat. If you take several hits and find your armor dangerously low, retreat to the nearest landing site and drop off your MIA. This action restores your armor, and you can return to your present objective with a new lease on life. You might want to check the map for MIAs and pick up the nearest one. If possible, always have an MIA on board. Finish destroying the airfield. You have to take out all the planes and all the buildings before the airfield is considered destroyed. When in doubt, check the map. If the airfield icon. still appears on the map, then at least one object critical to the airfield remains intact. Destroy the other airfield. Before moving on to the command centers, make sure you are well-fueled, armed, and armored. It's a terrible feeling to lose your third life at the end of a campaign because of a careless oversight. It's possible that there are no MIAs left, in which case you need to be extra cautious and willing to use more and heavier firepower against targets that fire back. When you destroy a command center, the enemy commander will attempt to escape. Chase the commander and take him prisoner. Only then will you learn where the allied spy is being held captive. You need only destroy one command center and capture one commander to get the location of the spy, but you receive bonus points for destructive actions above and beyond the call of duty. Make sure you are well-fueled, armed and armored, especially if you're down to your last life. At the site where the spy is located you will find three buildings. One of the buildings conceals an underground trap door. Pick a building and destroy it. If the underground door does not appear, destroy another building. When you find the trap door, fly above it and the Apache will automatically land. Your copilot will run in to rescue the spy. In the meantime, a few VDA guns will appear on the scene. Destroy the guns and your copilot and the spy will emerge from the trap door. Pick up the spy and your copilot and return to the frigate. After you land, you and your copilot celebrate on the deck of the frigate and your commander gives you a summary of your score. Read your debriefing and get your assignment for Campaign #2. If you want to stop now and return to the game later, write down the password. Note: you must complete a campaign to obtain a password for the next campaign. You cannot return to the middle of a campaign. Desert Strike Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Keep Moving: * You can't win the game if you don't learn how to out-maneuver the enemy's weapons. The President picked you to head-up this mission because of your consummate skills as a pilot. He would be mighty disappointed if he saw you going toe-to-toe with a SAM launcher in a government-owned Apache, when you could easily dodge and fire. Fuel and Ammo Conservation: * In Campaigns 2, 3 and 4 there are more fuel drums and ammunition crates in the field than are indicated on the map. The map shows only those supplies exposed above ground. Numerous fuel and ammo dumps are hidden in buildings, under sand dunes, etc. The only way to find these hidden supplies is to blow up the structures that conceal them. * You might find it a useful strategy (especially in the later, more difficult campaigns) to explore the field for hidden supplies, taking note of where they are, before attempting to win a campaign. * Whenever possible, use your chain gun to destroy non-hostile targets, such as bunkers, sand dunes, and small buildings. You'll find in the later campaigns that your Hellfires and Hydra are precious commodities not to be squandered. So when you clear an area of enemy weapons, use your chain gun to destroy the targets if you have enough fuel, firing rapidly with the C-Button to conserve fuel. * Don't waste fuel and ammo by picking them up when you're already full or nearly full. It's best to let them sit where they are and return when you need them. * You will notice that your Apache does not consume fuel when you're flying over water. Accordingly, fly over water whenever possible to conserve fuel. Jinking: * Certain targets are difficult to hit, even with Jake as your copilot. The Oil Spill and Bomb Shelter missions are two examples of difficult targets, where you have to strike a small spot on a large object in order to do damage. Jinking will help you increase your precision. (Press and hold A in combination with a D-Pad direction to jink.) Neutral Targets: * Some targets, such as buildings and dunes, are neutral, which means that your gunner will not fire on them automatically. If you want to hit a neutral target, you must point the Apache directly at it and fire. Jinking often comes in handy here. Picking Up Passengers: * When there is a crowd of waiting passengers, your copilot will pick out the closest one and drop the ladder for him. You must pick up that passenger or back away from him before the ladder will drop for another passenger. * You can capture unarmed enemy foot soldiers, but if you leave the area after spotting them, they may not be there when you return. Dropping Off Passengers: * When you land at a landing zone, all passengers (except commandos) will disembark. Try to drop off your passengers at appropriate times so as not to waste the armor value they bring. You need not pick up all available passengers to win a campaign, but you should remember the locations of the people you did not pick up so that you can use them for armor points later if you need to.

And watch your plasma gun's energy level--recharging only seems to take longer when you're in a jam. * Open your eyes and search around. There are many secrets to be found. Closely look at what you see, for many secrets are off the screen... * There are a ton of goodies on each level. If you can't find a way to get to something you see, the answer may lie just ahead, or below, or above you, or this-away, or that-away... * To keep Psy-Crow out of the action, you've got to beat him in the asteroid...race. Otherwise he'll give you problems on every level. (Lose a turn for not laughing at the asteroid joke.) * Defeating the Queen involves stopping her from laying eggs. Now, how can you do that? Don't you wish you stayed awake during health education? * Most of the time, keeping Peter moving along is the best plan of action. But how can you stop him, or slow him down, when you need to? Click. * Making cookies with butter-flavored shortening rather than butter or margarine keeps them from flattening out too much during baking. * Finding the can of worms is one way to get a continue, the other...well, that's fuel for thought. * To see early credits and a hidden Andy Asteroid Stage, do the following: 1. Load up the game and press reset on the Genesis. 2. At the Sega logo, press Start. 3. Wait at the title screen until the screen with Earthworm Jim's face comes up with the stage's name above it. 4. Press start to skip through that. Repeat steps 1-4 several times. After a few tries, the game's credits will roll by and you will find yourself in a mysterious Andy Asteroid Stage.

Ecco the Dolphin Dolphin Facts Use Up/Down to scroll text * The earliest known ancestors of bottlenose dolphins were the squalodonts, the first true toothed whales, which flourished about 30 to 35 million years ago. * The average length of bottlenose dolphins is 10 feet, their average weight is about 440 pounds (but they can reach up to 600 pounds), and their average life span is 25 to 30 years. * Bottlenoses can reach a top speed of about 25 mph. * The scientific name of bottlenose dolphins is Tursiops truncatus, meaning "cut-off face." Bottlenoses belong to the superfamily Delphinoidea, named after a legend in which the god Apollo rose from the sea in dolphin form. The ancients commemorated this event in the constellation Delphinus, a group of five stars in the shape of a dolphin that can still be seen in the northern skies. * In self-defense, bottlenoses have been seen ramming large sharks hard enough to push them above the water. * Dolphins communicate with a wide range of sounds. They whistle, clap, grunt, chuckle, squeak, rasp, pop and belch. Bottlenoses can also produce a rapid series of clicks, up to 1000 separate sounds per second. They "see" even the most complex shapes with their sonar. Each individual dolphin has a personal "signature whistle," just like we each have our own voice. * Bottlenoses often school with other species, such as shortfin pilot whales. They sometimes accompany great white whales and humpback whales on their migrations. * In an aquarium, a dolphin watched a human diver cleaning the viewing window. The dolphin then copied the diver, using a seagull feather held in its beak as a scraper. The bottlenose was so efficient and conscientious at the task that the human worker was never needed again. Ecco the Dolphin Ecco's Family Use Up/Down to scroll text Ecco is a bottlenose dolphin, whose family (or species) is remarkable for being almost totally unafraid of humans. They readily approach ships and boats, and are wonderful to watch at play. They are graceful and agile, rising in turns to "blow," and they seldom if ever rudely jostle each other for position. Bottlenoses group in small social units of about 15 dolphins or less. While feeding, each dolphin follows its own track, rising up in the water two or three times a minute. Occasionally before diving, dolphins will "lobtail," loudly flapping their flukes on the water's surface. Usually, they dive for less than a minute, but their underwater stays have been clocked at as long as 10 minutes! At times, individual dolphins will suddenly "breach", hurling themselves 16 feet or more into the air. Dolphins make their home all over the globe in warm and temperate waters. One of their secrets to being able to live world-wide is their less-than-picky appetite. Bottlenoses eat 15 to 33 pounds of food a day, usually feeding in shallow waters on inshore bottom-dwelling fish. But they'll also pleasurably dine on eels, catfish, sharks, rays, hermit crabs and shrimps. Cooperation seems to be the rule with bottlenoses. On record is the story of a dolphin pod that chased a school of bluefish into a shallow bay. Then, they stationed two guards to keep the fish captive, while the rest took turns chowing down. In another report, three dolphins were seen in a tight cluster, two of them supporting the third, that was stunned, and assisting it to the surface to breathe. Ecco the Dolphin Survival Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text STAYING HEALTHY: Like fish and coral, dangers abound in the open seas. Many things can and will hurt you, and when they do, you lose strength. If your health runs out, you'll sink to the ocean depths, and you'll have to start the level over. To stay healthy: * Charge into a school of small fish for food. * Find healing clams, known as the Shelled Ones. Figure out how to get and use their energizing gifts. BREATHING: You need to breathe to stay alive. You can dive to the deepest parts of the ocean, and into the darkest waters, but you must always be close to air. Without it, your breath ebbs away. If you run out of breath, your questing ends, and you must start the level over. You can breathe in two ways: * Leap out of the water, either into the open air or into an air pocket you find in the rocky submerged caverns. You'll regain full breath immediately. * Push your nose above water, especially in tight submerged pockets where you can't jump. You'll gradually recover breath. Try to regain full breath, but stay on watch for dangers that may force you to move on before your breath meter is full. SINGING: Use your dolphin songs to survive and thrive on your long journey. Sing to the sea life, to other singers and shells, to Glyphs and to anything you don't understand. SINGING: Learn to listen to your songs; they all have different meanings. Songs are powerful. They can: * Call to other singers, who will respond with songs of their own. You may get clues, pleas for help or important directions. * Ward off the deadly Hungry Ones and other enemies. * Get new songs, special powers and information from Glyphs scattered throughout the mazes of the sea. MAPPING WITH SONGS: Songs that echo back to you bring long-range information. This is called "echolocation." When you hold down Button A, your song reverberates through the currents and caverns, returning to you with a map of your surroundings. Ecco's Map shows you: * Your position and passages through the rocky walls. * Prowling enemies and dangerous objects (shown as orange circles). * Glyphs and other interesting objects. * Healing clams and air pockets (shown as bubbles). * Barriers and moveable rocks and shells (shown as orange blocks). GLYPHS: Glyphs are mysterious crystals scattered in the ocean depths. The secrets they hold are as old and timeless as the sea itself. Figure out how to gain their powers and knowledge, by singing or charging, or just by swimming near them. Some Glyphs give you messages. Others impart new songs you'll need to continue the journey. Barrier Glyphs push you away and you must discover how to move them. Power Glyphs can bestow invincibility (you can't be injured while the power lasts) or fill up your health and breath meters. ENEMIES: The sea is a beautiful yet dangerous place. Most undersea life is your enemy! Use your songs to ward off attackers, or charge to scare them away or dissolve them into sea foam. Some enemies, like the octopus, are so quick that only your wits or a hint from a Glyph can save you. BARRIERS AND CURRENTS: Rocks, shells and island barriers will block your progress. You may be caught in overpowering currents that are too swift to swim through. For every obstacle, there's a solution. It may be in a message or waiting in a Glyph. Search for moveable rocks, free-floating shells and unusual sea life. Then figure out how to use them. Try charging to break barriers or fight through currents. And remember: the shortest route is not always under water. RESCUING LOST DOLPHINS: Three young dolphins have floundered in the craggy depths. You must find them all and guide them back to safe waters. When you locate a lost dolphin, glide slowly over him, close to his back and a little ahead of him. Try to swim in the direction he's going, but if he turns, that's OK. Wait a few seconds, and he'll turn around again. When he begins swimming like you, he's ready to follow. Now you can lead him back to his pod.

Start a new game 2. Push and hold both A and Start at the same time as the screen fades out (after Ecco swims to the right to start a new game). 3. The game should be paused as the level fades in. Unpause the game. 4. If the trick worked, you should be invincible (your life and breath meters will deplete as you get hit and lose air, but Ecco will stay alive!) Method 2: 1. Enter a password for any level. 2. When the text appears on the screen, push and hold both A and Start. 3. When the level starts, the game should be paused (because you're still holding down both A and Start. Unpause the game. 4. If the trick worked, you should be invincible (your life and breath meters will deplete as you get hit and lose air, but Ecco will stay alive!) NEW ECCO POWERS: If you successfully rescue all the dolphins from "The Vents" and "The Lagoon," you obtain 2 new abilities. The first is the power to freeze certain enemies (like jellyfish) with your sonar. The second is to confuse enemies (like sharks) with your sonar. Also, by using these powers in conjunction with charging (Button B), you can destroy some enemies from a distance! To make this work, freeze or confuse an enemy. Alternate pushing buttons A and B rapidly to destroy your enemies from a (short) distance. To make other dolphins follow you (in "The Vents" or "The Lagoon"), swim closely and slowly in front of them, then swim over them to "pick" them up. To pick objects up (boulders, cone-shaped shells, etc.), try this: swim straight down on the object, then swim straight back up to pick it up and move it around (push, don't charge). Sometimes you'll find a Ring of Starfish to help you break through walls of boulders or other obstacles. Move them around by using your sonar. You have to be quick though, because they tend not to last too long. Clams can either help or hinder you. Clams that release blue bubbles restore your health. Clams that release red bubbles take your health away. Charge into or sonar them to make them open. You can push blocks and stones into a heavy current and follow them down, letting you get into areas you could not reach by swimming alone. NOTE: If you use certain passwords to cheat in the game, you will not be able to complete the game! Examples of "cheat" passwords are: SHARKFIN ALNILSEN FASTFISH ATLANTIS USE THESE AT YOUR OWN RISK!

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME STRATEGIES HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Ecco: The Tides of Time Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text A VAST STREAM OF TIME The waters of Home Bay swell with the deep blue of peace. Ecco swims and frolics in the surf. The sea is warm, calm and full of good fish. Best of all, Ecco's pod is with him, safe again. In fact, it's Ecco who's making waves, leaping, twisting and joyously jumping, challenging his podmates to races and feeding contests! The Vortex now seems so far away. The Vortex-the nearly invincible, secret, yet supremely dangerous enemy. It's only been a short time since this monster, in a churning whirlpool, tore Ecco's family from Home Bay. Then Ecco braved the terrors of unknown waters to find and defeat this evil menace that fed on the creatures of the sea. The Vortex queen, though weakened, was not destroyed. She followed Ecco from her hive in deep space back to this new, nourishing planet. Now, plunging into the warm waters of Earth, she seeks out a deep chasm and sinks into the abyss. Here she can feed upon the Earth as she spawns stream after stream of Vortex young. Ecco must rid the world of this engulfing evil. Even as he tumbles in the waves, the future is unfolding. But must it be a dark future ruled by the Vortex, lifeless, miserable and cold? Does Earth have any chance for a warm future, teeming with energetic life? Ecco must stop the Vortex! He is "the stone that splits the stream of time." He now faces a quest far more dangerous than any he's yet undertaken. For Ecco must save not only his dolphin pod, but the Earth and all living beings! Ecco: The Tides of Time Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text PLAY CONTROLS D-Pad: * To swim. Hold the D-Pad for cruising speed. * Hold the D-Pad to make Ecco leap when breaking the water's surface. * Tap the D-Pad lightly to swim slowly through dangerous passages. Button A: * Sing(use sonar). Ecco's song ripples out in the direction he is facing. * Sing to other beings and objects for information. * Sing to perform tasks. * Sing to repel enemies and ward off dangers. Button A twice: * 360 sonar blast. Ecco gains the 360 sonar ability when he sings to a Pulsar. * Use this enhanced weapon to blast enemies in all directions at once, especially when under incessant attack.

Button C: * Speed swim. Tap the button repeatedly to increase speed, then hold down to maintain speed. D-Pad toward surface, then Button C when Ecco jumps out of the water: * Ecco will flip. Press Buttons A-C: * Exit text screens. Start: * Pause/resume play. Ecco: The Tides of Time Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text STARTING ECCO'S QUEST In a calm, submerged cavern, Ecco waits to begin his long journey through the timeless seas. You can start him off in one of four ways: * Press D-Pad right to start Ecco's quest from the beginning, at the NORMAL skill level. * Press D-Pad up-right to start Ecco's quest from the beginning, at the EASY skill level. * Press D-Pad up-left to start Ecco's quest from the beginning, at the DIFFICULT skill level. * If you have a password from a previous game, press D-Pad left to go to the Password screen. From there, you can start Ecco's adventures from somewhere in mid-journey. Staying Healthy Dangers abound in Ecco's world. Aggressive enemies will attack. Cruising jellyfish, spiky shells, sea worms and many unexpected hazards injure Ecco when he unwittingly strikes them. To restore Ecco's health: * Charge schools of fish for food. Each fish Ecco swallows restores two units of health in the meter. With a full health meter, Ecco can withstand four hits. On the fifth hit, the first unit of health disappears. From then on, Ecco can only take two hits before losing another health unit. If the health meter disappears completely, Ecco will fade from view, and you'll have to start the level over. Keep Ecco healthy, or you'll soon be overcome by lurking or attacking foes. Breathing Ecco needs to breathe to stay alive. When Ecco is underwater, the units in his air meter ebb away. He must find an air source to replenish his breath. Otherwise, if he runs out of air, his questing ends and you must start the level over. To restore Ecco's air: * Leap out of the water into the open air. Ecco will regain full breath immediately, filling the meter. * Push Ecco's nose above water to gradually recover air. This method takes longer to fill Ecco's air meter. While he's resting, he's an easy target for enemies, so stay aware of Ecco's surroundings. * Find a submerged source of air(shown as a bubble on Ecco's map), and the rest in the flow of bubbles to gradually restore air meter. * Keep Ecco's air meter full. Never take a chance on getting caught without an air supply. Singing(Using Sonar) Use Ecco's dolphin songs to survive and thrive on his long journey. Sing to the sea life, to other singers and shells, to Glyphs and to anything you don't understand. Learn to listen to your songs; they have many different meanings. To sing, tap Button A: * Songs are powerful. They call to other singers, who will respond with songs of their own. You may get clues, pleas for help or important directions. * Songs ward off the deadly Hungry Ones(sharks), jellyfish and other enemies. But always be ready to either charge into an enemy to attack it, or dart away from fast-moving danger to avoid it. * Songs elicit new songs, special powers and information from Glyphs scattered throughout the mazes of the sea. * Songs help Ecco solve puzzles. When in doubt, test your surroundings with songs. Mapping with Songs(Echolocation) Songs that echo back to you bring long-range information. This is called "echolocation." When you hold down Button A, Ecco's song reverberates through the currents and caverns, returning with a map of Ecco's surroundings. To see Ecco's map, press and hold Button A: * A sonar map will appear, showing Ecco's position, undersea passages and outlets to the surface. * Prowling sharks, cruising jellyfish, floating shells and other enemies are easily identified. * Dangerous objects such as spiky shells appear as orange circles. * Large transparent bubbles indicate submerged air pockets. * Clusters of small colored dots are nourishing schools of fish. * Glyphs are shown as large crystals. * Teleport rings appear as circles with yellow arrows at the bottom. * Pulsars are shown as curves spreading from a central point. * Metaspheres appear as glowing, solid circles. * Look for a ring of stars and discover what they can do. * Press any button to exit Ecco's map. Ecco: The Tides of Time Strategies Use Up/Down to scroll text STRATEGIES Glyphs Glyphs are mysterious crystals scattered in the ocean depths, tucked in narrow submerged niches, drifting buoyantly in water tubes and resting in the great stone bowls in the sky. The secrets that the Glyphs protect are as old ad timeless as the sea itself. Glyphs hold the essential secrets of the stream of time. Sing to them(Button A) or touch them(Button B) to gain their powers. * Key Glyphs give clues and messages. They may also impart new songs needed to continue the journey. * Puzzle Glyphs must be joined with others of their kind in order to release their powers. * Barrier Glyphs push Ecco away. See if you can discover how to get past them. * Cracked Glyphs heal quickly, but can only be passed by when they are cracked. * Broken Glyphs must be pieced together; then Ecco can receive their gifts. * Milestone Glyphs appear as point markers in certain levels. Use Ecco's song to awaken them. When activated, Milestone Glyphs elongate, and retain everything you accomplish in the level. If Ecco fails, by losing all his health or air, you have the option of continuing the level, or restarting from the beginning. Whichever choice you make, Ecco must reawaken the Milestone Glyph to keep it active.(The level can only be continued if the Glyph is maintained in its elongated shape). Solving Problems Ecco's world is an incredibly beautiful, yet deadly dangerous place. Most undersea life is Ecco's enemy! Use songs to ward off attackers, or charge to dissolve them into sea foam. Some enemies, such as the Giant Medusa, are so quick and threatening that only your wits or a hint from a Glyph can save Ecco. Rocks, shells and island barriers will block Ecco's progress. Ecco may be caught in overpowering currents, or in deep channels far from the surface with its life-giving air. Earthquakes, rock falls and other disasters will plague Ecco's quest. For every obstacle, there is a solution. it may be in a message from another creature, nestled on the ocean floor or waiting in a Glyph. It could even be in the sky! Rescuing Lost Orcas A worried Orca has lost her young children! Ecco must find them and guide them back to their mother's side. When you locate a lost Orca, make Ecco glide slowly over him, close to his back and a little ahead of him. Try to swim in the direction he's going. If he turns, wait a few seconds and he'll turn around again. When he sings to Ecco and begins swimming along, he's ready to follow. Now Ecco can lead him safely back to his family. Teleporting The waters abound with teleport rings made only for Ecco by the farsighted Atlanteans. Ecco can speed through the rings to cover vast distances in a few moments. Teleport rings swiftly transport Ecco to distant lands and seas. * Swim into a teleport ring you find in the water. Ecco will begin an amazing 3-D obstacle course. He must swim or leap through the teleport rings, both underwater and suspended in the air, in order to reach his next destination. * When Ecco passes through a ring, it chimes and advances him many miles toward his goal. * When Ecco misses a ring, it makes a dull sound, and one of the Ring Icons in the upper left of the screen disappears. * If Ecco succeeds with enough teleport rings, he reaches the next level. If he loses all the Ring Icons, he must try again. * Floating nautilus shells release a poison that can diminish Ecco's health meter. Steer Ecco away from the red, toxic bubbles to protect him. If he loses all his health, you must begin the level over. * Ecco breathes effortlessly during teleportation and does not need an air meter. Pulsars Sing to a Pulsar to gain its power. Then press Button A twice quickly to emit a devastating 360 sonar blast. * Pulsars appear as curves spreading from a central point. * The Pulsar's power is unlimited, it can be used as often as you choose, and it lasts until you clear the level or start the level over. Morphing Charge metaspheres to transform Ecco into other lifeforms and use their special powers. * When morphed, Ecco takes on the form and attributes of another creature, but he loses his own powers. In particular, Ecco cannot sing while transformed. * A transformed Ecco can touch a metasphere again to regain his dolphin form. * Accidents, collisions or injury can also cause Ecco to lose his morphed shape. * On Ecco's map, metaspheres appear as glowing solid spheres. They can be underwater or suspended in the air. Ecco: The Tides of Time Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Ecco doesn't have an air meter when the game starts, he still possesses powers bestowed on him by the Asterite. * Ecco's air meter isn't needed during the teleportation stages. He can remain underwater indefinitely without needing air. * Songs are Ecco's sonar. Use them often to explore the dolphin's world. Experiment with songs; they can do surprising things. * Make echolocation a habit. Send out echoing songs in all directions to get a full view of the ocean scene. * Watch for glyphs wherever Ecco travels, and look for them with his songs. Try not to miss any of them; most of them are important! * Search for moveable rocks and unusual sea life. Figure out how to use them. Try charging to break barriers or fight through currents. * Avoid enemies by swimming slowly. Always move cautiously in unexplored waters, and use echolocation to map Ecco's way. Going slow is sometimes the quickest way to move ahead. * Save ALL the lost Orcas. Ecco will be rewarded with abilities that will help him overcome future obstacles. * Succeeding with the rings takes some practice, but the rewards are well worth your efforts.

Ecco the Dolphin heard that to find Big Blue, you have to open the Door Crystals. These are strange jewels that are the doors to the oceans beyond home. Ecco, and his two ocean friends Tara, the young orca, and Kitnee, the baby bottlenose dolphin, are very playful. They are also curious. They are ready to search for the wide, friendly giant, Big Blue. They found out that the Door Crystals will open if they perform a task for each Crystal. Some Door Crystals want them to find lost friends or misplaced toys. Others want them to play tag. Still other Door Crystals want to hear music. When the Door Crystals get their wish from Ecco and his friends, they open to another ocean, a little closer to the Endless Sea and Big Blue. Each ocean is a wonderful playground. Rays fly through the water. Seahorses wait to see you. The stonefish look just like rocks, and the jellyfish don't really look like jelly. Look for seals, inky squids and crawly crabs.

One is a middle-aged man, the other a young attractive girl with beautiful blond hair. In the dim light, a heated discussion takes place over Vincente DeMarco, the kingpin of the mob in New York. "You have not heard from DeMarco yet?" asks the woman. "Don't pressure me! It will take a few more years to complete construction of the Empire State Building. In order to minimize the time, we will have them build the Hastur Shrine inside the building. Be patient, there will only be a slight delay." The blond woman nods, showing a little discontent. However, one obstacle stands in the way of their scheme. "How should we deal with Annet?" The woman pulls out a photo of a younger girl with tanned skin. "Don't worry, I have asked DeMarco to deal with her. I expect that she will no longer cause problems within a few days." After a brief silence, malevolent smiles appear on their faces. "All that we will have to do then, is to perform the ceremony to summon Lord Hastur." The flames of the candles quiver as the shadows of the two are swallowed up in pitch darkness. An Evil Alliance It is the year of 1928 when the Hastur group, which worships the evil Hastur, god of the winds, is attempting to fulfill its great ambition: to resurrect Hastur. They are planning to perform the ceremony to summon Hastur by sacrificing a young woman, Restiana, a descendant from Hastur. To that end, they prepare to bring a huge skyscraper into Manhattan as a shrine for the summoning of Hastur. They have asked Vincente DeMarco to collaborate with them. The shrine will tower so high, it will pierce the sky to convey the magical powers of Hastur. This shrine will be known as the Empire State Building. There is, however, an obstacle to their scheme which they cannot ignore. That obstacle is a young woman named Annet, who succeeded in containing Hastur and taking control of his tremendous power. She is distantly related to Hastur and is the only human capable of conquering the wicked god. The Battle Begins The scene is New York, 1928. Suddenly, Annet, who is walking on a quiet street, senses danger. She hears a sound like a balloon popping. As Annet turns around to look back, bullets whiz by and barely miss her cheek. The ones firing the gun are hitmen sent by DeMarco at the request of the Hastur group. This is the beginning of the gruesome battle against the Hastur Group.

El Viento Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Items and Spells Items Various items appear during the game that help Annet. These items are positioned throughout the stages of the game. The player must discover the use of each item. Spells Annet may cast five types of spells by taking advantage of the strength of the wind. At the beginning of the game, only one spell is available. As she picks up items containing spells throughout the stages, she will be capable of casting a greater variety of spells. Use of Spells The following steps must be taken to select a spell. Press the C Button to use your magic and a box displaying the spell "Fire ball" will flicker on the far left in the list of magic shown in the upper right of the screen. Keep holding down the button and the flickering will move to the next spell, and the next, moving to the right within the spells acquired, while consuming MP. In short, continuing to press the button allows the player to select a spell as he or she expends MP. The spells on the left are the least powerful, and those on the right are the most powerful. The more powerful the spell, the more MP will be used. Types of Spells Basically, the spells which Annet casts relate to the wind and utilize everything contained in the air. Some may seem to be spells of other natural forces, such as Flame or Water. Introduction of Spells Here are some of the five spells available for Annet: Fire Balls The least powerful spell at all, but rather easy to use. This spell creates a special flame by combining oxygen with other elements. The flame flies straight and creates a small explosion when it hits an enemy. Still, its destructive power has much greater magnitude than the bladed boomerangs. Water Current A water spell, as the name indicates. This spell creates current by combining oxygen in the air with hydrogen, whose water pressure damages enemies. Its destructive power has the same magnitude as the fire ball. Its special quality of flowing downward allows it to defeat many enemies at one time. Explosion A spell bringing the same magnitude of destructive power as that of Hastur, an evil god presiding over the wind, into use. Its awesome destructive power destroys anything around it. Because of its power, it requires high MP, which is hard to accumulate. Wind Cutter This spell forms a vacuum in the air to cut through enemies with the same process as the "weasel's slash." In addition to its power, it spreads over a wide area, making it so effective that a player should take advantage of it frequently. El Viento Characters Use Up/Down to scroll text Annet The heroine of this story is seventeen years old. Annet was brought up in a village deep inside Peru, where the evil god, Hastur, is worshipped. Two years ago, an explorer named Earnest Evans found her, took her into his custody, and brought her to the United States. Annet is a sorceress who has an accursed blood relationship with Hastur; she is the only person capable of containing Hastur. She has become a master of wind spells since she first contained Hastur and took possession of his tremendous energy two years ago. For that reason, she is the target of attacks by the Hastur Group. Though courageous, she reveals her scatterbrained, shy and retiring personality in unretouched portraits which show her at peaceful moments. Earnest Evans A thirty-one year old archaeologist and experienced explorer. Two years ago, he successfully prevented the Hastur Group from fulfilling its scheme of resurrecting Hastur by using Annet. Thereafter, he adopted her as his daughter. Earnest Evans and Vincente DeMarco are arch rivals who have battled against each other in their quests to recover treasures. He consistently remains a lone wolf while DeMarco manipulates the mob organization. Earnest Evans stays busy traveling to archaeological sites all over the world, seeking precious relics. Modest as he is, he calls himself a treasure hunter; and yet he possesses a Ph.D. degree, and is an influential figure at meetings of the Association of American Archaeologists. These are only some of his numerous talents. Zigfried A twenty-seven-year-old German. He abandoned his economically and politically broken homeland after the first World War, and smuggled himself into the United States. Vincente DeMarco recognized his great talents and made Zigfried his right-hand man. Then, after an incident two years ago, Zigfried broke with DeMarco and turned against him. He goes by the name "Zig" and has made friends with Earnest and Annet to some extent. He has an unusual degree of knowledge about the Hastur Group and seems to be very ambitious. With his startling handsome face, his clever eyes seem always to hold a sneering laugh. Restiana A young woman, seventeen years old. The rival of Annet. Like Annet, she descends from Hastur, and is a candidate to serve as a sacrifice during the summoning of Hastur. The Hastur Group members have lied to Restiana that she will be able to take possession of great power by taking possession of Hastur, and are attempting to entice her into being a sacrifice. Restiana is unyielding and tends to act arbitrarily on her own authority; she is trying to resurrect Hastur on her own. Henry Bishop of the Hastur Group, fifty-two years old. Henry has been making arrangements throughout this entire operation to summon Hastur. He is the head of the group and has handled many schemes on a grand scale. Henry lacks many of the characteristics of a human, presumably because of his fanatic dedication for many years; he is Hastur's henchman, his minion. Vincente DeMarco The ultimate boss of the New York mob. DeMarco, who became a prominent figure in the United States underworld with the sale of bootleg liquor and with violence, has received a huge sum of advance money from the Hastur group and is collaborating with the group to summon Hastur. In the past, when the group asked DeMarco to help in the summoning, it was disrupted and the scheme ended in failure. Now, DeMarco lobbies the government to construct the Empire State Building, along the Hudson River, whose location is appropriate both with respect to geography and direction for the summoning, then to renovate the interior into a shrine for Hastur. Hastur The name may be pronounced as "Ha-su-too-ru." One of the gods far beyond the understanding of mankind who presides over the wind. He is often called the "Evil god," which does not describe his nature exactly. Hastur bases his actions not on wicked intentions, but toward his own goals which are beyond the understanding of mankind. Hastur has not the slightest concern for mankind, and does not care whether mankind lives or dies. The truly wicked enemy should be considered the Hastur Group, which attempts to resurrect Hastur, who is contained in Seraeno of the Hiyadesu Cluster, to destroy the earth.

The major source of fear among citizens of the world is the terrorist organization known as "E.Y.E." There appears to be no end to the pure havoc they are capable of creating. Life, as we know it, is in serious danger of vanishing! Realizing the potential results of E.Y.E.'s continued dominance, the government has sent for a group of soldiers who have been trained for just such a situation- "E-SWAT!" E-SWAT stands for "Enhanced Special Weapons and Tactics." These specially-trained defenders of free society may be the final obstacle between E.Y.E. and total control of Earth! The E-SWAT troopers are master marksmen, and are among the fastest, strongest and most agile people alive. Wearing state-of-the-art Ice Combat suits, they set out to shut the door once and for all on E.Y.E., and insure a long, safe future for people of all nations. However, the leaders of the terrorist syndicate are aware that the E-SWAT troopers are on their way, and have prepared some special surprises for our heroes. Do you deserve to join the ranks of E-SWAT? You'll find out soon enough- 8 different missions lie ahead, each with its own traps and perils. In order to successfully run E.Y.E. into the ground for good, you must complete every mission, and survive to tell the story. The world's future hangs in the balance- do your duty, and help E-SWAT to win this crucial struggle! E-Swat Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text D-Button: * Press up or down to highlight different options in the Options menu. * Press left or right to view sub-options in the Options menu. * Press down to make your soldier squat in tight areas. * Press up to jump higher, or down to jump down (used in conjunction with Button C). * Press left or right to move your soldier through each mission, or to fire in either direction. Press up and hold to fire at enemies above you. * When using the Burner, press up to fly higher. Press left or right to fly in either direction. Start Button: * Press to advance through the Title and Options screens. * Press to start the game. * Press to pause the action, and to resume play. Buttons A, B, and C: * These buttons can be used interchangeably to Select, Attack and Jump. Choose the function of each button when the Options screen appears. E-Swat Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Your objective is to use your troopers' Weapons and agility to move through each of 8 grueling Missions. The successful completion of each Mission brings you one step closer to closing the E.Y.E. for good. To move on to the next Mission, you must destroy the final obstacle in the Mission you're fighting. It's not necessary to blow away everyone and everything in each scene, but you can't advance without annihilating the last helicopter, machine, or monster. When you see an arrow with the word GO inside of it, you should move your trooper in the direction of the arrow to continue the game. The Weapon Indicator tells you which of your Weapons is presently in use. At the beginning of the game, you have the use of regular fire, or SHOT. Later, you'll come across certain Items that give you different capabilities. To select a Weapon, press the Select Button. The box denoting the Weapon in use lights up. Each time you press the button, the box to the immediate right lights up. You should continue pressing the Select Button until the box representing the Weapon you want to unleash is highlighted. Watch your Life Gauge carefully. In the first 2 Missions, it consists of 4 bars. After that, however, with the more treacherous Missions come added bars. The size of the gauge also depends on the level you're playing. If the Remaining Troopers indicator reads 00, and all bars on the Life Gauge are white, the game is over. Of course, GAME OVER appears. The jet-pack built into your man's Ice Combat suit will save you in the most threatening situations. Don't let the Energy run down, though, because it takes a bit of time to recharge. * When the Burner Meter is in the red zone, you can make use of the FIRE Item. * When the Burner Meter reads in the red zone, you can move your trooper in either direction during flight. He is also capable of hovering. * When the Burner Meter is down in the yellow zone, he's unable to move around in the air. He still has hovering capability, though. * When the bars on the Burner Meter all turn white, that means that your Burner Energy has been completely used up. Give it a short time to re-energize. NOTE: In the 5th Mission, you need to use a slightly different technique in order to maneuver your trooper safely. Some sections are very tight, and there are many areas that are unsafe for foot travel. Pressing the Jump Button quickly and repeatedly should give you a bit more control for those more precise movements. E-Swat Items Use Up/Down to scroll text You'll occasionally come across some small, square boxes. These boxes, when picked up, provide you with new Weapons to use against E.Y.E., Energy for your Life Gauge, a new trooper, or a full supply of Energy for your Burner. The symbol for each Item is as follows: Shot: This is the only Weapon that you have when you start out. This isn't such a liability, though, because when you and an enemy fire at the same time, your shot erases his shot. In a sense, it's both an offensive and defensive Weapon. Use it well, and it'll take you far. Super: By acquiring and selecting this function, you gain rapid-fire capability. Press and hold the Attack Button to fire continuously. R.L. (Rocket Launcher): You can fire 2 Rockets in rapid succession, but then for a very short interval, the Launcher is non-operational. P.C. (Plasma Charge): Normally, the charge is rather small. You can fire often, but the damage you cause is minimal at best. Let the charge build up until you see a glowing ball at the end of your trooper's hand, and then let 'er rip. At full power, this Weapon's strength is incredible! Fire: This may be the single most devastatingly powerful Weapon available to you, but take care and remember 2 things-first, you can only use this Item when your Burner Meter is in the red zone. Secondly, it can only be used once. When used, it is sure to cause serious damage to all soldiers and most machines in the area. After using the FIRE Item, your Burner will need some time to recharge, so don't expect to do any flying right away. NOTE: If your trooper doesn't attain the rank of "E-SWAT," all Weapons other than SHOT will be unavailable. Check the rank of your soldier at the beginning of each mission. Some items will give you extra Life, or Energy for your Burner: Life Up: Taking this Item gives you 2 more colored bars in your troopers's Life Gauge. Life Max: If you pick up this Item, your Life Gauge will be filled (symbol is blue). Burner Max: Picking this Item up gives you a complete supply of Energy for your Burner. This may return to you the use of the jet-pack, or allow you to unleash the FIRE Item (symbol is red). 1 Up: If you latch on to one of these, you get another trooper to help you continue the fight. Check the Remaining Troopers indicator at the bottom right of the screen. E-Swat Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Be sure to remember the function of each of the buttons on your Control Pad. There is no let-up in the action, and the tiniest slip could do you in! * Learn the benefit of each Item symbol, and the best situations in which to use them. Fire, for example, can only be used once. If you misuse it, you'll be without it in a situation where it just might have saved you! * You can make your trooper squat by pressing the D-Button down. Every Mission contains areas where you can't survive without squatting down-either to avoid fire, or to move in cramped quarters. Learn to make your soldier squat without moving left or right! * Don't forget that the machines must be hit more than once by regular fire, or they will keep coming at you. You may want to call up one of the other weapons you've collected, unless you're very agile and can avoid the enemy contraptions long enough to disintegrate them. The troopers of Enhanced Special Weapons And Tactics are extremely good, but they don't stand a ghost of a chance without you at the controls. They're waiting for you right now! Suit up and let's get cracking! Bury E.Y.E., and save the world from a horrible fate!

Eternal Champions Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Learn to use taunts to disrupt your opponent's special moves. * When playing as Shadow, use her special Shadow Mode move at the beginning of each match. * Offense is the key when playing as Rax. Use combos, overloads, and Jet Knee Smashes to dominate your enemies. * When Slash is cornered, break out with the Running Head-Butt move. * Have Midknight attack at close range, that's when he's the most dangerous. * Phase often when using Jetta and then spend your time on a hit-and-run style offense. WARNING: The following section may contain spoilers to different sections of the game. Read at your own risk! The Eternal Champion may attack you in 5 different forms, each with its own fighting style. Below you will find information about the Eternal Champion, in the same order as listed: Form, Shape, Strength, and Weakness. 1. Void; Human; Limited Invicibility; Jumping Attacks. 2. Earth; Tiger; Speed; Jumping Attacks/Throws. 3. Water; Shark; Energy Fin; Jumping Attacks/Throws. 4. Air; Eagle; Flying Claw Attack; Jump Kicks. 5. Fire; Dragon; Shield/Fireballs; Toe to Toe Brawling. XAVIER Xavier's Strengths: * Singapore Cane Whip (Z button). * Throws: (Towards + Any Punch). * Midas Touch (Away for .5 seconds, Towards + Y). * Jumping Attacks (up + C & up + Z). Xavier's Weakness: * Get hiim in the corner and throw him repeatedly. * He doesn't do much damage when he hits you. Xavier Vs. Void: * If you use the Z-Button too much he will turn invincible. * Jumping attacks will work great if you start them at the proper distance. If Eternal Champion uppercuts you, you were too close to him when you started your attack. * If the Eternal Champion attacks you from the air, block then immediately move in for a throw. This works very well against him. * When he floats into the air and fires 5 orbs of light, he is vulnerable when he lands. This is a great opportunity for a throw. * When you beat him you want to stand over his body, so as he reanimates, you can throw him. Xavier Vs. Shark: * If you use the Z-Button too much, E.C. will use his shark fin attack. You can block (it will hurt you a little) or repeatedly jump over it. * Jumping attacks work best against the Shark. When he jumps at you, block and throw. Xavier Vs. Tiger: * Fight him as you would fight Jetta. Use throws!!! * This works well when he is using his speed spell: (up diagonal + Z) right after you hit him (up, away, diagonal + Z). You will hit him and he will jump to counter attack and run into your kick. * If he spins towards you, use the Midas touch. Xavier Vs. Eagle: * Jumping Attacks work best against the Eagle. * If he is using his charge attack (similar to Midnight's attack), he is vulnerable when he looks into the air. While he is in flight, you can use the Midas touch on him. Xavier Vs. Dragon: * The dragon is the toughest opponent that you will face. * Jumping attacks work well; once again if he uppercuts you, you were too close. * A good strategy: Get in his face and keep pressing the Y Button. When he reaches back to throw a fireball, you will smack him in the face. Stay close and keep this up. * If he starts flashing Orange--RUN! It is a personal shield. SLASH Slash's Strengths: * Throw: (Towards + Z). * Jump Kick: (Jump + C). * Jumping Club Smash: (Jump Away + C). Slash's Weakness: * He doesn't taunt, so stick to your special moves. * He is a sucker for a jump kick followed by a strong punch to the face. Slash Vs. The Eternal Champion (All Forms): * Use the Jump Kick; if the Eternal Champion uppercuts you then you were too close when you started your jump. Slash has one combination that works well against all of the other forms of the Eternal Champion, but make sure you are approximately 2 Character Lengths away from the Eternal Champion. 1. Stun: (Jump up + Z). 2. Jump Kick: (Jump Towards + C). 3. Wait 1 second: (Towards + Z). Step back and repeat this pattern. SHADOW Shadow's Strengths: * Shadow Mode (Hold A+B+C). * When you are in Shadow Mode, don't throw your opponent. You can hit him or her with five strong punches while you are in Shadow Mode. If you land these punches, your opponent will be stunned when you come out of Shadow Mode. This is a great time to throw your opponent. * Long Jump Kick (Jump + A (flip) while still in air + B). * Disappearing (Hold X+Y+Z). Shadow's Weakness: * When Shadow throws a smoke bomb, she turns invisible. When she disappears, wait approximately 2 seconds and jump into the air. She will appear next to you and throw a shuriken. If you timed your jump correctly, her shuriken will pass underneath you and as you land, you can throw her. Shadow Vs. Void: * Use Jumping attacks. If the E.C. uppercuts you, then you were too close when you started your attack. If your distance is correct, he will jump to counterattack and you will kick him. * When he floats into the air and fires five orbs of light at you, dodge the orbs, and throw him as he lands. Shadow Vs. All Other Forms: * Start as close to the Eternal Champion as you can and throw him when he appears. Go into Shadow Form as soon as possible and attack. * Jump kicks are also very effective. BLADE Blade's Strengths: * Personal Shield (Hold X+Y+Z). * Mule Kick (Crouch + C). * Counterattacks (Block and throw immediately). * Any Kick Combination starting with the A Button. Blade's Weakness: * Blade can't stop jumping attacks. Blade Vs.

TRIDENT Trident's Strengths: * Freeze (Hold A + B). * Plasma Bolt (Hold Back + Forward + Z). * Face Grind (Hold X+Y+Z). * Double Leg Jump Kick (Jump + C). * Walk towards your opponent and continuously press (Z). * The Combo of Death (Plasma Bolt + Face Grind + Face Grind + Throw + Throw). Trident's Weakness: * None found. Trident Vs. The Eternal Champion (All Forms Except Dragon): * Start two character lengths away from your enemy and jump kick; if he counterattacks from a standing position, you were too close when you started your attack. If he counterattacks from the air, you were too far when you started your attack. If you are the correct distance, he will jump to counterattack, and you will hit him. If you can catch the Eternal Champion with the Plasma Bolt, immediately follow with the Face Grind. Trident Vs. Dragon: * Walk towards him and continuously use your overhead smash (Z). When he reaches back to throw a fireball you will hit him in the face. If he flashes orange, you need to stay away from him. MIDKNIGHT Midnight's Strengths: * Lunge of Terror (hold back for .5 seconds, then push forward + Z). * Throw (towards + any punch button). * Overhead Smash (get within throwing distance and hold A+B+C). * Energy Drain (get within throwing distance and hold X+Y+Z). Midnight's Weakness: * You can walk towards him and repeatedly kick for the stomach. When he turns to mist, block and as he rematerializes, throw him. Midnight Vs. The Eternal Champion (All Forms): * Block all attacks and immediately counterattack with a throw or an energy drain (you need as much energy as you can get against this guy). If he gives you the distance, use the Lunge of Terror. RAX Rax's Strengths: * Powerful Attacks. * Overload (Hold A+C). * Thrust Punch (Hold X+Y+Z). * Thrust Kick (Hold A+B+C). * Watch Your Opponent's Front Foot; when it moves press Crouch + Button C. Rax's Weakness: * If Rax's attacks are blocked, he is vulnerable to throws. Rax Vs. The Eternal Champion (All Forms): * Block his jumping attacks and immediately throw (Towards + Any Punch). Get approximately two character lengths away from the Eternal Champion and (Jump Towards + C). If he counterattacks from the ground, you were too close when you started your attack. If he counterattacks from the air, you were too far when you started your attack. You can also let the Eternal Champion come close to you and hit him with an Overload. LARCEN Larcen's Strengths: * Inner Strength returns rapidly. * Long Straight Punch (Y) or (Z). * Sai Throw (Back, Forward + Y). * Larcen throws opponents well (Towards + Any Punch). * Reflect Back (Hold Back, wait for projectile to approach Forward + X). Larcen's Weakness: * No Superhuman Powers. * If you try to Block then Throw, Larcen usually throws a Sai. Larcen Vs. The Eternal Champion (All Forms Except Dragon): * Get approximately two character lengths away and press Jump + Button B. When you hit him, jump away and repeat this pattern. If he disrupts your pattern, throw Sais. Sai throwing works best against the Eagle. Larcen Vs. The Dragon: * Get in his face and keep pressing the Y and Z Buttons. When he reaches back to throw a fireball, you will hit him in the face. Do not throw Sais at the Dragon, he will activate his personal shield and make you very sad.

There are many hidden free lives to help you on your quest to save the Princess. Look everywhere for them! Suit Energy: (just to the right of "worms left") This is the percentage of energy the suit has left. Whenever you are attacked by an enemy, touched by an enemy or generally do something stupid this number goes down. If this number reaches zero you will lose one life. Additional energy can be found floating throughout the levels, or when you defeat an enemy. Plasma Shots: (in the lower left corner) This is the number of rounds of plasma energy you have left to fire. Additional energy clips can be picked up while you are playing, but you must use your shots carefully as many enemies await you. If you run completely out of shots, the plasma gun automatically recharges itself very slowly by gathering energy from around it, but it is strongly advised not to let the gun run out of ammo. ITEMS Plasma Power: Each time you pick up one of these you get an additional 250 rounds of plasma power. Plasma shots are limited so get as many of these as you can find! Mega Plasma: The Big Wally of plasma detonation! This weapon will generally wipe out anything you can point it at and fire! Every time you collect one of these you only get one mega-shot, so use them wisely! Suit Power: Atomic energy that the suit needs to function. Collecting these items increases your overall suit energy. More healthy than a big bowl of chicken soup. Super Suit Power: We're talking full suit power. Like a double espresso and a hunk of cheesecake, prepare to be energized to the extreme! Asteroid Shields: During the Rock Races, grab these to protect yourself from colliding with the asteroids. Atomic Accelerator: Catch one of these power gems to throw yourself into overdrive. Useful for a quick burst of speed to avoid Psy-Crow. Fuel Pods: While racing, grab these items for fun and profit.

Don't let the size of Bob's kitten guards fool you--they're just as powerful as the cats!! Hamsters galore! Snot a Problem: Bungee jumping is scary enough without Major Mucus trying to bash you into the walls, but that's exactly his plan. As your bungee cord gets thinner and thinner, your life hangs on a few measly threads!!! But that's not all. Mucus Phlegm Brain is waiting for you to get too close to the pool of snot or fall in--he's waiting for lunch! Level 5: The Professor would love to have Earthworm Jim on the dissection table, but that darn super suit keeps him safe. The Professor wants that suit back--after all, he designed it for the Queen. Of course, he could make another one...if only that darn monkey hadn't eaten the blueprints. That's another can of worms entirely.

Relive the horror (if you can find it) and find your way out! Andy Asteroids: Ready for a wild ride through space? Well hold on to your seat because between each level Psy-Crow is right on your tail! Dodge the asteroids and try knocking Psy-Crow off his rocket backpack to help you get to the finish line alive. Grab the Atomic Accelerators along the way to leave Psy-Crow eating your heavy ions. Of course if you're traveling that fast, you'll want to stock up on shields...unless you're an expert pilot. For Pete's Sake: Walking the dog was never like this!!! If you let little Peter fall, watch out--his temper gets the best of him and he mutates into a ravenous hulking giant!

Buttville: It's dark, there's lightning in the distance, and you've got to keep your head in order to stay alive. You're now facing the Queen and her minions head to head, so use yours. The Queen is using her control over all the insects in order to stop you. Everywhere you turn, one of her followers is going to be there. You may think it's hopeless, but it's Snot. Try to control your every move here. Any mistakes will probably be your last. Earthworm Jim Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Try not to stay in the same place too long. As a moving target, Jim is a lot tougher to hit. * Limit your firing to short bursts of plasma. This will help you save much needed rounds for later. * Use your head--literally! Your whip-like head can do more than destroy your enemies. You can use it to swing from place to place. Hmmm...what sort of thing could you swing from? Using your head more often will often help you to save your ammunition for the bosses. * Don't be afraid to make a leap of faith. With a part-time propeller for a head, Jim can gently glide down a chasm that he's leapt into--even though you couldn't see where he was going to land. * Sometimes hanging around isn't such a hot idea and you'll need to get out of somebody's way. Just pull yourself up by your bootstraps (you'd be amazed at how many enemies don't look up...). * Surrounding yourself with Earthworm Jim action figures, watching the new television show and buying anything with Earthworm Jim, the Playmates logo, or Shiny Entertainment's logo on it will automatically make you the coolest person in your neighborhood. * Gather as many atoms as you can before the end of each stage. You'll need as much energy as you can get to defeat the bosses. And watch your plasma gun's energy level--recharging only seems to take longer when you're in a jam. * Open your eyes and search around. There are many secrets to be found. Closely look at what you see, for many secrets are off the screen... * There are a ton of goodies on each level. If you can't find a way to get to something you see, the answer may lie just ahead, or below, or above you, or this-away, or that-away... * To keep Psy-Crow out of the action, you've got to beat him in the asteroid...race. Otherwise he'll give you problems on every level. (Lose a turn for not laughing at the asteroid joke.) * Defeating the Queen involves stopping her from laying eggs. Now, how can you do that? Don't you wish you stayed awake during health education? * Most of the time, keeping Peter moving along is the best plan of action. But how can you stop him, or slow him down, when you need to? Click. * Making cookies with butter-flavored shortening rather than butter or margarine keeps them from flattening out too much during baking. * Finding the can of worms is one way to get a continue, the other...well, that's fuel for though. * To see early credits and a hidden Andy Asteroid Stage, do the following: 1. Load up the game and press reset on the Genesis. 2. At the Sega logo, press Start. 3. Wait at the title screen until the screen with Earthworm Jim's face comes up with the stage's name above it. 4. Press start to skip through that. Repeat steps 1-4 several times. After a few tries, the game's credits will roll by and you will find yourself in a mysterious Andy Asteroid Stage.

EXILE.O

Exile Renovation To return to Now Playing, reset your adapter. GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME ITEMS BROWSE HELP FILES Exile Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text THE STORY Sadler, a man who fights for life with a belief in himself. Everything derives from nature. Mankind, too, enjoys the benevolent influence of nature in his life. But he has no way to cope once nature becomes violent with storms, floods, cold spells or other of nature's extremes. Mankind has perceived the ultimate power in the wonder of Nature. Presumably because he is attracted to the ultimate power, mankind has started to think that power determines everything. In this way the history of mankind has turned out to be a history of war. In wars, each country on each side believes that it is right and tends to justify killing as a way of fulfilling its objectives. Throughout history, people have taken sides for their own benefit. Countries with more power have conquered those with less power, again and again, until one has emerged as the super power. One day, the super power was destroyed in a revolt led by Sadler, wandering desert warrior, and the blazing desert returned to the peace it had once enjoyed. However, that peace did not last long. Sadler was once again drawn into war in the desert heat. The military of Luciel, a rival country, launched an indiscriminate attack on his land. Sadler has stood up again to defeat the Luciel military. The story begins at a fortress where the elite troops of the army headed by Sadler, hero of EXILE, gather for tactics near the village. A VILLAGE IN THE DUNES The villagers originally refused to go to war and loved peace. In the more recent past, however, they were forced to enter war and finally realized that they had to wage wars for peace and appeared to terminate the evil ambitions wherever unjustified war occurred. Among the villagers, Sadler has the greatest skills in swordsmanship and is idolized by them. Those who believe in their own way of life encounter each other, fight and create adventure. Sadler, desert warrior, came from the village in the dunes. His fight capability is equal to that of more than a hundred soldiers. Reportedly nobody has ever managed to escape his pursuit. Elite warriors seeking the Holimax! CHARACTER INTRODUCTION * Rumi: Agent of the Village in the Dunes who is endowed with fluency in eight languages as well as a body skilled in acrobatics. * Kindi: Trainer of soldiers who is equipped with such unfathomable power that reportedly he has never used his fighting abilities to their full extent in spite of his ever-victorious record. * Fakil: Magician of the Village of the Dunes whose powerful spells defeat enemies no matter which weapon they use. At Sadler's departure, Fakil lends him the magic stone of Kamul. Commander of Dune Calvary. This Calvary was originally assigned to support Luciel Forces. Since the forces become nothing but a group committed to violence, the Calvary revolted and started its fight to eliminate its former ally. A wandering minstrel of the Camu unit, side kick of the Dune Calvary. A figure with a mystic atmosphere surrounding his existence. A Priest who was deported because his preaching remained faithful to the teachings of the Shinso Sect. However, he continues to devote himself to the sect without changing his belief.

Each type of magic consumes a certain number of points and cannot be used if it requires more than the points at hand as shown in the MP gauge. The player will open the window in the action screen and select magic. Once you start using magic, it will work until you stop using it. Check the MP gauge regularly. * For offense, there are two types of magic: Fire and Ice, both in three levels. Fire exerts with pressure of sword forward. Ice causes damage to all enemies on the screen. Each swing of the sword requires a certain MP. * The magic Restoration keeps HP at a maximum. Since the frequent use of magic uses up MP quickly after suffering substantial damage, the use of the magic as a substitute for medicine is recommended. Short suggestion/guideline- Important messages and items appear on the action screen. There are many doors in action scenes.

Consequently, the masses have taken refuge underground, in the forests and in what's left of the cities. Ruler of the mutants in the region is Sluggo. He is ruthless, evil and (strangely enough) a neatness freak who watches his diet like a hawk. He is also bent on killing all those who look remotely human, namely the Ex-Mutants. Sluggo obtains slaves to labor in his Sluggtown by sending raiding expeditions into the neighboring areas. He controls the less obedient slaves with the mind-control caps created by his scientist assistant Zygote. Challenging their every move is Professor Kildare, a cyborg originally programmed to repopulate the planet with human race. He has recruited 6 courageous individuals and transformed them back into humans. It is this team of Ex-Mutants that have taken on Sluggo and his band of foul miscreants. The heart of the group is Shannon. She tends to be nice to everyone, even her obnoxious teammate, Bud. Ackroyd is the jokester of the team. He has an extreme curiosity about the earth before its destruction. Bud is the youngest on the team. He desperately wants to be the leader and always bites off more than he can chew. Tanya loves to tease, and uses her looks to get her way. She's not stupid, but tends to exercise her brains as a last resort. Piper, on the other hand, is the "brains" of the group. Like Ackroyd, she's interested in all aspects of predisaster history. The leader of the team is Dillon. He's the most cautious and caring of the bunch. While attacking one of Sluggo's outposts, Bud, Tanya, Piper and Dillon were captured. Sluggo is keeping them alive in the hopes of capturing the remaining Ex-Mutants and then killing them all at once. As Ackroyd or Shannon, it's up to you to rescue your comrades. You will have to wrestle hideous mutations and tackle myriads of traps until you come face to face with Sluggo. There is, however, a second problem. The power cells at the lab are nearly empty, and Kildare needs them to keep himself and the computers running. Without them, he will cease to exist. There is a power cell hidden in each platform stage. You must find it before you can go to the next stage.

GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES ExoSquad Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text One Hundred Years From Now, On the Planet We Call Earth... Man stretched outward toward the other planets of the solar system. Slowly, we humans began to "Terraform" Venus and Mars in order to relieve the stress on our overcrowded home world. EXOTECHNOLOGY was developed to assist in the development of these planets. This technology was the basis for our ExoSquad Operations Network (EON), which handles our interplanetary and planetary military and police operations. In 2040 our genetic researchers created the NEOSAPIENS. They were supposedly the next evolutionary step for human beings. Incredibly powerful, and with an intelligence that far surpassed normal Homo Sapiens, we used them in the Martian mines and factories. We, the Terrans (as we humans now call ourselves), have recognized the Neosapiens as a true race and not our 'pets'. We have tried to establish equality between the races. The Neosapiens want more than equality, it seems. Their leader, Phaeton, will stop at nothing less than Neosapien rule of the galaxy. If it ever comes to a war between Terrans and Neosapiens, the ExoSquad would be our only hope... ExoSquad Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text As a rule of thumb, the Start button always pauses the action of the game, no matter which mode you are in. If things are getting hairy, press Start to calm down for a minute before relaunching your assault! Due to the radically different views and styles of play of the Arcade and Duel modes, there are separate instructions for operating your E-Frame in each mode. When using Bronski's E-Frame during the side-scrolling levels, there are two control modes: Mode 1: Button A: * Press to activate shield (only lasts for one second). Button B: * Press to fire main gun. Hold for 2 seconds and release for a more powerful blast. Button C: * Press to activate jump. Hold down Button C to extend Bronski's jump. D-Pad: * Pressing Up moves the crosshairs up (counter clockwise). * Down moves the crosshairs down (clockwise). * Press left once to make E-Frame duck under shots. Press again to get up. * Right moves E-Frame to the right. Mode 2: Buttons A, B and C: * These functions are the same as in Mode 1. D-Pad: * Up moves the crosshairs up (counter clockwise). * Press down once to make E-Frame duck under shots, press again to continue walking. * Press left once to stop E-Frame, press again to continue walking. * Right moves the crosshairs down (clockwise). Arcade Flight Mode: When using Marsh's E-Frame on the flying levels, the controls are as follows: Button A: * Charge gun; hold for two seconds and release for a powerful blast. Button B: * Fires main gun; hold for continuous fire. Button C: * Press once to activate Quick Maneuvering System (QMS). This allows you to dodge and move more quickly. Press again to deactivate QMS. D-Pad: * Up moves E-Frame up (Stars level only). * Down moves E-Frame down (Stars levels only). * Left and right moves E-Frame in those directions. Duel Mode Controls: These controls are used when playing Duel Mode vs. the computer or another player, and also in the Arcade Mode when the player is using Rita's E-Frame. Button A: * Press to deliver an overhand blow to your opponent or to activate your shield when you are targeted by an opponent. Button B: * At close range: standard punch, or elbow punch if opponent is behind you. * At close range in flight: grab opponent. Press again to hit opponent. * At longer ranges: press once to activate crosshair targeting, press again to fire. * At longer ranges in flight: deploys crosshairs and fires a shot. * Hold for 2 seconds to launch a salvo of missiles. * Down and B: activates a rolling attack. Button C: * Deactivates crosshair targeting system. * Down and C: E-Frame drops to a prone position. * Towards an opponent and C: activates flying charge move. * Up and C: activates flipping somersault kick. * Back and C: activates swooping attack. D-Pad: * Up allows you to fly around on-screen. * Down activates a defensive crouch. * When lying prone, press Down to grab and kick an opponent if he is very close to you. * Forward closes in on an opponent. * Press back and your E-Frame can fly backwards away from an opponent. ExoSquad Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Press the Start button when you arrive at the title screen. To jump right into the game, press the Start button while the crosshair is at "Start game". This begins the adventure at the setting that appears at the bottom of the Main Menu screen. Using the D-Pad to move the crosshairs to "Options" and pressing Button B brings up the available options for you to choose from. Using the D-Pad to move the crosshairs to "Arcade Password" and pressing Button B allows you to enter a password you received after finishing a previous level, which allows you to begin at the last level you reached. The Options menu features multiple categories that allow you to tailor the game to your preferences. These categories include Identification, Sound Options, and Mode (Arcade or Duel). Use the D-Pad to move the crosshair to the desired section and press Button B to make your choice. The Identification option allows both players to enter their names. Use the D-Pad to maneuver the crosshairs to the letter(s) of your choice to name your E-Frame and press Button B to make your selection. If you make a spelling error, go to "Delete" and press Button B to remove the Incorrect letter(s). Once you have spelled the name you want to have entered into the game, move the crosshairs down to "Exit" and press Button B. The Sound Options include volume control, sound effects and a music test. There are two exciting and unique gameplay modes in ExoSquad. Depending on your mood, you can choose either the Arcade Mode and set off for an action-packed, multilevel adventure or pick the Duel mode for some down-and-dirty, one-on-one E-Frame battles! Either way, you are going to be piloting the toughest E-Frames in the galaxy in these far-off, far-out conflicts! As a reminder, in the Arcade Mode you will receive a Password after reaching a new level. Be sure to write it down! If you choose to play the Arcade Mode, the following options are yours: Level: This is the difficulty level for the Arcade Mode. Choose from Easy, Normal and Hard. Control: This allows you to select which control mode you wish to use during Arcade play. The control choices only apply to the side-scrolling stages when the player is using the Bronski E-Frame. In Mode 1 you control the E-Frame's walking, in Mode 2, the E-Frame walks automatically. If you choose to play the Duel Mode, the following options are yours: 1P vs. Computer: Selecting this option allows 1 player to fight against the computer. Under this option, the player can choose his E-Frame and the computer opponent's E-Frame. The list includes a selection of warriors from the ExoSquad and Neosapien forces, and a "Random" option which selects a new E-Frame for each round of battle. 1P vs. 2P: Selecting this option allows two players to battle each other in one-on-one combat. Under this option, each player chooses his or her E-Frame from a list of both ExoSquad heroes and Neosapien villains, or selects "Random" for a different E-Frame each round. Rounds: This option allows you to select the number of battles you fight before the game will return to the menu screen. Select 1 or 3 rounds for a quick skirmish, or go with 12 or Unlimited rounds for extended combat (unlimited rounds allows you to play indefinitely!). Level: This option allows you to select the difficulty level of the computer opponent. Choose from Novice (for beginning players), Standard (normal difficulty), or Expert (combat masters only). ExoSquad Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Arcade Mode: * The charge gun (hold Button B and then release) is a valuable tool against any enemy that takes more than one or two normal shots to destroy (especially level bosses!). * Practice keeping your finger holding down the B button at all times, releasing to fire and then immediately charging again. * Remember your shield (Button A). This makes you impervious to damage for several seconds, although it can only be used sparingly. * There are some points in the game where you cannot avoid taking damage unless you can shoot some enemies and shield against others simultaneously. * Each level boss has his own pattern. Experiment with different ways to defeat a boss; some require a jumping attack, with others you must destroy their weapons. * Carefully time your shield and charge gun and you will soon turn the level bosses into scrap metal. * Small power-up capsules are scattered throughout the arcade levels. Pick one up (kneel or fly through it) to boost your energy meter by three points. This will give you a chance to fight longer. * The Stars levels may seem impossible at first. Keep trying; there are patterns to defeat all of them. * Your charge gun can destroy the asteroids-use it constantly and dodge the rest and you should take little damage. * Activating the Quick Maneuver System (Button C) will make your E-Frame move much faster and help you out of some tight spots. Duel Mode: * Use your fighting ability often. You are more maneuverable and faster in the air than on the ground. * Your gun is very useful, but it can be shielded by the other player. Try to shoot at unexpected times: deploy your crosshairs and then wait before firing. * Using the above method you could get lucky and trick your opponent into shielding first; then fire quickly and nail him. * Your shield is your most valuable asset, even though it can only be used to block shots, not for hand-to-hand moves. * Your shield can be used almost continuously, and you can even move and shoot while it is activated. Develop strategies that make use of this. * For one strategy, you could use your shield as your opponent fires his gun, then use Button C for a flying charge move or Button A for an overhand blow to score a punishing hit. * When you fire your gun, you are vulnerable for several seconds after firing as your E-Frame recoils. * Use the gun from a distance and be ready to fly backward as soon as you recover, or you may get hit with a flying charge or flip kick. * Most moves can be used in the air the same way as on the ground. The flip kick, flying charge and overhand blow all can be done while flying-take advantage of this! * Your gun can't be independently aimed in the air, but you can fire and dodge more quickly. * Experiment with the grab and punch move (press Button B when next to opponent). It's tricky at first, but it's the most powerful move in the game and can set up some devastating combos!

Well, there's Reptilian Thugs roaming what's left of the streets, and repulsive Zipper Worms splashing around in the harbor. But that's not what you're looking for. Aha! You finally spot the Store, where you load up with weapons. You buy another Satellite Booster, hoist a Napalm Bomb over your shoulder, and grab a Treatment to keep up your strength. You're a Nameless One. You're powerful and quick and you never give up. You've only got one idea: FREE THE PLANET! You know the history of this desolate world. In ancient times the Human Beings ruled in peace and cooperation. Sure, they had their problems-cold wars, organized crime, nuclear bombs. But their little troubles seemed like nothing when the real War happened. Without warning space warships broke through the sky, loaded with fiendish aliens. Bombs, missiles, napalm, and fire rained down. The Human Beings weren't ready, and put up only a puny defense before surrendering! In a few hours it was all over. The vicious predators seized the planet and made it their den. They destroyed the cities and all communication lines. Worst of all, they enslaved all Human Beings into a life of misery and humiliation. The planet became the Dust World. The Human Beings were reduced to pitiful shreds of their former glory, living in dread of the hostile Aliens who infested their planet. But in a hidden place, a group of brave Human Beings raised two male children in secret. They brought up the young men as Warriors, training them for battle and the specialized use of lethal weapons. The gamble paid off! The two Warriors emerged as armed machines of might, strength, and super power - the Nameless Ones. As a Nameless One you've got to move quick, shoot fast, and show no mercy. You face vicious Aliens, repulsive monsters, and fire-belching machines. Your only rest is at the Store, where you load up with ammo and revive your strength. War is bad, but somebody's got to do it.

Dans ce sens au moins, c'est un sport universel. On n'a pas besoin de matÈriel dispendieux ou d'Èquipements dÈmesurÈs pour apprÈcier le football association, mais juste l'amour du jeu. Ne vous y trompez pas; de cette mÍlÈe de pieds voltigeurs et de bras agiles Èmergera la relËve de PelÈ, Maradona, Charlton et Cruyff. Pratiquement tous les pays du monde prennent part aux compÈtitions mondiales.Le football est de loin le sport le plus pratiquÈ et le plus regardÈ de la planËte. Mais ce n'Ètait pas le cas en 1904, lors de la crÈation de la FÈdÈration Internationale de Football Association (FIFA). Les sept membres fondateurs Ètaient tous europÈens: la Belgique, le Danemark, l'Espagne, la France, la Hollande, la SuËde et la Suisse. La GrandeBretagne a mis deux ans pour se joindre ‡ cette Association, bien que le premier prÈsident de la FIFA, D.B. Woolfall Ètait un Anglais. Pour tenir compte de la diversitÈ des Èquipes et de l'intÈrÍt manifestÈ partout dans le monde pour le football, le jeu ´FIFA International Soccerª comporte 48 Èquipes nationales. Le Cameroun a fait irruption sur la scËne mondiale lors de la coupe du monde 90 en Italie, et ´FIFA International Soccerª reflËte l'Èmergence d'Èquipes africaines impressionnantes. Mesurez le Cameroun ‡ d'autres pays plus rÈputÈs pour leur football, comme la Hollande, l'Allemagne ou le BrÈsil.

DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers la gauche ou la droite pour choisir le franÁais, l'anglais, l'allemand ou l'espagnol. Cette option n'est pas sauvegardÈe lorsque vous sortez de ´FIFAª, vous devrez donc la rÈactiver ‡ chaque partie. Mode de jeu DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers la gauche ou vers la droite pour choisir entre un match d'exhibition, de tournoi, d'Èliminatoire, de championnat, pour reprendre une partie ou regarder un match de dÈmonstration. Le mode exhibition est un match amical entre deux Èquipes de votre choix, et c'est aussi le mode par dÈfaut. Le mode tournoi vous permet de choisir entre une ‡ huit Èquipes pouvant participer ‡ un tournoi. Le mode Èliminatoire vous permet de sauter les matches de qualification et de passer directement aux Èliminatoires avec au moins seize Èquipes. Le mode championnat vous permet de faire le choix entre un maximum de huit Èquipes devant jouer les unes contre les autres pour le compte du championnat de la ligue. Vous pouvez reprendre une partie pour poursuivre les Èliminatoires ou les championnats. DISPOSITION DE L'…QUIPE Vous pouvez modifier la disposition des joueurs sur le terrain. DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers le haut ou le bas pour choisir les arriËres, les demis ou les ailiers, et dÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers la gauche ou la droite pour modifier la longueur de la flËche sur le terrain. La flËche des demis peut Ítre Ètendue dans les deux sens, vers l'attaque ou vers la dÈfense. STRAT…GIE D'…QUIPE DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers le bas pour activer la stratÈgie d'Èquipe et appuyez sur C pour l'Ècran de stratÈgie. DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers le haut ou vers le bas pour choisir l'une des options offertes. Les flËches changent de longueur en fonction de la stratÈgie choisie. DÈgagement : Les arriËres dÈgagent le ballon de leur camp; les demis et les avants courrent vers le ballon. Souvent appelÈe Route 1, cette stratÈgie est simple, directe et efficace si vous avez des avantcentres qui savent donner de bons coups de tÍte. Toutefois, les puristes trouvent cette stratÈgie dÈnuÈe de la finesse du jeu fondÈ sur les passes. DÈfense gÈnÈrale : Les joueurs restent tous derriËre le ballon afin d'Ècraser les attaquants par leur supÈrioritÈ numÈrique. Choisissez cette stratÈgie si vous craignez une attaque agressive des attaquants de l'Èquipe adverse, ou si la victoire ne tient qu'‡ un fil. Attaque : Une stratÈgie ouverte conÁue pour tirer le meilleur parti possible des possibilitÈs de marquer des buts; les arriËres et les demis soutiennent les avants. DÈfense : Une stratÈgie rigoureuse o˘ les milieux de terrain sont positionnÈs autour du rond central pour former une barriËre dÈfensive supplÈmentaire. Attaque gÈnÈrale : Tous les joueurs envahissent le camp adverse sans se prÈoccuper de dÈfendre leur but. ¿ utiliser lorsqu'on arrive ‡ la fin du match et que la dÈfaite semble de toute faÁon inÈvitable. FORMATIONS Voici les formations possibles : 352 : les milieux de terrain sont nombreux; ils essaient de s'emparer du ballon avant que les trois arriËres ne soient menacÈs et l'envoient aux avants. 442 : une formation ÈquilibrÈe mais conventionnelle, solidement pourvue d'arriËres et de demis; les avants doivent bien s'entendre pour marquer des buts. Balayeur : un joueur est envoyÈ ‡ l'arriËre pour prendre un rÙle dÈfensif plus libre. C'est la derniËre dÈfense lorsque son co-Èquipier le plus prËs est dÈbordÈ, mais il peut aussi avancer vers le centre et amener le ballon vers l'avant. 424 : malgrÈ le nombre restreint de demis, les quatre avants sont capables d'Ècraser les dÈfenses adverses par surprise. Cette formation est particuliËrement efficace combinÈe avec les stratÈgies d'attaque. 433 : une autre formation bien ÈquilibrÈe, avec l'accent mis sur l'attaque malgrÈ le nombre restreint de demis. …QUIPE DE D…PART Toute l'Èquipe est nommÈe, mais seuls les onze premiers vont sur le terrain. Lorsque le nom d'un joueur est activÈ, dÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers la gauche ou vers la droite pour connaÓtre ses qualitÈs. Si un joueur est renvoyÈ pour mauvaise conduite, vous serez ‡ court. Utilisez l'option de remplacement pour repositionner les autres joueurs de sorte ‡ boucher le trou. PILE OU FACE DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers le haut ou le bas pour choisir pile ou face. Appuyez sur C; l'arbitre jette la piËce en l'air et la laisse tomber par terre. Un message vous indique si vous avez gagnÈ ou perdu. Si vous avez gagnÈ, vous pouvez donner le coup d'envoi ou choisir quel cÙtÈ dÈfendre. DÈplacez le bouton directionnel pour choisir l'une des icÙnes, puis appuyez sur C pour confirmer votre choix. Pour choisir de donner le coup d'envoi, dÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers le bas pour activer l'icÙne reprÈsentant un ballon et appuyez sur C. Le drapeau d'Èquipe en haut de l'Ècran change, et les adversaires choisissent le cÙtÈ. Si vous perdez, vous Ítes ‡ la merci de vos adversaires. Si c'est ‡ vous de choisir, vous pouvez dÈcider de quel cÙtÈ jouer ou donner le coup d'envoi, comme si vous aviez gagnÈ. CONTR‘LE DES JOUEURS Vous contrÙlez le joueur marquÈ d'une Ètoile de couleur. Lorsque votre joueur n'a pas le ballon, seule la silhouette de l'Ètoile est affichÈe. Quand le joueur prend le contrÙle du ballon, l'Ètoile devient colorÈe. La couleur de l'Ètoile dÈpend du numÈro de contrÙleur que vous utilisez: ContrÙleur 1 : Jaune ContrÙleur 2 : Rouge ContrÙleur 3 : Bleu ContrÙleur 4 : Rose Appuyez sur B pour alterner entre les joueurs. L'Ètoile se place prËs du joueur le plus proche du ballon. DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers le haut, le bas, la gauche ou la droite pour diriger les mouvements du joueur activÈ. HORS JEU Le ballon est hors du champ de jeu lorsque toute sa circonfÈrence passe la ligne de touche ou la ligne de but, ce que l'arbitre donne par un coup de sifflet. Cela donne le choix entre trois faÁons diffÈrentes de recommencer le jeu. Coups de pied de but : Un attaquant lance loin du but et aucun dÈfenseur ne touche le ballon tandis qu'il passe la ligne de but. Le ballon est automatiquement placÈ dans le coin de la surface de but (du cÙtÈ o˘ le ballon est sorti). Appuyez sur A ou B et le gardien de but envoie le ballon dans le camp adverse. Ou encore, appuyez sur C; la boÓte de direction rouge vous permet de frapper le ballon de maniËre plus prÈcise. Utilisez le bouton directionnel pour activer la surface du terrain o˘ vous voulez que le ballon tombe. Appuyez sur A ou B pour un coup de pied de but plus prÈcis. Nota : AprËs un coup de pied de but, le ballon doit atteindre au moins la limite de la surface de rÈparation. Aucun autre joueur ne peut pÈnÈtrer dans la surface de rÈparation tant que le ballon s'y trouve. Coups de pied de coin : Lorsque le dernier joueur ayant touchÈ le ballon lorsqu'il passait la ligne de but est un dÈfenseur ou un gardien de but. Pour le coup de pied de coin, on place le ballon dans le quart de cercle tracÈ autour du drapeau de coin (du cÙtÈ o˘ le ballon est sorti). Le joueur qui frappe le ballon est choisi automatiquement. Utilisez le bouton directionnel pour placer la boÓte de direction rouge dans l'endroit o˘ vous voulez que le ballon tombe, puis appuyez sur A, B ou C pour donner le coup de pied. RentrÈes de touche : Une rentrÈe de touche se fait ‡ partir de la ligne de touche o˘ le ballon est sorti; elle est accordÈe lorsqu'un joueur envoie le ballon hors des limites du champ de jeu. Le joueur qui lance le ballon est choisi automatiquement. Le numÈro du contrÙleur est activÈ dans une Ètoile colorÈe au bas de l'Ècran. DÈplacez la boÓte de direction vers la partie du terrain o˘ vous voulez lancer le ballon, et appuyez sur A, B ou C. BALLON DU GARDIEN Il arrive que l'attaque n'aboutisse pas et que le ballon reste dans les bras du gardien de but. MÍme lorsque l'ordinateur choisit le gardien de but, le contrÙleur avec l'Ètoile de la couleur correspondante doit remettre le ballon en jeu. Le gardien de but peut envoyer le ballon ‡ l'autre bout du terrain en lui donnant un coup de pied ou en le lanÁant. Pour lancer : Appuyez sur A ou B et utilisez le bouton directionnel pour lancer le ballon vers un dÈfenseur proche. Pour donner un coup de pied : Appuyez sur C et activez la boÓte de direction rouge. Utilisez le bouton directionnel pour la diriger vers la partie du terrain o˘ vous voulez lancer le ballon; ensuite, appuyez sur B. Nota : Lorsque vous utilisez la boÓte de direction, gardez l'oeil sur le gardien de but pour voir si des adversaires empiËtent sur votre surface. Contrairement ‡ ce qui se produit avec le coup de pied de but, la surface de rÈparation n'est pas un lieu s˚r lorsque le gardien de but tient le ballon dans ses bras. INFRACTIONS Des coups francs sont accordÈs pour les fautes et les infractions techniques, par exemple les hors-jeu, les plaquÈs violents ou tardifs ou le fait de bousculer un joueur. Lorsque vous bÈnÈficiez d'un coup franc, le ballon est placÈ ‡ l'endroit o˘ l'infraction a eu lieu, et il est impossible de grignoter quelques mËtres en avan ant un peu avec le ballon. Un joueur est automatiquement dÈsignÈ pour donner le coup franc. Lorsque plus d'un joueur par Èquipe est contrÙlÈ par un joueur humain, celui contre qui la faute a ÈtÈ commise donne le coup de pied. Utilisez le bouton directionnel pour contrÙler la direction du tir. Appuyez sur B pour envoyer le ballon sur une petite distance au joueur le plus proche. Si vous Ítes en bonne position pour le faire, appuyez sur C pour tirer directement au but. Nota : Les joueurs adverses doivent demeurer ‡ 9 mËtres 15 du ballon jusqu'‡ ce que le coup de pied ait ÈtÈ donnÈ. Coups de pied de rÈparation Un coup de pied de rÈparation est imposÈ si une faute mÈritant un coup franc est commise dans la surface de rÈparation. Par consÈquent, la faute d'un dÈfenseur dans sa propre surface de rÈparation produit un coup de pied de rÈparation (‡ moins, bien s˚r, d'avoir choisi d'ignorer les fautes dans l'Ècran d'installation). ArrÍter un coup de pied de rÈparation : Le ballon est automatiquement placÈ sur le point de rÈparation. Seul votre gardien de but et le joueur qui donne le coup de pied peuvent pÈnÈtrer sur la surface de rÈparation. Les arriËres ne peuvent pÈnÈtrer dans cette zone qu'aprËs le coup de pied de rÈparation. MÍme si les gardiens de but sont contrÙlÈs par l'ordinateur, vous devez essayer de bloquer le ballon. Au moment de toucher le ballon, dÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers la gauche ou la droite, puis appuyez sur B pour plonger dans la bonne direction (on l'espËre!). Donner un coup de pied de rÈparation : L'ordinateur nomme automatiquement le joueur qui donnera le coup de pied de rÈparation; celui-ci reste dans la surface de rÈparation en attendant le tir. Appuyez sur B pour changer de joueur. Maintenant, c'est vous contre le gardien de but. Appuyez sur A ou sur C pour lancer, et utilisez le bouton directionnel pour diriger le ballon dans les airs. C'est la meilleure occasion de marquer un but que vous aurez pendant tout le match, alors ne la ratez pas! Lorsque plus d'un joueur par Èquipe est sous contrÙle humain, le joueur contre qui la faute a ÈtÈ commise donne le coup de pied de rÈparation. PUNITIONS Si l'arbitre considËre qu'une faute est particuliËrement grave, il pourra brandir le carton jaune. Le jeu s'arrÍte pendant que l'arbitre prend note du nom du joueur et un message appropriÈ apparaÓt. En gÈnÈral, les rÈcidivistes re oivent le carton rouge et sont expulsÈs. Ici aussi, le jeu s'arrÍte et l'Èquipe du joueur fautif doit se dÈbrouiller avec dix joueurs, puisqu'il est interdit de remplacer le co-Èquipier expulsÈ. POINTAGE La seule faÁon de gagner des points, c'est d'envoyer le ballon au fond des filets. En fait, il suffit que le ballon passe le plan de la ligne de but (imaginez un mur invisible entre la ligne de but, les montants et la barre) et l'arbitre dÈcidera que le but est valable. Toutefois, le ballon doit traverser la ligne en entier et il est inutile de se disputer avec l'arbitre, mÍme si vous pensez avoir marquÈ un but. Pour lancer, appuyez sur C. Gardez C enfoncÈ pour un surcroÓt de puissance. Vous pouvez utiliser le bouton directionnel pour diriger le ballon dans les airs. AprËs avoir marquÈ un but Lorsque le joueur qui a marquÈ le but et ses coÈquipiers ont fini de cÈlÈbrer le but, le ballon retourne dans le rond central pour Ítre remis au jeu. MITEMPS Un match de football se dÈroule en deux temps. ¿ la fin de la premiËre demie, vous serez peut-Ítre sur le chemin de la victoire, mais rien n'est encore garanti. Lorsque l'arbitre siffle pour indiquer la mi-temps, les deux Èquipes vont derriËre la ligne de touche et l'Ècran de configuration est affichÈ. L'option ´RESUME GAMEª (reprendre la partie) est activÈe, mais vous pouvez aussi apporter des changements ‡ votre Èquipe ou ‡ votre tactique. RÈflÈchissez sur vos faiblesses et les points forts des adversaires et faites vos changements en consÈquence. Si vous Ítes prÍt ‡ reprendre la partie, appuyez sur ´STARTª ou activez ´RESUME GAMEª et appuyez sur C. RALENTIS Vous voulez revoir le moment mÈmorable o˘ vous avez frappÈ une volÈe des 25 mËtres et o˘ le ballon a atterri au sommet du but? Ou vous voulez humilier votre adversaire en lui rappelant sa gaffe embarrassante? Et bien, c'est possible avec l'option ´INSTANT REPLAYª. Dans l'Ècran de configuration, activez ´INSTANT REPLAYª et appuyez sur C. L'Ècran ´INSTANT REPLAYª est affichÈ. Vous y voyez une image figÈe et une icÙne de contrÙleur en haut ‡ gauche. Les boutons du contrÙleur vous permettent de faire ce qui suit : Gardez A enfoncÈ pour revenir en arriËre. L‚chez A pour arrÍter le retour en arriËre. Appuyez sur B pour avancer le film image par image. Gardez B enfoncÈ pour avancer le film plus vite. Appuyez sur C pour visionner l'action ‡ la vitesse normale. Pour regarder encore une fois, appuyez sur A et le film se rembobine. Pour suivre un joueur Utilisez le bouton directionnel pour mettre un joueur en surbrillance et suivre chacun de ses mouvements pendant le ralenti. DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers le haut, le bas, la gauche ou la droite et une boÓte jaune apparaÓt ‡ l'Ècran. Placez cette boÓte au-dessus d'un joueur; un fil jaune montre que la camÈra le suit. Appuyez sur A, B et C comme auparavant pour visionner la performance du joueur que vous avez mis en vedette. REMPLACEMENTS DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers le bas pour afficher l'Ècran des substitutions. Utilisez le bouton directionnel pour faire dÈfiler la liste des joueurs vers le haut ou vers le bas. Activez le nom du joueur devant Ítre remplacÈ, et appuyez sur A; son nom apparaÓt dans la fenÍtre des substitutions prËs du drapeau de l'Èquipe. DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers le haut ou le bas pour activer le nom du remplaÁant que vous avez choisi. Vous pouvez comparer ses attributs ‡ ceux du joueur remplacÈ. Le nom du remplaÁant apparaÓt en dessous du nom de l'autre joueur dans la fenÍtre des substitutions. Appuyez sur A et le message OK confirme le remplacement. On ne peut utiliser que deux remplaÁants par match. Si vous changez d'idÈe, appuyez sur C pour choisir un autre joueur. Lorsque vous retournez sur le terrain, le joueur remplacÈ retourne au vestiaire dËs que l'arbitre siffle pour arrÍter le jeu. POINTAGE DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers le bas pour afficher le pointage et appuyez sur C. Cet Ècran vous montre les joueurs et les Èquipes qui ont marquÈ des buts, ainsi que le moment o˘ le ballon est entrÈ dans le filet. LISTE DES FAUTES DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers le bas pour afficher la liste des fautes et appuyez sur C. Cet Ècran vous montre le nom des petits vilains auxquels on a montrÈ le carton jaune ou rouge, ainsi que leur Èquipe et le moment de la faute. FIN DU MATCH Un coup de sifflet marque la fin du match. Les gagnants peuvent jouir des applaudissements de la foule et cÈlÈbrer sur la ligne de touche. Si vous avez ÈtÈ battu ‡ plate couture et n'avez pas envie de voir les adversaires fÍter leur victoire, appuyez sur ´STARTª et passez ‡ l'Ècran ´END OF GAMEª. Mot de passe Si vous avez besoin de souffler un peu, il vous faut un mot de passe. DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers le bas jusqu'‡ ´VIEW PASSWORD et appuyez sur C. Vous entrez alors dans l'Ècran du mot de passe. Prenez note des lettres et chiffres formant le mot de passe et gardez-le en lieu s˚r.

Final Zone Renovation To return to Now Playing, reset your adapter. GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME WEAPONS BROWSE HELP FILES Final Zone Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text You are about to be transported into the future, where wars are no longer fought by missiles and nuclear bombs. With all weapons of mass destruction banned, the latest wave in warfare is the New Age Power-Suit, or NAP-a robotic combat machine which gives the wearer unheard-of fighting ability. Here, you will play the part of Howie Bowie, the finest soldier of the El Shiria Military Nation's foreign legion, leader of the unit called "Undead". You receive your orders via an urgent radio transmission: "Team Undead, occupy and destroy Point A-46K Bloody Axis. Use K-19 Phantom NAP for this operation." Some would call this an impossible mission. But your NAP can be equipped with up to 14 different weapons, out of 20 available--including flame throwers, land mines, and both hand-held and body-mounted firing equipment. With this kind of firepower to command, your only limitation will be your own strategic sense and combat savvy. The ultimate battlefield-the FINAL ZONE-awaits you! Final Zone Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text Start: * Press to start game. * During play, press to pause/unpause game. D-Pad: * Press to move NAP in eight directions. * Pressing D-Pad twice in the same direction moves NAP faster. * Pressing the button once in the reverse direction applies the brake. A Button: * Press to shoot hand-held weapon. B Button: * Press to shoot optional weapon. C Button: * Press to go to weapons select mode. Punch: * Enemies are punched automatically when NAP gets close to them. Final Zone Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text How to Move NAP: Normal move: Press D Button to move NAP and to change the direction it is facing. Move and use hand-held weapon at the same time: Press D Button and A Button (or whichever button you assigned in configuration mode). The NAP will move without changing direction of the body. Super-speed mode: Press D Button twice quickly in the same direction to move the NAP at super-speed. Press the D Button in the opposite direction once to resume normal movement. Screen Indicators: * The number of enemy officers left in the stage is shown in the upper left corner of the screen. * Your current score is shown in the upper right corner of the screen. * To the right of the enemy officers indicator is the number of weapons equipped with NAP now, or how durable the NAP is. * Just to the left of your score is the number of bullets left for optional weapon being used. A square means 10 bullets and a bar means 1 bullet. Game Start: In this game you must clear 14 stages in 7 areas of battle scenes. Each area consists of a Battle Stage and a Boss Stage (except area 7). In the Battle Stage, "Officers" and "Soldiers" of enemies will fight NAP. The number of "Officers" of enemies is displayed at ENEMIES portion in the upper screen. To clear each stage: In Battle Stage--Destroy all "Officers" of enemies. In Boss Stage--Destroy all enemies. Weapon Damaging System: NAP is able to equip with up to 14 different types of weapons. Number of weapons equipped also means how durable the NAP is. For example, the NAP with 10 weapons can get through 10 enemies' attacks before it is destroyed (Game Over). Game Over: Each time NAP is attacked by enemies, it will lose the weapons equipped, one by one per attack. When NAP loses all the weapons, it will be out of control and will explode (Game Over). Continue Game: Game Over will lead to the title screen, which will display the number of credits and time toward accepting replay. Replaying the game from the stage where Game Over happened is possible. The number of credits toward replay differs in each game mode. Easy Mode allows replay for five times, Normal Mode for three times, and Hard Mode for one time. Final Zone Weapons Use Up/Down to scroll text Weapons Select Mode: If you press C Button during game play, Weapons Select Mode will appear. Functions of each Button at Select Mode: D-Button: Selects weapons. A Button: Assign selected weapon as Hand-held Weapon. B Button: Assign selected weapon as Optional Weapon. C Button: Change priority of weapons. To exit from Weapons Select Mode, move cursor to "EXIT" and press either A, B, or C Button. Weapon Characteristics: NAP is able to equip with up to 14 weapons. To obtain weapons, destroy enemies' transports carrying weapons. Each weapon will have different characteristics, depending on the part of the body to which the weapon will be loaded. When the weapon is loaded on the right hand, it will work as a "Hand-held Weapon." If the same weapon is loaded on the back, it will work as an "Optional Weapon." If it is located on another part of the body, it will work as a "Shield." Hand-held Weapon: Number of bullets is limitless; however, it is not powerful. Optional Weapon: Number of bullets is limited but powerful. Shield: This does not discharge bullets. It works as a shield against attacks, giving NAP durability. There is a priority order of each weapon depending upon where it is loaded on. When NAP is shot, it will lose the weapon which has the lowest priority. Once "Optional Weapon" uses up all bullets, it will be moved to the lowest priority part of the body automatically. Other weapons will go up to a higher priority position accordingly. Priority of each body part to load weapons: 1) Right hand 2) Back 3) Left hand 4) Body 5) Shoulder joint 6) Right waist 7) Head 8) Right Shoulder 9) Left Shoulder 10) Right leg 11) Left leg 12) Right arm 13) Left arm 14) Left waist Smaller number means higher priority. Selecting Hand-held Weapon: Move cursor by D Button to the weapon you want to load on the right hand (Hand-held weapon, highest priority) and press A Button. The weapon selected here will be loaded on the right hand and other weapons will move to lower priority positions accordingly. Selecting Optional Weapon: Move cursor by D Button to the weapon you want to use as Optional Weapon and press B Button. The weapon selected here will be loaded on the back (second priority) and other weapons except the Hand-held Weapon will move to lower priority positions accordingly. Selecting a weapon for third priority: Move cursor by D Button to the weapon you want to load on at third priority and press C Button. Other weapons lower than third priority will go down to lower priority accordingly. Hints for effective use of weapons: * Weapons have different characteristics depending on which position they are loaded (Hand-held Weapon or Optional Weapon). * Think about priority--NAP will lose a weapon loaded at the lowest priority position when it is attacked. If you want to use a strong weapon later, it is suggested that you raise the priority of the weapon. * Think about the number of bullets left--When the weapon is used as Optional Weapon, it is powerful, but the number of bullets is limited. Once it uses up all bullets, the weapon will be moved to the lowest priority position automatically. Functions of Weapons: Obtainable weapons are categorized in six systems: Normal, Laser, Napalm, Wire, Mine, and Missile. NOTE: Within each system, the name of the weapon will be listed first, followed by it's Hand-held function, and finally the Optional function. Normal System: * Normal; rapid firing; fires dual guns in parallel. * Shot G (gun); semicircular-style three-directional gun; fires guns rocking side to side. * Wave; fires twin bullets; fires three bullets in parallel. * Vulcan; rapid firing; fires bi-directional bullets on a slant. * Twin; fires two bullets in parallel; fires three bullets in parallel. * Grenade; rapid firing; eight-directional.

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME WEAPONS STAGES BROWSE HELP FILES Gaiares Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text THE STORY Mother Earth has been turned into an environmental wasteland by careless humans. Now, the human race has one last chance to save the Earth...with your help. The United Star Cluster of Leezaluth, the governing empire of the Galaxy, has sent a warning to the Earth: "To any surviving Humans-An inter-galactic terrorist group known as Gulfer is planning to invade your planet and use your polluted waster to build weapons. You Humans must stop Gulfer. If you cannot, we will be forced to super-nova your sun and destroy the Earth to stop them. But if you can stop Gulfer, we will give you a new planet like Earth to live on." Unfortunately, Earth can no longer afford to maintain a standing army or military. But there is still one brave hero willing to fight for the survival of Earth. He is Dan Dare, a young ace-pilot who is ready to face Gulfer-and possible death-by himself. Alexis, the messenger from Leezaluth, was awed by Dan's fighting spirit and decided to stay with him. She deliberately brainwashed herself of her own culture so that she could stay on Earth and fight alongside Dan. She modified Dan's spacecraft and is now the navigator of the TOZ weapon system on Dan's ship. The last epic struggle for the survival of the Human Race and Mother Earth has just begun...All our fates rest in your hands. Gaiares Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text TAKING CONTROL D-Pad: * Move ship. Press to move ship in any direction. A Button: * Speed change. Press to change the speed of the ship in three levels: Low, Mid(medium), or Max(maximum). B Button: * Attack. Press to shoot. Pressing continuously shoots rapid-fire shots. Even if you are using the Genesis Arcade Power Stick, the number of shots will not increase more than the standard rapid-fire. C Button: * Operate TOZ. Press to detach TOZ. Start Button: * To pause/resume play. HOW TO PLAY In this game, the ship will power up by learning attacking characteristics of enemies as you play. You must carefully watch the TOZ indicator in the upper left corner of the screen during operation of TOZ. Don't worry, you won't be too nervous about the indicator once you get used to it. You can change the speed of the ship any time you want. The faster your speed is, the more likely you are to crash on the land or obstacles. Adjust the speed as you learn how to maneuver the ship. When you lose a ship, you will be sent back to a certain position of the stage in which you lost the ship. Gaiares Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text CAST OF CHARACTERS There are four main characters that appear on the screen, who are part of this epic space struggle. Dan Twenty-one years old, he is an honest and true hero of Earth who has a strong sense of justice. He is the main hero of the game. He is also a first-rate pilot. Alexis She was sent to the Earth as a messenger, and she was awed by Dan's strong will to fight. She deliberately brainwashed herself of her own culture(which, of course, is forbidden in Leezaluth) so she could live among the humans and become the navigator of the TOZ for Dan. She is a bright and thoughtful 20-year-old girl from the Leezaluth star cluster. Natasha She is the Queen of the United Star Clusters, Leezaluth. The sister of Alexis, Natasha is 25 years old. She worries about Alexis, who she sent to Earth as a messenger. Queen ZZ Badnasty The corrupt leader of the terrorist force, Gulfer. A cold-blooded Queen who is trying to utilize polluted materials on Earth for military weapons. Half her body is a robot. She has a habit of laughing hysterically at absolutely nothing. She is also an egomaniac. ABOUT THE TOZ Power up your ship! A learning unit, the TOZ, is an artificial-intelligence system that can adapt the attacking pattern of the enemy and transfer the same weapon the enemy has to the player's ship by docking to the enemy. When TOZ is docked to the enemy, the system analyzes and adapts the enemy's attacking pattern, and the information will be transferred to the ship. By doing so, the ship will be able to change weapons, power-up, and attack with multiple weapons. Now your ship has the same capability as the enemy. The TOZ is standard equipment on the ship and you will not lose the system even when attacked. The level of weapon system acquired by TOZ will be kept even after a change of weapons is made. When the TOZ adapts the same kind of weapon later, the original weapon level will be resumed. How to use the TOZ The TOZ is detached by pressing Button C. Just press once. The weapon power level will be upgraded by learning the same weapon several times. The level of each weapon will be recorded and the same level will be resumed when TOZ re-equips with the same kind of weapon. NOTE: Once the ship learns a special weapon, the TOZ will not dock with enemies that have the basic weapon. And, after learning a special weapon, the ship cannot use the basic weapon until you lose a ship. Search Pressing the C Button sets the TOZ in front of the ship immediately and detaches it horizontally. Then it docks with the enemy, id there is one on the same horizontal line. Capture If the detached TOZ judges that it is worth learning a weapon, it will dock with the enemy. Completed The TOZ returns to the ship after a short period of time. Only then is it possible for TOZ and the ship to attack enemies with a new weapon acquired. Error The TOZ will return to the ship if it cannot find an enemy on the straight line on which the TOZ sought along. Be careful not to detach TOZ without good reason, because the ship cannot shoot while TOZ is searching for an enemy. TOZ Level Any basic or special weapon can be upgraded to a max or level three. The status of the level is seen in the upper left corner of the screen. The color changes from blue to red in the three levels. The TOZ is Invincible Wield a variety of attacks using TOZ's invincibility! TOZ is absolutely invincible. It even protects you from bullets of enemies in low levels. Move the ship, assuming that the TOZ traces on the extended line of the course on which the ship moved. Gaiares Weapons Use Up/Down to scroll text BASIC WEAPONS The basic weapon is standard equipment that is loaded at the time of starting. The weapon can be powered up by using the TOZ system. However, it goes back to the lowest level when you are shot by an enemy. Ionic Vulcan Bullets equipped as standard. They are automatic, but not powerful. You can fire three bullets at the same time by powering up. Quark Missile Missiles equipped as standard. Automatic firing and bi-directional firing is possible by powering up. It can also fire homing missiles after learning the same type of missiles from an enemy. SPECIAL WEAPONS Many kinds of powerful attacks are available through TOZ! Special weapons are ones obtained by learning from enemies using TOZ. The ship will gain more offensive power by learning the weapon of the same enemy repeatedly. Power up levels could be different depending on the type of weapon. Horizontal Laser A laser shot fired horizontally which goes linearly. Powered-up laser discharges more output and thus becomes more powerful. This is a weapon with high attacking capability and easy to aim. Vertical Laser This laser forms a vertical wall and then goes straight. Shooting distance will be longer with power-ups. Rolling Colador Multi-directional shots. Power-up makes it possible to shoot three, four, and five directional shots in each level. This is helpful when enemies appear frequently. Energy Smash Fires rotating bullet around the ship. The bullet charges energy while pressing B Button and fires when released. Number of bullets increases with power-ups. Plasma Cannon A laser shot gun which fires multi-directionally at the same time. It fires laser shots counter-clockwise and power-up makes it possible to fire two, four and eight directional lasers in each level. Giga-Beam An ultra-thick laser beam that launches forward. While a beam in basic level is powerful enough, it becomes even thicker and stronger with power-ups. Somersault Laser A homing laser. With power-up, it obtains automated firing capability and fires more bullets. Tektite Missile Multi-directional missiles. They fly up to a certain distance and then explode. With power-up, the number of directions shot will increase. Break Defender The ship will have a barrier around it and will be invincible. It will lose its durability when attacked by an enemy. Dimension Quake This instantly eliminates all of the enemies on the screen. Random Unit The ship will learn a weapon at random. Gaiares Stages Use Up/Down to scroll text GAME STAGES Floating Continent After launching from the Space Attacker station and passing the Asteroids, try to destroy the boss character waiting at the inside of the huge cave of the floating continent, and you will clear the stage. The ship makes a sortie at super high speed. Once the ship is launched from the catapult, it will travel into the complete darkness of space. A turning point in the stage. Enemies' fighting power is different in the upper and lower sections.)A turning point is seen in each stage). The first boss character is GALUDIA. It fires three-directional bullets and discharges powerful energy beams when putting its arms together. It sometimes dashes into the ship. Do not let down the first boss character-it's really strong. Glacial Planet The ship enters into the atmosphere of the planet and passes through the tunnel of an iceberg. Escape from the inside of the big iceberg and into the ocean and destroy the boss hiding in the water, to clear the stage. Laser batteries on the ground fire lasers at you at fixed angles. Find them and destroy the batteries! Obstacles like the net surrounding an area must be blown away to go through. Just before the Boss character shows up, the ship will sink into the water. The name of the Boss is Demarina. She's covered with hard shells, but she shows her true character as you damage her. She will fire shock waves from a crystal ball in her hands. The battle will take her a relatively long time; BE PATIENT. Space Sanctuary In this stage, you fight while sailing at high speed into Nether Space. Get around the blackholes and destroy the Boss in the sanctuary. You pass through Nether Space by high speed navigation. Don't let the dazzling scenery make you dizzy-Push yourself! The intense gravity from the blackhole pulls the ship, and it's very hard to have full control in this area. There are many hidden traps in the Sanctuary. Look and proceed very carefully. The Boss, Death Ghetto, appears and disappears in front of you and behind you, and it throws big rotating blades. The ship can damage the Boss only when it is fully seen. The weak point is its face. Don't be overpowered by its huge body, and aim at the weak point as accurately as you can. Space Colony In this stage, you pass through a graveyard of space ships and robots. The ship must get into the inside of the Space Colony. The stage can be cleared by destroying the core of the boss, BioMonster. This area is the graveyard of space and has many obstacles. Obtain a powerful weapon and be prepared. The elevator is installed at the entrance of the Space Colony. Many random enemies are floating around in here. Inside the unattended colony, there appears a dragon called Rob. Its moves are tricky and it is hard to destroy. This is a Boss area where the ship will be forced into a narrow space. The Boss, Guzalik, attacks you while spinning itself at high speed like a top. It momentarily stops spinning when shot by you, but then it shoots a ring of fire at you.

Galaxy Force 2 Sega To return to Now Playing, reset your adapter. GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Galaxy Force 2 Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text Located at the end of the Milky Way Galaxy, the solar system called Junos-known by its inhabitants as the jewel of the galaxy-consisted of five planets. Those who called Junos home lived in glorious peace and prosperity. They had no idea what was about to happen to them... The Fourth Empire, on the verge of completing its conquest of the Milky Way, knew all about Junos and the five planets. They, in fact, were the final targets in the galactic massacre staged by Halcyon, ruler of the Fourth Empire. The ruthless tyrant sent the bulk of his attacking force into the small system with one purpose-the elimination of all life forms on the five planets of Junos, and the construction of gigantic fortresses from which Halycon would rule the galaxy! The attack was indeed devastating! Junos, being a peaceful region, had no real defense system, and was a sitting duck! Halcyon erected a fortress on each of the five planets. The galaxy's recognized governing body, the Space Federation, began recruiting attack pilots in an effort to reclaim Junos. Strap yourself into your TRX-5 Quasar and turn the tables on Halycon! Galaxy Force 2 Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text In Selection Screens: Start Button: * Press to start the game. D-Button: * Press to move the selection marker or to highlight choices in the Options screen. * Press left or right to choose a level in the Scene Select screen. Buttons A, B and C: * Press to enter selections made using the D-Button. During Play: Start Button: * Press to pause the action; press again to resume play. D-Button: * Press in any direction to control the TRX-5. * Under normal conditions, press up to descend/dive and press down to climb. Buttons A, B and C: * The functions of these buttons can be selected in the Options screen. Since there are four functions and three buttons, one of the functions will be handled automatically by the computer. Galaxy Force 2 Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text There are several screen signals that give you certain information. In the upper left corner is the number of the mission you're currently playing. In the upper right corner is your current score. You accumulate points by destroying enemy craft, and there are bonus points available as well. In the lower left corner is where the damage to your protector shield is indicated. It changes color to represent the severity of the damage. * Blue: Light damage. * Yellow: Moderate damage. * Red: Severe damage. The bottom middle of the screen displays your remaining energy. This counter acts as a timer-when your energy is gone, the game ends. Normally the energy ticks away like seconds from a time clock, but you can lose big quantities of energy if you sustain serious damage in an attack. This will happen most often when your protector shield has been destroyed. The energy bonus is located on the lower right corner of the screen. This number increases as you wipe out enemy craft. It will be added to your energy supply after you've cleared the level. The number of Power-Up missiles remaining is just above the remaining energy display. The TRX-5 Quasar: You're not alone in the fight against the Fourth Empire, but you have been given the toughest and most dangerous assignment. The Space Federation has scrambled an estimated 2,000 commanders in defense of Junos. Before you enter the battle, learn a bit about your ship. Weaponry: The TRX-5 is equipped with a medium-intensity laser shot that can be fired repeatedly. Unfortunately, the Fourth Empire's technology is more advanced than that of the Federation, so one shot may not be enough to take out an enemy ship. Fire relentlessly and stay on the move to avoid damage to your shield. Your ship can also fire missiles at enemy craft. Use your sight to lock on to as many targets as possible, and press Button B to let the missiles fly. Under normal conditions you can fire as many as four missiles at a time. Your supply of laser shots and regular missiles is unlimited. Power Up: The TRX Lifesaver craft appears occasionally to deliver a supply of super-powerful missiles. You get 60 missiles each time the Lifesaver appears, and you can fire as many as six at a time! Again, don't fire unless you are locked on to a few targets. When the supply runs out, you have to do the best you can with normal missiles. Protector Shield: You begin with a fully-operational shield, which deteriorates as you take hits from enemy craft. The shield indicator in the lower left corner of the screen changes color (Blue, Yellow and finally Red) as the effectiveness of your shield wears off. Your flying ability will be put to the test when you lose your shield, as each hit from enemy ships does severe damage and takes big chunks out of your energy supply. Speed Control: You'll experience sudden, drastic changes in terrain in each level. There are obstacles, both fixed and moving, and tunnels with radical bends and curls. Running into the side, top or bottom of a tunnel or hitting an obstacle costs you big in terms of energy. Use the Speed Down button to gain better control of your ship in those tight areas. Navigational Aid: As you enter a tunnel, a computerized voice informs you of upcoming turns. Have the sound turned up so you don't miss the indication. It just might save you some energy units. Fortresses: If you can fight and maneuver your way through the first wave of Fourth Empire attack craft, you can penetrate the fortress and destroy its control center. Doing so reclaims the planet in the name of the Space Federation and brings you one step closer to driving the Fourth Empire out of existence! Scoring: You accumulate points by destroying enemies. There are also bonus points and extra energy units available for reclaiming a planet (clearing a level). While it's natural to try for the highest score possible, don't forget your primary mission is to annihilate the control center in the fortress on each planet. That's the way to shut down Halcyon and his Empire! Galaxy Force 2 Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Galactic Guidance: * Get as many enemy targets locked as possible before firing missiles, especially in a Power-Up situation. Your supply is limited! * Become a skilled pilot and stay away from ceilings, floors, walls, and stationary obstacles. Also do your best to avoid enemy fire and ships. Each hit wears down your shield. If you're hit after your shield has been broken, you lose huge amounts of energy! * Use your Speed Down control to carefully maneuver your ship through tight spots, but remember that the rate of energy consumption doesn't slow down accordingly. Should you go all out and take risks, or is it best to play it conservatively and save energy? The decision is yours!

SEGA CHANNEL GAME GUIDE Troubleshooting Guide Use Up/Down to scroll text Q. I was playing a killer game and it just quit while I was playing, what's going on? A. Were you playing a game from the "Test Drives" menu? "Test Drives" games are limited versions of the retail games. The limitation is often by time allowed. Please read the news as you download a game to see any limits that are set. When these games come back on Sega Channel in a few months they will not have any time limits. Q. I saved a game and when I played later, I couldn't re-load my saved game. Why not? A. The Sega Channel does have save ability, but only for one game. If you save a game, you cannot play a different game before restoring your saved one. Alternatively, there are a couple games which require more save memory than the Sega Channel provides. These games cannot be saved on your Sega Channel Converter. Please read the news as you download a game to see any limitations. Q. I tried to load a really radical game, and my system said I wasn't authorized. What gives? A. Sega Channel includes a Password for Parents system, which allows parents to select certain game ratings that they feel to be most appropriate for their children. If you are not authorized for a game, it is because games of that rating are restricted by the password. Q. How do I play my Sega CD once I have the Sega Channel? A. To play a Sega game on Sega CD, you will first need to remove the Sega Channel Adapter from the Sega Genesis Console. Q. I Was playing the Channel through my 32X. When a game finishes loading, all I get on my T.V. is a black screen. What should I do? A. When you get a black screen after loading, try pressing reset on your Genesis. If problems persist, disconnect your 32X and connect your Sega Channel adapter directly to the Genesis. Q. I was in the middle of a game and I really needed help. How do I access the game help from within a game? A. You cannot access the on-line help while playing a game, so be sure to check out the Game Information Screen before selecting a game to play. If you do, you'll get all the information and instructions you need to enjoy the game. Since you cannot access this screen during a game, write down any important information before starting the game. If you find you still need help, reset the Adapter, read the instructions and load the game again. For additional game hint information, you can call the game assistance telephone numbers listed on the Game Guide and Game Information Screens.

J'avais sauvegardÈ un jeu et quand j'ai voulu jouer plus tard, je n'ai pas pu recharger mon jeu sauvegardÈ. Pourquoi? R. Sega Channel possËde une capacitÈ de sauvegarde, mais pour un jeu seulement. Si vous sauvegardez un jeu, vous ne pouvez pas passer un jeu diffÈrent avant de restaurer celui que vous aviez sauvegardÈ.

Si vous ne recevez pas d'autorisation pour un jeu donnÈ, c'est parce que cette catÈgorie de jeu est restreinte en raison du mot de passe. Q. Comment dois-je faire pour passer mon CD Sega une fois que j'ai la Sega Channel? R. Pour passer un jeu Sega sur Sega CD, il faut d'abord retirer l'adapteur Sega Channel de la Console Sega Genesis. Q.

GARGOYLE.O

Gargoyles Buena Vista Interactive To return to Now Playing, reset your adapter. GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Gargoyles Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text Goliath is the powerful leader of the ancient race of creatures known as gargoyles. One day, Goliath awoke to find himself in a new world, and, for the first time in a millennium, a gargoyle rules the night. Goliath becomes aware of a familiar evil presence in this bizarre land, an evil he has fought before. Somehow, the Eye of Odin survived the centuries with Goliath and leads a new type of army on a path of destruction. Goliath must chase the Eye of Odin across the rooftops of the sprawling metropolis, battling the mechanized terrors that have been programmed to destroy him. The Eye of Odin must be destroyed and only Goliath possesses the knowledge and the power to succeed-and survive. Gargoyles Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text D-Pad: This moves Goliath Left and Right. Press Up to make him look up. Press Up while he's clinging to a wall to make him climb up the wall. Press Up while Goliath is crawling across a ceiling to use his wings as defensive shields. Press Down to make him crouch or duck down. Press Down while he's clinging to a wall to make him slide down the wall. Button A: Press once to throw an enemy (who is within Goliath's reach). Hold Button A to slam an enemy into the ground. Button B: Press once to make Goliath swipe his claws in an uppercut. Tap Button B twice to make Goliath perform an uppercut followed by a low slash in a combo move. Tap Button B three times and Goliath uppercuts, does a low slash, then follows through with a smashing overhead blow. Button C: Press once to make Goliath jump. Tap Button C twice to make Goliath jump and flap his wings. Press Button C once after Goliath is struck (during an attack or after he collides with a solid object), and he performs a flap to give himself extra lift. Start: Press this button to pause the action of the game. Press it again to resume game play. Special Moves: * Shoulder Roll: This move can be used by Goliath to attack his enemies and break through doors and weak walls. Run either Left or Right and tap Button B to perform this move. * Hawk Dive: Use this move to have Goliath break through skylights and weak floors and to dive down on enemies in fierce attacks! Press Button C to make Goliath jump (or leap from a platform), then, while he is in the air, press Button A to perform the Hawk Dive. * Kick Maneuver: Press Down (Left or Right) on the D-Pad then Button B to crouch-kick your enemies. Gargoyles Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text The Game Screens A meter appears at the lower left side of the screen that indicates Goliath's current health. As enemy attacks take their toll, the bar within turns from green to yellow. When it begins to flash red, Goliath must beware-or soon perish. When Goliath has collected a magic shield, this bar flashes white. While it does, Goliath is invulnerable to any type of damage. Next to the health meter is the number of lives Goliath has left. If Goliath is defeated when this number reaches zero, the battle is lost. However, if he has collected an enchanted Gargoyle Totem, he will be given the opportunity to continue. Bonus Items Danger and destruction aren't the only things that lie in the wake of the Eye of Odin. As he pursues his enemies, Goliath will find many items to help him in his battles. In some cases, these powerful artifacts will have been left behind by others fleeing the incoming tide of evil. They are also found in the possession of enemies, human or robot. When Goliath defeats the enemy, he will be able to make use of the item the enemy may be carrying. The more enemies Goliath defeats, the more artifacts he may find. The more dangerous foes often carry the most powerful artifacts. They are: * Shield: Makes Goliath temporarily invulnerable. * Hammer: Gives Goliath a One-Hit Kill temporarily. * Chalice: Partial restoration of Health Meter. * Goblet: Fully restores his Health Meter. * Gargoyle Totem: Grants one extra Life. * Enchanted Gargoyle Totem: Grants one extra Continue. Gargoyles Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Goliath is a creature of living stone. He's heavier and stronger than humans-use this to your advantage as you crash through barriers like weak floors and skylights. * Goliath can use catapults to gain higher ground. * Goliath cannot truly fly upwards, but he can ride strong air currents to reach higher levels. These currents can be found in the modern world as well! * Goliath can attack while he's airborne. Just because he's in the middle of a jump doesn't mean he's completely defenseless. * Have Goliath look for hidden chambers and secret rooms throughout the many levels to find even more bonus items. * Don't underestimate a well-timed duck. Having Goliath dodge attacks is not cowardly, it's a form of self preservation! * Have Goliath use his wings to defend himself while he's climbing across the ceilings! * Wait for the Raptors to jump first-THEN take a swing at them.

GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES General Chaos Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text What about Starpuppy? How about Biceps? Some childrens' entire lives are shaped by the names their parents give them. A child named Chaos another named Havoc aren't likely to grow up to be tree huggers or flower sellers. Those are warrior names! Chaos and Havoc were inseparable playmates during childhood. Their war games were the pride to their parents, a source of envy to their schoolmates, and caused increased earplug sales in their neighborhood. They built up such a huge library of the literature of combat that their knowledge of strategy and tactics was soon encyclopedic. Their games expanded over the years, and so did their library. One day, Chaos came upon a written treasure more valuable than Napoleon's journals, Charlemagne's diary, or Frederick the Great's credit card carbons. Chaos discovered a mint edition copy of the #1 edition of HUGE MUSCULAR DESTRUCTIVE HEAVILY ARMED FREQUENTLY EXPLODING COMBAT WARRIORS IN BATTLE comic book. He made the mistake of showing it to Havoc, bringing out Havoc's natural streak of greed and treachery. Havoc declared martial law and tried to confiscate the comic book. Chaos refused. In a tug of war, the aged pulp pages flew apart. Chaos blamed Havoc. Havoc blamed Chaos. A feud began that has never ended. Both continued their military studies and went on to control huge armies and vast tracts of land. War has raged between General Chaos of Moronica and General Havoc of Viceria for decades. Vast armies were drawn back and forth across the landscape like bedclothes. There was no snooze alarm to postpone the carnage. Both generals thought at length on how to break the stalemate. Finally...at the same moment, both Chaos and Havoc arrived at the same solution. Small mobile squads of Scorchers, Gunners, Launchers, Chuckers, and Blasters in place of huge, slow armies. Scorchers are fire bugs who think the whole world's a barbecue. Grenade Chuckers take time to appreciate the heavens. Launchers muse over life's meaning. Gunners lay down a curtain of lead in combat, but they're the most fun-loving soldiers in the army. A blaster is something of an outcast among his fellow soldiers. The Soldiers of Chaos assemble in five man squads. Each has been trained to a hard, gleaming edge. So it has come to this. The end is surely near.

Electronic Arts has solved your problem with the all new 4-Way Play four-player controller. Simply plug the 4-Way Play into your Genesis, then plug up to four controllers into the adapter, and you're ready to go. Note: Six-button controller users who are using the 4-Way Play must play in three-button mode. To configure your controller to three-button mode: 1. Turn off the Genesis. 2. Hold the Mode button on every six-button controller that will be used while you turn the Genesis on. Your six-button controller is now configured in three-button mode. You may just want to leave a 4-Way Play plugged into your Sega Genesis even if you aren't playing a 3 Player or 4 Player game. If you have a 4-Way Play plugged into your Sega Genesis and you want to play a 1 Player game, make sure your controller is plugged into control port 1. If you want to play a 2 Player game with the 4-Way Play plugged in, make sure controller 1 is plugged into control port 1 and controller 2 is plugged into control port 2. General Chaos Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text BATTLEFIELD & SQUAD SELECTION Battlefields The attacking Army chooses the next battle site, known as the Battlefield. Usually, the army that won the last battle is the Attacking Army. There are exceptions: *In the first battle of the first game, the Blue Army is always the Attacking Army. *In a 3 or 4 Player game, Player 1 will choose for Chaos when they are the Attacking Army, and Player 3 will choose for Havoc when they are the Attacking Army. *In the first battle of a Continued game, the army that lost the last campaign is the Attacking Army. To select a Battlefield: 1. Press the D-Pad up/down to move the Bullseye Icon up and down on the map. A Battlefield's name will appear at the top of the map when the Bullseye Icon is on it. In the first battle, you can choose from a set of three different Battle Regions. And in most subsequent battles, you also usually have a set three battle regions to choose from. However, in a campaign's later battles, after the control of several Battle Regions has been determined, you may have only one or two Battlefields to choose from. If only one Battle Region is available, you will automatically attack it. 2. To select a region, place the Bullseye Icon over it and press any button. A dart will hit the target Battlefield and you'll be on your way. As your front line pushes forward, the Battlefields that you may select from get closer and closer to the enemy capital. You can attack your enemy's capital after you've captured a territory that borders on it. If you lose the battle for the enemy's capital, you must defeat the enemy's subsequent advance toward your own capital before you can attack his capital again. There are 17 Battlefields in each campaign map. In a game Continued through all three campaigns, there are a total of 51 possible Battlefields. Squads To select a squad: 1. use the D-Pad to look at portraits of the available squads: D-Pad Up-Displays the Assault Team D-Pad Down-Displays the Commandos D-Pad Left-Displays the Demolition Squad D-Pad Right-Displays the Brute Force Squad Note: When you're playing a 2 Player Side By Side or 4 Player Game, you can choose only Commandos. When you're playing a 3 Player Game, the side with 2 players can only choose Commandos. 2. Icons beneath each Squad portrait tell what weapons the Squad carries. Check the icons to make sure you're getting the weapons combination you want. 3. Look to see if the Attacking Army has a Special Objective in the upcoming battle; it could help you decide which Squad to select. For example, if your Special Objective is to destroy a building, you might want to select a Squad that includes one or more grenade-throwing Chuckers or dynamite-tossing Blasters. Special Objective assignments appear above the Squad portraits.(See the Special Objective section in this manual for more information.) 4. When the Squad you want is on screen, Press A, B, or C to select it. Clandestine Squad Selection When selecting squads in a multi player game, the player who chooses his squad first can then secretly select a different squad, so his opponent won't know what he selected. This is called Clandestine Squad Selection. To commit Clandestine Squad Selection: 1. Before your opponent makes his squad selection, press the D-Pad in the direction of the squad you want. For instance, if you originally selected an Assault Team, you can select the Commando Team by pressing the D-Pad down before your opponent selects his squad. 2. If Clandestine Squad Selection has been accomplished, the text on the closed dossier drawer will change from Squad selection completed to Clandestine squad selection completed. Soldiers There are five types of Soldier. Each type of Soldier has a unique appearance to make them easily recognizable on the battlefield. Gunner-Gunners are standard issue GI jarhead grunts. They aren't lifetime soldiers like Launchers, but War is still the most fun they'll ever have. Gunners lay down a constant spray of bullets with their machine guns. Their weapons can jam, though, and they need time to clear them when they do. Their line of fire can also be blocked by some obstacles. Range: 40 meters Chucker-Combat is probably the best place for Chuckers. Chuckers have a reputation for being a little off the wall...and they'd like to know just where this wall is so they could go blow it up. If Chuckers could jump on live grenades, they would-not to save their comrades' lives but as a show of affection. Chuckers throw grenades for good distance and can arc them over obstacles. Range: 50 meters Scorcher-There's something about Scorchers' grins and tendency to mutter "Mmm, barbecue!" in the heat of battle(no pun intended) that make people think Scorchers enjoy their work just way too much. They unfurl a short but deadly curtain of flame that can ignite more than one foe. But he may have trouble firing up immediately after crossing a body of water. Range: 5 meters Launcher-Launchers are old-fashioned hard-bitten by-the-book army lifers. Military service is the only life they know, and all they care about. Their long years of service have earned them the privilege of using that most formidable of weapons, the bazooka. These roughnecks' bazookas have very long range, but they take awhile to reload. As with Gunners, some obstacles can block Launchers' fire. Range: 150 meters Blaster-Blasters are nervous. You might ask why guys like that would get into demolitions; the answer is they weren't guys like that when they started. They inevitably have a few mishaps during training(those eyepatches are there for a reason), which leave them jangled for life. The fact they throw bombs a relatively short distance away doesn't hem-up their frayed nerves, either. Blasters blow things up by throwing dynamite; they're good guys to send in when you need to blast an objective. Their range is short, but the explosions have an area of effect that can take out more than one enemy. Range: 10 meters Info line Info lines for both armies appear at the top of the screen during combat. The Blue army's Info Line is on the left side of the screen, and the Red army's Info Line is on the right side of the screen. The currently selected Soldier appears on the left side of the Info Line, followed by a line of icons. Each Soldier is represented by an icon of the weapon he uses. The currently selected soldier's icon is highlighted in white. When a Soldier is down and needs a Medic, his weapon icon on the Info Line is replaced by a cross. When a Soldier dies, his weapon icon onto Info Line is replaced by a skull. FIRE AND MOVEMENT Firing Weapons Button A fires all soldiers weapons as long as the button is held down. Each Soldier automatically attempts to fire at the closest enemy Soldier, but it is up to you to move them within range of targets on into strategic positions. Selecting Soldiers For Players 1 and 3, their currently selected Soldier is marked by a circle beneath him; for players 2 and 4, their currently selected Soldier stands on a star. The circle or star will flash the color of the appropriate Army and then turn black. To select another Soldier, press C until the circle is beneath the Soldier you want. Movement Cursor The Movement Cursor tells the selected Soldier where to go. The Blue Side's Cursor is stamped with a C(for Chaos, naturally), while the Red Side's Cursor is emblazoned with an H(the initial of Havoc). 1. To move the Movement Cursor around the battlefield, use the D-Pad. 2. Press the D-Pad Up to move the Cursor up, press it down to move the Cursor down, left to move it left, and right to move it right. Moving Soldiers 1. When you've selected a Soldier and chosen his destination, press B. This will tell the Soldier to move toward the Cursor's location. The next Soldier on the Info Line then becomes the selected Soldier. 2. To move multiple Soldiers to the same location, press B several times, rapidly. 3. To make a Soldier follow the Cursor around the screen, hold down B when moving the Cursor. To make the Soldier stop following the Cursor, let up on the B button. COMMANDOS Selecting Commandos The currently selected Commando is marked with a circle in a 1 Player game or 2 Player Head To Head game. In a 2 Player Side By Side, 3 Player, or 4 Player game, the currently selected Commando is marked by a Circle or a Star, depending on which player is controlling him. See the descriptions of 2 Player Side By Side, 3 Player, or 4 Player games in this manual for more information. To switch between Commandos, press C Moving Commandos 1. There is no movement Cursor for Commandos. The selected Commando's movement is directly controlled by the D-Pad: Press the D-Pad in the direction you want the selected Commando to go. 2. To call the other Commando to the selected Commando's position, press B. Terrain & Obstacles Soldiers encounter many different types of terrain and obstacles during campaigns. These can slow their movement in a variety of ways-tripping over rocks, running into trees, stumbling over crates, etc. Water Water is a special problem. There will be many instances when your troops will have to cross bodies of water. But Soldiers move through water at a much slower speed than they travel over land. And if a Soldier spends an extended amount of time in the water, he will eventually become exhausted and drown. (Medics cannot help a drowning Soldier.) So when you send a Soldier into water, get him back out again as soon as possible. WEAPONS COMBAT Press A to fire all your Squad's weapons. Soldiers will aim at the nearest target, but it is up to you to put them in position so their fire will be effective. CLOSE COMBAT When Soldiers from opposing Squads come too close to each other to use weapons, hand-to-hand- Close Combat results. A cloud of dust means a Close Combat has begun(nearby Soldiers may be knocked aside by the hand-to-hand fury). All other activity stops while a Close Combat is in progress: Weapons combat is suspended and other Soldiers will not move or respond to commands. Some Close Combats are over as soon as the dust clears-one Soldier has already defeated the other. Many Close Combats, though, require the player or players to guide their soldier's tactics. There are three basic moves in close combat that are activated by pressing the appropriate button: Press A to Punch, press B to Kick, and press C to Block. Punches and Kicks can also be directed high or low: 1. Press the D-Pad Up at the same time you press A to direct a Punch high. Press the D-Pad Up at the same time you press B to direct a Kick high. 2. Press the D-Pad Down at the same time you press A to direct a Punch low. Press the D-Pad Down at the same time you press B to direct a Kick low. 3. Press A or B without moving the D-Pad to deliver a mid-level Punch or Kick. Each Close Combat participant's Health is displayed as a row of dots at the top of the screen: Red dots for the Red Soldier, Blue dots for the Blue Soldier. As a Soldier's Health decreases when he is hit or kicked, his dots decrease, too. A Soldier will lose the Close Combat when all his dots are gone. Note: It is recommended that you vary your Close Combat moves or you'll suffer a surprise from your opponent. 2, 3, and 4 Player Games 2 Player Head to Head Game This game pits a Blue Team against a Red Team. You can match a full five-man Squad against another five-man Squad, a five-man Squad against a two-man Commando team, or Commandos against Commandos. 2 Player Side By Side Game You can play a 2 Player Side By Side game with either two standard controllers or a four player adapter. Both players are on the same team, and each player controls a pair of Commandos who face a single enemy team of five Soldiers. Player 1 selects the battle amp as well as the Squads. Player 1 controls the Alpha Commando Team, and Player 2 controls the Beta Commando Team. Alpha team Commandos are highlighted by a circle and Beta Team Commandos are highlighted by a star. 3 Player Game There are two possible player configurations in a 3 Player game: *An Alpha Commando unit controlled by Player 1 and a Beta Commando unit controlled by Player 2 vs. a five-man Squad controlled by Player 3. *An Alpha Commando unit controlled by Player 1 and a Beta Commando unit controlled by Player 2 vs. a single Commando team controlled by Player 3. On the two-player side, Player 1 selects the battle map when he and Player 2 are the attacking army. Player 1 also makes the squad selection. Alpha Team Commandos are highlighted by a circle and beta Team Commandos are highlighted by a star. Blue Squads and red Squads can attack each other only; a Blue Squad cannot attack the other Blue Squad. 4 Player game Each player will control a Commando unit. Players 1(Blue Alpha Commandos) and 2(Blue Beta commandos) form the Blue Team, and Players 3(Red Alpha Commandos) and 4(Red Beta Commandos) form the Red Team. Blue Squads and Red Squads can attack each other only; a Blue Squad cannot attack the other Blue Squad, and Red Squads cannot attack each other. MEDICS Medics are the only personnel who can't be wounded by the combat that rages around them. When one of your Soldiers goes down, you can call a Medic who will run out to treat the Soldier on the field, or take him to safety, treat his wounds, and send him back into battle. For Five Man Squads To send in a Medic for a member of a five man Squad: 1. Move your Cursor onto a downed Soldier. The Cursor will become a Cross when it is over a Soldier who needs a Medic.(Note that the Cursor will change only when you have Medics available.) 2. Press A. When the Soldier is ready to reenter battle, he'll run onto the screen towards the current location of the Cursor. If you don't call a Medic quick enough, your downed man's wounds may become fatal. If you have no medics, naturally you can't send any in to patch up your wounded. You begin each game with 5 Medics. You earn one Medic at 10,000, 25,000, and 50,000 points. More Medics can be earned by picking up Medic Bonuses. Medic bonuses appear on some battlefields; each is worth varying numbers of additional Medics. But no matter how many Medic Bonuses you pick up, or what their value is, you can never have more than 9 Medics. For Commandos To call in a Medic for a Commando, move the active Commando to his downed partner and press A. If you have only one Commando left, you cannot call a Medic to help him if he goes down. Sudden Death Sometimes, when a Soldier who has already been hit in the line of duty is hit by a shell from a Launcher's bazooka, he will die instantly. You'll know he's passed on when he is reduced to bones and crumbles to dust. When this happens, even a Medic can't help him. SPECIAL OBJECTIVES 1. Sometimes, the Mission Description will include a Special Objective, such as destroying an aircraft or protecting a tank. The name of the commanding general who is issuing the Special Order, Chaos or Havoc, is displayed beside the Special Objective text. 2. The Special Objective is intended for the side that chose the map. For example, Havoc(Red Team) chooses a Battlefield. The Mission Description includes the Special Objective of destroying a building. The Red Team must try to destroy the building, and the Blue Team must try to protect it. The successful side will receive points when the battle is over. 3. To Destroy a Special Objective, move your soldiers(especially Launchers, Blasters, and Chuckers) near it. They will target the Objective. Note that Gunners and Scorchers will not target a Special Objective. Sometimes it takes multiple hits to destroy the Objective. Hint: For best results, position the Special Objective between your squad and the enemy squad. PLUNDER On all battle maps, there is Plunder to pick up. Plunder can take the form of gold dust, gold bars, ammo, secret documents, or moneybags. To pick up Plunder: 1. Move a Soldier to it or over it and he will pick it up automatically. 2. A Soldier does not have to stop to pick up Plunder. If he runs over it on his way to another part of the map, he will still pick it up. Safes & Crates Most Plunder is out in the open, but some is hidden in crates or safes. You need to open them to get to the Plunder they conceal. To open a safe or crates, position one of your Soldiers in such a way that he can blast it open. (Or position one of your Soldiers so that an enemy will blast open the safe while trying to blast him.) General Chaos Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * At the end of each battle, a Battle report will appear, It tells you how many Medical Personnel you have left after the last battle and adds up your points. * You are awarded points for every items of Plunder you pick up. * Battlefields are worth varying numbers of points. When you win a Battlefield, you win its points. For instance, Capitals are worth more than other battlefields, and Battlefields that have Special Objectives are usually worth more than Battlefields that don't. Total Acreage refers to the number of points you are awarded for winning a battlefield. * A Casualty is scored every time an enemy is knocked down, either by weapon fire or in Close Combat. * In the battle for the capital, collect your plunder first, then worry about troop placement.

GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Generations Lost Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text SOLVING THE MYSTERY Generations Lost is a mystery, a quest, and an adventure, with plenty of action to test your courage and your reflexes...plus puzzles and strategies to challenge your wits. The Geezer sends you off with words of warning and hope, and gives you a suit with strange and magical powers. Through experience you will learn how to use those powers wisely. Only at the end of your journey, through many lands and dangers, will you come to understand the fate of the lost generations-and your own destiny. Generations Lost Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text General Controls Start: Pause/resume play. Press and hold, then release to go to Inventory/Transnode map. When in Transnode map, tap to go to the highlighted node or level D-Pad: On Transnode map, cycle through levels and sectors on the map Up/Down only: On Inventory, cycle through items held Controlling Monobe D-Pad: Move Monobe Button A: Fire E-Rad Button B: Punch Button C: Jump; swing from Plunker when Plunkers are activated Combinations Left/Right and A Button: Use key to open locker Up and A Button: Repel up using E-Rad Down and A Button: Energize your E-Rad when on an E-Rad energizer Generations Lost Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Lives and Life Energy You begin each game with three lives. You may accumulate more by collecting power-ups found in lockers along the way. Displayed in the upper left corner of the screen is your life energy indicator, which tells you how healthy you are. Life Energy Indicator When the indicator is green and rapidly active, your health is robust. As you take blows from enemies and your health deteriorates, your chest armor sparkles and the life energy indicator slows down, turning first yellow, then red. As the indicator reaches the red stage, you have very little energy left before you lose your current life. When the ball stops moving, you've lost a life. When you lose your last life, the game ends, and you must start your quest over again. You may start from any level for which you know the password. On the first level and most other levels, you'll find at least one health power-up platform, which you can use to restore your life energy. To power-up your life energy, jump on a health power-up platform. As Monobe is surrounded by floating life energy beams, your life energy indicator will return to its healthiest state. Navigating the Six Levels There are six levels, or nodes, in the world of Generations Lost. Each has up to five separate sectors. On each level except the first, you'll come upon at least one Transnode, a chamber that can transport you between levels. To operate a Transnode, walk into it and press Start. You'll go to the Transnode map screen. On the map, you may choose the level you want to go to by pressing the D-Pad Up, Down, Left, or Right. You may always go back to Transnodes you have successfully traveled through before. To advance to new levels, however, you may need certain items in your inventory. You get an "ACCESS DENIED" message when you don't have all the items needed to advance to a level you've selected on the map. Sometimes, you'll also be told what you must add to your inventory in order to gain access to the level. Checkpoints and Passwords Scattered through the world of Generations Lost, you'll come upon various checkpoints that mark your progress toward the solution to the mystery. Checkpoint Marker Once you've passed a checkpoint, its marker changes in appearance. Checkpoint Marker Already Passed If you lose a life and have lives remaining, you'll restart play at the last checkpoint you passed. As you make progress through the game, new passwords will be revealed to you when the Geezer talks to you at the end of certain levels. Always look for passwords at the end of his dialogue, and write down each and every password you're given. If you lose all your lives and the game ends, or if you want a break, you'll need to enter a password to resume play close to where you left off. You can enter any password you know from the OPTIONS menu. You'll start play in the sector where you were issued that password. The Energy Radiator(E-Rad) The Energy Radiator, or E-Rad, is the most useful, most versatile power of your special suit-both a weapon and a unique means of moving around. You can fire your E-Rad only when it's fully energized. Each time you use it, it must re-energize itself before you can use it again. Appearing in the upper right corner of the screen is the E-Rad energy meter. It's white when the E-Rad is fully energized, and flashes purple while the E-Rad is re-energizing itself. To fire your E-Rad as a weapon, press the A Button. The E-Rad fires in the direction you're facing, and can effectively damage any enemy within range. To repel up with your E-Rad, press and hold the D-Pad up and press the A Button. The E-Rad sends up a repelling beam, which attaches to any solid surface it meets and then lifts you up to that surface. To repel down with your E-Rad, press and hold the D-Pad down and press the A Button. When you find that its length is limited, you may need to supercharge your E-Rad. This makes it longer and more powerful, but supercharging lasts only until you sustain a limited amount of damage from enemies. To supercharge your E-Rad, jump onto an E-Rad supercharger, then press and hold the D-Pad down while you press the A Button. You can also quick-charge your E-Rad, by collecting a quick-charger from a locker. When quick-charged, your E-Rad has the added capability of rapid fire. Plunkers Plunkers-from which you can swing over land and water-enable you to travel fast while eluding enemies and other dangers. Plunkers are active only in Plunker zones, which are marked by Plunker Markers. To use Plunkers, jump and hold down the C Button. Gathering Items To succeed, even to survive, you'll have to gather power-ups, fast E-Rad chargers, puzzle solutions, elevator keys, and other items along the way. You hold these items in your inventory, which always displays your Energy Radiator. Lives Remaining To view your inventory, press and hold the Start Button, then release it. You may press the D-Pad up and down to scroll through the items in your inventory. As each one is highlighted, you'll see a description of it in the lower right quadrant of the screen. Lockers Some items are concealed inside lockers. When you find a locker, somewhere nearby will be a lock that you must unlock to open the locker. While standing next to the lock, press and hold the D-Pad Left or Right, and press the A Button. Then walk past the open locker to pick up the items inside it. Other important items to look for include shields, which protect you for a limited time against danger, and pieces of the Polyphase Conductor. E-Rad Quick Charger When quick-charged, your E-Rad has the added capability of rapid fire. Enemies Camorock: Found primarily in the Agricultural Sector, these creatures can be lethal if they hit you. Armafer: Found primarily in the Agricultural Sector, these beasts will throw stones at you, causing you great harm if they hit you. Monkey: These protect the Propulsion Sector from intruders. Guardian: These creatures guard the Mountain Face. Dollick: Defeat this nasty guy to gain a piece of the Cap Key. Generations Lost Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * You can jump or E-Rad onto platforms above or below you. Generally, you can E-Rad farther up than you can jump. * Try different kinds of blows on the various enemies you meet. You can knock out birds with a punch or two; you may have to shoot other enemies with your E-Rad. * You can simply punch away the arrows that your adversaries will shoot at you in barrages. * This cat can be your friend when you reach the Cat Dungeon. * To understand the game, it's very important to read the story of Generations Lost as it appears on the screen during your journey. * It's not essential to explore all of the secret rooms you come upon, but you'll find that they often contain useful power-ups and other helpful items. * If you get lost or stuck, try everything. There are many things to discover and secrets to unlock in Generations Lost. * Remember that the E-Rad can shoot enemies above you as well as those in front of you. * Be sure to keep your E-Rad fully charged-you never know when you're going to need it.

Attack the Skeletons as a defensive move only, they are indestructible. Another way, is to run (same direction on the Control Pad, twice), and attack him, this way he will not hit you.

And he's accompanied by his clan of evil followers who are creepier, slimier and more disgusting than ever.

Gods Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Status: To determine your play status, check these screen features: * Lives: See the lower left corner. * Energy: Yours is in the far lower left corner; the guardian's is in the far right corner. * Inventory: Up to three objects are shown in the four boxes in the lower center of the screen. * Score: See the lower right corner. * Message scroll: Appears with hints or clues when you solve puzzles, avoid traps, or collect bonus gems. * Bank account: Your account balance is listed below your score. Combat: In order to fulfill your quest, you must venture through the levels of the city. These are now the home of chaotic hordes of monsters which must be overcome. To do this, you must fight. Scattered throughout the city are many weapons; some are powerful and others weak. These weapons are essential if you are to defeat the creatures you will face. As well as weapons that you may find, it is possible to purchase others at shops located within each level. Different weapons have different strengths and qualities. Discovering the nature of each weapon will help you succeed. Money and Shopping: The city is fabled to be rich in treasure and gold, though no one has ever returned to confirm it. For the best chance of success, you need to collect as much of this treasure as possible. The money can then be used to buy weapons, potions, and health in the shops dotted throughout the levels. These shops are reached by walking over a special token, which calls the shopkeeper to escort you to his store. The description of the item and price are displayed in a window below the arches. Your cash is displayed at the bottom of the screen. To leave the shop, press on the arch labeled EXIT. All the items you have purchased will be available as soon as you leave the shop. If you buy a weapon that replaces one you are already carrying, half the value of the lost weapon will be added to your cash. Treasure may be revealed by destroying monsters or solving puzzles. Shields and starbursts will be removed when you confront the guardian at the end of each level. Potions can be collected either by finding them in the city or buying them in a shop. If a potion is collected, it takes immediate effect. Certain potions that are bought in the shop can be carried and only take effect if they are dropped from your inventory. Traps and Puzzles: The most cunning methods employed by the dwellers of the city are puzzles and traps. Some of the puzzles are simple, requiring only the throwing of a switch to advance further. Other puzzles are much more complex, involving collecting objects, finding keys, and acquiring special weapons. Traps take several forms but most are lethal, their spiked flails causing death unless you can escape them quickly. The puzzles that you will face are many and varied. All puzzles are one of two types: progression puzzles and reward puzzles. Progression puzzles need to be solved in order to complete the world or progress. Reward puzzles are not essential to the completion of the game; these puzzles provide rewards that can take the form of extra treasure, shortcuts, or other benefits. Hidden rooms are a typical example of a reward puzzle. The entrance to a hidden room may be found by examining the background-there may be a platform that cannot normally be reached or a passage blocked by a wall. As reward puzzles are not essential, they may involve a considerable amount of danger. Particularly strong monsters may protect the route that leads to the reward. Progression Puzzles are usually simple in nature than reward puzzles; however these puzzles often contain traps if they are not solved correctly. Progression puzzles often require that you recover an item, such as a key or teleport gem. These items will then let you into the next section of the world. Puzzles may be simple, requiring only one action to solve them; others require combinations of one or more events to trigger them. These actions include: throwing switches, completing sections within a limited time, or finding and returning objects to a specific location. As well as puzzles, there are also many hidden bonuses. These provide rewards at certain points if you complete a section in a good time or lose minimal energy or lives. The bonuses take the form of treasure or potions that will make completing the next section easier. Once a puzzle is complete, the object used to solve it will be removed from your inventory. Clues: To assist you, there are many clues that can be picked up. Clues take the form of special tokens. Collecting them causes a message or clue to appear in the Message Scroll. These clues may help define the quest for the level, provide a hint or a solution to a puzzle, or reveal the location of an object. All clue messages are displayed when you collect the token. They cannot be redisplayed, so take careful note of their contents. The Four Great Levels and Four Gigantic Guardians: The city has four levels, with each level being split into three worlds. AT the end of each level is an enormous guardian. These are the monsters you were sent to destroy. All the minions and treasure belong to these fearsome creatures and each is determined to retain its power. Scoring: As well as completing this great quest, there may also be some honor in having achieved a good score. You receive points for destroying monsters, collecting treasure, and solving puzzles. At the end of each world, a bonus is added to your score. This bonus is affected by the number of lives remaining and health as shown by the Energy meter. At the end of the game, your score will be placed into the hall of fame. To input your name, follow the same procedure as entering a password. Bonus lives will be awarded for "landmark" scores. Losing Lives and Restarting: You have three lives in which to complete the game. Each level consists of several worlds. You return to the world in which you lost a life with all your weapons. Password: When you complete a level, you get a password that lets you reenter the game at the beginning of that level. You restart the game inside a shop, which lets you purchase health, weapons, and potions. Gods Monsters and Items Use Up/Down to scroll text Monsters: Over the years since the Gods abandoned it, the city has become the home of many chaotic beasts. These are ruled by four gigantic guardians who use them to protect their fortunes. The monsters you will meet are by no means stupid; some will be stronger than others and some will be more deadly, but all are united in their cause to thwart your quest. Some of these inhabitants are able to avoid your attempts to destroy them. Collecting several of the same weapon will make your shots more effective. Several weapons may be used at the same time. Find out which are compatible for ultimate fighting ability. Then strike with precision. Whatever monster you meet, it is wise to study its behavior and from this knowledge learn the nature of all your adversaries. Within the first level the monsters you will meet will have only one aim-to destroy you. As you press into the temple and beyond, you will meet creatures who will try to steal the few precious items to be found. * The physical appearance of a monster indicates its nature and its objectives. Destroyer: These are very intelligent. Their objective is to destroy you, and they will pursue you throughout the level in order to do so. Flier: As well as trying to destroy you, these monsters are able to avoid your shots; the more intelligent ones will prove very elusive. Thief: These monsters try to steal objects from you. They will also try to grab and run away with any objects not yet acquired. Because of this tendency, it is possible to delay them by leaving treasure scattered throughout the world. If there is no treasure available, they will try to destroy you. * Because of their varying objectives, monsters can be used to help you. For example, suppose you find a cross but cannot reach it. If a thief is chasing you, it will steal the cross. You can drop the attract potion, then destroy the thief to recover the cross. A guide to weapons and potions: Weapons * Dagger: One of the weakest weapons you may come across. * Shurikans: Stronger than daggers, these travel through monsters. * Fireballs: Can be used at the same time as a conventional weapon, such as a dagger or shurikan. * Spears: Pass through monsters and platforms to cause great damage. Potions and Stuff: * Attract: Causes all monsters to attack you. * Large Shield: Can be bought or collected; it lasts for the whole of the current world and reduces your damage by half. * Small Shield: Can be bought or collected; it lasts 15 seconds and protects you from damage and also destroys any monsters who run into it. * Wideshot: One of three shot-directing tokens, this spreads the shot for maximum effect against fliers. * Food: Comes in several forms; it replaces lost energy but is not as powerful as the health potions. * Shop: Step on a token to call the shopkeeper. Keys: In order to protect the city from unwelcome intruders, the Gods placed many doors to block their progress. These doors are extremely strong and can resist all attempts to demolish them. To open them, it is often necessary to have the correct key in your inventory. As well as doors, the inhabitants have entrusted their valuables to locked chests. These containers may only be opened using the correct key. These are smaller than keys used to open doors and are colored to correspond with the chest they open. Like their larger relatives, these keys are not easy to obtain and are usually well protected by monsters, traps, or puzzles. The treasure within these chests may be used to purchase weapons or potions at the shops that are found throughout the city. When a key has been used, it will be discarded automatically. Doors can lead to rooms, teleport you to new locations, or let you progress along passages. Special gems are also able to teleport you. To open a chest, pick up the key and walk past the chest. To open a door, pick up the key and walk to the door. Using the arrow keys, face the wall and press the A button to pull the lever. The color and shape of a key indicates what type of door or entrance it will open: Vertical Keys: There are three vertical keys: Gold (teleport), Bronze (room), and Iron (trapdoor/moving block). Horizontal Keys: There are three horizontal keys: Gold (end of level or world), Bronze (treasure room), and Iron (door). The color of a chest and its corresponding key are indicative of the value of its contents: Gold chests (greatest value), Bronze (average value), and Iron chests (lowest value).

Grind Stormer Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text The Game Screen is made up of two major parts-the Playfield and the Status Bar (located on the right side). The Playfield is where the action takes place. The Status Bar includes vital information such as the current High Score, your current score, the number of bombs you have (up to the maximum of 6), plus the number of credits remaining. Weapons: During play, you have the opportunity to use several different weapons by gaining different power-ups. These weapons work as described below: Power: This makes the shots you fire more powerful. Will work with all other power-ups. S-Down: This causes the ship to move and maneuver slower on the screen. Note: Only available after the ship is at full speed. Missile: This allows the ship to fire missiles. Also, the side pods of the ship will follow the main ship around, firing as long as the main ship fires. Search: This causes the side pods to seek out targets and attach themselves until that target has been destroyed. This is particularly useful when there are a lot of enemies. S-Up: This causes the space ship to move and maneuver faster on the screen. Additional "S-Up" will cause the ship to move even faster until the ship has reached maximum speed. Shot: This makes the ship fire as it does when the game starts. Diamond: This gives you another bomb (6 max.). Grind Stormer Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text BONUS GAME: V-FIVE: This is another complete game, included for free! It plays very similar to Grind Stormer, with a few minor changes. First, there are no bombs in V-FIVE. Second, the way you get special weapons is different. There is a status bar on the right side just where the bomb indicators were in the Grind Stormer game. Each time you get one of the diamonds, it advances the indicator one step. If you press the B Button when the indicator is highlighted, that weapon takes effect.

GROWL.O

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME WEAPONS THE BATTLEFIELD BROWSE HELP FILES Growl Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text The Story So Far It is the year 1998. A worldwide craze to own rare and exotic pets has led to the near extinction of many species. Of course, these species are protected by law, but no one seems to want to listen. Compelled by the prestigious status it brings to own exotic pets, people are willing to pay the big bucks. The sellers, of course, are getting rich in the process. The Protectors of Animals' World Society (PAWS) has made it their number one goal to bring a stop to this horrible trade. It's main target is a clandestine organization operating under the cover name The Rendow Animal Protection Organization (RAPO). Now, this name would imply they are concerned with animal welfare. Quite the contrary! They are nothing but a bunch of greedy low-lifes operating the world's largest poaching and smuggling ring. And with little concern for wildlife of any kind! The ring is reportedly based in the port city of Machanga, but every PAWS agent sent there to investigate has turned up missing. Recently, Interpol agents found the body of one of the missing PAWS agents. Obviously the victim of foul play, the body had bullet wounds in the abdomen and what looked like animal teeth marks on one shoulder. In the victim's stomach, uncovered during the autopsy, was a microfilm wrapped in plastic. Although the microfilm shed no light on the case, it did provide an added wrinkle--the seven photographs were of strange beasts that could only be described as monsters. The frustrated PAWS leaders have decided to send four special agents into Machanga. These agents are licensed for destructive commando operations, but have been specially hand-picked for their concern and love for animals. Your agent has arrived in Machanga, and now waits to make contact with another PAWS agent.

Growl The Battlefield Use Up/Down to scroll text Field 1: Machanga In a dive bar in Machanga, our man is waiting to make contact with a PAWS agent. Suddenly, a grenade flies at him! He takes cover instantly, survives the blast, then pulls a weapon from the crate and starts his counter-attack. Knowing that his contact will not show up, our man goes out into the city. He finds a man beating a lion in an open square, and he attacks with fury. He finds a mysterious man loading a consignment of rare birds onto a train bound for the port. When our man thinks that he's taken care of the whole gang, one last goon appears-in a dynamite vest! Field 2: The Unwelcome Passenger Thinking the train will take him to some useful information, our man jumps on top of the train. But the train is full of RAPO goons, every one out for blood. Field 3: Down on the Docks The train reaches its destination as the enemy attacks grow stronger. Our man knows he's getting closer to his goal, because the streets are full of RAPO men. There's no way out without a fight. The last group of goons give our man a clue about what RAPO is up to-four giants, all with the same face! But to get to the ring-leader, he'll have to beat the giants, one by one. Field 4: Cargo of Death After knocking out the giants, our man discovers a secret pier with a cargo ship docked there. He curses RAPO when he finds elephants caged on board, and sets out to free them as quickly as possible. After he has beaten the RAPO crew, our man meets another giant, this one with his face covered by a cloth bag. As our man winds up for the knockout blow after a fierce battle, the giant begs for mercy. Field 5: Jungle Battle Our man sights land and beaches the ship, but as he enters the forest he's met by an artillery barrage! Facing a tank, he thinks that his road ends here. But...what about the elephants? Field 6: Daggers in the Dark Our man finds a tunnel that can only be the entrance to the smugglers' stronghold. He lights a torch and enters, but the tunnel guards jump him from the darkness. He can't use his special moves because he's holding the torch, so he has to dodge and jump past the guards. Field 7: The RAPO Base The tunnel empties onto the edge of a cliff. The ledge gives way, and as he struggles to hold on, an eagle flies near. He grabs it and it takes him to the enemy base. Now it's time to take on the RAPO ringleader and save the endangered animals.

Now it's up to YOU to spot the missing scrolls as well as bonus points and much more! Your quest takes you deep underground where the dragons live, on a wild magic-carpet ride in old Arabia and into the hands of some pretty massive giants! Keep a sharp lookout for fun in this colorful fantasy for the whole family! The Great Waldo Search Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text Controller 1: Button A: * Use to make all selections. * Press to collect items and people from the screen. * Also use to make selections from Whitebeard's crystal ball.

For those of you who wish to assist young players on their search for Waldo and the magic scrolls, we offer these helpful tactics. Make sure both controllers are inserted into the Genesis before beginning the game. If the person you are playing with needs assistance, take controller 2 and use as follows: Button A: Forces the movement to the screen containing Waldo, then the screen containing the magic scroll, then the screen containing Woof. This happens only when Button A is being held. Button B: If the player just needs a little extra time to complete the search, press the B Button to turn off the time function. The Great Waldo Search Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Press Start to begin the game. You are given the choices between Normal and Expert levels. The Normal mode is for beginners. The objects are easier to find because they are more fully exposed. The Expert mode has the same objects, but they are harder to spot because you see even less of them than in the Normal mode. Once you have chosen either the Normal or Expert difficulty level, you can choose which of the 5 areas to begin your search. The areas are: Land of the Gargantuas Kingdom of the Carpet Flyers Water Monks vs. Fire Druids The Enchanted Underground Land of the Waldos You can choose any of them in any order you wish by pressing Button A when the picture from the realm you wish to visit appears in Whitebeard's crystal ball. The clock starts running when you arrive at each level, so search quickly! What to Look For Scrolls: You need to find a scroll in each level in order to complete your search. Clocks: Get bonus time and points for every clock you obtain! Look for special clocks in the Expert level. Point Markers: Small plates with scores on them will add to your total point score by collecting them. Woof: When you find Waldo's dog you will be taken to a bonus round. You'll see him flying a magic carpet over a fantastic cityscape. Grab all the bonus points you can by maneuvering the carpet with the control pad. You'll return to the level you were searching after the bonus round is completed. Waldo: Well, what would this game be called if you weren't looking for you-know-who? You need to find Waldo (and the scroll) in each level to graduate to the next one. Special Game Notes * When playing in either the Normal or Expert games, you will return to the Selection Stage after successfully completing each search. You can choose which level to try next. * Because time if of the essence, you must complete the search in each level before the clock runs out. Collecting hidden clocks throughout each level buys you some extra searching time. If you run out of time, you will see a lose screen and your points will be tallied up. If you wish to keep playing a continue feature returns you to a new game. * If you return to play after a loss, an extra clock will be awarded to you (to give you just a little more time). * In the Normal and Expert game there are special clocks that freeze the action of the main game to give you a bonus item to search for. There is a written clue to this item that appears on the screen. Look carefully! Once again, good luck on your search for the magic scrolls!

G-Loc Air Battle Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text After you've started the game, the next screen you see will be an overhead view of the Mission Room, inside the aircraft carrier. In the center of the screen you'll see a map of the Areas you'll be flying through. Each Area has a number of Missions you have to succeed in before going to the next Area. Also, you must achieve the Hit Ratio in each Mission for that Mission to be a success, and for you to continue to the next Mission. The Hit Ratio is the number of targets you need to hit, out of all the targets you'll meet up with. H.Q. has files on the enemy's strength, and they need to reduce that strength by a certain amount, or the war will swing over to the enemy's favor. And you don't want that to happen. You are fully armed and fully fueled for the first Area, but once you make it through the first Area, you'll need to re-equip your fighter for the next battle. Once you finish looking over the map of the Area you'll be attacking, the Equip screen will appear. Press the D-Pad right or left to see your options and the Point cost for each weapon. Select the options by pressing Buttons A, B or C. Air-to-Ground Missiles: Your fighter is equipped with high-performance missiles to knock out targets on the ground or in the water. Altogether, you can carry as many as 80 missiles. Air-to-Air Missiles: Your fighter carries up to 80 of these heat-seeking missiles, specifically designed for swift-strike action. They are computer-guided, and once they lock on, they always reach the target. Always. Heavy Bullets: These armor-penetrating shells will be especially helpful on the later Missions. These are short-range weapons, but very effective. Armor: Your jet starts out without armor, and when the enemy planes start putting holes in your fuselage, you're going to start thinking about a little extra protection. You have a choice between Light, Medium and Heavy armor. Press the D-Pad up or down to see your armor choices. Once you're through making your choices, press the Start Button to take off from the carrier. Good luck! Flight Systems and Controls You'll be flying using two perspectives. The first is from inside the cockpit of your fighter. Here are the indicators you'll be seeing form this perspective: Current Score: This shows how many points you've received so far. Fuel Status: This gauge shows you what your remaining fuel supply is. If you're using your afterburner a lot, keep an eye on this gauge to make sure you aren't low on fuel. Radar: This shows you where the targets are coming from. The bottom line is your wing line, and the red line ahead of the plane is the farthest away you can reasonably expect to bring down the enemy planes with your cannon. Beyond this point, you should lock on with your targeting computer and nail 'em with missiles. Remaining Weapons: This indicator shows you what kind of weapons you have remaining. Plane Damage: This visual indicator shows you where you've been damaged or destroyed. Damage Level: This indicator shows how much total damage you've taken. Once this indicator reaches the top, your fighter is bound to break up, so when this indicator is near the top, take extra care to avoid being hit by the enemy. Artificial Horizon: This gauge shows you whether you're flying level or not. Afterburner Power: As you use your afterburner, this gauge will show the increase in power. Crosshairs: The white crosshairs show where your targeting computer is pointing. A green set of crosshairs will appear on a potential target when it's in range. Once it locks on the target, a set of red crosshairs appears on that target. Your computer has locked onto the target. Confirmed Hits: This indicator appears in fraction form. The left number is the number of enemies you've hit, and the right number is the total number you need to go on to the next Mission. Time Remaining: This number shows the amount of time you have remaining in the current Mission. The second perspective is from the rear of the fighter. Watch your jet make sharp turns and 360-degree rolls from a third-person perspective! The indicators are the same here as inside the cockpit. G-Loc Air Battle Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Report from Command H.Q. * Flying full throttle makes it much harder to hit targets coming at you, as well as harder to avoid their missiles. Only use the afterburner enough to keep the enemies in front of you in range. * Try to anticipate the warning arrows when landing on your carrier. Keeping your jet close to the center of the landing strip will save you from a messy end to a distinguished career. * Timing is essential when using your missiles. Don't let one loose before you're sure it's locked on a target. If it's not targeted, you're guaranteed a miss.

Press B to direct your aim, hold B to determine shot height (the longer you hold B, the higher your shot) and release B to unleash your shot. Main Menu Exhibition: An Exhibition match is a one-off friendly between two teams of your choice. Tournament: The Head-On Soccer World Tournament is a 28-team knockout competition, featuring national sides from across the globe. Once you're chosen a country to represent your progress through the contest by beating the world's best in four continental groups of seven. There are 51 teams in the overall pool, so the competition structure looks like this: * First Round: Asia- 7 out of 8 teams. * Second Round: Africa- 7 out of 11 teams. * Third Round: Americas- 7 out of 12 teams. * Final Round: Europe- 7 out of 20 teams. Naturally, the quality of opposition improves as you progress, and you have the opportunity to strengthen your side. Before each match you are presented with the Tournament Start-up screen. Press Start to kick-off or C to return to the previous display. Options You can get to the Options screen from the Main Menu. Here, you can adjust the Time of your game, and the Difficulty level. You can also set different Switches. Press any button (in the Switches menu) to modify in-game preferences. The asterix (*) signifies a default. Here you can select whether or not you want to have Replays. Set ON to view an automatic action replay of every goal scored. To cut the replay short during a match, press Start. NOTE: Press B + C simultaneously to watch from the other side of the field. You can also select the Cameos. Cameos allow you to watch celebration sequences after every goal/victory. Finally, you can select to have Aggro On or Off. This determines the tolerance level of the referee when players commit fouls. Resume If you select Resume, then you can enter a 13-character password to resume play from the desired stage within a previously contended Tournament. Passwords are given before each match, except for the first match. After entering in your password, confirm it by pressing Start. Team Select To choose your team, move Left/Right (D-Pad) to scroll through the available countries. The field layout shows team formation. Standard players are displayed in the national colors, while Star Players are distinguished as stars. NOTE: In Tournament mode you begin with eleven Standard players. If you are playing an Exhibition match, use the above method to select Team 1 and then press the D-Pad down. Now move Left/Right to choose one of four different Field Types. NOTE: The playing surface is automatically allocated in a Tournament, according to the origin of your opponents (i.e. which continent they are from). Press the D-Pad down again and move left/right to select Team 2. When you are satisfied with the teams selected, press Start to continue. Head-On Soccer The Players Use Up/Down to scroll text The Players Head-On Soccer gives you the opportunity to intervene at any stage of a match. When a spare control pad is available during play, a "Press Start" message flashes on-screen. Press Start and move left/right to select which team you wish to join (highlighting the national flags) and press Start again to enter the fray. Head-On Soccer is not played by hordes of animated clones. Star players shine among Standard players, with individual characteristics, personalities and distinctive styles of play. The key to success in Head-On Soccer is to make full use of your Star players' special skills. Star players are distinguished on-field by striking individual features in their appearance and unique abilities. If you have trouble recognizing them, they are identified by a huge star floating above their heads when controlled. In Exhibition mode, Star players have already been appointed to each national team, in a wide variety of formations. Some sides are blessed with only one or two superstars, others boast a perfect eleven. Experiment with as many different teams as possible to find the right line-up to suit your style of play. Competing in a Tournament, Star players are not so freely available-you must earn them! Head-On Soccer employs a top-secret computer controlled talent scout, which assesses your performance in each match according to a predetermined set of hidden criteria. After each match, this assessment system is then used to reward you with bonus "credits", which are not revealed to you but used to determine which new Star signings are available. Star players want to play for quality teams, so if your performance in a match impresses the stable of superstars watching, they will offer to join your side. After an impressive performance, the Player Select screen appears to showcase the stars who are willing to sign-up. Highlight Select, move D-Pad left/right to scroll through the available players and choose your man. Move the D-Pad down and nominate the position you want him to play in your new team line-up by moving left/right and pressing Start to confirm. NOTE: Your new Star player is represented by a green dot on the field. Press Start to continue without recruiting a new Star player and your bonus "credits" (which remain secret) will be saved to give you more weight in the transfer market after the next match. Player Profiles: Standard Player Average, run-of-the-mill, no frills, no thrills ordinary Joe Bloggs. He can't even manage a back heel or put a decent shot into the goal (all Star players can back heel and cross the ball). Standard man's strongest asset is his consistency-he is consistently ordinary. Barger: Shoulder-barging, iron-pumping, muscle-bound, rough 'n ready hard man of Head-On Soccer. This rock-solid powerhouse flattens any opponents who get in his way-hard enough to make sure that they don't get up again for a long while! The Cheat: Slippery and sly, snide and sneering, unscrupulous, Oscar-winning, referee-fooling, slap-headed CHEAT! When he dives in the midfield, The Cheat has a 50-50 chance of winning a free kick-the odds are reduced to 25% for a penalty in the box. The Marker: Tight-marking, shirt-tugging, boot-stomping, hair-pulling, nose-biting, man-to-man marker. This solid team player has no special move, but he will stick to key opponents like glue, He won't give them an inch. Passer: Clinically-precise, technically perfect, prime physical specimen with an uncanny ability to find the forwards with inch-perfect, defense-splitting long balls. Tricky: Silky-skilled, weaving, leaping, dazzling dribbler who dances through dumb defenders' desperate lunges and makes inspirational darting dashes up field with the ball stuck to his feet. Striker 1: Stylish-swerving, spectacular-swinging, killer-curling, bombastic-bending, banana-kicking legend with the awesome ability to fire the ball on a wicked curve around impossible angles. Striker 2: Power-blasting, thunder-bolting, fire-cracking, net-busting, hammer-thumping, disintegrating, woodwork-whacking, whip-lashing, thigh-slapping, rocket-blazing, ball-bursting, bone-breaking hot-shot hero! The Final Whistle: After an Exhibition match, you are given the opportunity to replay the game by pressing Start within ten seconds. The Tournament is a knockout competition, so if you lose a match, you're out! However, if you feel that defeat was unjust or simply can't bear to start all over again, you have the option to replay the match and rewrite history, by pressing Start within ten seconds of the final whistle.

He's all by himself in a big empty neighborhood. A couple of burglars, Harry and Marv, have it all figured out. They'll break into each house and load up their van with loot.

Home Alone Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text It's a perfect day for some fun on a sled. Or is it? A sneaky-looking van is prowling the streets. Kevin needs to find out where it's headed and do something about it! Zip around the snowy yards, bashing into the snowmen to pick up items you need. Some snowmen may be empty. Press Button A, B or C to speed up. Whee! What a blast! Watch your Charge meter so you don't run low on power. Be careful on the slick streets, sidewalks and frozen ponds. If you go too fast you might take an icy ride straight into a tree! Steer clear of bushes, fire hydrants and other obstacles. Don't crash into the houses. Battering into immovable objects will boomerang your sled out of control, and you'll lose precious time. With time running out, decide what you'll do first. You've got a little over one minute before Harry and Marv start looting. In Beginner play, they break into the Mansion first, but in an Expert game you don't know where they'll start! You can either sled around picking up items, or go into an empty house and lay traps for the burglars. (While you're in a house, see what items you can pick up for making weapons.) Watch for the van. If you see it on the street, you can follow it until it parks in a driveway. If you can't find it right away, sled around until it turns up. The Loot meter appears when the crooks have entered a house and begun looting. Sneak into the house behind the burglars and see what you can do to stop them. During the sledding screens, the screen will display the following: Score: In the upper left hand corner. ETA: (Estimated Time of Arrival) How much time you have left to keep the neighborhood safe before the police arrive. Houses: Starts out at 5, for all the houses in the neighborhood. If Harry and Marv successfully loot and flood a house, you lose one number. If all the houses get flooded, you lose the game. Tires: How many Tires you have to use. Find more Tires under the snowmen. Try to have at least two or three Tires when you enter a house, so you can get the items that are stashed higher up. Charge Meter: Shows your sled's power. The meter flashes red when you're running on empty. You can't go fast if you run out of juice. Find a blue Battery under a snowman to restore the meter to full power. Loot Meter: Appears when the housebreakers are ransacking a house. The bar in the meter gets longer as the bandits collect more valuables. When the bar is full, Harry and Marv have cleaned out the place, and you've lost your chance to save it. Setting Traps: Slide up near the doorway of a house. When you stop, you'll see the message "Enter the House?" Press Button A, B or C to go in. NOTE: You won't be able to enter a house that's already been ransacked and flooded. You'll see a blueprint of the house as soon as you enter, and a list of the traps you have. Now you can set ambushes to stymie the crooks. If Harry and Marv are already in the house, you're too late to set traps, so you won't see the blueprint. To Set Traps: 1. Use the D-Button to move the Hand to the trap you want. 2. Press Button A, B or C to highlight the trap. 3. With the D-Button again, place the Hand somewhere on the blueprint. 4. Press Button A, B or C to set the trap at that location in the house. 5. If the trap cannot be placed there, you'll hear the "Unh" sound. Move the Hand to another location and try again. Kinds of Traps: You start the game with three of each kind of trap. Use them on the Blueprints/Traps screen to boobytrap the rooms. Some traps last longer than others. Kevin can be caught by traps, too, so jump to dodge them. * Set a Blow Torch in any doorway to put the heat on Harry and Marv. * Tacks scattered in any room get the crooks hoppin' mad. Watch them fall for Marbles and Toys. * Ice and Grease make any floor slippery. * Sticky Tar traps anybody who steps in it. NOTE: Tacks and Grease are only available in Expert game. Searching a House: Get rolling, 'cuz you don't have much time. Each house is loaded with items that you can use to make weapons. Bop through the rooms and keep your eyes open. When you see an item, jump up to grab it. You may need to climb on furniture, and even bounce on beds and overstuffed chairs. Yaaa! This is fun! When an item is high up, drop a Tire and bounce on it to snag the goodie. If an item is really high, you can drop two or even three Tires in a stack! If you don't have any Tires left, you'll hear the "Unh" sound when you try to drop one. Sometimes you can find two or more items in one place. Get them all-you can never have too many! The more items you get, the more weapons you can assemble to put the whammy on the crooks. Keep stocked up on the Ammo items you need so you don't run out of ammunition. Make trouble for Harry and Marv! Don't let them loot the safes, or they'll cart off all the valuables. Get them to chase you around the rooms. The traps you've set will make them slide, trip, yelp and fall on their backs. (Jump up to avoid the traps yourself!) Don't let the bandits catch you, or they'll hang you on a picture hook. Then you'll have to wiggle and squirm to get free. Blast them with your weapons. Each weapon's effect is different, but they all stop the burglars for a time. If you keep it up (and don't run out of ammo), you can make the robbers' Pain meter shoot sky high so they'll bail out of the house! But if Harry and Marv manage to flood a house while you're in it, you'll be put out in the snow. One more thing: each house has its own dangers. Watch out for housecats, giant spiders, rotten floors and other nasty surprises! 1. Ammo Meter: Shows how much ammunition you have left for your current weapon. You'll use up some ammo every time you fire. If you run out of one ammo load, such as snowballs, you'll start using another load from your stockpile. The meter flashes red when you're empty. Once you run out of ammo, your weapon won't be of any use until you get more. 2. Loot Meter: Appears when the housebreakers are ransacking a house. The bar in the meter gets longer as the bandits collect more valuables. When the bar is full, Harry and Marv have cleaned out the place, and you've lost your chance to save it. 3. Pain Meter: Appears when Harry and Marv are in the same house with you. The bar in the meter increases every time the crooks get hurt. So keep blasting away at them. If you can get the bar to fill the meter, the cowardly thieves will run for their lives and you'll save the house. Home Alone Weapons Use Up/Down to scroll text Assembling Weapons: Press Start to see the weapon parts you've collected and the weapons you have. (Kevin starts every game with his BB gun.) Use the Weapons Inventory screen to put together effective shooters for dealing with the crooks. To Assemble Weapons in Beginner Play: When you've collected the right parts to make a weapon, they'll appear in the Platform, Operator and Ammo boxes. Move the Hand to the Wrench and press Button A, B or C to make the weapon. You can continue making other weapons as long as you have the correct parts to put them together. To Assemble Weapons in Expert Play: 1. Use the D-Button to move the Hand to a weapon part. 2. Press Button A, B or C to place the part in the correct box. Fill all three boxes. 3. Move the Hand to the Wrench, and press Button A, B or C. If the parts you've chosen can make a weapon, it will appear at the top of the screen (and the parts will vanish from the boxes). To Place a Part Back in the List: Move the Hand cursor to it and press Button A, B or C. To Choose a Different Weapon: Move the Hand to the Up or Down Arrow next to the current weapon's name. Press Button A, B or C until you see the one you want. (You must assemble weapons before they are available to choose.) To Take a Weapon Apart: Empty the Platform, Operator and Ammo boxes. Then move the Hand to the Hammer and press Button A, B or C. You can now use the parts again, or put them back in the list. Weapon Items: You need three parts to make a weapon-a Platform, an Operator and Ammo. Here are the weapon parts: Platforms: Hair Dryers, Crossbows, Cans, Ice Cream Scoops, CD Players and Cameras. Operators: Rubber Bands, Wire and Balloons. Ammo: Snowballs, Hot Coals, Pepper, Glue, Super Balls, BBs, Rope, D-Cell Batteries and Flashbulbs. Note: Some of these parts are only available in Expert games. Home Alone Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Kevin's Crook-Catching Hints: * Items hidden in the snowmen change every time you go outside. Some snowmen don't have anything inside. * In Expert games, Harry and Marv go to the homes in a different order every time you play. * Boobytrap houses before the robbers enter to ambush them. (The crooks will only fall for the traps when you're in the house with them.) * Figure out what weapon parts you need, and gather them quickly. Assemble your weapons and have lots of ammo in reserve. * Experiment with the parts to figure out what weapons you can assemble. * In Beginner games, take a weapon apart when you run out of its ammunition. Then exit the Weapons Inventory screen. The next time you return to it, you'll be able to make a different weapon with the first weapon's Platform and Operator if you have the right Ammo. * Each Platform has a different arc and range. Find and use the best Platform for each weapon. * Operators and Ammo work together. For example, you need Balloons to hold the Glue, and you need the Wire to electrify the Hot Coals. * As soon as one weapon runs out of ammunition, switch to another one. Don't get caught unarmed! * Each weapon's damage only lasts for a short time, though some weapons are more powerful than others.

Home Alone 2 Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Making Weapons: Kevin is awesome at making weapons out of stuff he finds. The bottom of the screen shows the weapon Kevin is carrying, and the one he can build. Look for the flashing pieces to help him build each new weapon. Once you have found all the pieces to a weapon, you will automatically be able to use it. Until then, you will use the smaller weapon you're carrying. If you are captured by Marv or Harry while using your home-made weapon, they will destroy it. Once you break free of them, you'll go back to using the smaller weapon until you can build another one. Most levels have two weapons you can build. When you leave one weapon's area, you'll need to assemble a new weapon. For example, the first weapon you build in the Upper Airport is a slingshot. But later in the same level you'll find the pieces to the Ice Cream Cannon. Harry and Marv: Harry and Marv will do anything to stop Kevin. That's why Kevin must stop them first! It takes multiple hits to defeat the crooks. Their Health Bars decrease as your shots hit their target. When the bars disappear, Harry and Marv are done for! Flattening the "Wet Bandits" is easier when you use Kevin's home-made weapons. They are much more powerful than the smaller weapons. If you get captured by Marv or Harry, quickly press A, B or C to squirm free. You'll lose health as long as the bad guys have a hold on you. If you wait too long, Kevin will lose a life. So just stay away from these guys! As the levels progress, Marv and Harry get smarter and smarter. They learn more tricks, such as how to climb ladders, jump over holes and throw snowballs. Power-Ups: Boy oh boy! There's a lot of stuff out there for Kevin to grab up! You may not be able to get all of it. But try to get as much as you can. Presents are worth extra points. Milk Cartons, Water Bottles and Lunch Boxes add to Kevin's Health Bar. Pizza restores Kevin's Health Bar. Turtle Doves give Kevin an extra life. Find flashing weapon parts to make bigger and better weapons. Most levels have six different parts you can find, to make two different weapons. Home Alone 2 Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Kevin's Crook-Catching Hints: * Learn to slide by pressing the D-Pad down while running. It's a great way to get past enemies without taking damage. * Get all the presents you can, so you'll earn high scores. The higher your score, the more Continues you'll gain. (Continues let you resume a game after losing all your lives.) * Try to assemble your home-made weapon BEFORE you bump into Harry and Marv. Your smaller weapons probably won't be powerful enough to stop the crooks. * The more Turtle Doves you find, the farther you can go. Look carefully for them because most are well hidden. When you find one, you'll gain an extra life.

BONUS LEVELS * To access the bonus game the player must avoid all of the restart flags. * On the second world choose either Stats or Amanda. * Stat and Amanda are smaller characters, so they are able to use the short cut in the Ghost House. * The short cut is located between the floor and vertical wall that are above and to the right of the first dumb waiter that goes down. * On the mine section after avoiding rolling rock and before you fall down to the first restart flag, there is a short cut. * On the log to the left of the end of the track (above the restart point) there is a hidden platform, it can be identified as it looks like a crack in the wood. * Jump left onto a hidden platform. Look for a gold cup (which also earns you 5,000 points!) to help you find the platform. As the cup animates, part of the handle is barely visible. * Jump over the partially hidden cup, and from here you are a few short jumps away from the end of the level. * There are hidden bonuses on the Mine level, they can be found by carefully examining the far right hand wall. * The tell tale signs of the bonus rooms are a 16 by 16 block repeated about 5 times vertically. * For easier location the first one the player has fall down to the first restart point and walk right, jump onto the platform that is two levels above the lowest point in the level. * The player then has to jump right and land on top of the two vertical wooden bars and then into the wall on the right. Then the player should walk all the way to the right to pick up two bonuses. * Farther up the map still there is another bonus room, once you have found the previous two it is easily noticeable. * The biggest bonus that can be found is on the train. * To activate the bonus the player has to get all the way to the first carriage that is farthest right. * Then the player should stand on the small platform that is attached to the box between the carriages and the engine. * Once the player has stood on that a continue icon can be found on the last carriage (farthest left). * This is no ordinary continue though, it's worth ten lives, 5 continues and 1,000,000 points. Be warned, once the player picks up the continue icon, all of the enemies are regenerated.

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME COMBAT HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES The Immortal Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text The morning sun heats the jagged peaks as you follow the forgotten road down to the valley floor. The bleached ruins of great columned temples and towering citadels rise from the grassy plain like the bones of some colossal beast. Surely this was the city of ancient Erinoch, destroyed by dragon's fire over 1000 years ago. Mordamir spoke often of this city... Mordamir! Your teacher in the arts of wizardry! Surely he visited the fabled labyrinth of eternity buried beneath the ruins of ancient Erinoch! Perhaps this is where you will once again come face to face with your long lost master... The Immortal Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text Basic Functions: Button A: Cast fireballs. Button B: For special spells. Button C: Go to wizard's pack. D-Pad: Moves your character. In the Wizard's Pack: D-Pad: Moves gold corner. Button C: Selects an item. Combat: To Attack: Move the D-Pad right and left, or press the A button to jab. To Dodge: Hold down the C Button and move the D-Pad right and left. To fight effectively, dodge early, and then attack. Develop a rhythmic fighting style, swinging one direction, and then pressing the D-Pad the other direction before the first swing is complete to store up the next swing quickly. The Immortal Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text The Action Begins Immediately! Vitality: Vitality shows your current health and strength. You lose vitality whenever monsters hit you during combat. When vitality runs out, the wizard dies. In each level of the dungeon except the last one, you have three chances to complete the level. If the wizard dies three times, you have to start over at the beginning of the level. On the last level, you have only one chance, and if you die you must start over at the beginning. The labyrinth is home to many bloodthirsty creatures. Protect yourself by casting fireballs. To cast one, select Fireballs in your pack and then press A when you return to the dungeon. You always have a Wizard's Pack to carry important items. To look at the items in your Wizard's Pack, press C. You can see up to five items at a time, but you can carry more. To see other items, D-Pad DOWN and RIGHT to select OTHER and press any button. Some items can harm you, but usually only if you use them at the wrong time or in the wrong place. Always search rooms thoroughly and don't leave any items behind! Using an Item From Your Wizard's Pack: To use an item, D-Pad the gold triangle to an item you want to use, the press C. Most items can only be used once, then they're gone--so be careful where you use them! To exit your pack without selecting anything, position the cursor over your gold and press C. Don't worry--you can't drop your gold. Sometimes you need to set certain items down to use them. For example, you may use certain gems by setting them on the ground. But watch out! If you set an item down in the wrong place, make sure you pick it back up before you leave! Pausing the Game: If you need to pause the game, press C to bring up your Wizard's Pack. When you're ready to go back to the action, press C. You can't pause the game during combat! Beware of Pit Traps! Don't panic when the floor unexpectedly vanishes beneath your feet. There's always a slim chance of getting out. To get out of a pit trap, hang for a second, then D-Pad UP three times to swing forward. Don't fall to your doom! Climbing Up and Down Ladders: To get up or down a ladder, just move the wizard up to it--he'll automatically climb or descend. Be careful going down ladders! Move the wizard only to the side of the opening with the ladder on it or he'll fall. Sleep on the Straw: Piles of straw provide comfortable, SAFE places to rest. To sleep, move onto the straw and just stand there. After a moment, you'll lie down and go to sleep. Pay close attention to your dreams!! Using a Certificate: Whenever you complete a level, you get a certificate. Write down your certificates and keep them in a safe place! If you quit playing, you'll need the certificate later so you can start on the level in which you left off. After you write down the password, just press Start to continue to the next level. Information About Levels: Some items only work on a particular level. Before you descend to the next level, the magic of the labyrinth will remove any items you don't need from your Wizard's Pack. To restart the level, just press Start when you're asked for a certificate. There's no need to type anything. To restart a different level, enter your certificate, D-Pad Up or Down to select a letter or number. D-Pad Right to enter a letter, Left to delete it. Once you've correctly entered your certificate, press Start to begin playing. The Immortal Combat Use Up/Down to scroll text Combat: When a monster attacks, you must fight until one of you wins. Reduce the monster's Vitality to zero or you'll lose a life! Press Button A to jab. Hold the D-Pad left for a forehand slash. Hold the D-Pad right for a backhand slash. Never use just one kind of attack. Use combinations--jab, backhand slash, jab, forehand slash--and defeat the creatures of the dungeon. How to Duck: You can duck your opponent's blows. The trick is to lean away from the monster's swing so you don't take damage. To duck right, hold the D-Pad right and press Button C. To duck left, hold the D-Pad left and press Button C. The more your opponent swings at you, the faster he gets tired and the more his Fatigue goes up. But ducking doesn't tire you out. A good strategy is to duck your opponent's swings and let his fatigue rise. Wait until he's tired before you attack. As your Fatigue goes up, you slow down. It takes you longer to swing when you're tired of giving your opponent more chances to hit you. Ducking (not attacking) makes your fatigue go down. The Immortal Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Journey Through Level 1: You've just entered the labyrinth. You're standing in the antechamber of the first level. You see a skull and a candle. Go explore, and approach the skull and candle. An image of Mordamir appears and speaks to you. Who is Dunric? Maybe Mordamir mentions him in the Codex of the Serpent (which will be listed after the Level 1 hints). Read every message you come across. Messages give you important clues that help you solve the mysteries of The Immortal. It's important that you read every message that appears. Press C to speed up the text. To go through the door, just move up to it. You automatically open the door and pass through. This door is unlocked, but other doors in the game will be locked. If a door is locked, a message appears telling you whether you have the key or not. Sometimes you'll have to find a certain key before you can open a door. If you do have the key, the door will open automatically without your having to specifically use the key. Search the slain fighter that is lying in the lower right part of the room. Go over and see what useful items he may have dropped. Search the fighter's body for possessions. D-Pad Right to highlight YES, then press Button C. You can search for items just by moving the wizard to the area you want to search. If there is anything of interest in the area, a message appears telling you what it is. Take Dunric's ring and a fireball spell from the fighter's hand. D-Pad Right to highlight YES, then press Button C. There's a scuffle going on in the left part of the room. A goblin is attacking a human! Go help him. The goblin attacks! Defeat the goblin, then go talk to the warrior just by moving up to him. He'll give you a key that opens the chest nearby. If you want to make the text scroll faster, hold down Button C, but don't do this the first time you read a message! Go to the chest in the middle of the room. The warrior gave you a key so you'll have no problem with the lock. Open the chest and take all the items in it. Exit through the upper door. Then, fight the goblin that is guarding some treasure. He won't attack unless you come too close. You need the items on his person, so approach and get him to attack. Search the goblin and you'll find a key and a note on the guard's body warning you about shades. Read the note and take the key. There's also a pile of gold just behind him. There's a safe path through part of this room. The last stretch takes some artful dodging to avoid the poison arrows. Move along the upper left wall then down the left side to get to the other door. Remember how to get out of a pit trap? Don't panic! Hang for a moment, then D-Pad UP three times to swing forward, and then up and out. The pit traps are the least of your problems in this dark room. There are invisible shades that prey on wizards. What you need now is some light so you can see the shades. Use a fireball to light the torch. Turn right and shoot a fireball at the angled corner wall to light the torches. Now you can see the shadows of the shades. Stay clear! They're deadly! Walk along the upper wall and pick up the charm. Follow the wall to the left side of the room and pick up the Amulet. Pick it up then make your escape through the lower door. Remember there are pit traps! Sleep on the straw, then walk to the small beam of sunlight peeking through the dungeon wall. Once every 1000 years, the beam of light falls on the jewel set in the stone floor, triggering a trap door that leads to the lower levels. Right now, you'd have to wait 777 years for the light to activate the trap door. Fortunately you have something to reflect the light onto the jewel triggering the door open! Move the wizard to the beam of light. Press Button C to bring up your inventory and select the amulet. Select YES. Don't read the Runes. This is not a good idea, and you'll find out why if you ever do... Now climb down the ladder into Level two! Good luck, you're on your own now. Mordamir awaits you! Room 1: Get items from slain fighter's body. Room 2: Help out the warrior. Defeat the goblins then talk to him. Get items and treasure from the chest. Room 3: Slay the goblin and search for valuables. Room 4: Avoid poison arrow traps! Room 5: Don't fall into a pit trap. Room 6: Light the torch with a fireball. Pick up the charm and the amulet, but keep away from pit traps and shades! Room 7: Hold the amulet up to the light, but don't read the Runes! General tip: It's best to move around slowly so that you don't encounter any surprise attacks. Also, try to explore every corner possible. The Codex of the Serpent Level 1 I, Mordamir, wizard of the Crimson Keep, wrote these notes to explain the mysteries of this dark labyrinth. Today I go forth to explore the dragon's lair. I hope my wits are keen enough to escape her cunning again! Thus I leave these words for any who come after me. May they keep you from an untimely end in this forsaken place! Dunric is my faithful student in the art of wizardry--he will be the first to come looking for me. He's often accompanied by Erek, a fighter. Ulindor is my servant and bodyguard. In the upper levels there exists a tribe of primitive creatures known as goblins. They are hostile to strangers, but seem to possess reason, intelligence, and some ingenuity with tools. This tribe is the Druul. Their king is Gresh the Wise. The goblins are currently at war with a more hostile and powerful tribe of creatures known as trolls. Both sides desperately seek control over the upper levels of the dungeon. Perhaps a show of force would convince one of them that wizards make better friends than foes... A safe path past the arrows is along the sides of the wall. I got fairly far before I set off the trap. In the dark room that follows are deadly creatures invisible to the eye. Only their shadows can be seen in the light. Keep a torch lit and watch their movements carefully. They move quickly! Walk gingerly. There are pit traps in this room as well... Deep in immortal dragon's lair once in one millennium the portal opens to the staircase when a single gem greets the sun. The mechanism is tripped every thousand years by light. Something shiny... Level 2: After two days of bitter combat, Arinar, the Elven Lord, escaped the enemy. But through his veins ran a fatal poison, drawn from the keen edge of the shadowlord's blade. Arinar fled over the high mountains to the ruined city of Ernioch, where he entered the labyrinth in search of the fabled water, said by many to heal even the deepest wounds. Deep in the chilly caverns of the forgotten labyrinth, the Elven Lord searched desperately for the fountain, slaying the evil minions that dwell in that dark place with Solundul, a sword of strength. But on the second day, foul and slimy creatures caught Arinar off guard and stripped the flesh from his body. To this day his bones and sword lay there still... Legends have told of wayfarers being attacked by will o' the wisps. I reckoned such stories were the products of childish imaginations, but now I have seen these sparking harbingers of death with my very eyes. I know little of their nature... Are they intelligent? Perhaps they are disembodied spirits of some sort, or maybe creatures of the elements. In any case, they are extremely dangerous--they despise the living and eagerly devour mortal flesh. Maybe I can devise a spell to bring them under my control... The goblins sometimes use spores as a kind of weapon. When planted in soft dirt, these spores produce mushrooms that grow to waist height in a matter of seconds. The full-grown mushrooms immediately fire more spores in a 30-foot radius. The spores are deadly to humans, goblins, and trolls. The goblins typically carry them in sacks to protect themselves. They can be recognized by their strong sickening smell. Years ago, when sorcerer's towers stretched toward the heavens and the halls of wizardry protected the knowledge of the spheres, the city of Erinoch had need of locksmiths. The most cunning locksmith, I recall, was a dwarf by the name of Lindl. His locks never involved anything as boring as a simple lock and key. Lindl's mechanisms required the unusual--finely crafted gems, beams of light, paces around an object... Lindl prospered while serving the wizard's of Erinoch. But when the dragon came (over 1000 years ago), his house was destroyed and his family perished in the flames. Lindl went quite mad after seeing the beast devastate his dreams, and he cursed the wizards who unleashed the dragon's wrath. He vowed to seal off the labyrinth forever so that men would no longer seek the water... The dust of complaisance can be thrown to make an irritable old fool your friend. The gems must be dropped in the holes. Gresh the Wise, King of the Goblins, knows the combination. One must defeat him before he'll speak. Level 3: Only the fierce might of an angry dragon could split the earth and form this deep chasm. The crack cannot be crossed by rope--the brisk winds rising from the dragon's lair make it too dangerous! The only way across is a magic gate-- a teleport mechanism--hidden in one of the rooms below. The shaft of light on the other side is where the magic gate leads. The trolls call themselves the Shindrak. They rule much of the lower levels. For the most part, they are stupid and quick-tempered--something to take advantage of. A troll will throw his ritual knife only when he wants to challenge another troll to combat. It's good to throw the ritual knife in a room with two trolls. Proteus, a God of the Sea, was a master shape-changer who could travel disguised as fire and wild boars. A ring was forged by Proteus when the earth was young. It allows the wearer to take on the form of a goblin. Beware! The wearer must keep his distance from others or the illusion will be dispelled--and some are too wise to believe it's charms! One whiff of a troll bomb and the trolls are paralyzed. Red gems look best in purple light. Level 4: When Dunric interfered with the troll's battle against the goblins, they kidnapped his daughter, Ana, and dragged her into the labyrinth. As she possesses some of her father's skill in sorcery, she had no trouble escaping the trolls. But on her way out, she lost a special ring given to her by her father. Some rings are never worn on the body. Level 5: Many mice but fewer men can pass through a crack in the wall. A merchant might sell you the means... The potion transforms and poisons you at the same time. You benefit from its power to shrink you, but you must find water and drink it soon afterward or you'll never live past the hour. The higher the worm sensor's pitch, the greater the danger. The weight of one opens the way. Set down food and a flying lizard could hold the door. Level 6: When she rears up, she's ready to web. Move back! She's most vulnerable when all four legs are on the ground. Now is not the time to imbibe spirits. Level 7: The goblin's crave the water as much as men, but a treacherous water creature guards the way! If the monster were distracted long enough, the goblins could open the sluice and wash it way into the deep underground sea. Only a wizard adept at sailing stands a chance of distracting the monster and making his escape. This is the final step before entering the dragon's lair. Do whatever you must to help the goblin's open the way. Your journey is almost complete--if fortune finds us, we will stand together against the dragon.

These enable you to transform at will from Hulk to Bruce Banner without losing energy, so that you can explore areas not accessible to Hulk.

Make the selection you want. 5. Press Start. The Play Selection screen appears. The Play Selection Screen From the Play Selection screen, choose the court type you want, the player you want to be, whether you serve or receive, and the player control mode you want: Automatic, or Manual. The serve or receive option is available only when one Controller is plugged in for a singles match, or three or fewer controllers for a doubles match, and only in EXHIBITION mode. * To change your position(server or receiver), press the D-Pad in any direction. In a singles match, when two controllers are plugged in, Player 1 always serves first. If you have three controllers plugged in and this is a Doubles match, press the D-Pad in any direction to choose your team matchups. This only applies in EXHIBITION mode. Court Surfaces Four different surface types are available: Clay, Hard Court, Indoor, and Grass. CLAY: The slowest surface, however the ball bounces higher.(Solid orange color). HARD COURT: Here, the ball speed and bounce are even and more predictable than on clay or grass. Because of this, you might want to start on Hard Court, and then move on to the other surfaces. INDOOR: Similar to Hard Court, often Indoor surfaces are carpet, making ball speed and bounce even and predictable(as well as fast!). GRASS: The fastest surface; the ball skips more, thus making it faster, more erratic, and keeping it low.(Solid green color). * To toggle through the different court types, press A. The Pros on the Tour There are thirty-two pros from whom to select, and we've managed to capture their strengths and weaknesses for this game. * To change the pro you use, press C. Control Modes Choose between Automatic and Manual modes. In Automatic mode, the Genesis controls your player's footwork, you just need to concentrate on hitting the ball. In Manual mode, you control every aspect of your player's movement. * To change the control mode, press B to toggle between Automatic and Manual. * To exit the Play Selection screen and go to the court, press Start. HITTING THE BALL The most basic skill you'll need to master is how to hit the ball. Once you learn the different strokes, how to use them and when becomes more apparent with practice. IMG International Tour Tennis lets you tailor your shot type and placement depending upon the context of your shot. For example, when serving, the controls respond in a different way from when you are volleying from inside the service line. Your player's character also comes into play when calculating shot placement. VOLLEYING Volleying takes place from within the service line, and entails hitting the ball before it touches the ground. When you volley, the A, B, and C buttons respond to the change in context. Rather than hitting long, deep groundstrokes, you'll be hitting short, well-placed shots. 1. Press A to hit drop shots. 2. Press B for a softer, touch volley. When the ball is coming in high, you return with overhead. 3. Press C for a harder, deeper, more aggressive volley stroke. Again, when appropriate, you return a shot with an overhead. SHOT PLACEMENT To place your shot, press the D-Pad Left/Right after pressing one of the shot buttons. This guides your ball in the same direction. If you don't touch the D-Pad while hitting the ball, your player attempts to hit the center of the court. NOTE: How well your player places his shots depends upon his own characteristics. If he is great from the baseline, this factor influences his ability when making shots from the net: he may not be as reliable when volleying. THE STRATEGY OPTION MENU Between points you can access the Strategy Option menu. The options available from the Strategy Option menu are: RETURN TO GAME, SCOREBOARD, INSTANT REPLAY, STRATEGY, and ARGUE CALL. To Select Options from the Strategy Option Menu: 1. Between serves, press Start. the Strategy Option menu appears. 2. D-Pad left/right to cycle through the different options. 3. Press A, B, or C to select an option. 4. Press Start to exit the Strategy Option menu and return to the game, or select RETURN TO GAME, and press A, B, or C. Instant Replay Select this option to play a tape of the last point played. * To rewind the tape, hold A. * To run the tape frame by frame, tap B. * To run the tape at normal speed, press C. * To change the angle or view of the tape, press the D-Pad in any direction. Strategy Each player already possesses certain characteristics. He may be a big server who rushes the net, or he may like to lay back and punish his opponents with relentless groundstrokes. However, you can modify your player's strategy during a game if you think it may be effective. Keep in mind, however, playing a net game with a baseline player will affect his game-he won't be as reliable in his shot placement. The three strategies to choose from are: Baseline, All Court, and Rush Net. * To toggle through the three strategy types, press A-C. NOTE: This applies to players in Automatic mode, or those controlled by the Genesis. If you are in Manual mode, you determine all aspects of your player's movements, and can change your strategy at will. Argue A Call! This option only appears when you've lost a point. If you argue when it's appropriate, i.e., when a questionable call has been made, your player receives an energy boost. If you argue at an inappropriate time, your player becomes erratic for a while. IMG International Tennis Tournaments Use Up/Down to scroll text START NEW TOURNAMENT In this play mode, you can play one single tournament, rather than follow the whole tour in the predetermined sequence of locales. You can have up to eight players in a singles tournament, and up to 4 teams of doubles. A preliminary round is followed by quarterfinals, semifinals, and then the final. Select your players from the USER RECORDS, or the PLAYER ROSTER. To play a Tournament: 1. From the Game Set Up screen, select START NEW TOURNAMENT as your play mode. Make the selections you want from the other options on the Game Set Up screen(MATCH LENGTH, SINGLES, etc.), and press any button. The Tournament Selection screen appears. 2. Press the D-Pad left/right to cycle through the different tournament locations. The court surface type appears next to the picture of the tournament location. 3. Once you've made your choice, press any button. Depending upon whether you've chosen USER RECORDS, or MAKE PLAYER ROSTER, the corresponding selection screen appears. Choose your players and press Start. The Player Ranking screen appears. 4. D-Pad up/down to view all the pros on the screen. They're listed according to rank, and points and prize money earned are also displayed. Press Start to exit this screen. The Tournament Match tree appears. 5. D-Pad left/right to view all the matches. Press any button to continue. The Play Selection screen appears. 6. Unlike EXHIBITION mode, you can't change your player or the surface type here.

Press B to erase a team. Choose up to four teams of doubles. 6. Press Start to confirm your teams and move to the Player Ranking screen. Continue as you would in a singles Tournament. HITTING THE ROAD Going on the Tour can be a grueling endurance test. It can leave your nerves strung as tightly as racket strings, or it can fill you with a sense of accomplishment like nothing else in the world. As you battle through the semifinals in burning Sydney, or enter center court on the well-manicured lawns of the London Lawn Tennis Open, you'll experience every type and level of tennis available. Clay, grass, hard, and indoor courts all require a different style of play, and reward a different type of player. Of course, the trick is performing well on all surfaces. If you manage to finish the tour among the top 8 players(based on the points you've accumulated), you are invited to the prestigious Coto de Caza for the EA Tour Championships. A win here ensures your place as the champion of the world. * To play on the Tour, select START NEW TOUR from the Game Set Up screen. All the steps are the same as playing a Tournament, except you don't select a tournament to play. You follow the prescribed tournaments on the Tour. The tournaments, in order, are as follows: Tournaments on the Tour The Sydney Championships The Melbourne Open The Philadelphia Indoor The Lipton Championships The Monte Carlo Open Internazionali Di Roma The Paris Open The Manchester Classic The London Lawn Tennis Open The Stockholm Open The Toronto Champions Cup Cincinnati Open The U.S. Pro Championships The New York Open The Tokyo Indoor Challenge The Frankfurter Turnier EA Tour Championships CONTINUE TOURNAMENT/TOUR Select these play modes to continue a Tour or Tournament already in progress. The last Tournament or Tour you played is the one that resumes when you select these modes. You'll notice that the other options cannot be modified when you continue a Tour or Tournament-they remain as they were when you first selected them.

Exclusive) Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text Rugby has often been described as "a game for animals, played by gentlemen", although whoever coined this phrase had obviously never seen England's hooker Brian Moore in the thick of the action. Although it may seem a rather unusual sport to outsiders--for example, in which other game would you see a player applauded for kicking the ball off the field? Rugby has built up a huge following in the two centuries which it has been played, and now rivals soccer as the most popular team sport in the world. Rugby is played by two teams of 15 players apiece, with each team divided into two separate sections: the forwards and the backs. Unlike most other sports, rugby is unique in that it's probably the only game in the world where the forwards do the lion's share of defending and the backs are supposed to attack. Int'l Rugby (S.C. Exclusive) Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text In possession of ball: D-Pad: Moves player in relevant direction. Button A: Pass to left of pitch. Button B: Aim kick, then B again to kick ball (A or C to cancel). Button C: Pass to right of pitch. Not in possession of ball: D-Pad: Moves player in relevant direction. Button A: Tackle. Button B: Not used. Button C: Change control of player nearest the ball. Quick Start: To jump right into the action, choose the "Quick Start" facility from the main options screen (the rugby player icon situated at top center). This places either one or two players directly into an international match. Choosing a Team Before double clicking on the "Quick Start" icon, move to the two "Team Crest" icons in the bottom corners of the main options screen. The crest on the left represents the home player (or player one in two player mode), while the crest on the right represents the away team (either the computer or the second human player). When the right hand crest is shaded this indicates that the program is in one player mode. Click on the options icon showing a Rugby ball over a question mark to change to two player. Clicking repeatedly on these icons cycles through the 16 different teams included in International Rugby Challenge Choose the two that you would like to complete in your "Quick Start" game, then simply click on the rugby player icon at the top center of the screen. Taking Control In "Quick Start" mode, International Rugby Challenge makes use of a default set of game parameters, including length of half, number of players in a line-out and so on. All you have to do is concentrate on the task of getting the ball over the line for that all-important try. Int'l Rugby (S.C. Exclusive) Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text In-Game Controls Controlling Play: Whether your side is attacking or defending, the player under your direct control is denoted by the arrow icon which appears above or below him. To move this player in any direction, simply push the chosen controller in the preferred direction. (NOTE: the speed at which the player moves depends entirely on whether he's a fleet-footed back, or one of the heavier forwards.) The computer will always automatically allow you to take control of the player nearest to the action. The possession indicator- a "P" by your team's crest-flashes when your player is actually in control of the ball. Passing: To pass to another player on the left hand side of the screen press Button A so that a "sight" appears over the player to be passed to. Releasing Button A will result in the pass being completed. Follow the same process for passing to the right replacing Button A with Button C. Kicking: To kick the ball, press and hold Button B. You will notice a small arrow appear next to your player. You can now move the arrow to the left or right to control the direction of the kick. By moving the arrow away from your player you can increase the power of the kick. Press B again to kick the ball (A or C cancels). Tackling: When defending, pressing Button C will change your control to the player nearest the ball. Pressing Button A should result in a bone-crunching tackle, providing your timing is correct. Rucks, Mauls, and Scrums When open play breaks down or the ball becomes free, both teams will attempt to win it back, either when it's on the floor (this is known as a "ruck") or when it's in motion (a "maul"). If neither team manages to regain control of the ball, the referee will award a scrum. Because of the situation of the two hookers in the scrum, it is very rare that any rugby team wins possession of the ball "against the head". This term refers to the time when the opposing team has the "put-in". However, this does not mean that possession is automatically won on your own "put-in." When a scrum is awarded in your favor, and the players have taken their positions, a meter appears on screen. This "Ball Direction Meter" (BDM) continues to appear throughout the game for scrums, line-outs and place kicks. When the BDM appears, press Button A once to send the power meter moving to the right (from position "a") towards the full power marker. Press Button A when the bar reaches maximum (position "b") and another bar will immediately spring from Point A moving leftwards into the "curve indicator" (towards position "c"). A final press of Button A stops this bar and determines the ball's path into the scrum. Stopping the two power meters at as close to full power as possible and within the brackets (position "d") will ensure that you retain possession of the ball. Tap Button A as quickly as possible to gain or retain possession and push the scrum forward towards the opposition's goal line. Pressing Button B at this point releases the ball into the scrum half's hands and returns the game to open play. If the player in possession of the ball fails to play it back to this back line quickly enough (the exact length of time allowed in this situation is decided at the referee's discretion), a penalty is awarded to the opposition. Line-outs: When the ball crosses either sideline to leave the field of play, a "line-out" is awarded against the team whose player last touched it. The length of the line-out can be varied, but is initially set at four players apiece. Once again, the BDM is used to determine which side wins possession from the line-out. The BDM works in a similar fashion to that employed for the Scrum. However, in this case, the power meter (to the right) determines which player in the line-out the ball is aimed at. For example, minimum power will send the ball to the player at the front of the line-out, while maximum will send the ball the full length towards the player at the rear. To retain possession, the curve indicator must be stopped between the two marker lines on either side of point "d" (the better the opposition, the closer these two lines will be). Once again, when possession has been gained, the ball should be passed back to the scrum half for open play to resume (although the forwards can choose to carry the ball for themselves if you so desire). Place-kicking When a penalty is awarded or a try scored, the player has a chance to attempt to kick the ball between the posts. This will either gain an extra three points (in the case of a penalty) or "convert" the score of five points to seven. To successfully execute a place kick, the BDM is once again employed. The kick's power and height is determined in the usual way, by stopping the power bar before it reaches point "b" (the further the posts, the more power should be employed). Point "d" indicates the correct position to stop the curve indicator to send the ball between the posts. Once again, the proximity of the two markers on either side of this point is determined by the kicker's distance from the posts and his relative skill. NOTE: You are able to control the direction of the ball at kick off by using the D-Pad in conjunction with the BDM. Int'l Rugby (S.C.

Then Izzy has to blaze out of the Torch World into the human world to light the Flame. But Whoa! Escape from the Torch World is no easy task. The realm of the Torch is loaded with crabby creatures, molten meanies and dirty birds bent on stopping Izzy. These are tough enemies that Izzy must defeat with Spin Jumps and Morph Attacks. Three Medallions protect Izzy's health in battle. When Izzy takes damage, he loses the Medallions and his face gets pushed out of shape in the Status Screen. Now he has to find three more to repair his health pronto. If Izzy takes a hit and doesn't have Medallions, he is defeated.

Each contender has his own strengths, depending on his height, weight, and fighting style. The more you know about your opponent and his moves, the better chance you'll have to beat him. And the Winner is... The timer starts counting down as soon as the fight begins. The referee controls the game, telling you when to fight or break, and counting out a boxer when he's down. When the timer reaches 0, the round ends. In a moment, the next round begins. * A KO (knockout) occurs when a fighter is knocked down and stays down on the canvas for the entire ten count. * A TKO (technical knockout) occurs when a fighter is knocked down three times in the same round. * If the match ends without a KO or TKO, the winner is by decision, based on points and boxing technique. You must outlast all four challengers to win the World Heavyweight title. Once you win, you're obliged to defend your title in rematch challenges. If you succeed, the toughest battle of your life awaits! Power Punches: Constant training will win you the title. Practice different combinations of your punch buttons (Buttons A and B, plus the D Button) to learn the most powerful and effective moves. Keep an eye on the damage meters, both yours and your opponent's. When your strength is low, you're vulnerable. Back off to let your meter recover. When your opponent's strength is low, move in for the knockout punch! Reversal Uppercut: See if you can learn this move. Down your opponent twice, without letting him down you. When he gets up the second time, immediately deliver an uppercut. This should knock him out regardless of his remaining strength on the damage meter. James "Buster" Douglas Knockout Boxing Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Use strategy. Remeber to think defensively, not just offensively. Blocking and ducking are just as important as a punch and uppercut. * Detroit Kidd is in the Megadrive version of the game. He was replaced with Buster Douglas in our version. * To get your opponents against the ropes, you can charge them, while throwing a variety of punches. This will cause most of the enemies to "run" from you back to the ropes. When you have your opponent against the ropes, try using the Power punches described above. If you hit them, they will drop extremely fast, sometimes as fast as one or two punches (in easy and normal modes)! Power Punches: The following punches are hard to do, but if you connect, they will be lethal towards the enemy (except in Hard mode (then, it takes more to knock enemies down): 1. Press both buttons A and B at the same time. 2. Press Down, and buttons A and B. 3. Press Up and buttons A and B. Iron Head: Iron Head is easier to beat on points, than to knock out. Try using the Power punches when you can. If you throw a punch, and he goes back to the ropes, keep throwing power punches, sometimes he can't defend against them! In general, a variety of punches works well against him. He will hit you no matter what you do, so it's best to just go after him.

Klax Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text HOW TO COMPLETE A WAVE There are 5 different types of Waves in KLAX. Keep in mind that a KLAX is three or more tiles of the same color in a row. The tiles can be diagonal, horizontal, or vertical. * "You must get XX (a number based on your current wave) KLAXs." For this, you should get the number of KLAXs specified. * "You must get XX diagonals." Only diagonal KLAXs count towards finishing the Wave. You can still get other types of KLAXs, though (and you might need them to survive!). * "You must catch XX tiles." That many tiles must be caught on the paddle to finish the Wave. * "You must get XXXX points." You need to get this many points to finish the Wave. Different types of KLAXs will earn you varying points. * "You must get XX horizontals." Only horizontal KLAXs count towards finishing the Wave. You can still get all types of KLAXs, though. Klax Scoring in Klax Use Up/Down to scroll text BASIC EXAMPLES OF A KLAX 3 Tiles=1 Klax 4 Tiles=2 Klaxs 5 Tiles=3 Klaxs * 1 vertical Klax is worth 50 points. * 2 vertical Klaxs (4 tiles of the same color) are worth 10,000 points. * 3 vertical Klaxs are worth 15,000 points. * 1 horizontal Klax is worth 1,000 points. * 2 horizontal Klaxs are worth 5,000 points. * 3 horizontal Klaxs are worth 10,000 points. * 1 diagonal Klax is worth 5,000 points. * 2 diagonal Klaxs are worth 10,000 points. * 3 diagonal Klaxs are worth 20,000 points. For bonus points, match up tiles that will, in turn, match up other tiles. There are many other shapes that will earn you points, some of them over 50,000 points!! Try experimenting with different formations, especially with the Wild Tile. Good luck!

Eons ago, evil King Nole, on the verge of being dethroned, hid a vast treasure stolen from his subjects. Then he vanished! Now Landstalker ventures to this ancient realm search of the legendary fortune and the power to re-unite a divided kingdom. Intricate logic puzzles and mazes, humorous dialog and ironic situations, and a unique graphic look make this game unforgettable!

If you want Nigel to change equipment, press Button A. A bracket will appear in the Item window. Use the D-Button to move the bracket over the item you want to equip, and press Button A again. Nigel is now equipped with the selected item. Broadsword: This is Nigel's standard weapon, forged especially for him. It's a reliable blade, but not very powerful. Magic Sword: When fully charged, this sword burns whatever enemy it touches. When it is not carrying a full charge, it can be used like a regular sword. Other magical swords include the Sword of Ice, the Thunder Sword and the Gaia Sword. Leather Breastplate: This standard armor is light and flexible, but doesn't offer much protection against attack. Special Armor (Steel, Chrome, Shell and Hyper): This offers more protection than the leather armor. Boots: Nigel comes to Mercator wearing a pair of standard leather boots. During his journey, he may find special boots that restore hit points as he walks, or helps him get through rough terrain (such as fire pits, spiked floors or ice). One size fits all. Magic Rings: These rings come in handy during Nigel's adventures: * Saturn Stone: Doubles the rate at which an equipped magic sword recharges. * Venus Stone: Triples the rate at which an equipped magic sword recharges. * Mars Stone: Increases Nigel's resistance to poisons. * Moon Stone: Increases Nigel's resistance to mind-altering spells. Landstalker: Treasures of King Nole Item Descriptions Use Up/Down to scroll text Items consist of medicine, keys and magic talismans. In the Inventory screen, if a number to the left of the item appears in black and white, and/or has a "x0" next to it, Nigel no longer possesses that item. To use an item, (from the Inventory screen) press the D-Button left until the arrow points to Use in the message window at the bottom of the screen, then press Button A. A bracket will appear in the Item window. Use the D-Button to move the bracket over the item you want to use, and press Button A.

ITEMS: * Life Stock: This item increases the total number of hit points Nigel has available. * EkeEke: This special plant restores either 11 hit points or half of Nigel's hit points, whichever is greater. If Nigel is knocked unconscious and has a supply of EkeEke, Friday can use the EkeEke to revive him. * Detox Grass: Counteracts poison. * AntiParalyze: Cancels paralysis spells. * Restoration: Cures Nigel of both paralysis and poisoning. * Mind Repair: Cancels hallucination spells. * Dahl: This completely restores all of Nigel's hit points, but can only be administered by Nigel himself. * Golden Statue: When activated, this talisman keeps Nigel's magical sword fully recharged for a short period of time. * Gaia Statue: When activated, this statue causes an earthquake that damages all enemies in the same room/field as Nigel. The closer an enemy is to Nigel, the more damage it suffers. The more total hit points Nigel has, the more powerful the statue's attack.

The lid will pop open to reveal your loot. To take the treasure, press Button A again. NOTE: If Nigel already possesses nine of the items he finds, the chest will close with the item still in it. Once Nigel uses one of those items, he can return to pick up the treasure later. PICKING UP AND CARRYING ITEMS: There will be areas that are too high to reach by jumping.

When you are finished reading the sign, press Button A to resume play. Follow the same procedure to hold conversations with people. If you are asked a question, you'll see a choice of answers at the bottom of the window. Use the D-Button to select your answer and press Button A.

Landstalker: Treasures of King Nole Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Make sure you are fully supplied with EkeEke and medicines before going into a field or dungeon. You can stock up on extra EkeEke or other supplies by repeatedly leaving and reentering the inn or shop. Talk to everyone and read every sign. You'll pick up valuable clues on how to proceed with your game. Sometimes you can stay clear of traps and avoid drawing unnecessary attention to yourself by walking close to the walls instead of straight through a room. Although a direct attack works on many monsters, you will be damaged in battle. Try dodging and attacking at an angle. Lead the monsters on a merry chase. Soon you'll find a fighting method that's best for you. Search for what you can't see. Sometimes valuable items, secret paths, or switches are concealed beneath buildings or obstacles, or disguised by foliage. Explore behind things, and feel along walls. Be aware (especially in field or in dungeon areas) that enemies can be lurking in concealment as well! Watch the opening scenes closely for hints on how to get past obstacles. Save your game frequently-- especially after completing a difficult task. No puzzle is impossible, but some are quite hard. Keep on trying! Landstalker is one gigantic labyrinth after another. If you're stuck, make a MAP. There may be rooms that have been forgotten and ignored. It's probably in these rooms where a solution may be. Landstalker: Treasures of King Nole Troubleshooting Use Up/Down to scroll text YOU COME ACROSS A LOCKED DOOR: 1. Trigger the switch. Some doors can only be opened by triggering a switch in an adjacent room. 2. Find the key. A key might be hidden in one of the connecting rooms. 3. Is it a magic lock? Some magic items open doors. Check your inventory. 4. Are you locked inside a room? If you find yourself trapped inside a room, here are 2 ways to spring the locks: a) Defeat all the monsters in the room. In some rooms, the locked doors will automatically disappear. b) Look for special devices. Are there any buttons in the floor that can be pressed? Are there any secret doorways hidden in the walls? SWITCHES WON'T STAY SWITCHED: You stand on top of a switch and a lock or trap disappears. You step off the switch to take advantage of the situation...and you're right back where you started. 1. How long does the switch stay on? Can you race past the trap in time? 2. Is there something--or someone--in the room that you can use to weigh down the switch? THE PATH IS BLOCKED: A bridge out? A pathway cluttered with debris? You need to pick up more information. Go back to the last village you visited and ask around. A solution will present itself. Help everyone in need, no matter how suspicious of them you are-- they might return the favor... YOU CAN'T REACH A HIGH PLACE: Are there items (such as crates or vases) you can use to stack and climb on? 1. Feel around. There might be some sort of hidden support or staircase you can climb on. 2. Can you drop down onto your destination from a higher level. YOU KEEP MISSING A PLATFORM: Landstalker introduces a new form of perspective to the role-playing game. Because of the new angle and the three-dimensional effects, it has become much harder to gauge where to jump. If a platform is moving, observe it carefully from a safe place. Plan all of your moves in advance. And keep trying! YOU'VE BEEN POISONED: If little bubbles appear over Nigel's head and the screen starts flashing, he's just been poisoned! Every time the screen flashes, Nigel loses one hit point until he loses consciousness. 1. If you have an antidote (such as Detox Grass or Restoration Potion) in your inventory, use it immediately to save the rest of your hit points. 2. Are you near a church? A priest can help heal you ... for a price. 3. The effects of the poisoning will eventually wear off, if Nigel has enough hit points to "walk it off." YOU'VE BEEN PARALYZED: If you have a restorative (such as AntiParalyze or Restoration Potion) in your inventory, use it immediately. YOU'VE BEEN MUDDLED: If little birds appear and start flying around Nigel's head, he's been muddled. Try one of the following to clear his head: 1. If you have a restorative (such as Mind Repair or Restoration Potion) in your inventory, use it immediately. 2. Head for the nearest church. A priest might be able to help you. YOU'VE BEEN CURSED: If little gray Grim Reapers appear and start circling around Nigel's head, he's been cursed. Use one of the following to break the spell: 1. If you have a Restoration Potion in your inventory, use it immediately. 2. Hurry to the nearest church. A priest might be able to help you.

GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Lethal Enforcers Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text Listen up! There is a reason you took this job, right? You think you can make a difference in this city. You want to serve and protect, right? Well, I've heard it all before-from the bleeding hearts who toss around the term reform like a platter of biscuits to the self-proclaimed vigilantes who think violence fights violence. Let me tell you something, I've learned in my years on the force that most criminals are just looking for a free ride. They don't know the boundaries, so they don't realize they've crossed the line. But there is a small percentage out there who know the rules and just don't respect 'em. They think the rewards are greater than the risks. They have no fear of consequences--if they get caught they'll just end up back on the streets in no time. Well, that doesn't wash on my turf. If you come in here waving guns, you're going to pay the price for crossing the line. Innocent people are the ones with power here, not the thugs with guns. Lately there has been a lot of action with the so-called organized criminals. I'm not going to allow that. I want you to hit the streets and clean up this town. Go it alone or take backup, but either way I want you to send a message to those scumbags: there are laws in my city, and my enforcers are packing loaded "Justice." Now hit the streets! Lethal Enforcers Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text Gun Adjustment Mode: Aim Center: When you aim for the center of the target displayed on the screen and pull the trigger, a sight automatically appears and the AIM TEST screen appears. Aim Test: Aim at the screen and pull the trigger. When a mark appears at the spot you were shooting at, the adjustment is done. Press the Start button, or the button on the side of the gun, to return to Select Mode. To readjust: When you want to do the adjustment again, aim off the screen and pull the trigger. You will go back to AIM CENTER, or you can return to the Select Mode and go through the steps again from the beginning. Note: In AIM CENTER you cannot adjust two guns at the same time. Adjust one, and then return to adjust the other. If you change the distances of the guns from the screen or firing point, readjustment is necessary. The game is designed so that you will get the best response when shooting from a distance of 7-10 feet from the TV screen. Gun Operation: * When you aim at the TV screen and pull the trigger, a bullet is fired. * When you aim away from the TV screen and pull the trigger, your gun is reloaded. * To Continue, press the START button, or the button on the side of The Justifier. * At game over, if your score is among the top 10, the name entry screen appears. Controller Operation: * Move the control pad to move the sighting crosshairs. * Press the A or B button to fire a bullet. * Press the C button to reload. * Press START to pause and resume. * To Continue, press the Start button. * At game over, if your score is among the top 10, the name entry screen appears. Lethal Enforcers Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Arcade Mode Rules: 1. Shoot the bad guys. Fire bullets at them and their projectiles: hand grenades, knives, bazooka shells, etc. 2. Don't hit innocent bystanders. 3. Don't get shot! Do you think you can handle that, Rookie? When you start the game your rank is Patrolman. By shooting enemies and not hitting innocent people, you raise your hitting ratio and can raise you ranking. When two people are playing together, both must fulfill the rank requirements to clear the stage. It is important to work together to beat the enemy. Your rank will drop each time you hit an innocent bystander. When your life drops to zero, the game is over. When you have credit, even if you lose all life, Continue is possible. Stage Clear rank required: Stage 1 Clear: Detective Stage 2 Clear: Sergeant Stage 3 Clear: Captain Stage 4 Clear: Lieutenant Scum Stomping Equipment: You can pick up some items in the game to help you wipe out these vermin. To pick up an item, shoot it. These aren't permanent, though. If you take a hit from an enemy, you will revert back to your standard issue weapon. Magnum: Fire power rises; holds six rounds of ammunition. Automatic: Holds 12 rounds. Assault rifle: Fires three consecutive shots; holds 12 rounds. Shotgun: Sprays lead in a relatively big area; holds six rounds. Machine gun: Fires consecutively while the trigger is pulled (or A or B button is held down); holds 36 rounds and cannot be reloaded. Grenade gun: Bullets explode; holds 8 rounds only and cannot be reloaded. Practice Mode Rules: Fire at targets and knock them down. You must hit the target before it disappears or it is counted as a miss. Even moving targets must be hit before they disappear off the screen. If you hit an innocent bystander target, it counts as a miss. The percentage displayed at the bottom of the screen is the hitting ratio required to clear the stage. If you get a higher percentage, you will be promoted. If your percentage is lower, you keep the same rank and lose one life. Life also decreases each time you miss an enemy target. NOTE: In Practice Mode, rank has no bearing on stage clear. Basically, the only requirement for clearing a stage is the hitting ratio.

I have fought with the strangest of creatures and searched for precious treasures, but today I have received the most unusual duty of my entire life. A few days ago, I returned to Whitewood from battle with ogres to the south. King Frederick informed me that his elder brother, none other than King Weeden of this land of Green Row, desired my presence. Weary of battle, I thought I was coming for a pleasant rest. How wrong I was. Trembling, King Weeden informed me that his townspeople have been disappearing daily. None of the astrological charts reveal anything. Not even the king's own oracle can provide the answer. Green Row has always been a safe and charming land. Not any longer. I must find out what is happening to King Weeden's people, and return them. Something very evil is at work.

Weapon Shop The items might be a little expensive, but you're guaranteed excellent quality. Inn A stay at the Inn is well worth the 10 gold pieces you pay.

You can buy element capsules and sometimes find one after you defeat an enemy. Each time you find a new element capsule, your count for that element is increased by 10 points. The maximum number of points for any of the four element counts is 99. Each time you cast a spell which requires a certain element, 1 point is subtracted from that element's count. MODE Press Button C repeatedly to toggle between the on and off settings. When a white dot appears in the circle next to the feature name, that feature is enabled.

SELECTING MAGIC Access the MAGIC feature on the Main screen as you would other features by pressing Button C when MAGIC is highlighted. Select a spell by pressing the D-Pad Left or Right to highlight one of the four element capsules. The count for an element is listed below each capsule. Press Button C to select that element. However, if you have not yet acquired any capsules for a certain element, the count is displayed as zero and you cannot select that element. For example, if you wanted to select Turn Undead, you would need to highlight and select the Wind, Earth, and Water elements. Notice that at the bottom of the screen the spell Turn Undead is listed. You can now use this spell during game play. Each time you cast this spell during the game, 1 point is subtracted from the Wind, Earth, and Water element counts. You can also activate the spell list to review and select spells. Hold the D-Pad Up and press Button C. The spell list appears on the right side of the screen. To select a spell, press the D-Pad Up or Down to highlight, then Button C. FINDING AN ITEM Weapons and Armor You start the game with the Long Sword, Plate(armour) and Gloves. On your adventure, you will find more powerful weapons and armor. Taking time to look for other weapons and armor is well worth the effort! Potion Blue Potion: Cures you of any poisons. Red Potion: Restores all lost Hit Points. Food and Drink There are many kinds of foods you can buy or find. Use those listed below to restore lost Hit Points or cure poisons. Element Capsules There are four kinds of these that enable you to cast spells: Wind, Fire, Earth, and Water. Keys You need to find keys to pass through certain locked doors. You automatically pass through such a door if you are carrying the necessary key. Life Bubble Each one you find increases your maximum number of Hit Points by 10. Pendant When you lose all of your Hit Points, the game is over. However, if you have a Pendant, you start again from the room where the game ended with all of your Hit Points restored. Relics There are several special items which you need to find to proceed in this game. Look carefully for these special items! Light Crusader A Special Chamber Use Up/Down to scroll text SPECIAL ROOMS Saving the Game During your adventure, you will come across small rooms with runes inscribed on the floor. If you step on the writing, the game prompts SAVE?. Highlight Yes or No with the D-Pad and press Button C to select. Teleportation Travel between this type of rune chamber and other rune chambers like it which you have visited before. After walking across the rune, press the D-Pad Up or Down to highlight the location of the rune chamber you wish to visit. Press Button C. Magic Fountain When you're low on Hit Points, there is nothing more valuable than a Magic Fountain. Walk towards one and touch it. All lost Hit Points are restored. HAVING TROUBLE? Jumping Due to the 3-D view of the game, jumps can sometimes be a little tricky. Watch your character's shadow, and not the character itself, to help you guide the jump. Locked Doors There are several reasons why you can't open locked doors. Ask yourself the following questions: * Have I looked everywhere possible for keys? * Have I flipped all switches that I have come across? * Have I not yet performed some kind of special task in the room? Boss Monsters Once in a while you come across one. They're tough and mean. It might take several attempts to get rid of one, or maybe you won't be able to beat it. Maybe you need to find something that can help you. Losing Your Way Write down any advice you hear. You will receive a lot of it. Sometimes, the King, the oracle, or another character might have useful information. Light Crusader Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Memorize where the two kinds of rune chambers are. It's easier to teleport than to walk from place to place. It's also easier to save the game at the closest rune chamber rather than go all the way back to one found earlier in the game. * The same goes for magic fountains-memorize their locations. Traveling back to the town of Green Rod to buy items for healing costs you in time and money, but visiting a magic fountain costs you nothing. * Many of the rooms you enter on your adventure are actually puzzles. After entering such a room, spend a little bit of time trying to solve the puzzle rather than heading blindly into action. You might save a lot of time this way.

Each course takes place in a different landscape, and each has its own hazardous road conditions-from ice to fog to giant boulders. The tracks must be completed in order. On each track, there are anywhere from four to nine checkpoints. A checkpoint is a location you must reach in order to continue the race. You have a limited number of seconds in which to make it to the next checkpoint-if you don't reach it in the alloted time, your car grinds to a dead stop and the race is over...for you at least. The checkpoints are spaced such that you must maintain a high speed in order to pass them all. This means that youmust avoid doing things that will slow you down and waste valuable seconds-things like hitting stationary objects, colliding with other cars, or driving on the shoulder of the road(where the traction is less than optimal). The ultimate goal, of course, is to reach the finish line ahead of your opponents. Track 1-Forest Water, logs, and rocks lay strewn across the track. The rocks and water slow you down, but the logs can be useful-hit them head on and you can use them to jump puddles and opponents. Track 2-Night With visibility severely limited, a sudden bend could be the end of the road for you. Careful in those tunnels-those walls can do a number on your paint job. Track 3-Fog High-speed driving in the fog makes night-racing look easy. Buried in this soup is one of the most twisted, sidewinding tracks in the game. Add oil slicks-liberally scattered on the road-and you're in for one hell of a race. This is definitely a road that puts your career on a collision course. Track 4-Snow Driving snow, treacherous ice patches and lighter-than-light steering. Challenging enough? Try it once before you answer. Track 5_Desert This barren wasteland is a home to very little except cacti, tumbleweeds, and the huge sand drifts that pile up on the side of road-hit one of these and you'll soon realize that your Lotus has a firt gear! Keep to the center of the track where the traction is better. Track 6-Interstate There are two lanes on this track. You can cross the divide and go into the opposite lane-where the traffic's decidedly lighter-but be sure to steer clear of those oncoming cars. Avoid trucks crossing your path at intersections, or just drive underneath them for extra points. This is the ultimate urban adventure! Track 7-Marsh The wetland on either side of road isn't particaularly dangerous, but it can slow your car down to a crawl in seconds. Stay on the asphalt so you don't lose valuable time. Also, keep an eye out for the green extra time icons. You'll see the extra time icons in the middle of the road-run them over to add some much-needed seconds to the Checkpoint Clock. Note: These seconds could be lost if you hit oil or miss one of the log jumps and go flying into the water. Track 8-Storm Pounding rain, booming thunder, and flashing lightning. If mother nature doesn't put a little fear in your heart, the breakneck turns will. There's a lot of distance to cover between the checkpoints, so keep an eye out for the red turbo icons. You'll see the turbo icons in the middle of the road-run them over for an extra burst of speed. Racing Once you're behind the wheel, it's just you, the Lotus, and the road. Rev Bar The Rev Bar displays your engine's power. If the red bar is to the right of the rectangular box, your engine is doing overtime. If it's to the left, then you're going too slow for victory. The number above the bar is your current speed in miles per hour. If it's not three figures, then for cryin' out loud, speed up! Score This number is your current score. Checkpoint Clock The Checkpoint Clock measures the precious few seconds you have left to make it to the next checkpoint. Whenever you pass a checkpoint, more seconds are added to the clock. If the clock reaches zero before you reach the next checkpoint, the race is over. However, if you're lucky enough to be close to the checkpoint, there may be a chance you'll coast over the line, in which case you'll be greeted with the sound of your car's engine bursting into life. Gears The five-on-the-floor diagram shows the current gear you're in. This is really only important if you're in Manual Gears mode. Distance Bar The Distance Bar appears below the Rev Bar but only in 2 Player mode. This rectangle represents the track you are racing, the colored box represents your Lotus(Red for Player 1 and white for Player 2). This feature allows you to at a glance monitor how far in front or behind your friend(enemy?) you are. Head-To-Head-2 Player Games In a 2 Player game, you and a friend compete against each other and a score of Sega Genesis-controlled opponents. The screen is divided into two parts: Player 1 is the white car at the top of the screen and uses Controller 1 for steering; Player 2 is the red car at the bottom of the screen and uses Controller 2. Race Results & High Score Once you've finished a race, the Race Results screen appears: Your Score The screen displays a picture of the course with a marker denoting your car and your opponent's car(only present in 2 player mode). The markers will start to move down the length of the course, portraying your movements as they go. Press A, B, C or Start to move the markers to the end position.

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME THE GAMES HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Magic School Bus Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text Blast Off with Ms. Frizzle! Did you ever wish your school bus would take a right turn to someplace incredibly fun? What if your school bus took an up-turn and headed right into outer space? And what if you could play tag in outer space with your teacher? Guess what--you can! Meet Ms. Frizzle, the spaciest science teacher on planet Earth. Her field trips are really out of this world...way out...all the way to the end of the Solar System. Find out about your Solar System. Ms. Frizzle will show you many things you've never seen before. There are lots of wonders in the Solar System...space stations, gigantic planets, icy glowing comets, asteroids and cheese wheels (just kidding!). Oh, wait a minute. What about The Magic School Bus? The Magic School Bus transforms into a space ship. It can fly all the way to Pluto and back on one tank of gas! Don't worry, if you don't know what Pluto is, you're going to find out. One more Bus thing. You are the bus driver or bus astronaut or "Bustronaut!" You get to pilot the Bus/spaceship to distant planets. You'll also meet a special friend named Liz. Keep an eye on Liz during your space travels. Liz will guide you by giving you hints on what to do. Liz also keep your score during the game. What You'll Do: You'll head towards the Moon! Here's what you'll do on each trip: * First, blast off in The Magic School Bus for your flight to the planet. On the way, you can take photos of interesting space objects. Some of these objects are natural, some were made by scientists...and some are just plain goofy. * Next, pull off tricky landings on planets that sometimes don't even have any surface! * After that, you're ready for a walk that includes a wacky version of hide 'n seek with Ms. Frizzle. Pull off the right moves and you'll enjoy special games during the mission. * When the quest is over, use what you learned in space to play the Shuffle and Matching Pairs games. Now put on your spacesuit and get ready for some fun!

During the missions, you can lose lives and run out of fuel, so you need to be careful. You will be timed in the Shuffle and Matching Pairs games. * Hard-Just like the Normal level, except you begin with four lives. Traveling in the Solar System The Magic School Bus is ready to blast off on its mission to the Moon or to one of the eight other planets (not counting Earth) in the Solar System. Ms. Frizzle takes off first. She leaves a trail of blue and silver space buoys for you to follow. Collect these space buoys to earn points! Each mission has five phases. Watch Liz add up your points at the end of each phase. * Flight: Travel to the Moon or a distant planet, snapping photos and blasting asteroids.

Zap three gold asteroids and enter the Astro Blaster reward game. When the asteroid threat is gone, the Asteroid Blaster turns back into the Camera. Liz: Liz is your copilot on the flight. Watch her for signals about what to do. Liz points in the direction you should go. She also points to space objects that are good photo subjects. Fuel and Speed: You can save on fuel by not taking too many asteroid hits. (Getting hit also slows you down.) It's tough to nail asteroids if you're flying fast. When you get low on fuel, an alarm sounds and the fuel bar flashes red. If you run out of fuel, The Magic School Bus has to re-launch the mission. * Press Button A to slow down the bus. * Press Button B to speed it up. Heads-Up Read Out: Watch for wise words from your classmates. They'll give you messages on screen to warn you of upcoming asteroid storms or fuel problems. They may also compliment you on taking good photos...or poke fun when you fly crazy! Progress Meter: Watch the progress meter to see how close you're getting to your destination. The flight ends when the Moon or a planet looms large in the window. Congratulations! You made it! Now you've got to land. Landing The Magic School Bus Each planet has a landing platform hidden somewhere on the surface. Most of the time, it's in some really tricky spot. Check the map to find the landing pad's location. Before landing, you can earn points by grabbing the space buoys that float in the air and even in caves. Using the Retro Rockets: Fire up your retro rockets to land. * Button A: Gentle thrust. * Button B: Medium thrust. * Button C: Strong thrust. * D-Pad: Steer. Fuel for Landing: Be careful not to run out of fuel while landing. Check your map to find the location of fuel cans, then fly over them to get more fuel.

Walking on the Planets Now it's time to explore on foot or on float. You are wearing an awesome spacesuit that protects you from the burning heat of Venus and the freezing cold of Neptune. The spacesuit has a thruster for long-range jumps. Press Button C to use it. Most planets have hard surfaces that you can walk on. But some planets are just huge masses of gas. On these planets, you walk across clouds or special support buoys. Other planets have furious winds, acid rain and electrical storms, so look out! Things to Do While Walking: * Jump on space buoys to collect points, fuel and extra lives. Get as many as you can. * Collect starts to enter the Reflector game. * Look for oxygen and fuel cans to fill up your supplies. If you run out of either oxygen or fuel, you must begin the walk again. * Rider around on landers and space buggies. * Check your map to see where you are. * Find Ms. Frizzle to complete the walk. Lives When playing the Normal and Hard difficulty levels, you will lose a life if you take too much damage or run out of oxygen or fuel. In the Easy level, you can't lose lives or run out of fuel. During Spaceflight, asteroid hits use up fuel, and can make the bus run out of gas. Meteor hits and other planet hazards use up oxygen during the walk. You can collect more lives by picking up Extra Life power-ups, or earning a high number of points. When you lose a life, you must start the phase over. When all your lives are gone, the game ends. Space Resources Collect these important items. They are stashed throughout the Solar System. * Space Buoys: Blue space buoys hold power-ups and give you points. Follow them for the quickest path to Ms. Frizzle. Red space buoys give you stronger power-ups and higher points. * Oxygen: You'll need this during planet walks. Find more in space buoys, corners and caves. * Fuel: Find fuel in plain sight or hidden in space buoys and caves. * Extra Life: Grab this space cadet and get an extra life! * Stardust Shield: This shield will protect The Magic School Bus for a short time in the Astro Blaster reward game.

Press the D-Pad to move Liz over any card. 2. Press Button A, B or C to flip up the card and see what's on the other side. 3. Jump Liz to another card and flip it up. Try to pick a card that contains the photo or name that matches the other card that's flipped up. 4. When you get the match right, Liz claps! If you don't make a match, the cards flip back over. 5. When you match all the cards, Liz gives you a big hand! REMEMBER: Watch the hour glass if you are playing on the Normal or Hard level.

This is Astro Blaster! * Press Button C to blast oncoming asteroids. Rack up points, extra lives, continues, and more fuel with each zap. * Use the D-Pad to aim your shots. * Press Button A or B to speed up The Magic School Bus. * Blast meteoroids and get a star shield as temporary protection from asteroid hits. * Astro Blaster goes on forever, with ever-increasing numbers of falling asteroids, until you run out of continues. Then, The Magic School Bus resumes it's interplanetary journey. Orbiter Make your own Solar System in this space-pinball challenge! Collect lots of points during a mission to enter the game. Then, launch the planets so they fall into orbit around the Sun. This is tricky! * A planet is automatically loaded into the launcher. Press the D-Pad down to get ready for launching. * Press the D-Pad left or right to aim the launcher. * Press Button A, B or C to launch the planet into orbit! * Try to get your timing just right. Launch too soon and the planet gets sucked up by the Sun's gravity. Launch too late and the planet sails off to a different star system. * See if you can get four planets in orbit. If you pull that off, you get to try again with more planets! Reflector This is Solar System handball! Collect 10 stars during a Planet Walk to enter the challenge. To play the game, bounce balls against the asteroid wall as they automatically drop into space. * Use the D-Pad to move The Magic School Bus left and right to paddle the balls. * Hold down Button A, B or C to speed up The Magic School Bus. * Keep the ball bouncing to bust loose meteoroids and planets. * Try to catch everything that zooms at The Magic School Bus and keep the ball going at the same time.

Marko's Magic Soccer Ball Domark To return to Now Playing, reset your adapter. CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS THE CAST PICK-UP ITEMS HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Marko's Magic Soccer Ball Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text Marko was mad...soccer mad! All day he played soccer and all night he dreamt about the game. And that's the way things would have stayed, if it hadn't been for the deadly plan cooked up by the evil Colonel Brown in the bowels of his sinister toy factory. Not content with his lot, the cunning Colonel has devised a plan for the domination of North Sterlington. By using his latest evil invention--a deadly genetic sludge--the evil genius plans to turn the town's cute and cuddly animals into deadly sludge monsters. In the dead of night, the Colonel's hapless helpers place toxic canisters of the sludge around North Sterlington--surely nothing can stop the Colonel's plans now! Well, maybe there is one person... On his way to soccer practice, Marko kicks his ball into a dark alley. Peering into the darkness he sees the most amazing thing--a meek rat turned into a hideous sludge creature by the Colonel's sludge. Cripes! The mutant rat makes his move, but Marko is quicker, seeing the rotten rodent off with a quick smack of his magic soccer ball. Hang on a minute! A magic soccer ball? What's happened here? Who cares? With his new ball by his side, our hero takes off into the depths of North Sterlington to see what's going on... Marko's Magic Soccer Ball Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text Young Marko's got loads of stunning trick-shots up his sleeve, but it's up to you to bring out the best in him. To find out just exactly what the budding young soccer star is capable of, go straight to the 'backyard' section and try out some of the following moves. When you think you've had enough practice in the backyard section, move to the right to find your way out. Moving Marko (without the ball): * Using the D-Pad moves Marko left or right. * Press A while moving left or right and Marko breaks into a run. * Press B and Marko jumps skyward. * Press C to summon the ball to Marko's feet. Ball Action: The fun really starts as soon as Marko has the ball at his feet. Here are some of the options available... * Short kick: Press C then press down on the D-Pad. * Low kick: Just tap the C button. * Medium kick: Hold the C button for just that little bit longer. * Chip: Press C then press up on the D-Pad. * Juggling: Press up on the D-Pad controller then press C (this is similar to the chip control, but with a little practice you should be able to do both without any fuss). * Head juggling: When juggling, press up on the D-Pad and C and Marko chips the ball onto his head (jump when Marko is head juggling to make short work of overhead enemies). * Overhead kicks: When juggling, press C for an acrobatic overhead kick; hold for low, tap for high. Apart from kicking and juggling, Marko uses his magic soccer ball for one more very important use. Press B to jump onto the ball, then hold B and Marko uses the soccer ball as his own personal trampoline--very handy for reaching those parts that other soccer-mad kids can't reach. The backyard is also as good a place as any to familiarize yourself with the layout of the game screen. The star and cola can counters at the top right of the screen record just how many of these particular pick-ups you've collected along the way. The life and energy counter is situated at the bottom left of the screen. The number denotes Marko's remaining lives, while the five-section energy bar diminishes as our hero collides with his enemies. Marko's Magic Soccer Ball The Cast Use Up/Down to scroll text The inhabitants of North Sterlington are a peculiar lot--and none too friendly either. Just about all of them are out to stop Marko's mission. So, as it tells you in all of the best military handbooks--it pays to know your enemy. Here's a selection of some of the most common (and the rewards for taking them out)... The Bouncing Bobby (no points): PC Plod doesn't actually have anything against Marko--it's just that he's a good friend of Postie's. He's mean, he's moody and he's armed with some of the hardest transport from the local playground, and he always gets his man. The Terrible Twins (200 points): Jealous of Marko's soccer success, the twins try to put a stop to his journey by using their deadly spud guns. Ball against potato--it's kill or be killed. The Birds (150 points, 300 if airborne): The scourge of North Sterlington, these feathered fiends seem happy to take time out from whitewashing the locals' cars in order to dive-bomb our hero. The Rats (500 points): Scurrying about all of North Sterlington's below-ground areas (and even making it out into the sunlight from time to time) these vermin are deadly to the touch. Silent the Hedgehog (150 points): Not only can this spiky character steal one unit of Marko's precious energy--he's prickly enough to knock the wind out of his magic soccer. Busy Bees (400 points): Signaling their arrival with a distinctive buzz, these insects have a real sting in their tails--and once again it's the ball that comes off worst. The Plane (500 points): Indigenous to the toy factory, these ferocious flying frights are remotely controlled by the factory workers. And the rest... The supporting cast includes spooks, sludge monsters, dinosaurs and spiders--but maybe it's best if you search these out for yourself. Marko's Magic Soccer Ball Pick-Up Items Use Up/Down to scroll text He may have a magic soccer ball, but even that won't be enough to help Marko through all of the levels. What he needs is to make the most of the numerous pick-ups which lie about, float about and are scattered about the levels. These include... Hearts: Picking up a heart fills an extra unit on Marko's energy bar--unless all five are already full. Balloons (10 points): Burst a passing balloon (either by touching it or hitting it with the magic soccer) and it releases a Cola Can. Pick these up for healthy end-of-level bonuses, and an instant 100 point bonus. Stars: Collect one hundred stars for an extra life (large stars are worth eight of the smaller variety, so watch out for these in particular). Plasma Balls (5,000 points): It may look odd, but this pulsating mass of lights is one of the best around--pick it up for a guaranteed extra life. Mystery Trainers: Available in red, green and blue, these...no, maybe we'll let you find the trainers' powers out for yourself.

Marko's Magic Soccer Ball Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Should you find that things are moving a little too slowly for your liking, simply run and kick the ball at the same time--this should be enough for even the biggest speed freak. * Not every bonus is obvious to the naked eye-try jumping around (and even using the ball) to find hidden pick-ups. * There's more than one way to skin a cat (knock a policeman off his bike or bash a sludge monster), and as the old advice goes--if at first you don't succeed... * Remember that Marko's a versatile little soccer player, so if you can't reach an enemy by normal means try using an overhead kick or another special move. * You cannot leave certain levels without destroying all of the sludge cans: it's up to you to find out which. * Overhead kicks are more powerful than the normal variety, so make as much use of them as possible. * Even when the ball is floating, it still makes a perfectly good trampoline. Use this to make your way across the wider expanses of water or sludge. * While Marko is head juggling, move to the left or right and press A and C to execute a special forward header. * Bounce on your soccer ball for the highest jump and use the plama ball against bosses.

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME CIRCUIT RACING HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Mario Andretti Racing Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text The Man It's hard to know where to start when talking about Mario Andretti. He's excelled at almost every kind of car racing on the planet- sprints, stocks, Indy Car, Formula One-you name it, he's won it. He began racing at age 13 in Italy, hiding the fact from his parents. He and his twin brother Aldo split racing time in a single seat Fiat. When Mario broke his kneecap in a race, he told his parents he'd fallen on the church steps. His plans for a Grand Prix career were cut short at age 19 when the family emigrated to Nazareth, Pennsylvania. For Mario, this, like every other obstacle in his way, was just another challenge to overcome. He took a correspondence course in English so he could keep up with his schoolmates. He found stock cars, midgets, and sprints he could drive on local dirt tracks. His career took off, and he never looked back. There were struggles along the away, of course-making ends meet with a growing family, accidents, living out of a racing caravan -but Mario always kept charging forward. You know the highpoints of Mario's career-wins in races as diverse as the Indianapolis 500, Daytona 500, and Sebring 1 2-Hour Sports Car Classic. Three Indy Car championships and a World Grand Prix championship. He's won on dirt and asphalt, oval tracks and road courses. In 1992, he was named Driver of the QuarterCentury, the highest accolade a driver can receive. Mario has announced that 1994 will be his last year in racing. As the Arrivederci Mario tour unfolds, EA Sports is proud to announce the release of Mario Andretti Racing. Mario Andretti Racing is a digital distillation of Mario's spirit-like the man, it's an all-around champion. In Mario Andretti Racing, you can race in Sprint, Stock, or Indy circuit seasons, or drive your way through an entire career. Accumulate points toward a circuit championship, and earn money to upgrade your car. One player or head to head, series or a single race-it's your call. The heart of Andretti Racing is realism. You don't just look at a different set of pretty pictures when you switch from Sprint to Stock to Indy driving. The physics are real -- when you're on dirt, you slide harder than you do on asphalt. As your tires wear, the car handles more loosely. Should you pit this lap or try to gut it out for one lap longer on those bald tires? To succeed, you must drive with intelligence and skill. And if you prove worthy, you can be a Career Champion like Mario Andretti.

Mario Andretti Racing Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Introduction Racing School Single Race mode is a good place to begin learning the ins and outs of racing. You can try out any car on any available track before you start your run for the big bucks in Circuit or Career modes. Car Select Screen The Car Select screen is used to set up car options (car type, color, shifting method, and car equipment) and select a player name. * Highlight SINGLE RACE from the Main menu and press C or START. The Car Select screen appears. * D-Pad up/down to highlight options. * D-Pad left/right to change the highlighted option. * To return to the previous screen, press A. * To accept the setup and advance to the Race Setup screen, press START. TYPE: SPRINT, STOCK, or INDY car type. The selected car type is highlighted on the left side of the screen. PAINT: D-Pad left/right through the available colors to select the color of your car. TRANS: AUTO transmission (computer controlled shifting is the default mode; you only control brake, gas, and steering) or MANUAL (you must shift using D-Pad up/down). CAR: Select one of the available car equipment packages. Cars are identified by number in the menu. You can use the different cars to handicap a race between players with different skill levels, or make a race against computer drivers more or less challenging. NAME: Highlight this option and press C to open a Player Name window. * D-Pad left/right to select a character with the cursor arrow. * D-Pad up/down to cycle forward/backward through the numbers and alphabet. The default name is PLAYER 1 (or PLAYER 2 if you are Player 2). * Press START to save your name and return to the Car Select screen. (Press A to exit without saving your name.) In 2 Player mode, the Car Select menu is divided into two screens: 1. In the first screen, players choose the car TYPE, and if desired, player NAMES. 2. Player 1 presses START to continue, and then a second screen appears where both players can select PAINT, TRANS, and CAR options. 3. When both players press START, the Race Setup screen appears. (If either or both players press A, they return to the previous screen.) Race Setup Screen: The Race Setup screen is used to select track options and then practice, qualify, or race. In Single Race mode, all the below options are available. In Circuit or Career mode, SELECT TRACKS and LAPS are set automatically and can't be changed. * D-Pad up/down to highlight options. * D-Pad left/right to change the highlighted option (if applicable). * To activate the highlighted option, press C or START. SELECT TRACK: Select one of the five available tracks for the current car type. An overhead view of the track appears on the right side of the screen with descriptive text. LAPS: Select the number of laps for the RACE option below. Each track has its own default number of laps, but you can create your own custom race lengths in SINGLE RACE mode. ANDRETTI TIPS: Practice (with no other cars) on the selected track with interactive tips and advice from Mario. QUALIFY: Drive three solo laps on the selected track. The fastest of the three laps is your qualifying time, which determines your starting grid position relative to the other drivers. RACE: Drive a race on the selected track for the selected number of laps. OPTIONS: Go to the Options screen. MAIN MENU: Go to the Main menu. Driving Controls The default driving controls are as follows (they can be changed from the Options screen): * To steer, press D-Pad left/right. * To shift up/down in Manual shift mode, press D-Pad up/down. * To brake, tap or press A. * To accelerate, press and hold B. Keep holding the button down to maintain speed. To drive at less than full speed, repeatedly tap or 'pulse' B. * To change the upper window view while racing in 1 Player mode, press C. Shifting If you choose MANUAL transmission from the Car Select screen (or from the Circuit Setup screen in Circuit or Career modes), you'll shift the car manually on the track. Manual shifting isn't easy-to really test your skills, try manual shifting on the Pro difficulty level. Normally, you shift up and down one gear by pressing up or down on the D-Pad, although the shifting controls can be changed from the Options screen. The RPM bar gives you feedback on your gear selection: * When the bar is green, your RPM is too low. Keep the accelerator pressed down, and if the bar doesn't rise, downshift until it starts to rise. * When the bar is yellow, you are in acceptable RPM range. However, don't assume that you are getting the maximum possible speed just because the bar is yellow-if the bar is oscillating rapidly, it's time to shift up. * When the bar is orange, you're overrevving-shift up or back off on the accelerator. Andretti Tips In this mode, you drive solo on the selected track with Mario Andretti as your guide. Mario offers interactive advice based on your performance. This is the best way to learn a track. You can drive for as long as you want-your tire and fuel bars always stay full in this mode. To practice with Andretti Tips: 1. Highlight ANDRETTI TIPS from the Race Setup screen and press C or START. The Racetrack screen appears. 2. Drive as normal on the track. As you drive, performance tips from Mario appear on the screen. The tips are specific to each track, so absorb tips from all the tracks for a competitive edge. 3. To exit to the Race Setup screen, press START. Only Player 1 can drive in Andretti Tips. If both players want to practice, they must take turns. Qualifying Qualifying is the 'time trial' in which you drive against the clock to determine your starting position-the faster your lap time relative to the other drivers, the closer to the start of the grid you begin the race. You qualify for three laps, and then your best lap time is taken. To Qualify: 1. Highlight QUALIFY from the Race Setup screen and press C or START. The Racetrack screen appears. 2. You approach the Start/Finish line with a rolling start, and take control of the car immediately. 3. Hit the gas and drive as fast as you can. With one lap to go, you get the white flag, and then the checkered flag as you finish the last lap. * To exit from Qualifying before the checkered flag, press START. If you exit before the end of one lap, you don't get a qualifying time. Otherwise, your best lap time is taken as your qualifying time when you exit. Mario Andretti Racing gives you performance feedback while you're qualifying. The dot on the track is your current position-this gives you an indication of what's coming up. The LAP and BEST lap time readouts show your current and best lap times. In 2 Player mode, both players simultaneously qualify, although you won't see the other car in your racetrack window. You don't get lap time information-the top half of the screen is occupied by Player 2. After you make your qualifying run, the Grid Position screen appears. A graphic representation of the starting grid appears on the left side of the screen, and a text printout of the grid appears on the right, with driver names followed by their best lap time (with precision to one hundredth of a second). * To accept your grid position and go right to the start of the race, press C or START. * To return to the Race Setup screen, press A. Qualifying is the one area of racing where consistency isn't rewarded-you just need one fast lap to get to the top of the starting grid. So go ahead and take chances. If you spin on one lap, it won't affect your time on the next lap. Your qualifying time can be especially crucial in a short race where you don't get much chance to work your way through the pack. If you blow it while qualifying, press A at the Grid Position screen and then try again from the Race Setup screen. Racing Racing is a little different than gunning around the track in Andretti Tips or Qualifying mode. For one thing, there are all those pesky other drivers to worry about. A corner that seems easy when you're the only car on the track can be quite a different matter when you're trying to maneuver around a car that's blocking you. There are ten cars in every race. In 1 Player mode you race against 9 computer drivers; in 2 Player mode two human players race against 8 computer drivers. Note: You should Qualify before you start a race. If you don't, you are placed last in the starting grid. To Race: 1. Highlight RACE from the Race Setup screen and press C or START. The Grid Position screen appears. 2. Press C or START to continue (or A to exit back to the Race Setup screen). The Racetrack screen appears. You take control of your car when the starter waves the green flag. Your racing position is determined by your standing in the Grid Position screen-if you have the fourth fastest qualifying lap, you start the race in fourth place. 3. The cars approach the Start/Finish line with a rolling start (not a standing start-you're already moving when you cross the Start/Finish line). When you see the starter wave the green flag, hit the gas and drive as fast as you can. With one lap to go, you get the white flag, and then the checkered flag as you finish the last lap. * To cycle through the different upper window views in 1 Player mode, press C. * To pause the race and go to the Pause menu, press START. In the Stock and Indy circuits, your crew chief contacts you over your car radio throughout the race. He advises you of your position if you're in the top 3, chastises you if you're banging into too many cars, and lets you know if you're low on fuel. After the Race: After the checkered flag, you're notified of how you've done in the race: * If you finish in the top three, a congratulatory screen appears. Press C or START to continue. * The Race Results screen appears. The standings for the race (1-10) are listed, with player name(s) called out with flashing letters. * To return to the Race Setup screen, highlight RACE AGAIN and press START. * To return to the Main menu, highlight MAIN MENU and press START. The Pits You start every race with a full tank of gas and fresh tires. Depending on the track surface, the length of the race, and how you drive, you may be able to complete a race without having to make any pit stops-but don't count on it. Note: There are no pits in sprint racing, because the races are short and the cars aren't designed to be serviced during a race. Tires: As your tires wear, you lose traction. If the bar is green, you're basically OK. If it's yellow, you'll test your driving skills on the corners -if you carry too much speed, you'll go right off the track. If it's red, pit now! If you completely exhaust your tire bars you'll slow to a crawl and have trouble controlling the car. Tip: Driving on the beams at the edge of the track, spinning out, and sliding wear out your tires much faster than normal. If you avoid these things, your tires last longer. Fuel: Pay attention to how fast your fuel bar goes down-if you're in an 8-lap race, and you've used more than half your fuel at 4 laps, you know you're going to have to pit. If you run out of fuel, you'll slowly and painfully limp around the track while other cars zoom past you. Don't let this happen to you-make a pit stop when your fuel bar gets down to yellow or red. To pit: Each Stock and Indy race track has a pit lane marked with cones and tires. Make a mental note of where the pit lane is on the Race Setup screen. In 1 Player mode you can press C to change your top window view until you see the Overhead View, which shows a map of the track. Steer into the pit lane when you're ready to pit, and the crew automatically puts on new tires and pumps the tank full of fuel. As the crew works on your car, the Tire and Fuel bars rise. You don't need to reduce speed to pit-just enter the pit lane and hold down the accelerator until the digitized pit crew animations appear, and everything else is automatic. To 'Splash and Go'-get a splash of fuel without changing tires-press C as you enter the pit area. This takes less time than a full pit stop. To shorten a pit stop in progress, press B. As soon as your tires are replaced, you'll be pushed out of the pits, whether your fuel tank is full or not. (Pressing B also shortens a Splash and Go pit in progress.) When the digitized crew is finished working and pushes the car to get you started, press the accelerator. Watch for oncoming traffic as you pull back onto the track. Racing Options Pause Menu The Pause menu appears when you press START at any time after the start of a race (Race mode only). This menu freezes the action and lets you change your racing view, display an instant replay, or quit the race. The Pause menu is available only in Race mode. * To select one of the four options, D-Pad up/down. * To activate the selected option, press START. The Pause menu options are as follows: RESUME RACE Go back to the race. INSTANT REPLAY Go to Instant Replay screen. (See Instant Replay below.) CHANGE VIEW Toggle between Nose Cam and Chase Cam views. Any change is temporary; after the race the view reverts back to the setting in the Options menu. QUIT RACE Exit the race. Press C to quit and return to the Main menu, or A to return to the Pause menu. Instant Replay If you select Instant Replay from the Pause menu, you go into Instant Replay mode, where you can view the last few seconds of action. The replay starts at the beginning of the stored action. * To rewind, press and hold A. * To play at normal speed, press and hold B. To view the action frame by frame, tap B. * To fast forward, press and hold C. * To return to the Pause menu, press START. Changing Views You can view the action on the track in a number of ways in 1 Player mode. Your main racing view (either a Nose Cam or Chase Cam view, depending on your Options menu setting) appears at the bottom of the screen, and the top half of the screen is changeable. The best time to change your view is before you cross the starting line at the beginning of a race-you have a couple of seconds of grace time to make changes. * Press C to cycle through the available views while you're racing: Chase Cam View: A view from behind your car. Competitor View: A Nose Cam view from the current race leader's car. If you are in first place, the view of the second place car is used. Rear View: A view looking backward from your car. This perspective is great for checking out the cars behind you. Overhead View: An overhead view of the track (cars appear as appropriately colored dots), with digital readouts of the current lap, best lap time, total time for the race so far, time between you and the car ahead, and the time between you and the car behind. The Overhead View is the best strategic help-not only can you see the current lap time information, you can see your position on the track relative to the other cars. Full Screen: A full screen view of the track-you get a nice view of the sky as well as your car and the track. In 2 Player mode, each player can choose between the Nose Cam or Chase Cam view in the Options screen or the Pause menu. Player 1 appears in the bottom half of the screen, and Player 2 appears in the top half. Pressing C while racing has no effect. Racing Tips General: There's a saying in racing: "In order to be fast on the track, you must be slow in the cockpit." This holds true in Mario Andretti Racing as well. Don't jerk the car around needlessly -every correction you make costs you time. You can 'pulse' the accelerator button to mimic the effect of an actual gas pedal. This technique allows you to control your speed in turns without completely lifting off on the accelerator or using the brake. To pulse the accelerator, rapidly tap and release the B button. The longer you hold down the button before releasing, the more speed you'll maintain. Cornering Running off the track slows you down a lot more than braking does. So if you need to brake to make it around a corner successfully, brake. Don't compound an error by overcompensating. The most common reaction to getting too wide on a corner is to yank the steering wheel in the opposite direction. Unfortunately, this can lead you right off the track on the other side. Only turn far enough to get your car back on the track. Let go of the D-Pad as you come out of a turn to let the car straighten itself out. Your brakes may lock up in a turn if you press and hold down the brake button (A button by default). Tap rather than hold A to brake. Also, let up on the accelerator when you brake-brake and gas don't mix. By outbraking, or braking later than your competitor, you can gain an advantage going into a turn. To outbrake, take the inside line going into a corner and brake later than the car in front of you. You then catch up to him on the inside and force him to let you by-he can't turn without running into you. Drafting You can get a speed boost by drafting the car in front of you -there is a decrease in wind resistance from the low pressure air in the leading car's wake. To draft, position your car directly behind the car in front of you. The closer you are to the leading car, the faster you'll go. If you pick up enough speed, you can pull out and slingshot by your opponent. Mario Andretti Racing Circuit Racing Use Up/Down to scroll text Circuit Racing Rather than racing in one race as in Single Race mode, in Circuit mode you race a series of five races toward a circuit championship in Sprint, Stock, or Indy cars. Money and points are awarded after each race. Use your money to beef up your car and pit crew, and the points determine the overall Circuit standings. To win the Circuit, you must amass more points than any other driver. Note: In ROOKIE mode you start a circuit with no money, but in PRO mode you get a cash advance to give you a chance against the tough competition. You get a $30,000 bankroll for Sprints, $40,000 for Stocks, and $75,000 for the Indy circuit. Starting a Circuit To start a new Circuit: 1. Select ONE or TWO players from the Main menu-you can go solo or take on your buddy. 2. Use the D-Pad to select NEW CIRCUIT from the Main menu, and press START. The Circuit Setup screen appears. To resume a Circuit: 1. Select ONE or TWO players from the Main menu to match the number of players used when your password was assigned at the Race Results screen. 2. Use the D-Pad to highlight RESUME CIRCUIT from the Main menu, and press START. The Password screen appears. Before the Race Custom Performance Center This is the place to cash in the big bucks you've accumulated in racing to beef up your car engine, brakes, tires, and pit crew. The Custom Performance Center screen appears before every Circuit (or Career) race. * To highlight an option, D-Pad up/down. * To change an option, D-Pad left/right. STATUS: Display your current equipment status in the main window. ITEM: ENGINE, TIRES, BRAKES, or PIT CREW (PIT CREW is available in Stock and Indy Circuits only). Engine: Engines are rated in fuel efficiency and speed. The 'Fuel Rtg' ranges from 1-10, with a higher rating yielding more miles per gallon and fewer fuel-related pit stops. Top speed is rated in mph, and is the speed the car can achieve without drafting another car. Tires: Tires are rated in durability and traction from 1-10. Tires are only good for one race-if you don't buy a new set, you revert to Standard tires next race. Brakes: Brake pads are rated from 1-10. Higher brake pad ratings allow you to hold down the brakes longer without locking up. Pit Crew: Higher level pit crews are faster, and have a shorter average pit time in seconds. Your actual pit times in a race will vary. TYPE: LEVEL 1-5, with a correspondingly higher quality (and price). * To accept the changes and go to the Race Setup screen, press START. * To return to the Circuit Setup screen, press A. Note: If you return to the Circuit Setup screen from the Custom Performance Center at any point during a Circuit or Career, your car will be restored to the standard equipment and your bank will be reset to the default level. Your Circuit or Career standings will be maintained. Race Setup Screen The Race Setup screen appears after the Custom Performance Center. The current track in the Circuit is displayed, along with the number of laps for the race. You can choose to Qualify, Race, practice with Andretti Tips, or go to the Options or Main menu screens. To Qualify: * Highlight QUALIFY and press C or START. If you choose not to qualify for a race, you are placed last in the starting grid. * After you've qualified, press C or START to go right to the start of the race, or A to exit to the Race Setup screen. To Race: * Highlight RACE and press C or START. After the Race After the checkered flag, you are notified of how you've done: * If you finish in the top three, a congratulatory screen lists the points and money you've won. Press C or START to continue after each screen. * Next, the Race Results screen lists the placing and times of the ten drivers. A password for restoring the current Circuit standings appears at the bottom of the Race Results screen. There are 20 characters in a 1 Player password, and 24 characters in a 2 Player password. If you want to be able to continue at a later time, write down the password and the number of players and put it somewhere where you won't lose it. * Finally, the Circuit Standings screen lists the standing and points totals for the ten drivers. * To continue to the next race, highlight NEXT COURSE and press START. * To return to the Main menu, highlight MAIN MENU and press START. End of the Circuit If you've won the Circuit, the Circuit Champion screen appears, followed by the Race Results screen. Congratulations! Press C or START to continue after each screen, and the Circuit Standings screen appears. * To start the new Circuit, highlight NEW CIRCUIT and press START. * To return to the Main menu, highlight MAIN MENU and press START. If you didn't win the Circuit, The Race Results screen appears after the last race. Press C or START, and then the Circuit Standings screen appears. To try the Circuit again, highlight RETRY CIRCUIT and press START. Your current Bank money and equipment are maintained, and you start again at the beginning of the Circuit. To exit Circuit mode and return to the Main menu, highlight MAIN MENU and press START. Sprint Circuit Sprint racing is the simplest and humblest of the three Circuits-no pits, and oval dirt tracks. But that doesn't mean that sprints are a cakewalk. The racing is fast and dirty, and it's tricky getting the hang of sliding around the corners. Stock Circuit Stock cars are heavy steel beasts with powerful engines. Stock races are run on long asphalt tracks, sometimes oval, sometimes irregular. You can get up a full head of steam on straight-aways, but stocks aren't too nimble on tight corners-they have too much mass to handle like an Indy car. Indy Circuit Indy cars are the thoroughbreds of auto racing-sleek lines, quick and streamlined power. Indy drivers are the best in the game-you'll have to be sharp to win this Circuit. Mario Andretti Racing Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Sprint Tips There are no gears in sprint cars, so don't worry about shifting-your gas and brake pedals are your only speed controls. Sprint cars drive 'loosely', since you're driving on dirt rather than asphalt. Expect to slide a lot around the corners. As you hit the turn, turn in and brake. As you tap A to brake, the rear end of the car slides around. When the rear slides out, counter-steer (steer toward the outside of the turn) to keep the car from spinning. Maintain a power slide until you hit the apex (i.e., the center) of the turn, and then hit full throttle to give you as much speed coming out of the turn as possible. There's a fine line between carrying as much speed as possible through a turn and spinning out. To succeed, drive as close to that line as possible-sprint races are won and lost in the turns. Stock Tips You'll have to pit at least once in most stock races, so keep track of your Tire and Fuel bars. Stock racing is volatile in nature, and cars sometimes bump, spin, and cause multi-car crashes. One spinout can take you right of contention, so drive carefully in traffic. Drafting is very important in stock racing. As you approach the car in front of you, your speed increases. Get as close as possible, and then use the extra speed to slingshot by. Be very careful when you're approaching a turn while drafting-the extra speed can send you right into the wall. You can make it around gradual turns without braking in some cases. However, if you try to change your line in midturn, you may slide and/or spin. Stock cars have a tendency to jump around from side to side on the track, so don't get too close to the wall. The best way to control your position on the track during turns is by pulsing the brake and accelerator buttons. The faster you go, the higher your position in the turn. When you get too close to the wall, pulse the accelerator rather than holding it down constantly. When you need to scrub off even more speed, let up on the accelerator and pulse the brake. Indy Tips If you start to slide, let up on the accelerator and try to counter-steer (i.e., turn in the direction that you're skidding so you can regain control). There's no guarantee you still won't spin, but you'll improve your chances of staying in command of the car. You can carry the most speed through a turn by starting on the outside of the track, cutting in to the inside edge at the apex (i.e., center of the turn), and then letting your speed carry you back toward the outside of the track. By driving this kind of line, you 'straighten out' the turn, reducing the sideways stress on the tires and enabling you to drive faster without spinning out. When you're driving through an S-turn or chicane, you have to consider the next turn as well as the current turn. If you know the track layout, you can prepare for the coming turn as you navigate the current turn.

Blocks that have pictures of different items on them fall in clumps of three from the top of the game area. Some are in straight lines, while others are in an L shape. The way to win items it to line up at least three identical blocks up and down, across or diagonally. If you can do this three times, the item is yours. You can rotate a clump of blocks as it falls. Press Button B to turn it counter-clockwise, and Button C to rotate it clockwise. The D-Pad can be used to move the clump left or right in the game area. On the left side of the screen are five rectangular boxes. Each block in the boxes shows how many groups of three you've gotten so far. Then next group of blocks to fall is shown in the box at the top right of the screen (the word Next appears beneath it). Skulls will appear in some of the groups of blocks. Try to keep them out of the way. They aren't dangerous, but they might keep you from winning an item. The game ends when the game area fills up with blocks, and no more can fit. You can choose to play again if you have enough Golds.

Without the special spirit power to protect it, Bomber Planet was thrown off balance and split into five pieces. But wait! All is not lost! Bomberman has arrived to restore the Spirit Pictures and reassemble Bomber Planet! It won't be easy-the pieces of Bomber Planet are crawling with Bagulaa's robot minions and animals who've been brainwashed into helping the invaders.

With it's Mach 2+ top speed, amazing maneuverability, and awesome weaponry, the MiG-29 is arguably the world's best fighter aircraft. Until now, it was locked behind the Iron Curtain, inaccessible to anyone but a few elite Soviet pilots. Now with the Cold War over, the MiG- 29 is ready to fly - this time under your command when you play this superb advanced flight simulator! Start with the training flight which will teach you how to take off, fly, bank, fire, and land. Then launch into five increasingly dangerous and explosive combat missions in the Middle East. Everything about MiG-29 Fighter Pilot makes you feel like you're flying the real thing - with actual flight instruments and avionics. Feel your stomach sink as you make a high-g roll. Feel your face pulled back when you kick in the afterburners and your hands tremble as you fire air-to-air missiles, air-to-ground rockets and powerful cannons at enemy fighters, tanks and other targets. The question is: Can your heart stand all this excitement? Mig-29 Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text D-Pad: This is your flight stick. In an aircraft the nose of the plane is controlled with the stick. Pulling back on the stick (pushing down on the pad) brings the nose of the aircraft up, gaining altitude Pushing forward on the stick (pushing up on the pad) lowers the aircraft's nose, losing altitude. Right and Left bank the aircraft's wings. To turn right or left, bank the aircraft right or left and then push down on the pad. This will swing the aircraft around quickly. A Button: This is the action button. Hold the A Button down and push Up or Down on the control pad to adjust your engine power. Highlight a menu item and press A to select that item. Tap A with a target in sight (and a weapon selected) to fire. B Button: Pressing this button pauses the game and brings up the Weapon Select menu. Choose your weapon by highlighting it and pressing A. Selecting the same weapon you already have selected will choose the next available target for that weapon. C Button: Pressing this button brings up the Flight Systems menu. Highlight an item and press A to select it. Pressing C again will not select the item, but closes the menu. The following list shows what each item does and when to use it: WHEELS: Lifts the wheels of the MiG into the aircraft, greatly enhancing maneuverability. Use right after takeoff. W. BRAKES: Locks the wheels so they slow the MiG down on the ground. You don't have to release them to take off, but it helps. A. BRAKES: Slows the MiG down quickly when flying. DROP CHAFF/DROP FLARES: This drops a countermeasure from the tail of the aircraft distracting enemy missiles. Use after they launch a missile at you. AUTOSTAB: Automatically levels the aircraft. Use this if you lose control or bearing. RADAR RANGE: Adjusts the range at which the radar scans. Longer range shows more, but is harder to tell exactly where the targets are. NEXT WAYPOINT: This selects the next navigational marker. Waypoints generally mark targets or landmarks. AUTO REFUEL: Selecting this when near the VC-10 automatically links your aircraft up for refueling. AUTO LAND: Select this when you are near a friendly airfield. This will automatically land the aircraft for refueling and re-arming. MAP: Brings up a map of the area. B button will show you your mission waypoints and A will bring you back to the aircraft. MISSION INFO: Selecting this will show you what your mission objectives are. Complete these (they will dim when completed) and land at a friendly airfield to go on to the next mission. EJECT: Select this to save yourself from a doomed aircraft. START Button: This button brings up the Views menu. Panel removes the panel and gives you a larger view of the world. Tower View gives you a view of your aircraft from a major landmark. Missile view is a camera located on the nose of the aircraft, and can only be accessed when a missile is in the air. Mig-29 Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Takeoff by holding A and pushing up on the control pad to increase engine power. When you reach 250 knots (shown in the upper right of the HUD), pull back and ease into the air. Bring up your landing gear, and then bring down your engine power (hold A and push down on the pad) until the red bars in the engine power display are gone. This shuts off the afterburner (giving you enough fuel to complete the mission). Targets can be selected by first choosing a weapon (holding B and selecting a weapon type) and then getting a target lock. A white square around the target means minimal lock. Firing the weapon now has only a 30 percent chance of hitting the target. Wait until the target gets within weapon range and the square will turn red, meaning a 95 percent chance to kill the target if you fire now. To select a different target tap B and the computer will select the next available target for that weapon. Remember that AA missiles are Air- to-Air, and AS are Air-to-Surface missiles. These missile types are FAR more reliable than rockets, so deplete your aircraft of rockets at the beginning and load up a couple extra short range AA missiles. This will help you in the air as the enemy has a near endless supply of aircraft to throw at you. Watch your compass on the HUD (the strip of numbers scrolling at the top). A red mark will show you where your target is located. Once you've destroyed your objective at that mark Select Next Waypoint and repeat the process. Use Autoland when you are over the airport. This will help beginners re-arm and refuel their aircraft easily. *** ALL MISSION PASSWORD *** This password will allow you to play any of the missions: WEXBJOISGIITES

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME SECRET CODES THE WARRIORS BROWSE HELP FILES Mortal Kombat 3 Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text The Shaolin Tournament for Martial Arts, better known as Mortal Kombat was, for countless ages, a noble institution that tested the mettle of the very best Warriors. Years ago the Tournament was corrupted by the evil Sorcerer Shang Tsung who dared to take not only the lives of his opponents, but their very souls. Eventually it became known that Shang Tsung was acting at the behest of his diabolical master Shao Kahn, Emperor of the Outworld, who planned to claim all the souls on Earth. The Champions of Earth: Liu Kang, Kung Lao, their Ancestors and others have, so far, thwarted this plan. For centuries Earth has used Mortal Kombat to defend itself against the Outworld's Emperor, Shao Kahn. But Kahn grows frustrated by failed attempts to take Earth through Tournament battle. He enacts a plan which began 10,000 years ago. During that time Shao Kahn had a Queen. Her name was Sindel, and her early death was unexpected. Kahn's Shadow Priests, led by Shang Tsung, made it so Sindel's spirit would someday be reborn: not on the Outworld, but on the Earth Realm itself. This evil act gives Shao Kahn the power to step through the dimensional gates and reclaim his Queen, thus enabling him to finally seize the Earth Realm. Upon breaching the portal into Earth, Shao Kahn slowly transforms the planet into a part of the Outworld. He strips the Earth of all human life; claiming every soul as his own. But there are souls which Kahn cannot take. These souls belong to the Warriors chosen to represent Earth in a new Mortal Kombat. The remaining humans are scattered throughout the planet. Shao Kahn sends an army of fierce Outworld Warriors to find and eliminate them. Some of Earth's Warriors survive the attacks. Most do not, but the remaining few hold the one chance at saving all of human kind. Mortal Kombat 3 Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text 6 Button Controller Button A: * Low Punch Button B: * Block Button C: * Low Kick Button X: * High Punch Button Y: * Run Button Z: * High Kick D-Pad: * Makes Warrior move, jump, crouch 3 Button Controller Button A: * Low Punch Button A + B: * High Punch Button B: * Block Button C: * Low Kick Button B + C: * High Kick Start: * Run D-Pad: * Makes Warrior move, jump, crouch BASIC MOVES The best way to begin your training is with the fundamental moves: Kicks, Punches, Crouches, Jumps and Blocks. These moves may seem trivial compared to powerful and acrobatic moves like the Flying Kick. However, knowing how to stop, avoid or counteract a Flying Kick can be far more useful than knowing how to land one yourself. The Y Button (Run) is especially powerful. No longer can a foe hide by backing off. Hold the Y Button while pressing Forward on the Control Pad. Combined, these fundamentals are the foundation for both a strong defense and a potent offense. CLOSE QUARTERS Additional moves used during close-in Kombat situations are the Knee and the Throw. They are highly effective, and do not require full limb extension which is impossible in close quarters. Although these moves are potent, they can be used only when directly adjacent to an opponent. NOTE: Pressing the Attack Buttons in a certain sequence will result in different "Combos" for different players. SPECIAL MOVES All of the Mortal Kombat Warriors possess expert fighting skills-in that respect, they are equal to thousands of other warriors around the globe. What raises them above their peers are the special moves which they have created and perfected. In order to become a superior warrior, skilled enough to win the title of Grand Champion, you too must learn these moves, because these moves, whether special kicks or elemental bolts, make the Mortal Kombat warriors the fiercest and most ferocious kombatants on Earth. Mastering their special moves will make you the same. CROUCHING MOVES Defensively, the crouching moves allow one to avoid punches and aerial weapons, to escape from close proximity and to avoid being thrown. Offensively, the uppercut, executed from the crouch is one of the most powerful offensive weapons in a Warrior's arsenal. To do the crouching moves, hold the Control Pad down and simultaneously push Z or C for a Crouching Kick. Hold the Control Pad down and push X for an Uppercut. The Block can always be used to defend against your opponent's moves. SPINNING MOVES The spin is the key to such exotic moves as the Roundhouse Kick and the Foot Sweep. The Foot Sweep hits your opponent's ankles and knocks him onto his back. The Roundhouse is a spinning kick which strikes your opponent in the face. To execute the spin moves, hold the Control Pad away from your opponent while you press the Kick buttons. AERIAL MOVES The final moves one should learn are the Aerial moves-Flying Punches and Kicks. To execute these moves, either jump in place or go towards your opponent, then press the Attack Buttons while in the air. However, unlike most attacks, aerial attacks must be timed properly to land blows. Mortal Kombat 3 Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text FIGHTING SUMMARY The Tournament first tests a Warrior's fighting skill by pitting him against other tournament challengers. In all Mortal Kombat battles, meters in the upper part of the screen measure the health of each Warrior. The meters begin each round indicating the Warrior's complete health, but are reduced with each blow taken. The amount of the reduction depends both on the type of hit and whether or not it was blocked. When a Warrior's health meter runs out, he/she is knocked out and the round goes to the opponent. Should time run out before either Kombatant is knocked out, the Warrior with fewer injuries is declared the victor. The first warrior to win two rounds takes the match and moves on to the next opponent. Mortal Kombat 3 Secret Codes Use Up/Down to scroll text At the bottom of the VS BATTLE Screen you will see a row of six boxes with different Dragon Icons in them. Player 1 can change the symbols in the first three boxes by pressing his/her Low Punch, Block and Low Kick Buttons. Player 2 can do the same with the other three symbols. The six symbols represent secret codes which can have subtle or dramatic effects on game play. Each button causes the symbol in the corresponding box to change to the next icon in a predetermined order. If you hold up while pressing A, B, or C, the order in which the Icons are cycled will be reversed. For example, pressing the Player 1 Low Punch Button once will change the Dragon Icon in the first box into a "MK" symbol; pressing it a second time will change it to the third icon in the sequence and so on. Pressing a button more than nine times will cause the order of the icons to start over. In other words, pressing a button that corresponds to a box with a Skull symbol will change the Skull back to the original Dragon Icon. Mortal Kombat 3 The Warriors Use Up/Down to scroll text Cyrax Cyrax is Unit LK4D4, the second of three prototype Cybernetic Ninjas built by the Lin Kuei. Like his counterparts, Cyrax's last programmed command is to find and terminate the rogue Ninja Sub-Zero. Without a soul, Cyrax goes undetected by Shao Kahn and remains a possible threat against his occupation of Earth. Jax After failing to convince his superiors of the coming Outworld menace, Jax begins to covertly prepare for future battle with Kahn's minions. He outfits both arms with indestructible bionic implants. This is a war that Jax is prepared to win. Kabal As a Chosen Warrior, his identity is a mystery to all. It's believed that he is the survivor of an attack by Shao Kahn's extermination squads. As a result, he is viciously scarred and kept alive only by artificial respirators and a rage for ending Shao Kahn's conquest. Kano Kano is thought to have been killed in the first Tournament. Instead, he's found alive in the Outworld where he once again escapes capture by Sonya. Before the actual Outworld invasion, Kano convinces Shao Kahn to spare his soul. Kahn needs someone to teach his Warriors how to use Earth's weapons. And Kano is the man to do it. Kung Lao After avenging the death of his great ancestor by emerging Supreme Champion against all Outworld opponents, Kung Lao returns to Earth to train a new generation of Shaolin alongside Liu Kang. But Lao's greatest challenges lie ahead, fighting for those who cannot defend themselves against Shao Kahn's treachery. Liu Kang After the Outworld invasion, Liu Kang finds himself the prime target of Kahn's extermination squads. He is the Shaolin Champion and has thwarted Kahn's schemes in the past. Of all the humans, Kang poses the greatest threat to Shao Kahn's rule. Shang Tsung Shang Tsung is Shao Kahn's lead Sorcerer. He once fell out of favor with his Emperor after failing to win the Earth Realm through Tournament Battle. But the ever-scheming Shang Tsung is instrumental in Kahn's conquest of Earth. He has now been granted more power than ever. Nightwolf He works as a historian and preserver of his people's culture. When Kahn's portal opens over North America, Nightwolf uses the magic of his Shamen to protect his tribe's sacred land. This area becomes a vital threat to Kahn's occupation of the Earth. Sheeva She was hand-picked by Shao Kahn to serve as Sindel's personal protector. However, she becomes suspicious of Shao Kahn's loyalty towards her race of Shokan when he places Motaro as the leader of his extermination squads. On the Outworld, Motaro's race of Centaurians are the natural enemy of the Shokan. Sektor Sektor is actually the code name for Unit LK9T9. He was the first of three prototype Cybernetic Ninjas built by the Lin Kuei. Sektor was once a human assassin trained by the Lin Kuei. He volunteered for automation because of his loyalty to the Clan. Sektor survives the Outworld invasion...he has no soul to take. Sindel She once ruled the Outworld at Shao Kahn's side as his Queen. Now, 10,000 years after her untimely death, she is reborn on Earth. Her evil intent is every match for Shao Kahn's tyranny. She is the key to his occupation of Earth. Stryker When the Outworld portal opens over a large city in North America, panic and chaos rage out of control. Kurtis Stryker was the leader of a riot control brigade when Shao Kahn began taking souls. He finds himself the lone survivor of a city once populated by millions. Sonya Sonya Blade disappears in the first tournament, but is later rescued from the Outworld by Jax. After returning to Earth, she and Jax try to warn the U.S. Government of the looming Outworld menace. Lacking proof, they watch helplessly as Shao Kahn begins his invasion. Sub-Zero The Ninja returns unmasked. He was betrayed by his own Ninja clan, the Lin Kuei. He broke the sacred Codes of Honor by leaving the Clan and is marked for death. But unlike the Ninja of old, his pursuers come as machines. He must not only defend against the Outworld menace, but must also elude his soulless assassins. Smoke Third of the three prototype Cybernetic Ninjas, Smoke's unit designator was erased in a computer crash. Lost as he is to software control, no one can be sure that he will complete his ultimate programming, i.e., kill Sub-Zero. So, he is somewhat of a wild card in the tournament deck. (Secret Character) Motaro In the realm of the Outworld, Motaro's race of Centaurians has long since come into conflict with the Shokan. When Shao Kahn formed special extermination squads to eliminate the Chosen Warriors of Earth, Motaro was appointed to head this elite group of Savage Warriors. Shao Kahn Many decades ago, Shao Kahn rose to power in the Outworld, usurping the realm from Kitana's parents and taking Queen Sindel for his bride. But she died. Now, centuries later, Sindel is reborn. And since Shang Tsung failed to win the Earth Realm through Mortal Kombat I and II, her rebirth is the means by which Kahn will finally seize the planet forever unless...

THIS TEST DRIVE VERSION OF MORTAL KOMBAT 3 ONLY ALLOWS YOU TO PLAY WITH FOUR CHARACTERS. The Shaolin Tournament for Martial Arts, better known as Mortal Kombat was, for countless ages, a noble institution that tested the mettle of the very best Warriors. Years ago the Tournament was corrupted by the evil Sorcerer Shang Tsung who dared to take not only the lives of his opponents, but their very souls. Eventually it became known that Shang Tsung was acting at the behest of his diabolical master Shao Kahn, Emperor of the Outworld, who planned to claim all the souls on Earth. The Champions of Earth: Liu Kang, Kung Lao, their Ancestors and others have, so far, thwarted this plan. For centuries Earth has used Mortal Kombat to defend itself against the Outworld's Emperor, Shao Kahn. But Kahn grows frustrated by failed attempts to take Earth through Tournament battle. He enacts a plan which began 10,000 years ago. During that time Shao Kahn had a Queen. Her name was Sindel, and her early death was unexpected. Kahn's Shadow Priests, led by Shang Tsung, made it so Sindel's spirit would someday be reborn: not on the Outworld, but on the Earth Realm itself. This evil act gives Shao Kahn the power to step through the dimensional gates and reclaim his Queen, thus enabling him to finally seize the Earth Realm. Upon breaching the portal into Earth, Shao Kahn slowly transforms the planet into a part of the Outworld. He strips the Earth of all human life; claiming every soul as his own. But there are souls which Kahn cannot take. These souls belong to the Warriors chosen to represent Earth in a new Mortal Kombat. The remaining humans are scattered throughout the planet. Shao Kahn sends an army of fierce Outworld Warriors to find and eliminate them. Some of Earth's Warriors survive the attacks. Most do not, but the remaining few hold the one chance at saving all of human kind. Mortal Kombat 3 Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text ATTENTION!

These moves may seem trivial compared to powerful and acrobatic moves like the Flying Kick. However, knowing how to stop, avoid or counteract a Flying Kick can be far more useful than knowing how to land one yourself. The Y Button (Run) is especially powerful. No longer can a foe hide by backing off. Hold the Y Button while pressing Forward on the Control Pad. Combined, these fundamentals are the foundation for both a strong defense and a potent offense. CLOSE QUARTERS Additional moves used during close-in Kombat situations are the Knee and the Throw. They are highly effective, and do not require full limb extension which is impossible in close quarters. Although these moves are potent, they can be used only when directly adjacent to an opponent. NOTE: Pressing the Attack Buttons in a certain sequence will result in different "Combos" for different players. SPECIAL MOVES All of the Mortal Kombat Warriors possess expert fighting skills-in that respect, they are equal to thousands of other warriors around the globe. What raises them above their peers are the special moves which they have created and perfected. In order to become a superior warrior, skilled enough to win the title of Grand Champion, you too must learn these moves, because these moves, whether special kicks or elemental bolts, make the Mortal Kombat warriors the fiercest and most ferocious kombatants on Earth. Mastering their special moves will make you the same. CROUCHING MOVES Defensively, the crouching moves allow one to avoid punches and aerial weapons, to escape from close proximity and to avoid being thrown. Offensively, the uppercut, executed from the crouch is one of the most powerful offensive weapons in a Warrior's arsenal. To do the crouching moves, hold the Control Pad down and simultaneously push Z or C for a Crouching Kick. Hold the Control Pad down and push X for an Uppercut. The Block can always be used to defend against your opponent's moves. SPINNING MOVES The spin is the key to such exotic moves as the Roundhouse Kick and the Foot Sweep. The Foot Sweep hits your opponent's ankles and knocks him onto his back. The Roundhouse is a spinning kick which strikes your opponent in the face. To execute the spin moves, hold the Control Pad away from your opponent while you press the Kick buttons. AERIAL MOVES The final moves one should learn are the Aerial moves-Flying Punches and Kicks. To execute these moves, either jump in place or go towards your opponent, then press the Attack Buttons while in the air. However, unlike most attacks, aerial attacks must be timed properly to land blows. Mortal Kombat 3 Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text ATTENTION! THIS TEST DRIVE VERSION OF MORTAL KOMBAT 3 ONLY ALLOWS YOU TO PLAY WITH FOUR CHARACTERS. FIGHTING SUMMARY The Tournament first tests a Warrior's fighting skill by pitting him against other tournament challengers. In all Mortal Kombat battles, meters in the upper part of the screen measure the health of each Warrior. The meters begin each round indicating the Warrior's complete health, but are reduced with each blow taken. The amount of the reduction depends both on the type of hit and whether or not it was blocked. When a Warrior's health meter runs out, he/she is knocked out and the round goes to the opponent. Should time run out before either Kombatant is knocked out, the Warrior with fewer injuries is declared the victor. The first warrior to win two rounds takes the match and moves on to the next opponent. Mortal Kombat 3 The Warriors Use Up/Down to scroll text ATTENTION!

Monopoly Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text COMPUTER OPPONENTS: Elizabeth: The grande dame of Newport society, she earned her money the old-fashioned way--she inherited it. Tough as a battleship, and approximately the same weight, she's a tough opponent. Jeeves: For years an esteemed butler, he retired to Monaco on his earnings from stock market tips overheard at the mansion. He is vedy, vedy British, and even more devious. Amanda: A former flapper, she is quick with her money. She has always wanted the finer things in life...like a mansion on Park Place. Paulie: Always the butt of accusations of wrong-doings merely because of his crony, Capone, Paulie is really a good boy; as he is quick to point out, "You can't prove nothin'." After trading with him, count your fingers! Gary Cant: A smooth, debonair actor, Gary still harkens back to his middle class roots. He can be had in a trade; just play on his childhood memories. Betty Sue: Elizabeth's private secretary, she pays great attention to detail but often misses the big picture. Billy Bob: A good ole boy, he acquired his business sense in wildcat oil fields. Unfortunately, this doesn't always translate too well in real estate deals. Mary Anne: Head of the Department of Underachieving Matrons (DUM), she is full of big words and small thoughts. Buying and Auctioning Properties: To Buy: When your token lands on an unowned piece of real estate--with a "For Sale" sign--press A to buy it immediately. If you need to raise money to buy it, see "Mortgage". To view all of that property's Title Deed card information, press C. To Auction: If you don't want to buy the property, press B to send it to auction, where all players may participate if they wish. The auctioneer will run the auction and determine what the bids will be. To bid, use the D-Pad to move back and forth from player to player and to up the ante; the auctioneer sets each new bid.

To buy: On the next screen, use the D-Pad to enter the number of Houses or Hotels you want to buy. Press A to select. Press C to exit. To sell: Do the same, but select the Sell option and press A. If you're selling a Hotel, it will first be "converted" back into four Houses, which will be sold off evenly. NOTE: If you purchased more than one House, the system will automatically put the first one on the property you're on, then distribute the others evenly among the properties in that color group. If Anyone Else Wants to Build: At this point, other players may jump in and purchase Houses or Hotels for their own properties by pressing the B Button. This is very important if there is a potential building shortage. Each player indicates how many he/she wants. If there is a shortage, the system automatically starts an auction for each available building. The auction follows the usual procedure; the highest bidder wins.

Accept: Once an acceptable deal is set up, move Rich Uncle to Accept and press A, or use the D-Pad to further modify the offer. When the deal is to everyone's liking, each player in turn presses A to accept. Refuse: To refuse, press C--No Deal! NOTE: You can set up the deal for what you want to receive in a trade as well as what you are willing to offer. This is especially important when dealing with computer opponents. Follow the same steps above. Deeds: To look at all the deeds on the board, including who owns what, and to see what a property is worth, press C to bring up the Main Menu. Then scroll to Deeds and press A to select it.

Monopoly Basic Rules Use Up/Down to scroll text These are the traditional and internationally accepted rules for the board game, plus certain tournament rules. The screen will indicate certain basic instructions as you proceed through a game. Object: To become the wealthiest player by buying, renting, and selling property. Preparation: Enter your name and pick a token on-screen. The system Banker automatically allots each player $1500 from the Bank and keeps track of all other equipment. Banker: The system will always act as Banker. The Bank: Besides its money, the Bank hold the Title Deed Cards and Houses and Hotels prior to purchase by the players. The Bank pays salaries and bonuses. The Bank sells and auctions properties and distributes their proper Title Deed cards, sells Houses and Hotels, and loans money when required on mortgages. The Bank collects all taxes, fines, loans and interest and will buy back Houses and Hotels (at half price). NOTE: All of these functions are performed automatically by the system. The Play: The system picks who goes first, and that player uses the A Button to "roll" the dice. The token is automatically moved that number of spaces along the board. After the play is completed, the turn passes to the next player. The tokens remain on the spaces occupied and proceed from that point on the player's next turn. One or more tokens may rest on the same space at the same time. Depending on which space your token reaches, you may be entitled to buy real estate or other properties, or obliged to pay rent, pay taxes, draw a Community Chest or Chance card, "Go to Jail," etc. If you throw doubles, move, then roll and move again. Go: Each time you land on or pass over "GO," the Bank pays you $200 "salary." This amount is added to your "account" and the new total automatically appears on-screen every time you begin your turn. Buying and Auctioning Property: Whenever you land on an unowned property, you may buy it from the Bank at its displayed price. If you don't want it, it will be auctioned, and the Banker will sell it to the highest bidder. Paying Rent: Whenever you land on property owned by another player, the owner "collects" rent from you in accordance with the information displayed on its Title Deed card. The system handles the whole transaction. If the property is mortgaged, no rent can be collected. It is an advantage to hold all Title Deeds in a color group (e.g. Boardwalk and Park Place) because the owner may then charge double rent for unimproved properties in that group. This rule applies to un-mortgaged properties even if another property in that color group is mortgaged. It is an even greater advantage to have Houses or Hotels on properties, because rents are much higher than for unimproved properties. Chance and Community Chest: Whenever you land on either of these spaces, the system gives instructions to follow--and automatically makes the appropriate move or handles any monetary transaction. Press A to proceed. The "Get Out of Jail Free" card is held in a player's "account"--and will show on his Assets screen--until needed. To use it, press Select. After being used, it is "returned" to the "pack." Income Tax: When you land on "Income Tax" you have two options: Estimate your tax at $200 and pay the Bank, or pay 10 percent of your total worth to the Bank. Your total worth is all your cash on hand, printed prices of mortgaged and un-mortgaged properties, and the cost price of all buildings you own. You must decide which option you want before you add up your total worth. Jail: You land in Jail when... 1) Your token lands on the "Go To Jail" space OR 2) You are allocated a card marked "Go To Jail," OR 3) You throw doubles three times in succession. If you are sent to Jail, you cannot collect $200 salary on that move since, regardless of where your token is on the board, you must go directly to Jail. Your turn ends when you're sent to Jail. If you are not sent to Jail but, in the ordinary course of play, you land on that space, you are "Just Visiting," you incur no penalty, and you move ahead in the usual manner on your next turn. You can get out of Jail if you... 1) Throw double on any of your next three turns; if you succeed in doing this, immediately move forward the number of spaces shown by your doubles throw. Even though you have thrown doubles, you do not take another turn, OR 2) Use a "Get Out of Jail Free" card if you have one, OR 3) Pay a fine of $50 before you throw the dice on either of your next two turns. If you do not throw doubles by your third turn, you must pay the $50 fine. You then get out of Jail and immediately move forward the number of spaces shown by your throw. Even when in Jail, you may buy or sell property, buy or sell buildings and collect rents. Free Parking: A player who lands on this space does not receive any money, property or reward of any kind. This is just a "free" resting place. Houses: When you own all the properties in a color group, you may buy Houses from the Bank and erect them evenly on those properties. If you buy one House, you may put it on any one property. The next House you buy must be erected on one of the unimproved properties of this or any other complete color group you may own. The price you pay the Bank for each House is shown on the Title Deed card for the property on which you erect the House. As owner, you can still collect double rent from any opponent who lands on the unimproved properties of your complete color group. You may buy and erect at any time as many Houses as your judgement and finances will allow. But you must build evenly, i.e. you cannot erect more than one House on any one property of any color group until you have built one House on every property of that group. You may then begin on the second row of Houses, and so on, up to a limit of four to a property. For example, you cannot build three Houses on one property if you have only one House on another property of that group. As you build evenly, you must also break down evenly if you sell Houses back to the Bank. Hotels: When you have four Houses on each property of a complete color group, you may buy a Hotel from the Bank and erect it on any property of that color group. The four Houses from that property are returned to the Bank, and you pay the price for the Hotel as shown on the screen. Only one Hotel may be erected on any one property. Building Shortage: When the Bank has no more Houses to sell, players wishing to build must wait for some player to turn back or sell Houses to the Bank before building. If there are a limited number of Houses and Hotels available and two or more players wish to buy more than the Bank has, the Houses or Hotels must be sold by auction to the highest bidder. Hotels take priority over Houses when bought or auctioned. Selling Property: Unimproved properties, railroads and utilities (but not buildings) may be sold to any player as a private transaction for any amount the owner can get. However, no property can be sold to another player if buildings are standing on any properties of that color group. Any buildings so located must be sold back to the Bank before the owner can sell any property of that color group. Houses and Hotels may be sold back to the Bank at any time for one half the price paid for them. All Houses on one color group may be sold one by one, evenly, in reverse of the manner in which they were erected. All Hotels on one color group may be sold at once or they may be sold one House at a time, evenly, in the reverse of the manner in which they were erected. Mortgages: Unimproved properties can be mortgaged through the Bank at any time. Before an improved property can be mortgaged, all the buildings on all the properties of its color group must be sold back to the Bank at half price. The mortgage value is displayed on each Title Deed card. No rent can be collected on the mortgaged properties or utilities, but rent can be collected on un-mortgaged properties in the same group. In order to lift the mortgage, you must pay the Bank the amount of the mortgage plus 10 percent interest. When all the properties of a color group are no longer mortgaged, you may begin to buy back Houses at full price. The player who mortgages property retains possession of it, and no other player may secure it by lifting the mortgage from the Bank. However, you may sell this mortgaged property to another player at any agreed price. The new owner has the option of lifting the mortgage at once by paying off the mortgage plus 10 percent interest to the Bank. If the new owner does not lift the mortgage at once, he/she must pay the Bank 10 percent interest upon buying the property, and if the mortgage is lifted later, must pay an additional 10 percent interest as well as the amount of the mortgage to the Bank. Bankruptcy: You are bankrupt when you own more than you can pay either to another player or to the Bank. If your debt is to another player, you turn over to that player all that you have of value and retire from the game. In the making of this settlement, if you own Houses or Hotels, you must return these to the Bank in exchange for one half the amount of money paid for them. This cash is given to the creditor. If you have mortgaged property, you also turn this property over to your creditor, but the new owner must at once pay the Bank the amount of interest on the loan, which is 10 percent of the value of the property. It is possible for the player collecting the debt to go bankrupt if the 10 percent cannot be paid. After paying up, the new owner may, at his/her option, pay the principal or hold the property until some later turn, at which time the mortgage may be lifted. Should you owe the Bank, instead of another player, more than you can pay (because of taxes or penalties) even by selling your buildings and mortgaging property, you must turn over all your assets to the Bank. The Bank immediately sells by auction all property so taken, except buildings. A bankrupt player must immediately retire from the game. The last player left in the game wins. Miscellaneous: Money can be loaned to a player only by the Bank, and then only by mortgaging property.

Climb raging waterfalls and blast your way through the dense vegetation to reach his unholy throne of bones, built from the skeletons of his numerous victims. MERCURY-The hottest planet(closest to the sun), is the new domain of Semal-the Dark Lord of Spite. Reeking with fetid pools of lava and dripping death from above, the terrain of Mercury is even more dangerous than Venus Semal wields incredible powers that your mere guns and rockets cannot crush. You must find a way to defeat him... PLUTO-Going from the extremes of heat to the depths of cold, you now grace the planet furthest from the sun. Pluto is known for a chilly reception.

THE DOOMTROOPERS Mitch Hunter Planning to use it as a springboard to the world of high finance, Mitch signed on with the Capitol elite forces for a couple of years. Nine years passed, and the impact on the world Mitch wanted to make with a suit and tie is being made with battle armor instead. Mitch has an extreme personal code of honor and will refuse to do anything that conflicts with it. He is very charismatic, and almost always gets his way(even if his commanders don't always approve). Maximillian "Max" Steiner The son of an aristocratic Bauhaus family, he joined the air cavalry at an early age. He gained fame as one of the finest helo-pilots, but a scandal grounded him. He has earned just as strong a reputation on the ground as he had in the air. Both his background and demeanor are noble. Though not preachy about it, Max would never break a promise or the unwritten codes of combat. He is one of those people you instantly respect, a natural leader. THE FORCES OF THE DARK LEGION Legionnaire The Legionnaires make up the bulk of the Dark Legion's forces. They are the reanimated human dead of the battlefield, brought back to life by necro-technology. Their ghoulish twisted grins and glowing eyes are enough to strike fear into any soldier's heart. Their equipment and armor are the plunder of combat. The legionnaires are mindless zombies that act without any will of their own. They are slaves to the will of a commanding Nepharite or Dark Legion superior. Necromutant Necromutants are warriors transformed by the twisted science of the Dark Legion. Their bodies are perfectly adapted to combat. They are massively built, with broad shoulders and muscular arms. Their skin is the color of soot and their eyes are expressionless wells of darkness. Their veins pulsate with an unholy glow. Necromutants are the commanding officers of the Dark Legion. Followed by hordes of Legionnaires, they will fearlessly assault even the strongest fortifications. Razide A Razide is a hybrid collection of flesh, iron and stone. Unearthly organs connected by endless tubes pump dark liquids through the Razide's muscular body and send ripples across the skin. Razides tower over an average person and can crush stone with their bare hands. The Razide is a beast from another time and existence, impossibly strong and given a constitution beyond any man's. Under the command of a Nepharite or Centurion, Razides are the Dark Legion's support troops and fire power. Centurion Centurions are the special forces of the Dark Legion. They physically resemble Necromutants, but they often carry better weapons and equipment. Centurions are a superior form of Necromutant, a little more intelligent and imaginative. Their combat abilities are also better, and they are often used for special missions as well as commanding troops.

Elles ne vont pas bien vite, mais leurs tailles et leurs forces en font de bons joueurs de dÈfense. Robots ´Agiles mais fragilesª, voil‡ ce qu'en disent gÈnÈralement les recruteurs. Ils sont rapides et prÈcis, mais incapables de rÈsister aux coups. Trop de corps corps, ils ne sont plus bons que pour la ferraille. Squelettes Presque aussi rapides que les robots mais encore plus mÈchants. Ils n'ont pas peur des coups puisqu'ils sont dÈj‡ morts! POSITIONS DES JOUEURS Centre Ailier gauche Ailier droit DÈfenseur gauche DÈfenseur droit Gardien de but …CHELLE DE SANT… Lorsque l'option de rÈserve a ÈtÈ activÈe, on peut vÈrifier la santÈ d'un joueur gr‚ce ‡ l'Èchelle de santÈ. Il s'agit de la ligne jaune qui apparaÓt sous le joueur contrÙlÈ. On peut Ègalement vÈrifier la santÈ d'un joueur en activant son nom dans l'Ècran des rÈserves. Dans cet Ècran, l'image du joueur et son Èchelle de santÈ apparaissent ‡ gauche. Si le joueur n'a aucune Èchelle de santÈ, envoyez-le se reposer. Quand un joueur sur la glace voit sa santÈ diminuer, l'Èchelle passe du jaune au rouge. Plus elle est rouge, plus le joueur est prÍt ‡ rendre l'‚me. L'ARBITRE L'arbitre apparaÓt aprËs une faute. MÍme s'il peut dÈnoncer les infractions, il ne vaut guËre mieux que les autres puisqu'on peut l'acheter ou le tuer. L'ORGANISTE L'organiste est le gÈnie malin de ´Mutant League Hockeyª. Il apparaÓt pour lancer la rondelle lors des mises au jeu. GLYNDA ´Glynda Zamboniª est un Ènorme monstre en forme d'insecte qui ne pense qu'‡ manger. Elle rampe sur la glace entre les pÈriodes et pendant les temps d'arrÍt. Elle aspire les morceaux de chair des joueurs et autres bonnes choses. ´Crudy Candyª, premiËre dame de ´Mutant League Hockeyª, chevauche la ´Zamboniª pendant ses raids alimentaires. MISE AU JEU La mise au jeu se produit au dÈbut d'une pÈriode ou d'une partie: si la rondelle quitte la patinoire ou explose, pendant un jeu excitant ou aprËs un but, une bagarre ou une infraction: L'organiste fait tomber la rondelle pour commencer un jeu. Lorsque la rondelle tombe sur la glace, elle prend vie et on peut la capturer. Les centres de chaque Èquipe tentent d'attraper la rondelle en se dirigeant vers le but adverse. Il y a trois faÁons d'attraper la rondelle lors de la mise au jeu: - Appuyez sur B pour passer la rondelle ‡ un co-Èquipier. - DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers la rondelle et tenter de l'attraper. - Appuyez sur A pour donner un coup de poing au centre adverse et le dÈsÈquilibrer lors de la mise au jeu. Certains centres sont plus coriaces et habiles que d'autres. Soyez bien conscient des forces et faiblesses de votre centre pour bien l'utiliser pendant la remise en jeu. PATINER Les commandes de patinage demeurent les mÍmes qu'on soit en attaque ou en dÈfense. DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers la direction o˘ vous voulez faire patiner votre joueur. Pour arrÍter un joueur rapidement, dÈplacez le bouton directionnel dans la direction contraire prise par celui-ci. Par exemple: si le joueur patine vers la gauche, dÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers la droite pour l'arrÍter. SAUTS AUTOMATIQUES Pour faire sauter un joueur par-dessus un obstacle, rel‚chez le bouton directionnel tout juste avant que celui-ci ne l'atteigne et il sautera automatiquement. PASSES 1. DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers la direction o˘ vous voulez diriger la rondelle. 2. Appuyez une fois sur B pour passer la rondelle. 3. Si vous arrivez ‡ passer la rondelle ‡ un joueur contrÙlÈ par l'ordinateur, celui-ci devient le porteur de rondelle et c'est vous qui prenez automatiquement le contrÙle de ce joueur. 4. Si vous ratez votre passe, la rondelle est libre et les deux Èquipes peuvent l'attraper. Vous pouvez choisir un autre joueur et le diriger manuellement vers la rondelle. Appuyez sur B pour choisir le joueur le plus pr s de la rondelle. Si vous oubliez un obstacle lorsque vous vous approchez et qu'il tente de faire une passe. Lorsqu'une rondelle touche un obstacle en fin de course, elle rebondit dans tous les sens.. L‚cher la rondelle Le porteur de rondelle peut l‚cher la rondelle et permettre ‡ un co-Èquipier d'en prendre possession. Pour ce, gardez B enfoncÈ. PASSES ENTRE CO-…QUIPIERS 1. DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers le co-Èquipier qui doit recevoir la passe. 2. Appuyez sur B pour passer la rondelle. Si vous rÈussissez, votre co-Èquipier devient le porteur de rondelle jusqu'‡ ce qu'il fasse une passe, essaye de marquer un but ou perde la rondelle. ATTAQUE Vous contrÙlez le joueur qui patine sur des os entrecroisÈs. Si c'est lui qui a la rondelle, il est Ègalement dotÈ d'un cercle. Vous contrÙlez le joueur en possession de la rondelle lorsque vous jouez en attaque. ATTAQUE ¿ PLUSIEURS Dans une partie ‡ deux co-Èquipiers, un joueur contrÙle la rondelle, et l'autre joueur attaquant est dotÈ des mÍmes commandes qu'un dÈfenseur. Pointage On peut compter deux types de buts dans ´Mutant League Hockeyª. Buts ‡ un point : Un but normal vaut un point. Buts ‡ deux points : Un but marquÈ derriËre la ligne bleue vaut deux points. La ligne bleue se trouve entre la ligne de but et la ligne centrale. Elle dÈlimite la surface d'attaque pour l'Èquipe en possession de la rondelle. Nota : Si vous marquez un but dans votre propre filet, nous ne vous humilierons pas en identifiant votre joueur ‡ l'Ècran de pointage. LANCER ContrÙler un lancer Les filets comportent neuf zones o˘ on peut viser pour lancer la rondelle. DÈplacez le bouton directionnel dans n'importe quelle direction pour viser l'une de ces zones. Par exemple: dÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers la droite pour viser le cÙtÈ droit du filet. Si le bouton directionnel est centrÈ au moment du lancer, la rondelle glisse vers le centre du but. DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers le haut pour un lancer haut, ou vers le bas pour un lancer bas. Types de lancer Il existe deux types de lancer : le lancer du poignet et le lancer frappÈ. Les lancers du poignet sont lents mais prÈcis. Ils sont plus efficaces prËs du but. Appuyez sur C rapidement pour un lancer du poignet. Les lancers frappÈs sont plus rapides mais moins efficaces. Ils sont plus efficaces vers l'arriËre de la zone d'attaque. Gardez C enfoncÈ pour un lancer frappÈ. Nota : Si la rondelle est lancÈe hors de la patinoire (dans la foule ou au fond d'un trou dans la glace) il y aura une nouvelle mise au jeu. UNE-DEUX Un une dans deux peut se faire entre deux co-Èquipiers : le joueur A, muni de la rondelle, la passe au joueur B qui la laisse rebondir sur son b‚ton dans le but de marquer un but sans en prendre possession. C'est une manoeuvre puissante, alors servez-vous en souvent. Pour faire une passe, appuyez sur B; dËs que le joueur a passÈ la rondelle, appuyez sur C. Lorsque deux joueurs dirigent une Èquipe, celui qui reÁoit la passe peut appuyer sur C pour compter le but. D…FENSE Changer de dÈfenseurs Pour changer le contrÙle du dÈfenseur le plus proche de la rondelle, appuyez sur le bouton B. Changer de dÈfenseurs entre co-Èquipiers Pour changer le contrÙle du dÈfenseur le plus proche de la rondelle, appuyez sur B. Le premier co-Èquipier ‡ appuyer sur B devient le joueur le plus prËs de la rondelle. Utiliser des armes Lorsque le joueur contrÙlÈ porte des armes, appuyez sur A pour les utiliser. Pour ramasser une arme qui traÓne sur la glace, patinez dessus. AccÈlÈration Si le dÈfenseur contrÙlÈ ne patine pas prËs d'autres joueurs, appuyez une fois sur C pour lui donner un surcroÓt de vitesse lui permettant de rattraper les autres. Mise en Èchec Si votre dÈfenseur est prËs d'un adversaire, appuyez sur C pour mettre ce dernier en Èchec. Il existe deux types de mises en Èchec automatique : Èpaule contre Èpaule ou obstruction corporelle. La technique adoptÈe dÈpend de la position de votre dÈfenseur par rapport ‡ l'adversaire. S'il lui fait face, il le pousse. S'il est ‡ cÙtÈ de lui, il le met en Èchec avec ses Èpaules. GARDIENS DE BUT Surface de but Le demi-cercle tracÈ devant chaque but s'appelle la surface de but. ContrÙle du gardien de but sans la rondelle Pour choisir votre gardien de but, s'il est le dÈfenseur le plus prËs de la rondelle, appuyez sur B. Pour bloquer un lancer au but, appuyez sur A. Pour cingler des opposants ‡ l'intÈrieur de la ligne de but, appuyez sur C. Pour dÈplacer le gardien de but derriËre la ligne de but, dÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers la direction o˘ vous voulez qu'il patine. Nota : Un gardien de but peut garder la rondelle s'il ne peut pas la remettre en jeu correctement. Dans ce cas, on arrÍte le jeu et il y a une mise au jeu. BAGARRES Les bagarres Èclatent au hasard au cours du match, mais surtout lorsqu'un exÈcuteur est sur la glace.Deux joueurs seulement peuvent se bagarrer ‡ la fois. Lorsqu'une bagarre commence, on passe ‡ l'Ècran des bagarres. L'Ècran montre les combattants face ‡ face ou de cÙtÈ. Toutes les bagarres ont une durÈe limitÈe. Elles peuvent se terminer de trois faÁons : DÈcision : Un des combattants est dÈclarÈ gagnant si la bagarre dure pendant le temps imparti. Knockout : Si l'un des combattants est mis hors combat, assommÈ ou est incapable de continuer la bagarre. Match nul : Les deux combattants ont assenÈ le mÍme nombre de coups ‡ l'expiration du dÈlai. Aucun ne gagne. COMMANDES DES BAGARRES Appuyez sur B ou sur C pour donner un coup de poing. Appuyez sur A pour bloquer un coup de poing. DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers la droite ou vers la gauche pour dÈplacer votre combattant. Si l'option de punition est activÈe, les deux combattants sont punis aprËs la bagarre. Toutefois, le perdant passe plus de temps sur le banc de punition. Fiche des bagarres AprËs une bagarre, une fiche apparait et donne une description rapide en indiquant le nombre de coups donnÈs et reÁus ainsi que les blessures mineures comme, par exemple, les ongles cassÈs. INFRACTIONS ET PUNITIONS Si l'option de punition est activÈe, l'arbitre dÈnonce les infractions commises sur la glace (surtout contre votre adversaire si vous l'avez achetÈ). Si l'infraction a ÈtÈ commise par le joueur qui contrÙle la rondelle, l'arbitre ordonne un arrÍt. Le nom du joueur puni ainsi que l'infraction apparaissent ‡ l'Ècran des fautes pendant qu'il patine vers le banc de punition. Une remise en jeu a lieu dans la zone appropriÈe. Punitions retardÈes Si l'infraction a ÈtÈ commise par un joueur de l'Èquipe qui ne contr lait pas la rondelle, le joueur est informÈ de la punition lorsque l'arbitre apparaÓt. Le jeu continue jusqu'‡ ce qu'un joueur de l'Èquipe fautive touche la rondelle. ¿ ce moment, l'arbitre arrÍte le jeu et le joueur puni est envoyÈ en punition. On fait alors une mise au jeu. Si l'Èquipe du joueur puni ne reprend pas la rondelle avant que l'Èquipe adverse ne marque un but, la punition est annulÈe. Seules les fautes mineures font l'objet d'une punition retardÈe. Les fautes majeures sont punies immÈdiatement. Fautes mineures Les joueurs qui mÈritent une punition mineure doivent passer un petit moment sur le banc de punition. Cingler : Le fait de frapper un adversaire par derriËre avec son b‚ton afin de le gÍner ou de l'intimider. Force excessive : Cacher et utiliser des armes illÈgales sur la glace. Blessures : BrutalitÈ excessive l'endroit d'un adversaire. Attaquer le gardien de but : S'en prendre au gardien de but derriËre sa ligne de but. Fautes majeures Les joueurs qui commettent des fautes majeures doivent passer plus de temps en punition. ExÈcution : Provoquer la mort d'un adversaire. Bagarre : Se battre avec un autre joueur. Les deux joueurs sont punis, mais le perdant passe plus de temps en punition. BrutalitÈ : Attaquer le gardien de but adverse en vue de le blesser. Cette faute est sanctionnÈe lorsqu'une Èquipe a pour but de blesser ou de malmener le gardien de but adverse. Nota : ´Mutant League Hockeyª est un jeu violent et les arbitres n'imposent de pÈnalitÈs d'exÈcution ou de force excessive qu'en cas d'attaque vraiment trop brutale. INFRACTIONS DÈgagement interdit : Passer ou lancer la rondelle au-del‡ de la ligne rouge divisant la patinoire en deux, la ligne bleue de l'adversaire et la ligne de but rouge au bout de la patinoire, mais n'incluant pas la surface de but. Nota : Certaines patinoires de ´Mutant Leagueª ont des lignes de couleurs diffÈrentes, mais l'infraction demeure la mÍme. Si un joueur de l'Èquipe adverse touche la rondelle aprËs un dÈgagement interdit ou si le gardien de but de l'Èquipe dÈfendante touche la rondelle avant l'Èquipe attaquante, il n'y a pas d'infraction. Il n'y a pas de dÈgagement interdit lors d'un lancer au but, ou si l'Èquipe est en infÈrioritÈ numÈrique en raison de punitions ou de dÈcËs. AprËs avoir dÈnoncÈ un dÈgagement interdit, l'arbitre arrÍte le jeu et demande une remise en jeu dans la zone de dÈfense de l'Èquipe qui a commis l'infraction. GARDER LA RONDELLE Si le gardien de but garde la rondelle pendant plus de dix secondes, le jeu est arrÍtÈ et il y mise au jeu. BLESSURES Il arrive qu'un joueur prenne un coup dur et se torde de douleur sur la glace pendant quelques secondes. JEU DE PUISSANCE Lorsqu'une Èquipe a un joueur en moins en raison de punitions, il y a jeu de puissance. Le temps qu'il reste dans le jeu de puissance est affichÈ ‡ l'horloge. FORFAITS Les matches de ´Mutant League Hockeyª peuvent se terminer par un forfait. Une Èquipe dÈclare automatiquement forfait si elle a moins de deux joueurs et un gardien de but (ou filet diabolique) sur la glace. Les joueurs sont considÈrÈs comme non disponibles s'ils sont en punition, sous la glace ou morts. Les joueurs la santÈ fragiles demeurent tout de mÍme disponibles. Les forfaits sont plus courants lorsque l'indice de mort est fixÈ ‡ un niveau ÈlevÈ. ARMES L'utilisation d'armes (tron onneuses, haches, marteaux, etc.) est strictement contrÙlÈe dans ´Mutant League Hockeyª, on se demande bien pourquoi! Les joueurs autres que les exÈcuteurs qui se servent d'armes sur la glace risquent d'Ítre punis. Toutefois, il y a une lacune dans les rËgles: les joueurs ne doivent pas Ítre armÈs lorsqu'ils arrivent sur la glace, mais ils peuvent ramasser des armes au cours du match. Pour ramasser les armes jetÈes par la foule sur la glace, les joueurs doivent patiner dessus. Le joueur dÈj‡ armÈ qui patine sur une arme doit laisser tomber son arme pour en ramasser une autre. Lorsqu'un joueur quitte la glace et va s'asseoir sur le banc, il perd ses armes sauf s'il est un exÈcuteur. Appuyez sur A pour utiliser une arme. PI»CES DE MONNAIE Les spectateurs jettent parfois des piËces de monnaie sur la glace. Lorsqu'un joueur patine sur une piËce, il la ramasse. L'arbitre est alors automatiquement achetÈ et c'est l'Èquipe adverse qui recevra toutes les punitions. OSSEMENTS Les spectateurs jettent aussi des os sur la glace. Pour les ramasser, votre joueur doit patiner dessus. Os blancs : Pour amÈliorer les coups de poing et les mises en Èchec de votre joueur. Os rouges : Pour rendre toute sa santÈ ‡ votre joueur. Os noirs : Pour ralentir un joueur. FILETS DE BUT Filet standard C'est le filet ordinaire que tous les amateurs de hockey connaissent. Lancez la rondelle au-del‡ de la ligne de but et dans le filet pour marquer un but. Dans la ´Mutant Leagueª, les filets standard sont rÈservÈs aux Èquipes moins glorieuses et plus pauvres. Filet de bataille C'est un filet ÈmaillÈ de pointes acÈrÈes et de fil barbelÈ pouvant faire mal aux joueurs. Ces derniers perdent des vies s'ils traÓnent trop longtemps dans les parages. Filet diabolique C'est un filet vivant qui rÈagit aux conditions du jeu. Il est trËs utile si une Èquipe doit envoyer son gardien de but se reposer. Le filet diabolique ne peut pas Ítre utilisÈ en prÈsence d'un gardien de but. Le filet diabolique suit la rondelle lorsque l'Èquipe adverse se trouve dans son camp. Lorsque la rondelle pÈnËtre dans sa zone, la bouche du filet s'ouvre et se ferme ‡ toute vitesse et il devient difficile de marquer un but. Un filet diabolique dÈteste qu'on marque un but (peut-Ítre qu'il n'aime pas le go˚t de la rondelle); tout but le fera exploser et mourir. Il est alors automatiquement remplacÈ par un nouveau filet muni d'un gardien de but. Toutes les Èquipes ne disposent pas d'un filet diabolique.

En outre, chaque position autre que celle de gardien de but dispose d'un joueur supplÈmentaire. Le remplaÁant est choisi par l'ordinateur comme Ètant le meilleur pour cette position, mÍme si normalement il joue dans une autre position. Certains remplaÁants sont polyvalents et jouent trËs bien en diffÈrentes positions. Par consÈquent, si vous voyez un joueur comme ´Too Gruesomeª dans la liste des joueurs pour plusieurs positions diffÈrentes, c'est parce qu'il est capable de jouer aussi bien dans toutes ces positions.

Square off with Mario Lemieux as he comes towards you with a high stick. Pass up the boards to an open winger for the give-and-go. This crazy defenseman's on your back. But you unload a body-crushing check into the boards. He drops his gloves. It's a fight. He fires a roundhouse. You duck, jab, then uppercut. All in up-close, one-on-one action. This is real hockey, with all the trimmings. All the moves of the pros, including fights. From Sega. Mario Lemieux Hockey Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text Directional Button: * Moves players right and left * Controls goalie in shoot-out Start Button: * Accepts settings * Begins play * Pause/Resume Button A: * Moves password cursor * Confirms selections Button C: * Accepts password character Mario Lemieux Hockey Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text ON OFFENSE: * The Face Off: When the referee drops the puck, one of you will get control of the puck. * Getting Control of the Puck: When you're in position to swipe, the red lights at the bottom of the screen will turn green. TO HIT THE PUCK, press Button B at precisely the right time. Here are your offensive controls: * Directional Button: Skate: Aim pass or shot * A Button: Shoot, tap once for low, twice for high. * B Button: Pass; Request pass * C Button: Request control * Start Button: See Stats/Pause * Passing the Puck: You control the player with the circle under him. To switch control, press Button C. To pass the puck, hold down the D-Button in the direction you want to pass and press Button B. * Shooting: To shoot, skate towards the goal and press Button A when you think you have an opening. Remember to "aim" with the D-Button as you're pressing Button A. The puck target indicator lets you know if you're in line for a shot just as you're ready to make it. If the shot becomes blocked by the goalie or if you move out of position the arrow will disappear. FIGHTING: Players start out with different energy levels depending on their "Power" level. Here are the fighting moves: * Directional Button: Moves fighter * A Button: Jab * B Button: Roundhouse * C Button: Uppercut * A+B Buttons: Low blow. * B+C Buttons: Another low blow. As you punch and get punched, you lose energy. Keep your eye on the energy meter and try to avoid getting drained. Defend yourself, and make every punch count. Make sure you're the right distance away from your opponent for the most effective punches. Some punches, like jabs, are more effective from a bit farther back. Other punches, like uppercuts, are more effective when you're right in the guy's face. ON THE DEFENSE: Whenever you lose possession of the puck, you're on the defense. When you're on defense you can skate the guy you're controlling anywhere. Even off the screen! Change control of your player in defense by pressing Button C. Here are your other defensive moves: * Directional Button: Moves player; Directs goalie pass. * A Button: Checks opponent; Swings stick if penalty box full. * B Button: Makes Goalie pass. * C Button: Switch player control Note: If you chase the puck or double-team an opponent, you will be leaving a man open and unguarded unless, of course, the other guys have players in the penalty box. Also, if the goalie holds the pass too long, he'll get a "Goalie Holding Puck" Penalty resulting in a face-off. * Fighting Penalties: If you win, you stay in the game. If you lose, you must go to the penalty box. Sometimes you both have to go. * Checking: To "check" an opponent, get close to him and press Button A. Once you check your opponent he'll drop to the ice. But don't be surprised if he goes after you. Or if the ref calls a penalty on you. Note: You can't "check" a goalie or a referee. And whenever two men are already in the penalty box, you won't be able to check. CHANGING LINES: Just like in real hockey, you can rotate your lines with fresh defenders when the ones on the ice get tired. * Green means fully rested. * Yellow is somewhat rested. * Red means getting tired. You can change lines any time during gameplay. But the best time to change lines is when there's a stoppage. However, you can't do this in the BEGINNER LEVEL. * To change the forwards, press Buttons A and B together. * To change the defensive lines, press Buttons B and C together. * Penalties: You will never have more than 2 men in the penalty box at one time. If there are already two men in, you can't check or fight. When opponent's skaters are in the penalty box, you have a distinct advantage. When their times are "up," each player from the penalty box will automatically return to play. Here's how long each type of penalty is: PENALTY TIME Checking Opponent 2 minutes Losing a Fight 3 minutes Losing a draw 3 minutes (each) Delay of Game 2 minutes Tripping 2 minutes Slashing 2 minutes Roughing 2 minutes Mario Lemieux Hockey Team Skills Use Up/Down to scroll text Once you choose all your options and changes and press the Start Button, the Team Skills screen will appear. Press Button A repeatedly to cycle through "Balanced Skills" set-ups. Press Button B repeatedly to cycle through "Progressive Skills" set-ups Press Button C to set the skills to the default mode. Here's how it works: The skill level of each team is based on six categories (each is given a rating from 1 to 5): * Shooting * Speed * Power * Defense * Passing * Goalie Shooting: The better the shooting skills, the more likely shots will beat the goalie. As shooting goes up, "tough guy" power drops. Power: A team's physical strength. Power teams check harder and have higher energy levels, increasing their fighting ability. Mario Lemieux Hockey Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text On Offense: When you gain possession of the puck, head towards the opponents goal. The puck moves faster than you so pass ahead to one of your teammates. Be careful not to pass across the opponents Blue Line or it will be Offsides (Pro rules only). Once across the blue line, hit Button A to shoot at the goal (hit Button A twice for a high shot). Keep going towards the goal after the shot because it may bounce off the goalie, and you can retrieve it and take another shot. If the goalie grabs the puck, circle around the area pressing Button A to knock down anybody in your way. The goalie has to pass out the puck or a penalty will be charged. If you're near the goalie, grab the puck and shoot or pass it to the other side and shoot. When shooting at the goal, make sure you aim your shot away from the goalie. On Defense: Once the opponent has the puck, hit Button C to become the closest player to the puck. The puck moves faster than you can skate. So pass as often as you can. Hit Button A as you come in contact with the opponent to knock him down and steal the puck. Be careful, this is how you get to the penalty box or get in a fight. As you follow the opponent back towards your goal, move back and forth towards him. Doing this will allow you to get closer as he decides which way your going. If the player takes a shot, your goalie will do his best to stop the shot. If he catches it, wait until one of your men is open, then hit Button B to pass to the open player. Be careful, because the opponent will try to steal it. If the goalie can't catch it, you need to have a defenseman close to pick it up or hit it away by pressing Button A. *** SECRET CODE *** To get black ice, enter the password CEMENTBLADES.

If you are defense, you have 5 after the offense chooses a play, or the computer will choose for you. When 2 players are together, the controller that is listed first in the controller assignment screen will select plays. The playbook appears on the screen, showing three plays for each team, each labeled according to the button pressed to select it: Button A,B,or C.

It's a handy device on plays that are-or might become-spread out over a large part of the field, such as kick-offs, punts and long pass plays. THE YARDAGE GAUGE The yardage gauge appears between plays from scrimmage, to show a description of the last play, penalties, etc.

PLAYING THE GAME NCAA Final Four Basketball is a completely accurate basketball simulation. Like a real player, you should practice as much as you can so you know how to maneuver around the court before you head to the Tournament. NOTE: On an inbound play, the CPU will take control of the human-controlled inbounder. When the CPU takes control, you will see an Al over the inbounder's head.

Time-outs Each team is granted three time-outs per half and one extra per overtime period. Unused time-outs are rolled over to the next period, so a team could use two in the game and three in overtime. Scorer's Horn The Scorer's Horn sounds in this game. Starting The Game Clock The clock starts on an in-bounds play when: 1) a player on the court touches the ball 2) the ball is touched after a free throw is missed and no more are to be shot 3) the ball is thrown in and touches a player after a made free throw 4) a jump ball is controlled by a player Stopping The Game Clock The clock stops when: 1) there is a time-out called 2) the ball goes out-of-bounds 3) there is a foul or violation 4) a basket is made in the last 60 seconds of play Shot Clock The shot clock is placed above the backboards and allows the team with the ball 35 seconds to shoot and hit the rim or make a basket. A buzzer will sound when the shot clock has expired. If a shot is in the air when the buzzer sounds and it hits the rim or goes in, it is not a violation. The shot clock will be turned off when it has more time remaining than the game clock. Resetting The Shot Clock The shot clock will be reset when: 1) a shot hits the rim 2) there is a foul or other violation 3) there is a change of possession The shot clock does not restart until a team establishes control of the ball(inbound). Stopping The Shot Clock The shot clock stops, but is not reset, for time-outs and when a defender hits the ball out-of-bounds. It is not stopped or reset when the ball is loose. Jump Balls There are no jump balls after the opening tip-off. Calls Against Players Players may be called for the following violations: 1) three seconds in the lane 2) ten seconds bringing the ball up court 3) going backcourt 4) taking more than five seconds to in-bound the ball NOTE: 1) Traveling, double dribble and kicked balls do not occur in the game. 2) Goaltending and offensive basket interference are not allowed in the game. Personal Fouls Players may be called for personal fouls, defensive or offensive. Illegal screens will not be called in the game. Offensive fouls do not count as team fouls(see Team Fouls). Each player will be allowed five fouls for the entire game. After committing the fifth foul, he must be replaced by a substitute and may not return. When a player is fouled while shooting, he gets three free throws if the shot was a three-pointer and missed, two free throws if the shot(not a three-pointer) was missed and one free throw if the shot went in. Team Fouls When a team has committed seven fouls in one half, the other team is said to be in the "bonus" situation for foul shooting. Any non-shooting and non-offensive fouls are awarded special free throws that are "one-plus-one." One-plus-one means that the second free throw is only shot if the first one is made. If the first is missed, the ball is live and the play continues. After a team commits its tenth foul in a half, its opponent must shoot two free throws for all non-offensive fouls. Technical Fouls No technical fouls will occur in the game. In-Bounding When throwing a ball in-bounds after making a basket, in official NCAA Basketball, it is legal for the in-bounder to move along the baseline or to pass to a teammate who is also out-of-bounds behind the baseline before the ball is thrown in. However, in this game, it will not be allowed. In all other cases of in-bounding, the in-bounder may not move until he passes the ball in. All in-bounding teams have five seconds to pass in the ball once set, since there is no referee to hand them the ball. NCAA Final Four Basketball Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * NCAA Final Four Basketball rewards you for shooting when you're open-you'll find that you have a greater chance of making it in. * Start your slam dunks and lay-ups early-you'll do best if you start around one step in from the 3 point line. * Play within your defense or you'll just give points to the opposition. * Use the on-screen HELP whenever possible. * Whenever a computer-controlled player on your team gets the ball, control of that player goes to the last human controlled-player to have the ball. * You will be able to bank shots near the basket and at angles. * To make a fake shot/jump, hold the C Button down for less than 1/4 second. Tapping the button for a jump(without the ball) if your player is not standing still may abort the jump before starting the upward motion.

THE FACE OFF The home team faces up-screen for the first and third periods. When the referee window appears, the face-off is about to begin. * When the referee drops the puck, press B to pass, A to shoot, or C to hold and poke check. SKATING Use the D-Pad to move the highlighted player around the ice. The highlighted player appears on a circle with his number and position clearly marked. When playing against the computer, the puck-carrier on the computer team is likewise indicated. NHL All-Star Hockey '95 Offense and Defense Use Up/Down to scroll text OFFENSE The object of the game is to score more goals than your opponent. To do that you need to pass and shoot accurately. Passing Whichever way you have the D-Pad pressed at the time of the pass, that's the direction the pass will travel. If you don't have the D-Pad pressed, the pass will travel in the direction the puck-carrier is facing. * To pass the puck, press B. Wrist Shot The Wrist Shot is quick and accurate, but not very powerful. It's most effective when you're close to the net. * To perform a wrist shot, press and release A. Be sure to release the A Button quickly, or you'll wind up with a Slap Shot. Slap Shot The Slap Shot is not as accurate as the Wrist Shot, but it's a lot more powerful. * To perform a Slap Shot, press and hold A. The longer you hold the A Button, the harder the Slap Shot. One Timer A One Timer requires split-second timing. The shooter anticipates the arrival of the puck and shoots the instant he receives it. A One Timer is usually set up off a pass, but it can be executed off a rebound or a loose puck. A One Timer is just as accurate as a Wrist Shot and just as powerful as a Slap Shot. * To execute a One Timer, hold A before the puck reaches your player. The player about to receive the puck raises his stick in preparation for the shot. As soon as the puck arrives, he slaps it toward the net. Aiming The Shot Use the D-Pad to aim the shot. The left/right inputs determine which side of the net the shot will head toward. The up/down inputs determine the height of the shot. D-Pad up sends the puck high. D-Pad down keeps the puck low. Combination D-Pad inputs(such as left/up or right/down) allow you to combine direction and height. DEFENSE On Defense, the man you control is highlighted with a circle. During play, you'll need to constantly switch the highlight circle so as to control the man closest to the puck. * To highlight the man closest to the puck, press B. * For a quick burst of speed, press C. When your defender is positioned next to the puck-carrier, you can attempt to dislodge the puck by checking him. A player's checking effectiveness varies according to his Checking rating. * To attempt a stick check, press A. * To attempt a poke check, press B. * To attempt a body check, press C. * To attempt a hook hold, press A + B. * To attempt a trip, press B + C. The effectiveness of your checks depends on your positioning, your speed, and your timing. Manual Goalie When the Goalie option is set to Manual, the control automatically switches to the goalie at the moment a shot is attempted, and you can move your goalie from side to side. The goalie's save moves are still controlled by the computer. Note that you don't have to assume control of the goalie-he will still operate automatically if you don't take control. CHANGING LINES When Line Changes are ON, you are responsible for rotating your lines during play. The line on the ice loses stamina, and the lines off the ice regain stamina. The more effectively you rotate your lines, the fresher your team will be and the better they'll play. You can change lines when you're controlling the puck or before a face-off. Before each face-off, the line change box appears, with your team's name at the top and the three available lines listed below. The line currently on the ice is highlighted. The stamina bar next to each line shows how much stamina that line possesses at the moment. The longer the stamina bar, the more stamina. * To select a new line, press the button corresponding to that line. When you change lines before a face-off, the players are substituted instantly. Changing Lines of the Fly When your team controls the puck, you can change lines on the fly. Note that when you change lines on the fly, players on the ice skate off and their replacements skate on. As in real hockey, this can be risky, since players are momentarily out of position during the switch. * To bring up the line change box, press C. * To select a new line, press the button corresponding to that line. THE LINES Each team has eight different lines: two Scoring Lines, two Play lines, two Penalty Killing lines, one Checking Line, and one Enforcer Line. Scoring Lines The two Scoring Lines are for fast skating and accurate shooting. You'll want to keep these lines on the ice as much as possible in non-penalty situations. Scoring Line 1 is more formidable than Scoring Line 2. Power Play Lines The two Power Play Lines are designed to take full advantage of your opponent's penalty situation. When the other team is short-handed, the Power play lines appear in the Line Change Box. Power Play Line 1 is more formidable than Power Play Line 2. Penalty Killing Lines The two Penalty Killing Lines are designed to thwart the opposing team's Power Play Lines when you're short-handed. Penalty Killing Line 1 is more formidable than Penalty Killing Line 2. Check The Check Line is used in non-penalty situations to wear down the opponent with hard physical play. It's often wise to use the Check Line when you're ahead and want to keep the opponent away from your net. Enforcer The Enforcer Line is available when the Check Line is on the ice. It's used in non-penalty situations to intimidate the opponent with highly aggressive play. It's similar to the Check Line, but even more physical. FIGHTING When the Fighting option is ON, fights occasionally break out. As soon as a fight breaks out, a referee blows his whistle and the clock stops. the Fight Screen appears.

PLAYOFFS/PLAYOFFS SEVEN The two Playoff Modes allow you to skip the Season and go straight to a Playoff tournament. Playoff mode is a single elimination tournament. Playoffs Seven is a best of seven tournament. These playoff tournaments are separate from any post-season playoffs that follow a Full Season. One Player can compete against the computer or Two Players can compete against each other, with the winning player keeping the same team and the losing player taking control of the next team on the Playoff schedule. If the player that won in the first round loses in a subsequent round, the playoff tournament is over. NHL All-Star Hockey '95 Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * As in real hockey, NHL All-Star Hockey '95 is very challenging. Your success depends on your skill and the skill of your players. Start out with one of the stronger teams and/or a team with a highly rated goalie. * When skating with the puck into the attacking zone(past the opponent's blue line), keep to one side of the net and try to fire a shot into the opposite corner of the net. If you're too close to the net when you fire the shot, the goalie can cut off the angle. * Check the opposing goalie's Stick ratings to see which side is his weakest. * Beef up your lines for optimum scoring. For instance, we've provided Mario Lemieux on the Pittsburgh Penguins' roster. Try placing him on your line(s). * Be alert for offensive rebounds and try to flip a wrist shot past the goalie before he can get back into position. * Defense is very important. By blocking your opponent's shots before they reach your goalie, the goalie won't have to stop the puck. Remember, a shot-on-goal is only a shot that reaches the goalie. The fewer shots-on-goal you allow, the better your chances for winning. * To practice your defense, pull your goalie and try to keep the computer from scoring on you.

GAME DESCRIPTION GETTING STARTED THE EVENTS PART ONE THE EVENTS PART TWO BROWSE HELP FILES Winter Olympics '94 Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text Sixteen of the world's leading sporting nations have come together to compete in the XVII Olympic Winter Games. You and three friends may compete against each other and some of the best computer controlled athletes in the world for the ultimate achievement in amateur sports: an Olympic medal. You will compete in 10 exciting events in the Full Olympic program, or choose your own set of events for a Mini Olympic competition, or practice an event. All events are based around the actual venues and incorporate scenery found in and around Lillehammer. In some events two players may compete head to head. Winter Olympics '94 Getting Started Use Up/Down to scroll text Once you have selected a language, pressing any button on the D-Pad will bring up the Main Selection screen. By pressing up/down on the D-Pad, you will be able to highlight any option. Press any button to select. The functions available are: Full Olympics: The Full Olympics allows you to play all 10 events, and includes both the Opening and Closing ceremonies. Mini Olympics: The Mini Olympics feature allows you to select which events you wish to compete in during the Games. By selecting this feature, you cannot see the Opening or Closing ceremonies. Use the D-Pad to move the highlight between pictograms. If you have selected one of the Head to Head events, select a 1 or 2 player game by using the D-Pad or any button to begin the event. To exit back to the Main Selection screen, select EXIT. Training Session: This feature will allow you to train in the event of your choice, or where available, to compete against another player in a Head to Head event. Selection is the same as for Mini Olympics, but you will be able to select a number of events to play. When you have selected all the events you wish to compete in, press the START button. After you complete your training, you will be returned to the Training Session screen. The Competition Begins When 2, 3, or 4 players have been entered, each player takes turns playing the events, with the exception of the Head-to-Head events, in which two players oppose each other at the same time. At the start of a Head-to-Head event, the two human players who compete against each other will be asked to press the START button on their D-Pads. Winter Olympics '94 The Events Part One Use Up/Down to scroll text Downhill: One of the world's toughest downhill courses lies 50 km north of Lillehammer, at Kvitjell, and forms part of the Lillehammer Olympic Alpine Center. Measuring 3,150 meters in length, it has a vertical descent of 820 meters, and at the steepest point involves a drop of 70-80 meters. However, Alpine events have not always been a part of the Olympic Games. They were first introduced in the 1936 Games. The course is designed primarily for speed and the gates are positioned so as not to interfere with the fastest line. Be warned, however, for they do test the competitor's technical ability to control speed in areas of difficult terrain. The winner is the competitor who completes the course in the fastest time after one run. Prior to starting the event you will need to select which skiing method you prefer. You can either select to hold the direction you wish to travel, pushing to the left will cause the skier to ski to the right, or pushing to the left will cause the skier to ski to the left. You must ski from the starting hut to the finish line, ensuring that you go through all the gates positioned down the course. Missing a gate results in your disqualification. However, you will still be able to complete the course, but no result will be given. Do not hit objects off the course as this will result in fatal injury. Jumps and tight turns must also be overcome. When in the starting hut, press the A button within the fixed starting period to begin your run. Adopt the tuck position by holding the B button down to gain extra speed. Beware, if you go too fast you may not be able to control the skier over certain parts of the course. These controls are used in all Alpine skiing events. Super G: The Super G is also held at Kviftjell and is a somewhat shorter track than the downhill. The course has a natural sequence of long and medium turns, including gates which are positioned to slow the skiers down as well as create more sweeping lines across the mountain side. This is the longest of the slalom events and the winner is decided after one run. Giant Slalom: The Lillehammer Olympic Alpine National Center, Hajifell, just 15 km north of Lillehammer, is the home of the Giant Slalom event. The course has been designed with long, medium, and tight turns in a natural sequence and gates allowing competitors to exploit natural variations in the terrain. The winner is decided after two runs and the player's rank is calculated against the lowest combined time. Slalom: The Slalom course at Hajifell is the shortest of all the skiing events. The gates are positioned to provide the skier with a number of changes of direction, while also making it possible to gain speed and maintain a steady flowing rhythm through the course. The winner is the competitor with the fastest aggregate time after two runs down the different courses. Freestyle Moguls: Moguls will take place at the Kanthaugen Freestyle Arena, just a short distance from the center of Lillehammer, and one of the most modern and advanced freestyle arenas in the world. Having been introduced to the Olympic Games at Albertville in 1992, the skier performs an individual descent of high speed turns down a steep 250-meter slope evenly covered with moguls. The skier follows the fall line and executes two jumps during the run. Time, technique, and jump performance are critical for the final result. Fifty percent of the points are assigned for technique, 25 percent for two obligatory jumps and the remainder for time. Start the event by pressing any button. The skier must accelerate to a high speed down the mogul slope in order to complete stunts like a twister, daffy, or back scratcher. A twister can be done at a relatively low speed, but some, such as the double-stunts, must have a higher speed. Speed can be attained by pressing the opposite direction of the D-Pad as the skier turns. For example, as the skier is moving left, and about to turn right, the player must push at the correct time. If his pace is too slow, the skier will lose his rhythm and speed, losing turn points and speed points. The skier can perform stunts at any time, but to carry some off requires a lot of skill from the skier. Pushing a direction on the D-Pad simultaneously with the A button will perform a single stunt (provided the timing is correct), and pushing a direction simultaneously with the B button will perform a double stunt. The doubles must be precise and may take a lot of practice. Stunts should be activated when the skier is in the middle of the mogul. To avoid a crash landing, make sure the stunt is not activated too early or late, and that the skier has enough speed. Winter Olympics '94 The Events Part Two Use Up/Down to scroll text Ski Jumping: Ski Jumping has a long tradition as a winter sport, and was a central feature of the Olympic Winter Games in Chamonix in 1924. The longest jump on that occasion was 49 meters. The Lysegardsbakkene Ski Jumping Arena, just a few hundred meters from the center of Lillehammer, will host the ski jumping events. Ski jumping requires strength, grace, and courage. Competitors make two jumps from a specially constructed hill, and points are awarded for style and technique as well as for the distance achieved. The ideal jump is one executed with power, boldness, and precision, while giving an impression of calm and steady control. Press the A button to push the skier off and start the descent down the jump. Wind affects both the descent and flight. To gain speed during the descent, keep the pointer in the center of the overlaid skis (located at the bottom of the screen), and use the up/down on the D-Pad. At the end of the ramp, press the A button to take off. Pressing to early will lose valuable air time, likewise, pressing too late will lose distance. While the skier is in the air, use the left/right directions on the D-Pad to keep the skier balanced. The skier's hand movements signify that he is about to lean in the opposite direction, so the player must compensate by pushing in that direction. For example, if the left hand is moving, compensate by pressing the left direction on the D-Pad. When a skier is approaching the ground, the player must judge the height using the shadow as a guide. Press any button to adopt the landing posture. Again, pressing too early will result in loss of distance, press too late and you are likely to crash. Points are awarded for both style and distance. Bobsleigh: Bobsleigh competitions have been in the Olympic Games since the Winter Games were first held in 1924, except for the 1960 Games in Squaw Valley. Stretching 1,365 meters in length, the course at Hunderfossen, 15 km north of Lillehammer, is northern Europe's most modern track. The bobsleigh is push-started by its crew. This initial thrust and force of gravity are the only permitted means of powering the bobsleigh down the course. The aggregate time after four runs determines the winners. To build speed during the run-in, press the A & B buttons alternately. The faster you press the buttons, the faster the bobsleigh will travel. When you reach the run, it is up to you to steer the bobsleigh around the track by using left/right on the D-Pad. The goal is to guide the bobsleigh to an optimal position on the track, especially around the bends. This will create less spray, maximize acceleration, increase speed, and therefore produce a faster time! Be careful not to oversteer and cause the bobsleigh to crash! Use split times, displayed on the left hand side of the screen, to help monitor your progress. Luge: The luge, a light toboggan, is a relative newcomer to the Olympic Winter Games and was included in the program for the first time at the Innsbruck Games in 1964. Also being held on the Hunderfossen track, but from a differing starting position. The controls are the same as for the bobsleigh. The best aggregate times over the two runs wins. Biathlon: Biathlon is a combined sport of cross-country skiing and rifle shooting that was first introduced in the 1960 Olympic Winter Games. The Birkenbieneren Ski Stadium in the Lillehammer Olympic Park will be home to the biathlon. During the cross country sections, use left/right on the D-Pad to move the pointer along the bar. Make sure to change directions before hitting the colored ends, as this will reduce your speed by a quarter. During the shooting sections, use the D-Pad to aim, then press any button to fire. For each target missed, a one minute time penalty is added to your overall time. During the sprint to the finish line you will need to press the A and B buttons alternately as fast as possible. Short Track Speed Skating: Speed Skating on a short track was introduced to the Olympic Games at Albertville in 1992. This event differs in several ways from conventional speed skating, particularly in the size of the track. The events will be staged in the Harmar Olympic Amphitheater. A starting pistol begins the event. Two false starts results in disqualification. Press the A and B buttons repeatedly to gain speed. Avoid other skaters by moving in and out of the track, using left/right on the D-Pad. Be careful not to crash into other contestants as this may leave you flat on the ice! Medal Table At the end of an event the results are displayed. Should any of the human contestants place in the top three in an event, they will be awarded with either a bronze (3rd place), silver (2nd place), or gold (1st place) medal. The Medal Table will then be displayed, and is based on both the number of medals won and the culmination of points based upon the result. Closing Ceremony If you were playing the game in Full Olympic mode, then when the last event has been completed, you will be able to view the closing ceremony and celebrations which conclude the Games. You may exit this sequence and go back to the Main Selection screen by pressing any button.

GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES The Ooze Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text THE OOZE IS BORN Dr. Caine, research scientist, was becoming very suspicious of certain behind-the-scenes research at The Corporation. After the plant shut down one evening, he decided to surf through The Corporation's databases. By hacking into one after another of the classified documents, he discovered the awful truth... The Corporation had succeeded in developing a hybrid plague, a disease so dangerous and fast-spreading, it could wipe out humanity in just a few days! Only The Corporation held the cure. They planned to unleash this pestilence in water supplies around the globe, infecting the entire planet at a single blow. Then, they would extort billions of dollars from world governments to supply the cure!

Caine needs it to stay healthy. The more ooze he has, the better he can fight. The Corporation is full of tormented mutant creatures who have been twisted and deformed by toxic pollution. Biologic enemies like slugs, rats and disembodied brains give up a blob of ooze when defeated. Always collect these ooze droppings. Each one increases Caine's size. The bigger he is, the more hits he can take without shriveling away. There's a downside to being big. Caine loses a spot of ooze whenever he takes a hit. He's always a moving target, so the larger he is, the easier he is to hit, and the more apt he is to get ripped in half by tanks, flame vents and other diabolical devices. When the Ooze takes a shot directly to his head, he loses a life. He can also lose a life if he gets too small; then, he just peters away. He starts with only 3 lives, so losing a life is not good. In addition, you have to start the round over, or at a waypoint if you've passed one. When all the lives are used up, the game ends and The Corporation spreads its evil plague all over the world! OOZE MOVES Spreading Ooze Around: * Move the Ooze by pressing the D-Pad in the direction you want to go. * Ooze's head leads, so if it seems that the Ooze is bumping into something instead of going around it, use the D-Pad to turn him, and then continue in the direction. Punching: * The punch is the Ooze's basic attack. It is an extension of his body. Punches can be short-range or long-range attacks. * Tap the Punch button(default Button A) + the D-Pad in the direction of a foe for a quick, powerful sock to the enemy's solar plexus. * You can control a punch to go around corners, protecting Ooze's head from attack. Hold down the Punch button while guiding the punch with the D-Pad. The longer you hold down the Punch button, the longer your reach will be. Also, the more Ooze you have, the further you can punch. Spitting * Hitting your target with a long-range spit wad does twice the amount of damage as a punch. Spit a Hocker of Death by aiming with the D-Pad and tapping the Spit button(default Button B). * The Ooze loses a piece of himself every time he spits. Keep him healthy by picking up ooze wads from defeated enemies. * If the Ooze is too small, he won't be able to spit. * The Ooze can't spit while being damaged by enemy attacks. Flipping Levers * Flip levers by punching them or flowing around them. * Levers open doors and turn off destructive machines. POWER-UPS Extra Ooze Ooze keeps you healthy. The more ooze you have, the further the Ooze can punch. Speed Go fast. The Ooze turns yellow while he's speedy, orange when the power is running out, and back to green when it's over. Industrial Strength Toxin Defeat organic creatures just by touching them. The Ooze turns red while the power lasts, black when the power is running out, and back to green when it's over. Extra Life More chances to win. DNA Helix Collect all 50 helixes in The Corporation and Caine will regain his humanity. Waypoint Pass one of these, and you'll restart here after losing a life, instead of at the beginning of the round. THE CORPORATION Toxic Dump Practice your punch on mutant snails while enjoying the screams of pyro-thugs. Remember, the Ooze seeks his own level. Waste Plant Toxic gas nozzles can waste you in a second, so protect your head. The Ooze doesn't mix well with radioactive sludge. Play broken pipes to your advantage! Genetics Lab Get here by crawling out of a potty. This is where all those bio-freak mutants are made. Time to flush 'em all. Don't snack on the bombs! Power Core Run, er...ooze, through a gauntlet of sentries and tricky switches to conquer the Director's reactor. Sizzling electro-fields, shockbots and ball lightning make you spitting mad! Plague Factory This is where it all comes together...or falls apart at the seams! The Ooze Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * The Ooze seeks his own level. Don't go down the drain by slipping off ramps, or letting the Ooze get sucked down on incline. Especially don't let his head go down the drain or it'll cost you a life. * Learn to control your punch and guide it around corners. You'll definitely need this skill in the later rounds. * Protect your head! * Explore everything. Sometimes a discovery can make life, such as it is, easier. * Find the bonus rounds, where the Ooze can catch the lab's mutant rabbits to get more ooze. * Keep your eyes open for road signs signaling extremely dangerous areas, such as pools of poison or laser fields. * You don't have to collect all the DNA helixes to win the game, but it's more fun if you do. * Collect power-ups, including Life caps, that can make your life easier.

You're allowed a maximum of 80 seconds to complete the first route. If you run out of time before you complete a route, you are retired from the game. If you make it to the next route with time to spare, the words EXTENDED PLAY! will appear, and the seconds remaining will be added to the time allotted for the next route. Use your booster rocket wisely. To use your booster rocket, simply stay on the accelerator. When your Power Gauge turns white and begins flashing, get ready for a burst of speed that will take you to 684 MPH. Avoid firing your booster rocket by slowing down or touching the brakes just as the rocket seems ready to fire. Dodge road traps. Some of the routes are in terrible shape. Many bridges don't have guard rails and some roads are littered with construction signs and sand. Each obstacle you hit costs you precious seconds of racing time. There are ramps placed on certain routes that allow you to jump over the worst of the obstacles. Outrun 2019 Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Use your brakes. A driver who never lets off the accelerator runs off the road a lot. At high speeds, drive as straight as possible while staying on the road. Or use your brakes to cut to the inside of a turn, then accelerate during the turn. Plan your route around the trouble spots on each stage. Use your booster rocket wisely. Time your boosts according to the track layout. Pay close attention to signs to tell you what's ahead. If you run off the road, don't hit the road signs--they'll slow you down. Start turning before you reach a sharp turn.

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME STATS & OPTIONS HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES PGA European Tour Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text WELCOME TO PGA EUROPEAN TOUR Welcome to a whole new world of golf! Now you can play same of the most exciting courses on the European Tour while testing your prowess against the finest international players. We've included all of the great features that were in PGA TOUR Golf II, plus we've added some special items to make this game unique. There is a new Shoot-Out play mode as well as a Match Play option, with literally "pounds" of money riding on the outcome of the contests. You'll also notice clear improvements in the graphic presentation of the game which make it more real than ever. So grab your clubs and your passports and head for the links! PGA European Tour Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text CONTROLLING THE GAME Setup If there are more than one of you playing and you each want to use your own controller,(instead of passing one back and forth), you need to set up the system for two or more controllers. One to four people can play PGA European Tour at a time. 1. From the Pro Shop, press Start to reveal the Menu Bar. 2. D-Pad right to reveal the Options Menu. 3. D-Pad down to highlight Setup, and press A. The Setup Box appears. When an option is active on the Setup Box, the letters are brightly lit. When an option is inactive, the letters appear dim. 4. Use the D-Pad to highlight Two or More Controllers, and press B to toggle it on/off. 5. Press A to confirm your choice and return to the play screen. Using Two Controllers When both controller jacks are active, Player #1 and Player #3 use Controller 1, while Player #2 and Player #4 use Controller 2. Using the 4-Way Play Adapter Plug the 4-Way Play into your Genesis, then plug up to four controllers into the adapter, and you're ready to go. Player #3 uses Controller 3 and Player #4 uses Controller 4. NOTE: Six-button controller users who are using the 4-Way Play must play in three-button mode. To configure your six-button controller to three-button mode: 1. Turn off the Genesis. 2. Press and hold the "Mode" button on every six-button controller that will be used while you turn the Genesis on. Your six-button controllers are now configured in three-button mode. PGA European Tour Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text HITTING THE BALL The Stroke Meter and the Accuracy Point The Stroke Meter is the tool you use to determine the strength of your shot. The Accuracy Point is the spot on the Stroke Meter that you use to determine the direction of your shot. An important skill to develop is stopping your swing exactly on the accuracy point; if you do your shot goes straight. If you miss the accuracy point to the right, the ball slices right. If you miss the point to the left, the ball hooks left. The greater your distance from the accuracy point, the greater the degree of the hook or slice. 1. Press B to start your backswing. 2. Press B again to stop your backswing and begin your swing. 3. Press B a third to hit the ball(at the accuracy point). Overswing The area to the left of the 100% mark on the Stroke Meter is the "overswing" area. If you venture into the overswing area, you can increase your potential power and hit the ball farther than the maximum distance potential listed on the Stroke Meter. Be careful if you choose to go into this area; if you fail to hit the accuracy point, the results can be costly. All hooks and slices are magnified in direct proportion to the degree of power you have chosen. Overswing, by definition, eliminates reliability. Draw and Fade Meter You might want to hook or slice the ball intentionally to avoid a hazard. The best way to control a hook or slice is to set the draw/Fade Meter before you swing, then hit the accuracy point as usual. The Draw/Fade Meter is not available when you're putting. * Press and hold C to bring up the Draw/Fade Meter. * D-Pad left/right to adjust the marker. Selecting the Proper Club The program automatically selects a club for every situation, but you don't have to use it. Many factors, including wind and ball lie, can influence your club choice. * To change clubs, D-Pad up/down. The name of the selected club appears at the bottom of the information box in the lower right corner of the screen. Each club has different characteristics, one being its maximum distance potential. When we talk about distance potential, we're referring to total, not aerial, distance. These potentials assume a perfect lie, no wind, and a flat spot for the ball to land so it can bounce and roll. The distance potential of a club is shown at the left side of the Stroke Meter. Calculating Your Shot: There's more to hitting the ball than simply aiming the cross hair and swinging the club. You should take into consideration the wind, the ball lie, your follow-up shot, and the potential hazards on the course itself. Let's say your driver's distance is 270 yards. If you stop your backswing when the Stroke Meter reaches 50%, your shot's calculated distance will be 135 yards, but this can be affected by the above factors. Aiming your Shot: The aiming cross hair(flashing in the middle of the screen when you're about to hit) indicates the direction the ball will travel if you hit square and there is no cross-wind. * To adjust the aiming cross hair, D-Pad left/right. Gauging the Wind: The rotating arrow at the bottom left of the screen indicates the wind speed and direction. Watch out for occasional gusts and pay attention to the weather report given before each round. NOTE: The short irons impart a greater arc to the shot than do woods and long irons. Consequently, the higher the arc of the shot, the more the wind will influence the flight of the ball. DRIVING RANGE Each course has its own Driving range. To prepare for an upcoming tournament, practice all your shots at the Driving Range. xperiment with woods and irons, special shots, and the Draw/Fade Meter. 1. Highlight Driving range on the Play Menu and press A. The program takes you to a Driving Range. 2. To change courses while on the Driving Range, select New Course from the Go to Menu and press A. The Select Course Box appears. 3. Select a Course and press A. 4. To leave the Driving Range, select Pro Shop from the Go to Menu, and press A. PUTTING PGA European Tour allows you to practice putting on any of the greens in the game. good putting can make or break a player, and many a game has been won(or lost!) on the green. Before going on the Tour, you may want to practice your putting. * From the Pro Shop or PGA Tour Tent, highlight Putting Green fro the Play Menu, and press A. Changing Holes or Courses The program automatically takes you to the 1st green of a randomly selected course. To go to a different hole: 1. Pull down the Go to Menu and select Hole. 2. Press A. The Select Hole Box appears. 3. Use the D-Pad up/down or left/right to highlight the hole you want, and press A to confirm. To go to a New Course: 1. Pull down the go to Menu and select New Course. 2. Press A. The Select Course Box appears. 3. D-Pad up/down to highlight the course you want, and press A to confirm. How to Putt The Stroke Meter on the green works just like anywhere else. * To putt, Press B three times. The distance potential of your putter can be changed in increments of 5 feet over a range of 5 to 120 feet. * To change the distance potential, D-Pad up/down. The program randomly chooses pin and ball placement. After you sink a putt, this placement changes. If you want to change the position of the ball or cup before you putt, select Pick up Ball from the Shot Menu and press A. To practice a specific putt over and over again, select Take a Mulligan from the Shot Menu and press A. Grid View When you select a Putting Green, a contour grid showing the topography of the practice hole's putting surface appears on the screen before each hole. A message above the grid reports how far the ball is above or below the pin, and the exact distance to the cup. To get a better view of how the topography affects the roll of the ball, rotate the grid. * To rotate the grid left/right, D-Pad up/down. You may also fine tune your aim by adjusting the aiming cross hair from the contour grid. * To move the cursor left/right, D-Pad left/right. * Press Start to return to the Putting Green. Notice that the aiming cross hair on the green reflects any changes you made on the grid. Also note that the info box in the lower let hand of your screen displays the distance and cup elevation as well. When you're out playing a round and you're on the green or within 40 yards of the cup, you can access the green grid. * Press A when you're on the green to see the grid. * Select Green from the View Menu when you're near the green to see the grid. The Secret to Putting The green grid provides two critical pieces of information: the elevation of the ball with respect to the cup, and the contours of the ball with respect to the cup, and the contours of the putting practice. There are no fixed rules for determining just how much you should compensate with the aiming cross hair for a break, but below are a few reliable guides. * The breaks in the green influence the ball more as the ball slows down. It's more important to compensate for the breaks around the cup than for those directly in front of the ball. * When compensating for a drastic break, keep in mind that the ball must travel farther to the cup and plan your distance accordingly. * Particularly on short putts, it's generally a good idea to hit the ball too hard rather than too soft; don't try to cozy your short putts. On the other hand, if you're "lipping" a lot of your putts, try hitting the ball a little softer. To leave the Putting Green, select Pro Shop from the Go the Menu. VIEWING THE COURSE There are several different ways to view a course. These alternate views give you insight into the potential hazards and help you play the best round of golf possible.

It's here that you name a new player. 1. D-Pad up/down to toggle through the upper and lower case letters(there's a blank space after the capital Z). 2. D-Pad left/right to select a character and move on to the next space. 3. When you're finished naming the golfer, press Start. If you wish to play with an anonymous golfer and not save his stats, press C at the Players Card Screen. You'll play with a generic player(#1, #2, #3, #4) as described above. This feature is only available in a Practice Round. Selecting a Tee After you select your tee, a Club Selection Box appears. You are allowed 14 clubs in your bag including the putter, which you always carry. The clubs in your bag appear in bold type, while those not in your bag appear in a pale type. Before you add a club to your full bag, you must remove one. 1. D-Pad left/right/up/down to highlight the club you wish to remove, then press B. 2. D-Pad left/right/up/down to highlight the club you wish to add, then press B. 3. Repeat this process until you're done, then press A. The Course Selection Box appears. Selecting a Course 1. D-Pad up/down to highlight the course you want. 2. Press A to confirm your choice. An overhead view of the entire course appears, and an announcer gives a brief weather report for the day. The game begins at hole #1. During a Practice Round, you can play through a course in sequential order or skip around. Two or More Players The process of selecting and naming players, selecting clubs and courses, varies a bit when you have two or more human players and you've activated Two or More Controllers on the Setup Menu. Player #1, using Controller 1, always selects the number of players, the player himself, and the course. Each individual player then enters their name with their own Controller, and chooses their golf clubs and tees(during a Practice Round). Let's do a walk though: 1. Three players decide to play a Practice Round and they each decide to use their own controller. Player #1 activates Two or More Controllers on the Setup Menu and selects Practice Round from the Play Menu. 2. Player #1 selects number of players(3). 3. Player #1 selects either a new player, a Genesis pro or an existing player for himself. He enters all tee and club information. 4. A Select Player #2 Screen appears. Player #1 must select with Controller 1 either a new player, a Genesis pro, or an existing player and press A. 5. Player #2, with Controller 2, now enters the information regarding club and tee selection. If he is a new player, he uses his D-Pad to enter to enter his name at the Player's Card Screen. 6. After all three players have finished making their selections, Player #1 selects the course. This process(except for tee selection) is the same for Practice, Skins, Tournament, Match Play and Shoot-Out game modes. Selecting a Hole To go to a Different Hole during a Practice Round: 1. Press Start to highlight the Menu Bar. 2. The Go to Menu is highlighted automatically, as well as the Hole option. Press A to confirm. The Select Hole Box appears. 3. Use the D-Pad to highlight the hole you want, then press A to confirm your selection. You go to the new hole. Changing Courses To Go to a New Course during a Practice Round: 1. Press Start to highlight the Menu Bar. 2. Select New Course from the Go to Menu and press A to confirm. The Select Course Box appears. 3. Use the D-Pad to highlight the course you want, then press A to confirm your selection. After you make your selection, the program shows you an overhead view and then takes you to the first tee of the new course. * To exit a Practice Round, select Pro Shop from the Go to Menu and press A. Taking a Mulligan In a Practice Round, you can take a shot over and over again until you get it just right. * Highlight Take a Mulligan from the Shot Menu, and press A. The program takes you back to your previous lie. Note that the program does not keep statistics for holes on which you take mulligans, except for "Longest Drive." Picking up the Ball If you're doing poorly on a hole and your frustration is mounting, you can pick up your ball and accept a score of 12. * Highlight Pick up Ball from the Shot Menu and press A. TOURNAMENT PLAY Now that you've mastered the basics and perfected your skills, it's time to put it all together and play a tournament. A tournament comprises four full rounds(72 holes) on the same course. Sixty professional golfers, plus one to four players in your party, compete for thousands of pounds in earnings. You must use professional tees and mulligans are not allowed. How to Play Say good-bye to your buddies in the Pro Shop and choose Tournament from the Play Menu. You are asked the same questions as when you played a Practice Round. After you choose your course, an overhead shot of the entire course appears. The Tournament Board then introduces the tournament and total prize money. The Leader Board, which shows the current standings for all tournament participants, appears. Following each ranking is the player's name, score, and the hole he is currently playing. Making the Cut Generally, if you shoot par or better you will make the cut. At the end of the first round, the top 48 players, plus all those players tied for the lowest qualifying score, move on to the second round. At the end of the second round, the top 32 players, plus all those players tied for the lowest qualifying score, move on and so on to the fourth and final round. During Tournament play, you return to the PGA Tour Tent rather than the Pro Shop. SKINS CHALLENGE Two to four players compete in a Skins Challenge for cash. The game is played over the course of 18 holes, with each hole assigned a monetary value. The value of the holes increases as you play and the size of the purse varies depending on the competition and the number of players. In order to win cash, you must win the skin for that specific hole. To win a skin, you must win a hole outright by making a lower score on that hole than each of the other competitors. If two players tie for the lowest score on a given hole, the skin for that hole carries over to the next hole. Theoretically, all 18 skins could ride on the 18th hole. If no one wins the 18th hole, the players return to the 1st hole and continue playing until someone wins the remaining skin(s). Since the total score for the round has no bearing on who wins, when one of the players clinches a skin on a given hole, the other players simply pick up their balls and head to the next hole. This is reflected on the Scorecard. If the winning player scores a 3 for a hole, the other players show a score of 3+ on the scorecard. This means that they would have taken more than 3 strokes to finish the hole, but simply went on as the competition was finished. MATCH PLAY A complete game consists of three rounds with four groups of two playing consecutively. Each round is a single-elimination contest and the competition is fierce. As in Skins, you try to win each hole, but there are variations. Instead of each hole being worth money, it is played for the sake of the score alone. If you tie or "halve" a hole, the score remains the same. At the end of each round, whoever has won the most holes, wins the round and proceeds to the next round of competition. The round continues only so long as there is uncertainty over the outcome. For example, if you have played 16 holes and are down 3 holes, there is no chance that you could tie or win the round, and the round ends. If two players end a round tied, they return to the 1st hole for a sudden death play-off. The winner of that play-off continues on to the next round. The final winner takes all of the money,(there are no earnings for second or third place), so the pressure can be intense by the last round. SHOOT-OUT Based on the Canon SHOOT-OUT Series, in our Shoot-Out play, four players line up to play three holes of golf. At each hole, the player with the highest score is eliminated. The players who score the lowest on each hole continue to the final hole where only two players are left to compete for the final prize. Money is awarded for first and second place. After you select a course, the program randomly selects a starting hole. You play the next three holes in sequence. In the event of more than one player having the highest score at a hole, a one-shot tie-breaker is played. The referee places the ball randomly in a position close to the green. The shot can be a chip or a putt, and each tying player takes the same shot. The player farthest from the hole is eliminated. After each of these tie-breaker sessions, a Summary Box appears displaying the distance of each layer's ball(in inches) from the cup. If after this tie-breaker, players are still tied, then a second tie-breaker is played, and so on. SAVING AND RESTORING Save Game The cartridge is designed to save only one game. When you save a game you overwrite the previously saved game. * Select Save Game from the Options Menu, and press A. The program asks if it's OK to overwrite the previously saved game,(unless you haven't yet saved any). * To overwrite the previously saved game, press A. The game remains saved until another game is saved over it. Restore Game * Highlight Restore Game on the Options Menu, and press A twice. The saved game appears and you continue where you left off. Remember, you can also resume a game after leaving it if you only go to the Pro Shop or PGA Tour tent, and don't exit the program entirely. * Highlight Resume Game on the Play Menu and press A. You return to your game in progress. PGA European Tour Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text FINE POINTS FROM THE MASTER * If you really want to get good at this game, you have to be aware of all the factors that can influence the outcome of a given shot. * Every hole begins at the tee. Check your distance, the wind gauge and the location of hazards. Make sure you hit the accuracy point. * When you're not on the green or the fringe, the fairway is the best place to be. Occasionally, you'll find your ball "in a depression" on the fairway. When your ball is in a depression, the maximum distance for a given club is slightly reduced, and the possibility for a wild shot is slightly increased. * Knowing how to read a green is essential if you want to shoot low scores. The putter is the only club allowed on the green, and the wind is not a factor. * The dark green area surrounding each green is called the fringe. Here you can choose the putter or any other club. If you're using the putter, make sure to use enough force to putt through the fringe. On long shots, you might want to try a chip shot. * The rough reduces the maximum distance potential of any club you select, and increases the effect of a hook or slice. If you're "half-buried in the Rough," these consequences are greater still. * As you might expect, the heavy rough is more undesirable than the ordinary rough. Nowhere is the :flub" factor more ominous. Exercise extreme caution and avoid using the Draw/Fade meter. * At all costs avoid the bunkers, especially the ones along the fairway. it's extremely difficult to make an accurate long shot from the sand. If your ball is "Half-buried in the sand," you might want to go with the sand wedge. Using a longer club(a one or two iron) to get distance is risky: the possibility of blowing the shot increases with a flat iron.

Remember, even the greatest pros return repeatedly to their teachers for reminders about proper swing mechanics and body rotation. Driving Range: To prepare for your upcoming tournaments, you've got to do more than buy a new pair of shoes. You've got to practice all your shots at the Driving Range, if you want to get really good. Experiment with both your woods and your irons, and keep your eye on the wind gauge. Remember, you're not playing under a dome. * Press up or down on the D-Pad to move the red highlight to Driving Range and press A. * Press up or down on the D-Pad to move the red highlight to the course of your choice and press A. The Stroke Bar displays the distance potential of the club you're using, and it lets you control the power and accuracy of your swing. To hit the ball, you need to press B three times. The first press starts your backswing; the second ends the backswing and determines the power of your stroke; and the third press hits the ball and determines whether the shot hooks, slices, or travels straight. 1) Press B to start your backswing. The Power Bar quickly extends left from the Accuracy Point, indicating the growing strength of your backswing. 2) Press B to stop your backswing. Each club has a distance potential, which appears in a box to the left of the Stroke Bar. The percentages below the Bar indicate the percent of the total distance potential you want to use. When the Power Bar reaches the strength you want, press the Stroke Button to stop it. The Bar begins to shrink back toward the Accuracy Point, leaving a small line that marks the spot where you stopped it. 3) Press B to hit the ball. To hit the ball straight, press the Stroke Button when the Power Bar returns to the Accuracy Point. If you stop the Bar exactly on the Accuracy point, you'll hit the ball straight. If you press the Stroke Button before the Bar reaches the Accuracy Point, the ball hooks to the left. If you press the Stroke Button after the Bar has moved beyond (to the right of) the Accuracy Point, the ball slices to the right. Aiming Your Shot: The aiming cross hair (flashing in the middle of your screen) indicates the direction the ball will travel if it is well-hit. To change the position of the cross hair, press left or right on the D-Pad. Wind: The rotating arrow indicates the wind speed and direction. Watch out for occasional wind gusts! Adjust the direction and strength of your strokes to compensate for the wind. Putting Green: You've probably heard of fine players who are long off the tee, with strong middle irons, and sweet short games, but whose concentration completely falls apart once their ball hits the so-called "putting surface." PGA Tour Golf can help you avoid the yips. You can practice putting on different greens, and learn how to "read" them. If you're in the Pro Shop and want to practice your stroke now, press C to display the Play menu. Select Putting Green from the menu and press A. Grid View: After selecting Putting Green, a contour grid shows the topography of the practice green (if the grid does not appear, press A). A message above the grid reports how far your ball is above or below the cup, and the distance to it. To get a better view of how the topography will affect the roll of the ball as you putt, follow the instructions on the screen on how to use the D-Pad to align the ball with the aiming cursor. Press any button on the Controller to move back to the putting green. The aiming cross hair on the green reflects any adjustments you made on the grid. There's no need to re-aim. The Close-up window shows the area around the cup. Whenever you are on the green (or the fringe of the green), and you want to see the grid, press A. How to Putt: The Stroke Bar on the Putting Green works exactly like the Stroke Bar at the Driving Range. To putt the ball, you need to press B three times. You always use a putter when you're on the green. The distance potential of your putter can be adjusted in increments of 5 feet over a range of 5 to 120 feet. To change the distance potential, press up or down on the D-Pad. Practice Round: If you are now feeling up to it, you can opt to play a Practice Round. Hitting the ball works the same as it does for the Driving Range and Putting. If you want to try a stroke again, select Take A Mulligan from the Options menu, and you can take the shot over. You can take multiple mulligans and even "mulligan" your way back to the tee, if you wish. Ball Lie: When your ball is sitting in the fairway or sand, you can press A to see the "lie" of your ball. Every PGA Tour pro knows that ball lie will affect your choice of club and the stroke you use. If you land in the rough, for example, your irons will have a lower distance potential and less accuracy than if you were hitting from the fairway. Special Shots: PGA Tour Golf knows that you're not a pro-yet. Sometimes, the ball doesn't go exactly where you want it to. Sometimes you have to make a special shot to save your par. When that happens, choose Special Shots from the Options menu. From there you can choose to Chip, Punch, or Putt from the Fringe. Instant Replay: Choose Instant Replay to see your last shot again. the trajectory of your ball is traced on the screen. Spectacular shots are automatically replayed. PGA Tour Golf Tournament Play Use Up/Down to scroll text Playing a Tournament and learning to drive a car have one thing in common: you don't know how it feels until you do it. You can hone your strokes on the practice tee, or work all the controls while the car is in the garage, but until you tee it up for money or pull out into the evening rush hour, you really don't know how you'll perform. PGA Tour events put a premium on preparation, mental toughness, and the will to win. If you think you're ready for the exhilarating challenge, choose Tournament from the Play menu. How to Play: After you choose Tournament, you'll need to answer a few questions (the same questions you were asked when you played a Practice Round). Answer each question and press A to confirm you choice (or simply press A in response to each question to accept the default choice). When you're asked to sign in, enter your name with the D-Pad, and press A. An overhead shot of the entire course appears, and then the Tournament Board introduces the tournament and total prize money. In a moment the Leader Board, which shows the current ranking for all tournament participants appears. Following each ranking is the player's name, score and the hole he is currently playing. You can page through the Leader Board by pressing A or B. Press C to cancel and move to the first hole. During Tournament play, you cannot change courses or holes, and no Mulligans are allowed. If you score among the top 48 players after Round 1, you make the cut and move on to Round 2. You have to place in the top 32 to get to Rounds 3 and 4. Good luck! PGA Tour Golf Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Strategy Guide: In this Strategy Guide we outline how to play through most of the situations you'll confront while you play the challenging courses in PGA Tour Golf. We chose the nasty 529 yard par-5 11th hole from the Tournament Players Club at Sawgrass as a representative hole because it includes every element that a Tour pro must consider during a complete tournament round. In The Players Championship, played every year at Sawgrass, the treacherous 11th has demolished the dreams of more than one tournament hopeful. With practice, skill, and judgment you can avoid this fate. Off the Tee: Like all the great pros, you should strive for consistency and good placement off the tee. If you hit like a gorilla but can't control the ball, you'll find yourself in trouble on most of your second shots. Keep in mind that all the TPC courses are designed to penalize risky shots that turn out badly. Watch the aerial fly-bys for important club selection and ball-location comments from our 10 featured PGA Tour pros. They already have learned the rule that it is better to be 20 yards shorter in the fairway than to be in the rough (or worse). How Far Can You Hit It: Club Distance Potential: The distance potential listed to the left of the Stroke Bar defines an Average shot hit at 100% power with no wind, and includes the ball's flight in the air PLUS roll. Remember this when you're about to hit over a sand trap or water hazard: When you have a choice between two clubs, always choose the longer one. You'll land where you wanted to be more often if you use this rule throughout your play. Overswing-Risk vs. Reward: The area to the left of the 100% Power mark on the Stroke Bar is reserved for what we call "overswing." The farther you let the Power Bar go into this area the farther you will be able to hit the ball. But, as with all good things, there's a price to pay. If you don't hit the shot perfectly, that is, smack the ball precisely at the Accuracy Point, the ball can and most likely will react erratically, because you aren't in total control of your swing. Remember: The greater the deviation at the top or bottom of the swing, the more unpredictable the outcome of the shot. A word for the prudent player: Do not stray into the Overswing area if you're trying to hook (draw), or slice (fade) your shot. Overswing, by definition, eliminates reliability even when you're playing the ball straight. It will make your intended hook or slice wildly unpredictable. Toyed with by the Elements: While your ball is traveling through the air, wind can alter its flight. Adjust your aim to compensate for the direction and strength of the wind. Check the wind gauge! It works better than throwing some grass in the air. The stronger the wind, the larger an adjustment you should make. The Driving Range is the place to practice adjusting for the wind. Luckily, after you hit, the wind direction remains constant. Horrible Lies: No, we're not talking about your IRS returns. We mean ball lies. Let's say you hit your drive on the money. Terrific, but where did it land? You've got to check your ball lie. Other than distance to the hole, a Tour pro worries the most about his ball lie. That is, how is the ball sitting on the grass or in the sand? Ball Lie is so important because it affects the amount of backspin you can impart to the ball, how far each club can hit the ball, and how the ball reacts to an imperfect swing. The worse your ball lie, the smaller the amount of backspin imparted to your ball, and the more these factors affect your shot. When you're in the fairway, you can press A to see the lie of your ball. On the Beach-How to play out of a fairway sand trap: If your ball isn't buried in the trap you can hit all of your irons between 50 and 90 percent of their distance potential. When you're in trouble, resist the temptation to try a spectacular saving shot and concentrate on getting your ball back into play. Play conservatively out of the sand and you'll save a lot of pars. If your ball is buried in the sand, it's risky to hit any club longer than a 4 iron. The danger of flubbing a shot out of that lie is too great to risk the few extra yards you might get with a longer club. When you're in the sand, you can press A to see the lie of your ball. The Punch Shot: When you're half-buried in the rough, or buried in the sand, select Special Shots from the Options menu and choose Punch Shot. Use the punch shot to just get the ball back to the fairway from whatever trouble your ball may have found. The distance the ball will travel is shorter than if you took a full swing at the ball, but you're not likely to flub or whiff the shot or shank it and have it sail wildly off your clubface. Go for the green in two? Only for the brave: On this hole you would have to hit a very big drive (300 yards or more) and then cross an ocean of sand to have a reasonable chance of reaching the green in two. Remember that the distance potential listed next to the Stroke Bar is the amount the current club will go in the air PLUS roll. If you are 240 yards away from the pin and try to hit a 3-wood to the green, your ball will skip off the back of the green. A better strategy would be to either: a) take less than a full swing with the 3-wood and try to bounce it onto the green; or b) hit a long iron with overswing and try to fly the ball to the green (via the overswing). The safest play on this hole is to lay-up short of the green and get set up for your third shot, the approach. The Chip Shot: If you are close to the green, or on the fringe, this is the perfect time to use your Chip Shot. This shot will not fly very far in the air. The strategy of the shot is to fly the ball just on to the green and hope it rolls the rest of the way to the hole. If you choose to use the chip shot you should look at the Grid View of the green to read the contours of the green between you and the hole. The moment your ball hits the green it will react to these contours. It is not advisable to use the Chip Shot out of the following lies: Half-buried in light rough, in the sand trap, buried in the sand trap, in heavy rough, and half-buried in heavy rough. Warning: A ball hit as a Chip Shot will stop dead in its tracks if it lands on the fringe. Playing to the green from a bunker: Ball lie in the bunker is critical. The more deeply your ball is buried in the sand, the more it will roll when it hits the green. Bad lies in the sand tend to make the ball release a lot more than good lies. Remember this when you're thinking about how hard to swing at a sand shot. If you are playing your shot out of a trap beside the green, look at the Grid View of the green to see its contours. The ball will be affected by these contours the moment your ball hits the green. Backspin-how to use it: The ability to control the ball with backspin is one of the skills that separates the pros from most of the rest of us. Still it's never too late to learn, and if you want to play on the Tour, it's a necessity. So take a lesson in hitting with backspin. Since any ball you hit with the shorter irons will roll backwards after bouncing on the green (if your shot hits the green on the fly) it's important to know how far you should try to hit shots with these clubs onto the green. Instead of trying to go exactly to the pin, it's probably better to hit the ball just past the hole and rely on the backspin to roll the ball back close to the hole. IMPORTANT: Be very careful in using this strategy if the pin is placed at the back of the green (check the pin placement with the Overhead View if you can't remember where the pin is). Your shot might fly exactly the distance you wanted, but land on the fringe (or worse). If it does land off the green it will not roll back toward the hole (the other surfaces remove the backspin from the ball). Fringe Putting: If you land on the fringe of the green, PGA Tour Golf assumes that you want to putt from the fringe and auto-selects your putter. Sometimes the hole will be too far away to putt and you might want to chip the ball. If you choose a different club for this shot, and then change your mind, select Fringe Putt from Special Shots in the Options menu to get your putter back. Make sure you take a look at the Grid View of the green prior to making your Fringe Putt. The fringe is not as low-cut or smooth as the green so you'll have to putt the ball a little harder. The more fringe between you and the green-the more over the listed distance you'll need to hit your putt. Don't short-arm your putt. Tips on Putting: OK, you made it to the green in good shape. Unfortunately, for a lot of us, this is when the heartache begins. The number of things that can go wrong in such a small place is beyond belief. As experienced hackers, we believe we can get down in two. At least we hope so. We pray! Using the Putting Grid: The pros spent years learning to "read" greens. PGA Tour Golf gives you a hand by providing a grid view of the green that will help read its contours. Follow the instructions on screen to move the grid. Note the elevation between the ball and the cup as well as the distance. This information is printed above the Grid View. You may find that the grid is the best place to aim your putt. Use the D-Pad to align your ball with the aiming cursor. All aiming you do on the grid will be carried back to the normal view when you return to the green. When you're on the green (or just on the fringe), you can press A to see the contour grid of the current green. Putting and the Stroke Bar: Make sure that the distance your ball needs to travel to get to the hole is encompassed by the distance at the end of the Stroke Bar. Change the distance potential so that you can hit most of your putts near the 100% mark. You can change the distance potential of your putter by pressing up or down on the D-Pad. The 5-foot putt is not a Gimme-even to the Pros! If the computer selects the 5-foot distance potential for your putt, the contours on Grid View should not come into play unless the slope is very severe. Hit your putt as close to the 100% mark as possible regardless of the distance between you and the hole. You'll make more short putts, and minimize frustration, if you go for the hole. However, if you notice you are lipping a lot of your putts, it means your aim is good, but you are hitting the ball too hard. Try to back off the power bar a little bit and your ball will fall into the hole more often. Practice Makes Perfect: No one can just walk out on the PGA Tour and putt as well as the best in the World. Use the Putting Green(s) on all the courses to familiarize yourself with how to read the Grid View as well as how hard to hit your putts given their distance and topography. Good luck, and good golfing!

PGA Tour Golf II Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Basics From the House Pro: The most important skill to develop in PGA Tour Golf II is stopping your swing exactly on the accuracy point. If you miss the accuracy point to the right, the ball will slice to the right. If you miss the accuracy point to the left, the ball will hook to the left. The greater your distance from the accuracy point, the greater the degree of the hook or slice. * Press B to start your backswing, press B to stop your backswing and begin your swing, and then press B to strike the ball (at the accuracy point.) You might want to hook or slice the ball to get around a corner or avoid a hazard. The best way to control a hook or a slice is to set the "draw/fade" meter before you swing the club, and to hit the accuracy point as usual. It's not advisable to employ draw or fade when your ball lies in the heavy rough or the sand. The draw/fade meter is not available when you're putting. * Press and hold C to bring up the draw/fade meter. D-Pad left/right to adjust the draw/fade marker. Selecting the Proper Club: The computer automatically selects a club for every situation, but you don't have to use that club. * D-Pad up/down to change club selection. The name of the selected club appears at the bottom of the information box in the lower right corner of the screen. Each club has different characteristics, the most important of which is it's maximum distance potential. A clubs maximum distance potential accounts for the ball lie, and assumes landing and rolling on the fairway. It does not indicate "distance in the air." The maximum distance potential of a club is shown at the left side of the stroke meter. Checking the Wind: The wind indicator is located at the bottom left corner of the screen. The wind effects all shots except for putts. When the arrow is pointing up, the wind is blowing from your back and will add distance to your shot. When the arrow is pointing down, the wind is blowing into your face and will reduce the distance of your shot. When the arrow is pointing right or left, the wind will blow your shot to the right or left respectively. Of course, the stronger the wind, the greater its influence over the shot. Adjusting Your Aim: The flashing cursor at the center of the screen indicates the direction in which the ball will travel immediately after you strike it. On tee shots, the computer places the aiming cursor in the optimum position for a straight shot with no wind. On all subsequent shots, the computer places the aiming cursor directly in line with the pin, regardless of whether the pin is visible on the screen. It's always up to you to compensate for the wind, either by using the draw/fade meter, or by adjusting your aim. When you're faced with an obstacle that prohibits you from aiming straight at the pin, you'll find it useful to go to the hole browser for an elevated look at the problem. Once you learn to use the draw/fade meter in conjunction with the aiming cursor and the wind, bending your shots around corners becomes an exciting challenge. * D-Pad left/right to adjust the aiming cursor. Measuring Your Shot: Hitting the accuracy point won't help you if you don't measure your shot correctly. The distance of your shot is determined when you stop the power bar in the backswing. In order to decide where to stop the power bar, you have to do a little quick arithmetic. For example, let's say your ball is lying cleanly on the fairway 120 yards from the pin. The computer selects the nine iron, which in this circumstance has a distance potential of 131 yards. The wind is blowing across the fairway to your right at 15 mph. Before you hit the ball, you'll want to move the aiming cursor to the left several increments to compensate for the wind. Now you have to decide how far up the stroke meter you want to let the power bar run before you stop it. First consider that 120 yards is roughly 90 percent of 131 yards. Then realize that the strong crosswind is going to slow up the ball, and that the ball will actually have to travel farther than 131 yards to reach the pin since your aim is to the left of center. Finally, account for a certain amount of backspin on the ball. In the final analysis, it's probably best to stop the power bar just a hair shy of 100 percent and, of course, hit the accuracy point right on the button. Overswing: The area to the left of the 100 percent mark on the stroke meter is called the "overswing area". If you venture into the overswing area, you can actually hit the ball farther than the maximum distance listed on the stroke meter. But if you don't hit the accuracy point, the results can be costly. Any hook or slice will be magnified according to how far into the overswing area you actually went. Hitting the accuracy point becomes especially important when you decide to pull out all the stops. Fine Points From the Master: If you really want to get good at this game, you have to be aware of all the factors that can influence the outcome of a given shot. Ball Lie: There are seven surfaced where the ball can lie: tee, fairway, green, fringe, rough, heavy rough, and sand. The latter four surfaces pose unique problems for the golfer. First, let's talk about the more desirable surfaces. * Press A when not on the tee or the green to see the ball lie. The Tee: Every hole begins at the tee. All you have to worry about here is the wind, the aiming cursor, and your ability to hit the accuracy point. The Fairway: When you're not on the green or the fringe, it's best TO be on the fairway. Occasionally, you'll find your ball "in a depression" on the fairway. No, we're not talking about a black mood. When your ball is in a depression, the maximum distance for a given club is slightly reduced, and the possibility of a wild shot increases if you decide to use a wood or a long iron. The Green: Knowing how to read a green is essential if you want to shoot low scores. The computer allows you to use only the putter, and the wind is not a factor. The Fringe: The dark green area surrounding each green is called the fringe. Here you can choose the putter or any other club. If you're using the putter, make sure to strike the ball extra-hard when there's a lot of fringe to putt through. When there's only a little fringe to putt through, the fringe will have little effect on the putt. On long shots from the fringe, you might want to try a chip shot. The Rough: The rough reduces the maximum distance potential of whatever club you select, and it increases the effect of a hook or slice. Even if you strike the ball exactly on the accuracy point, your shot might hook or slice a bit. If the ball winds up "Half-buried in the Rough", the maximum distance potential of the clubs is further reduced, and the degree of hook or slice becomes even more unpredictable. Also, there's a chance that you'll flub the shot altogether, especially if you choose a wood or a long iron. The Heavy Rough: As you might expect, the heavy rough is more undesirable than the ordinary rough. Here, the distance potential of the clubs is further reduced, and the outcome of your shot becomes even more unpredictable. It can be dangerous to attempt a long shot from the heavy rough. If you find yourself "Half-Buried in the Heavy Rough", you must exercise even more caution. Nowhere is the "flub" factor more ominous. Also, we suggest that you not use the draw/fade meter when you're hitting from heavy rough. The Sand: At all costs avoid the sand traps, especially the ones along the fairway. It's very difficult to make an accurate long shot from the sand. The distance of your clubs is greatly increased. When your ball is "Half-Buried in the Sand" the program will almost certainly select the sand wedge, which is the best club for scooping the ball out of the sand. Using a longer club (such as a one or two iron) to get greater distance is risky, as there's a good possibility of flubbing the shot with a flat iron. We advise against using the draw/fade meter when you're lying in the sand. On short shots from the sand, the ball will roll forward after it hits the green. The number on the shot meter indicates the distance the ball will travel before it lands, so you should measure the shot so that the ball lands well in front of the cup. The longer the shot, the farther the ball will roll after it lands on the green. Special Shots: Your ball lie and your distance to the cup should determine your shot selection. Normally, the program decides the best shot-type for your situation, but you might not agree. To change the shot-type, you have to go up to the menu bar. * Press Start to highlight the menu bar. D-Pad right to display the shot menu. D-Pad down to highlight the shot you wish to perform. Press A to select that shot-type. Normal Shot: The normal shots are "drive", "shoot", "pitch", "blast" and "putt". You "drive" from the tee. You "shoot" when you're far from the pin on the fairway, rough or heavy rough. You "pitch" when you're close to the pin on any surface. You "blast" when you're in a sand trap. You "putt" when you're on the green or the fringe. But bear in mind that, whenever you're not on the green, you can elect to "chip" or "punch" the ball. Chip Shot: Normally, you'll use a chip shot when you're close to the pin but not on the green. The maximum distance of a chip shot is 52 yards (that being with the driver), but you really shouldn't chip from that far out. The number on the shot meter indicates the total distance of the shot after the ball lands on the green and rolls to a stop. Be sure to check the Green Grid before you chip the ball, and keep in mind that the ball will be airborne over the nearest part of the green on a short chip. The standard rule of thumb when chipping is that the ball will travel in the air approximately half the club's total distance potential, and it will roll the other half of the way, depending on the slope of the green of course. Punch Shot: The punch shot should be used exclusively for "half-buried" and "buried" situations. You have to give up some distance when you punch the ball, but the chances of flubbing the shot are greatly reduced. Be aware that the program will never select the punch shot for you, so when you find yourself buried in the sand or half-buried in one of the rough surfaces, it's up to you to select the punch shot. Fringe Putt: Remember that when you're on the fringe you don't have to putt the ball. The program will always select the fringe putt, but if you'd rather chip, pitch, or punch, you can choose to do so. Now, if you change your shot type and then change your mind, you can select "Fringe Putt" from the shot menu. Roll and Backspin When aiming for the green, you'll want to account for the amount of roll or backspin on the ball. You get backspin only on the green and only when using a short iron and only when shooting from the fairway or off the tee. Backspin takes effect after the first bounce. The ball hits the green, bounces forward, then grabs on the second bounce and rolls backward. If you hit the green with a wood from far away, the ball will rocket off the putting surface into the rough or sand beyond. If you hit the green with a medium or long iron, there's a chance the ball will stop on the green after the first bounce, if the green is large enough. The Secret to Putting The green grid provides two critical pieces of information: the elevation of the ball with respect to the cup, and the contours of the putting surface. The distance between the ball and the cup is listed in both the info box on the golf course screen and on the putting grid screen. If the ball is more than a few inches above the cup, you'll want to hit it softly. If the ball is more than a few inches below the cup, you'll want to hit it extra hard. With practice, the strength of your putt will become second nature. * Press A when on the green to see the green grid. Press any button to return to golf course. * D-Pad up/down to rotate the grid left/right. It's reading the breaks of a green that poses the greatest problem. When the lines that form the boxes on the grid are unbroken, the green is as flat as a pool table. When the green is absolutely flat, you need only putt the ball with the proper strength, and hit the accuracy point perfectly, to sink it. When the squares between the ball and the club are broken downward to the left, the green is sloped to the left. If the squares are broken downward to the right, the green slopes to the right. You have to compensate for these slopes with the aiming cursor if you want the ball to have a chance of falling into the cup. * D-Pad left/right to move the cursor left/right. There is no hard-and-fast rule for determining just how much to compensate for breaks in the green, but you will certainly improve with practice. Below are a few reliable rules of thumb. 1. The breaks in the green effect the ball more as the ball slows down. This means that it's more important to compensate for the breaks around the cup than for those directly in front of the ball. 2. When compensating for a drastic break, keep in mind that the ball will be traveling farther to the cup since it's not following the straight path between two points. In such a case, make sure you add a little distance to the putt. 3. Particularly on short putts, it's generally a good idea to hit the ball too hard rather than too soft. Don't try to cozy in your short putts. PGA Tour Golf II Other Features Use Up/Down to scroll text Viewing the Course: The Overhead view is best used in measuring long shots, particularly when there are hazards or trees involved. When you're on the tee, * Press A to bring up the Overhead view. * Press any button to return to the golf course. When you're between the tee and the green, * Press Start to highlight the Menu Bar. * D-Pad right to View (Overhead is already highlighted). * Press A. * Press any button to return to golf course. When in the Overhead view screen, you can move the cursor with the D-Pad to measure the distance between your ball and any other spot on the course. In this way, you can determine exactly what you need to do to put the ball just where you want it. * Press A (unless you're on the green) to check your ball lie. * Press A when you're on the green to see the green grid. * Select Green from the View menu when you're near the green to see the green grid. Fly-By Hole Preview: The Fly-By Hole Preview appears at the beginning of every hole. It not only gives you a sweeping aerial view of the hole, but a pro appears on the screen and offers advice on how to play the hole. This feature is particularly useful for beginning players. * Press Start to bypass the Fly-By Hole Preview, or go to the Setup box in the Options menu to deactivate it. Hole Browser: The Hole Browser provides a user-controlled fly-by of the entire hole and offers much more detail than either the Overhead View or the Fly-By Preview. This can be very useful on your approach shot, so you can see exactly where the hazards and obstacles are positioned in relation to the cup and to your ball lie. * Select Hole Browser from the View menu. * D-Pad up/down/left/right to browse the hole. * Press B to switch views. * Press C to resume game. * Press Start for Help instructions. Stats: The program keeps the stats for up to 16 saved human players and all the computer controlled pros. A player's stats are updated every time s/he plays in a tournament or a skins challenge, but not in practice rounds. Some of the stats are self-explanatory. Below is an explanation of the statistical categories that might not be so obvious. Driving Acc.: This stands for "Driving Accuracy." An accurate drive is one that stops on the fairway or the green. This stat shows the percentage of times the player drives the fairway or the green. Greens in Reg.: This stands for "Greens in Regulation." On a par 3, the ball must lie on the green after your drive to be considered on the green in the regulation number of strokes. On a par 4, the ball must lie on the green after your second shot. On a par 5, the ball must lie on the green after your third shot. The stat shows the percentage of times the player makes the green in the regulation number of strokes. Putts/G.I.R. (Greens in Regulation): This is the average number of putts it takes you to sink the ball in the hole when your reach the green in regulation and putt no more than twice to hole out. Reaching the green in regulation and "two-putting" is the standard recipe for "par." The stat here shows the average number of strokes it takes for the golfer to hole out when he reaches the green in regulation. Par Breakers: These are those holes in which a player beats ("breaks") par. The stat here shows the percentage of times the player breaks par. Par Saves: These are those holes in which a player shoots or breaks par without making the green in regulation. Avg. Par: These stats indicate the average number of strokes a player takes on the par 3s, 4s and 5s, respectively. * Press C to exit. Practice Play: The Practice Round mode offers more flexibility of play without the "money" pressure. We recommend that you play a few practice rounds with one or more computer-controlled pros in your party before you move on to the Tournament or Skins Challenge. That way you'll get some idea of what you'll be up against when decide to play for money. * Select Practice Round from the Play menu and press A. Then, select the number of players you want, select which players you want, and name the new players if you want. Tee Selection: Once you select a player, the program asks you to select a tee-off position for that player. Amateur Tees are closer to the green than Professional Tees. * D-Pad left/right to highlight the tees of your choice, and then press A to confirm your selection. Golf Bag: You are allowed 13 clubs in your bag, in addition to your putter, which you always carry. Before you add a club to your full bag, you must remove one. The clubs in your bag appear in bold type. The clubs not in your bag appear in pale type. * D-Pad left/right/up/down to highlight the club in bold type you wish to remove, and then press B. * D-Pad left/right/up/down to select the club in pale type you wish to add, and then press B. * Repeat the above process until you're satisfied with your selection of clubs, and then Press A. You must choose a tee-off position and a golf bag for every player you select before you choose your golf course. Course Selection: Once you've set up all the players in your party, the course selection box appears. * D-Pad up/down/left/right to highlight the course of your choice, then press A to confirm your choice. The program will start you off on hole #1, and you'll play through all the holes on the course in sequence unless you choose not to. Hole Selection: The great thing about Practice Round mode is that you can use it to practice individual holes you might have had trouble with earlier. You need not play the holes in order. * Press Start to highlight the menu bar. The Go To menu is highlighted automatically, as well as the Hole option. * Press A. The Select Hole box appears. * Use the D-Pad to highlight the hole of your choice, and then press A to select the hole. You can play a hole as many times as you wish. The scorecard shows your most recent score on the hole. New Course: You can change golf courses at any time during a practice round. Simply select New Course from the Go To menu. The Select Course box appears. After you make your selection, the program shows you an overhead view and then takes you to the first tee of the new course. Take a Mulligan: In a practice round, you can take back a shot and try it again. * Highlight Take a Mulligan from the Shot Menu and press A. The program will take you back to your previous lie. If you wish, you can keep taking mulligans until you get back to the tee. Note that the program will not keep statistics for holes on which you take mulligans, except for "Longest Drive." Pick Up Ball: If you're doing so poorly on a hole that you're in danger of taking more than 12 strokes (or if you're just frustrated and want to move on) you can pick up your ball and accept a score of 12. The Pick up Ball option is probably most useful in the Skins Challenge. * Highlight Pick up Ball on the shot Menu and press A. Putting Green: PGA Tour Golf II allows you to practice putting on any of the 126 greens in the game. You'll find that some greens are much more uneven than others, and it's on these difficult greens that you might want to practice your putting. * Highlight Putting Green from the Play menu at the Pro Shop or PGA Tour tent, and then press A. * Highlight the course of your choice, and then press A. The program will automatically take you to the 1st green. If you want to go to a different green, pull down the Go To menu and select Hole as explained in the Practice Round section above. The program places the ball and the cup randomly on the green. As soon as you sink the ball in the cup, the program places the ball and the cup in different, randomly chosen spots. But you need not sink the putt to change the spot of the ball. * Select Pick up Ball from the Shot menu to change the spot of the ball and the cup. You may find yourself faced with a particularly challenging putt which you're unable to sink on your first attempt. No problem. You can practice the same putt over and over again until you sink it. * Select Take a Mulligan from the Shot menu to retry a putt. You can also change courses just like in Practice Round. * Select New Course from the Go To menu. Driving Range: Each course has its own driving range, lined by the same trees found on the course. The driving ranges are useful in practicing your driving accuracy, wind adjustment, power measurement, as well as in experimenting with the Draw and Fade meter and the Chip and Punch shots. * Highlight Driving Range on the Play menu and press A. * Select a course from the Select Course Box. If you're in the middle of a round and decide to practice your driving, you need not select a course, The program will automatically take you to the driving range at the course you're currently playing. Tournament Play: When you get good enough that you think you can play with the pros (which generally means averaging par or better over the long haul) you should enter a tournament and put your mettle to the test. A tournament encompasses four full rounds (72 holes) on the same course. Sixty professional golfers, plus one to four players in your party, compete for hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash. You are required to use professional tees, and mulligans are not allowed. Generally, if you shoot par or better you will make the cut. At the end of the first round, the top 48 players, plus all those players tied for the lowest qualifying score, move on to the second round. At the end of the second round, the top 32 players, plus all those tied for the lowest qualifying score, advance to the third round. Often more than 32 players qualify for the third round. In such cases, the cut is reapplied at the end of the third round. Just as before, the top 32 players, plus all those tied for the lowest qualifying score, advance to the fourth round. While there is obviously no cut after the fourth and final round, you can fail to finish "in the money", which to some feels worse than having been cut in one of the earlier rounds. It is in the fourth round that thousands, tens of thousands, and maybe even hundreds of thousands of dollars can ride on a single putt or chip. Money is apportioned out according to score at the end of the fourth round, the winner or winners taking the lion's share. Skins Challenge: Two to four players compete in a Skins Challenge for cash. The game is played over the course of 18 holes, with each hole assigned a dollar value. The value of the holes increases as you play, so that the holes on the back nine are worth much more than the holes on the front nine. The size of the total purse varies from competition to competition, depending in part on the number of players competing. In order to win cash, you must win skins. Each hole contains one skin, so there are 18 skins in all. To win a skin, you must win a hole outright, which means you have to make a lower score on that hole than each of the other players. The more players there are, the more difficult that is to do. If two or more players tie for the lowest score on a given hole, the skin for that hole (which amounts to money) is carried over to the next hole. Now you are playing for two skins. If two or more players tie for the lowest score on that hole, then the two skins are carried over to the following hole, and so on. Theoretically, all 18 skins could ride on the 18th hole. Now, if no one wins the 18th hole, the players return to the 1st hole, and play continues until someone wins the remaining skin(s). Since the total score for the round has no bearing on who wins and who loses, when one of the players clinches a skin on a given hole, the other players simply pick up their balls and head to the next hole. No statistics (except Longest Drive) are kept on holes for the player(s) forced to pick up their balls. PGA Tour Golf II Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Use the Punch Shot when your ball is buried or half-buried. You'll reduce the distance, but also reduce your chances of a flub. * Use a chip shot when you're close to the green, but not the pin.

The Genesis gives you a default selection of clubs, but you can change this to suit your needs. You also have the choice between Amateur and Pro tees. Amateur tees are closer to the green and are only available during Practice Rounds. TO SELECT CLUBS AND TEES: NOTE: Follow these steps for each player . 1. D-Pad up/down to view all available clubs. The cursor moves accordingly to highlight each club. 2. Press B or D-Pad left/right to remove a club from your bag. (Before you can add a club, you must remove one.) 3. Move the cursor to the club you want and press B or D-Pad left/right to add the club. 4. When you're done selecting your clubs, press A to return to the Players Card. Now you can select your tees. 5. Press B or the D-Pad in any direction to toggle between Amateur and Professional tees. Once you've made your selections, you're ready to play some golf. * To exit the Player Setup screen, press START; an overhead of the entire course appears. * To exit the overhead, press START. John Shrader appears with a weather report and the course statistics. Press START again to go to the first hole. NEW HOLE: In a Practice Round you have the option to play any hole you want. TO GO TO A NEW HOLE: 1. Press START. The game pauses and the Pause Menu appears. 2. D-Pad down to NEW HOLE. D-Pad left/right to cycle through the different holes. 3. Press START to go to the new hole. The round continues from the hole you selected. TAKING A MULLIGAN: When you're new to a course, having the option to take a Mulligan can be a real boon. TO TAKE A MULLIGAN: 1. Press Start. The game pauses and the Pause Menu appears. 2. D-Pad down to TAKE A MULLIGAN, and press START. The program takes you back to the previous lie. HITTING THE BALL: THE BALL LIE WINDOW: The Ball Lie Window shows you what kind of terrain the ball is resting on. Ball Lie is all important when selecting your shot type, so it is here that you make that determination, as well as adjusting the Draw/Fade and Arc meters. If Auto Ball Lie is ON, this window appears automatically before every shot whenever the ball lies between the tee and the green. If Auto Ball Lie is OFF, you can still access this view. * To display the Ball Lie Window, press C. * To change shot types, press A or B. The shot types available are Normal, Punch, Chip and Fringe (for putting from the fringe). DRAW AND FADE METER: You might want to hook or slice the ball intentionally to avoid a hazard. The best way to control a hook or slice is to set the Draw/Fade meter before you swing. * To adjust the Draw/Fade meter from the Ball Lie Window, D-Pad left/right. The more you increase the number for draw, the more the ball hooks to the left; the more you increase the number of fade, the more it slices to the right. ARC METER: There's a new feature in PGA TOUR Golf III which increases shot control. Use the Arc meter to change the amount of arc you give the ball. When you hit under the ball, you increase the arc; when you top it off, you decrease the arc. More arc means less roll on landing and vice versa. * To adjust the arc meter, D-Pad up/down. Ball Lie also affects the amount of adjustments you can make on your shot. Below is a table with lies and their corresponding restrictions. KEY: Low Arc (LA), High Arc (HA), Draw (D) and Fade (F). TEED UP: (LA)9, (HA)9, (D)9, (F)9 FAIRWAY: (LA)9, (HA)9, (D)9, (F)9 FAIRWAY-DIVOT: (LA)7, (HA)7, (D)7, (F)7 ROUGH: (LA)5, (HA)5, (D)5, (F)5 ROUGH 1/2 BURIED:..(LA)3, (HA)3, (D)3, (F)3 DEEP ROUGH: (LA)2, (HA)2, (D)2, (F)2 DEEP ROUGH1/2 BURIED: (LA)0, (HA)0, (D)0, (F)0 SAND: (LA)3, (HA)9, (D)4, (F)4 SAND BURIED: (LA)0, (HA)5, (D)0, (F)0 STROKE METER: The Stroke meter determines the strength of your shot. The Accuracy point is the spot on the Stroke meter that determines the direction of your shot. An important skill to develop is stopping your swing exactly on this point-if you do, your shot goes straight. If you miss the point to the right, the ball slices right; miss left and the ball hooks left. The greater the distance from the accuracy point, the greater the degree of hook or slice. 1. Press B to start your backswing. 2. Press B again to stop your backswing and begin your swing. 3. Press B a third time to hit the ball (at the accuracy point). CHANGING CLUBS AND DISTANCE POTENTIAL: The program automatically selects a club for every situation, but you don't have to use it. Many factors, including wind and ball lie, can influence your club choice. * To change clubs, D-Pad up/down. Each club has different characteristics, one being it's maximum distance potential. These potentials assume a perfect lie, no wind and a flat spot for the ball to land so it can bounce and roll. OVERSWING: The area to the left of the 100% mark on the Stroke Meter is the "overswing" area. If you venture into this area, you can increase your potential power and hit the ball farther than the distance potential listed on the Stroke meter. EA TIP: Be careful if you choose to go into this area; if you fail to hit the accuracy point, the results can be costly. All hooks and slices are magnified in direct proportion to the degree of power you have chosen. GAUGING THE WIND: The rotating arrow at the bottom left of the screen indicates the wind speed and direction. Watch out for occasional gusts and pay attention to the weather report given before each round. EA TIP: The short irons impart a greater arc to the shot than do woods and long irons. Consequently, the higher the arc of the shot, the more the wind influences the flight of the ball. Be sure to take this into consideration when choosing clubs and when adjusting the arc meter. CALCULATING YOUR SHOT: There's more to hitting the ball than simply aiming the cursor and swinging the club. You should take into consideration the wind, the ball lie, your follow-up shot and the potential hazards on the course itself. 50% of a driver's distance potential of 260 yards might be 130 yards, but all of the above factors can change that standard calculation. Experience and practice are your most reliable guides on the course. AIMING YOUR SHOT: The aiming cursor (flashing in the middle of the screen when you're about to hit) indicates the direction the ball will travel if you hit the ball square and there's no cross wind. * To adjust the aiming cursor, D-Pad left/right. PUTTING: The Stroke meter on the green works just like anywhere else. * To putt, press B three times. The distance potential of your putter can be changed in increments of 5 feet over a range of 5 to 180 feet. * To change the distance potential, D-Pad up/down. GRID VIEW: When you're out playing a round and you're on the green or within 40 yard of the cup, you can access the green grid. If auto green grid is on, this occurs automatically. * To view the grid, press A. A contour grid showing the topography of the putting surface appears. A message above the grid reports how far the ball is over or below the pin and the exact distance to the cup. To get a better view of how the topography affects the roll of the ball, rotate the grid. * To rotate the grid left/right, D-Pad up/down. You can fine tune your aim by adjusting the aiming cursor from the contour grid. * To move the cursor left/right, D-Pad left/right. * To return to the green, press START. Notice that the aiming cursor on the green reflects any changes you made on the grid. PGA Tour III Play Modes Use Up/Down to scroll text TOURNAMENT: Now that you've mastered the basics and perfected your skills, it's time to put it all together and play a tournament. A tournament comprises four full rounds (72 holes) on the same course. Sixty professional golfers, plus one to four players in your party, compete for thousands of dollars. HOW TO PLAY: Select TOURNAMENT from the Game Setup screen. After making your selections from the Player Setup screen, an overhead of the course appears, followed by a course introduction with John Shrader. Here you learn about the upcoming tournament and the prize money. John also gives up to the minute weather reports. * To scroll through the introductory text, D-Pad up/down. The course statistics appear, followed by the Leader Board. This shows the current standings for all tournament participants. After each ranking are the player's name, score and the hole he/she is currently playing. * To exit any screen, press START. MAKING THE CUT: Generally, if you shoot par or better you'll make the cut. At the end of the first round all players will move on to the second round. At the end of the second round, the top 32 players, plus all the players tied for the lowest qualifying score, move on and so on to the fourth and final round. SKINS: Two to four players compete in a Skins Challenge for cash. Played over the course of 18 holes, each hole is assigned a monetary value. The value increases as you play and the size of the purse varies depending on the competition and the number of players. In order to win cash, you must win the skin for that specific hole. To win a skin, you must win a hole outright by making the lowest score on that hole. If two players tie for the lowest score, the skin for that hole carries over to the next hole. Theoretically, all 18 skins could ride on the 18th hole. If no one wins the 18th hole, the players return to the 1st hole and continue playing until someone wins the remaining skin(s). Since the total score for the round has no bearing on who wins, when one of the players clinches a skin on a given hole, the other players simply pick up their balls and head to the next hole. MATCH PLAY: One to two players compete against each other or against a Genesis pro in three rounds of Match play. A complete game consists of three round with four groups of two playing consecutively. Each round is a single-elimination contest and the competition is fierce. As in Skins, you try to win each hole, but there are variations. Instead of each hole being worth money, it is being played for the sake of the score alone. If you tie or "halve" a hole, the score remains the same. At the end of the round, whoever has won the most holes, wins the round and proceeds to the next. A round continues only so long as there is uncertainty over the outcome. If two players end a round tied, they return to the first hole for a sudden death play-off. The winner of that play-off continues on to the next round. The final winner takes all the money, (there are no earnings for second and third place), so the pressure can be intense by the last round. SHOOT-OUT: In EA Sports Shoot-out play, four players line up to play three holes of golf. At each hole, the player with the highest score is eliminated. The player who scores the lowest on each hole continue to the final hole where only two players are left to compete for the final prize. Money is awarded to first and second place. After you select a course, the program randomly selects a starting hole. You play the next three holes in sequence. If two or more players tie, a one-shot tie-breaker is played. The referee places the ball randomly in a position close to the green. The shot can be a chip or a putt and each tying player takes the same shot. The player farthest from the hole is eliminated. After each of the tie-breaker sessions, a Summary Box appears displaying the distance of each player's ball (in inches) from the cup. If players are still tied, then a second tie-breaker is played, and so on. DRIVING RANGE/PUTTING GREEN: Designed for one player only, the Driving Range and the Putting Green are great for practice and polish. While at the Driving Range, change clubs and shot types: try out your irons as well as woods. Practice with the Draw/Fade and Arc meters. * To change clubs, D-Pad up/down. When you select Putting Green as your Play mode, you can choose any hole on any course to play. Get a real feel for the greens before you enter a Tournament. * To go to a new hole, select NEW HOLE from the Pause menu.

PGA Tour III Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text THE SECRET TO PUTTING: Reading the breaks of a green can be tricky and requires some practice. There are no fixed rules for determining just how much you should compensate with the aiming cursor for a break, but below are a few reliable guides. * The breaks in the green influence the ball more as the ball slows down. It's more important to compensate for the breaks around the cup than for those directly in front of the ball. * When compensating for a drastic break, keep in mind that the ball must travel farther to the cup and plan your distance accordingly. * Particularly on short putts, it's generally a good idea to hit the ball too hard rather than too soft; don't try to cozy your short putts. * On the other hand, if you're "lipping" a lot of your putts, try hitting the ball a little softer.

He's very quick at learning new ways to destroy enemies. Hugh has more brain than muscle, so he can't carry heavy weapons. Kain: This young man's only desire is to work with machinery. But a strangeness always overcomes him and he ends up thrashing any machine he can find. Kain now wants to use his wrecking powers against the enemy. Shir: Because she always had everything she wanted, Shir turned to stealing for kicks. At times she'll disappear suddenly. When she returns, Shir may have something of great value to your success.

Some clothes are lightweight; others are so heavy they are used as armor. Clothes made of laconia, titanium, crystal, or ceramic are sturdy and nearly indestructible. Any clothes named after Nei are of the highest strength, quality, and power. Wearing combat clothes increases your powers, and sometimes supplies you with certain magics.

STATE: Choose State to give your comrades a physical checkup, and to rearrange their order in the group. Choose State in the box that appears to check the condition of all the comrades. A box opens for each comrade. * Hit points (HP) is life power. The number on the left is the current HP. The number on the right is the maximum HP available. If the current HP reaches 0, that person dies. * Technique Points (TP) is technique power. The number on the left is the current TP. The number on the right is the maximum TP available. The current TP decreases when the person uses a technique. If the current TP reaches 0, they won't be able to use any techniques. * The Level (LV) number depends on the comrade's performance. Courage in battle and other activities all count towards raising the level. * The amount of meseta (MST) the group has at this point appears in the box at the left of the screen. Choose Order to rearrange the lineup of your comrades. In the boxes that appear next, you'll select who leads the group, and then how the others will be arranged.

It also decreases the TP of the person who uses it. STRENGTH: Strength lets you check on your comrades' strength by looking at their physical condition and equipment. * Choose a comrade. Four boxes open up. * The box at the top left shows that person's level, profession, and battle experience (EXP) points. * The box at the top right shows that person's HP and TP. The numbers to the left are the current points that person has. The numbers to the right are the maximum points that person is able to earn. * The box at the lower left shows what equipment that person is wearing and carrying. * The box at the bottom right shows personal characteristics: Strength: As strength increases, the maximum HP points also increase. The person will be able to withstand more injuries, and damage the enemy more effectively and severely. Mental: As mental awareness increases, the maximum HP points also increase. This, along with restored current TP, give the person the ability to use more techniques. Agility: A person becomes more coordinated in battle as this number increases. Luck: Techniques become more effective as luck increases. Dexterity: Handling weapons in battle increases a person's dexterity and the amount of injury that one can inflict on the enemy. Attack: The measure of a person's attack skills Defense: The measure of a person's defense skills increase. * Finally, press Button C to see the techniques the comrade has mastered. The box on the left lists techniques for healing injuries. The box on the right shows attack and defense techniques. EQUIPMENT: Choose this to equip your party for battle.

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME COMBAT AND MORE TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Phantasy Star IV Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text The Hunter's Quest Two thousand years ago, in the Algon solar system, there was a war fit to end all wars. The civilization that emerged from the wreckage flourished and prospered, until the fateful day when Mother Brain--the central computer system on the planet of Parma--exploded. Parma was destroyed, initiating the slow destruction of the same worlds that Mother Brain was built to protect. The ancient maintenance subsystems, which were built with the last great technological knowledge not lost in the war, began to break down. Their malfunctions released terrible creatures upon the worlds the systems were built to maintain and protect. A caste of warriors known as Hunters emerged. They were mercenaries who specialized in exterminating the creatures that plagued the simple cities and villages. Our story begins on the world of Motavia, over two thousand years after the Great War. A young Hunter named Chaz is about to embark on his first assignment. He doesn't know it yet, but his adventure will take him beyond Motavia, and beyond history itself.

When an attack occurs, the Combat screen appears. You make your first move with the Response Window. Highlight the desired option and press Button A or C. COMD: (Command) This option lets you choose to use weapons, Techniques, Skills or Items, or to defend for one round of Combat. MACR: (Macro) Use a pre-set attack pattern, as programmed in the Camp menu. (In the beginning, there is only one macro set.) Select one of the eight macros available. A description of the macro appears to the right. Press Button A or C to start the macro. RUN: Select this option to make a strategic withdrawal. However, escape is not always possible, and you run the risk of leaving your entire party open to attack. Commands: If you selected COMD, press Button A or C to see the resources of the character who appears on screen. Characters receive Commands in the order set in Camp. Attack: This lets the character attack with the weapon currently equipped. Technique: This opens the Technique window. The names of Techniques are displayed along with the Technique Points (TP) required for each. Techniques requiring more TP than your character has appear in red and can't be used. Select the desired Technique and press Button A or C. In the case of a helping Technique, such as an antidote or boost, an arrow appears in the Status windows indicating which character is to receive the benefits of the Technique. Press the D-Pad left or right to indicate the desired character and press Button A or C. Skill: This opens the Skill window. The names of Skills are displayed along with the number of times each Skill can be used. Skills that appear in red are depleted. The procedure is the same as selecting a Technique. Item: This lets the character use Items such as restoratives or antidotes. The procedure is the same as selecting a Technique or Skill. Defense: This puts the character in a defensive position that makes it less likely for him or her to be hit. As you select a command for each character, the symbol for that command appears in that character's window. If you selected a tactic that is effective on one enemy only, an arrow appears above one of the enemies. Choose your foe by pressing the D-Pad LEFT or RIGHT, then pressing Button A or C. You can cancel a command by pressing Button B until the symbol disappears. Then select a new command. When all commands are set, the round of battle starts. After each attack, the amount of damage is displayed for each enemy or character. The enemy vanishes when its HP is depleted. If a character's HP reaches 0, the character is Near Death. A flatline icon appears in that character's window, and the character is out of action until a suitable remedy is used, or he or she is taken to an Inn to recuperate. The battle ends when all enemies are defeated. A display tells you how many experience points, Mesetas, Skills and Techniques your characters have picked up as a result of the battle. Combination Attacks Two or more characters can join Techniques and Skills to form powerful Combination Attacks. For example, Rune's Wat Technique can be combined with Chaz's Zan Technique to form a Blizzard Attack. A three-way combination results in the Triblaster. In order to combine the moves, the attacks must occur in succession (i.e. for the Blizzard Attack, Chaz's Zan must immediately follow Rune's Wat). Since characters attack in a descending order of power (most powerful attacks come first), you must assign the other characters less powerful attacks. As soon as you discover a Combination Attack, write it down! You can even put it into a macro later. There are a total of 15 Combination Attacks. Can you find them all? Injuries When two or more adversaries are hurling weapons and spells at each other, someone is bound to get hurt. Unfortunately, it isn't always an enemy. Some of your characters' injuries can be healed in battle if you use the appropriate Item, Skill or Technique. Unconscious: When the letters turn blue and a sleep icon appears, the character is out cold and can't fight until he or she regains consciousness. Poisoned: When all the letters in the character window turn yellow, the character has been poisoned. The character can still fight, but as the character moves, his or her HP drops steadily until the poison is cured. Paralyzed: When the letters turn blue and a lightning icon appears, the character has been paralyzed and can't fight. Near Death: A flatline icon appears when the character's HP reaches 0. This character is completely out of action unless a special remedy is used or the party spends the night at an Inn. In the case of an android, movement, HP and Technique Points are gradually replaced. Game Over The game ends when all your characters are Near Death. The Sega Logo appears. When you restart the game, your characters will appear where you last saved the game. Vehicles In the course of your adventure you will find vehicles that allow you to travel quickly across hostile terrain. To use a vehicle, access it through the Items menu the same way you would a regular Item. Use the D-Pad to move the vehicle around the screen. To leave a vehicle, simply enter a town or installation, or press Button A, B or C. However, even a fast-moving, armored vehicle won't keep you safe from attack. The vibrations from the ancient mechanics tend to irritate some of Motavia's bigger and nastier monsters. Fortunately, you have some heavy firepower to counter their attacks. When a battle begins, the vehicle's control panel appears. Use the D-Pad to select a command, and press Button A or C. Pressing Button B cancels the command. Combat Window: This window is similar to the Battle Commands discussed previously. ATTAC lets you fire a single attack at one enemy. OPTIN lets you select a special ray, missile, or bomb. RUN lets you retreat. Special Points: These are similar to Hit Points, and diminish whenever an enemy attacks successfully. If your Special Points drop to 0, the game ends. Special Points are completely restored after each battle. Weapons are restored when you spend the night at an Inn. Space Travel Later in the game, you will gain the means to travel to other planets. To access your spaceship, find and enter a spaceport. Select a destination, press Button A or C, then sit back and enjoy the ride. In the City Between bouts of exploring and combat you'll want to stop at the nearest town to rest and heal, replenish supplies, and catch up on the latest news. Talk to everyone you see--he or she may have information valuable to your quest. Shops: There are three kinds of shops: weapons shops, armor shops and tool shops. Most of these shops have signs out front--a sword for a weapon or armor shop and a bag for a tool store. In addition, you might find some bargains at the local market stalls. Making Purchases: Check out all the shops in all the towns you visit, as you might be able to upgrade your equipment. * Step right up to the person behind the counter and press Button A or C to talk. The salesperson asks you if you want to buy or sell. * Select BUY and press Button A or C to see a list of available goods. The price of each item is listed on the right. * Use the D-Pad to select an item, and the salesperson will give you information about that item. * In the case of weapons or armor, the EQUIP window to the left tells you which character can use that weapon or armor. Press Button A or C to make the purchase. * The salesperson will ask you to confirm your purchase. Select YES or NO and press Button A or C. * Cancel selections and close your sales transaction by repeatedly pressing Button B. Selling Extra Supplies: Weapons and items are in short supply on Motavia, and can be sold for a reduced price. * To sell an item or weapon, start a conversation with the person behind the counter, select SELL and press Button C. * The salesperson will ask you what you want to sell, and your item list appears. Use the D-Pad to highlight the object you want to sell, and press Button A or C to see the offered price. * Press Button A or C again to make the sale. You can cancel selections and close your transaction by repeatedly pressing Button B. Inns If you want to replenish your Technique Points, Skills and Hit Points, restock your vehicle, or simply want to relax, nothing beats a night at the Inn. Unless you have certain Items, Skills or Techniques on hand, this is the only way to revive a character who's Near Death. Prices vary, and overnight stays don't always come cheap, so watch your money reserve. To purchase your night at the Inn, follow the same procedure as for making purchases. Home Sweet Home Well, one thing beats spending the night at an Inn. Spend the night at Alys' home in Aiedo and you get all the benefits of a stay at an Inn...for free. The Hunter's Guild Located in Alys' hometown, the Hunter's Guild provides weapons and armor at reasonable rates, offers interesting entertainment, and has a bulletin board of jobs you can take for extra cash and experience. Phantasy Star IV Tools and Techniques Use Up/Down to scroll text Tools of the Trade Items, weapons and armor can be purchased at shops and stalls, or picked up from defeated enemies. Items: * Monomate, Dimate and Trimate restore character HP. The more powerful the restorative, the higher the price. * Antidote cures one poisoned character. * Anti-Paralyze cures one character of paralysis. * Telepipe transports the entire party to any town or village visited previously. * Escapipe transports the entire party out of a dangerous situation--such as a maze or dungeon--to a relatively safe place. Weapons: Weapons are made from various materials and technologies. Try each kind out to see which suits a character best. * Dagger is a small, short knife carried by almost everyone on Motavia. Good for very close fighting. * Knife is a larger, more capable weapon favored by Hunters. It leaves one hand free for a protective shield. * Boomerang functions best at a distance. If thrown properly, the boomerang can inflict damage on several enemies at a time. * Slicer features long, sharp blades that make it deadlier than the boomerang. The blades can be folded for easy carrying. * Claw is as effective as a sword, but only at very close range. Only a skilled wielder who is light and agile can use the claw. * Sword is a powerful weapon, but its length requires the use of both hands and some degree of skill to be used effectively. * Axe is also very powerful and effective. However, wielding an axe takes powerful muscles and the use of both hands. Armor: * Leather Cloth is made from sandworm hide. It is one of the most common and versatile resources on Motavia. Leather items are light and offer freedom of movement, though not much protection. * Armor and Mail exist in various forms: ceramics, steel, titanium and others. Try them on your characters to see which is best. * Shields are made from materials that range from hardened leather to ceramics, steel and titanium. Strength and weight vary. * Helmets offer head protection, and are worn by men. * Crowns are the equivalent head protection worn by women. * Circlets offer little protection, but increase mental powers. Techniques Following are some of the Techniques your characters will learn. Some are reserved for battle only, while others can be used in Camp. All Techniques take up a character's TP, and the more powerful the Technique, the more TP is used. A Technique might not work in battle against a certain type of enemy or defense, but the TP is used up anyway. Battle Techniques: These affect one enemy on the screen: * FOI, GIFOI and NAFOI blast the enemy with a bolt of flame. * WAT, GIWAT and NAWAT freeze the enemy by dropping the temperature of the surrounding area. * VOL kills the enemy by destroying its nervous system. * TSU, GITHU and NATHU fire an arrow of light at the enemy. These affect all the enemies on the screen: * ZAN, GIZAN and NAZAN suffocate enemies by turning the surrounding area into a vacuum. * GRA, GIGRA and NAGRA crush enemies with a powerful gravity well. * MEGID disintegrates the molecular structure of all the enemies on the screen. * BOLT kills enemies by destroying their nervous systems. * GELUN causes enemies to age quickly and reduces attack strength. * DORAN slows down enemy reaction speed. * BROSE suddenly expands enemy body mass to twice the normal size, resulting in damage. * RIMIT interferes with enemy nervous systems, resulting in unconsciousness. Boost Techniques: Use these Techniques to boost the abilities of your characters while they are in battle. These Techniques do not boost character HP. * SHIFT increases the physical attack strength of one active character. * SANER increases reaction speed of all active characters. * DEBAN creates a shield before all active characters, increasing their defensive strength. Healing/Restorative Techniques: * SAR restores some HP to all active humanoid characters. * RES, GIRES and NARES restore some HP to one active humanoid character. * ANTI cures one active character of poisoning, but does not raise HP. * RIMPA cures one active character of paralysis, but does not raise HP. * AROWS revives one active character who has been knocked unconscious, but does not raise HP. * REVER revives one flatlined character and restores 1/4 of total HP. * REGEN cures poisoning, unconsciousness or paralysis, or restores all HP to one flatlined character. Travelling Techniques: * RYUKA teleports all characters to any city previously visited. * HINAS teleports all characters out of dangerous areas such as dungeons or labyrinths. Skills Each character has an allotted number of special Skills he or she can use. Skills can be replenished by spending the night at an Inn. These affect one enemy on the screen: * CROSSCUT is a fast, powerful sword slash that does double damage. * RAY BLADE emits a blast of light that causes damage. * EXPLODE causes a burst of light from the attacker's body to pulverize the opponent. * EARTH knocks the enemy unconscious using energy drawn up from the ground. * FLAELI assaults the enemy with a rain of magical fire. * DIEM is a magic spell that causes an enemy's body to cease all function. * VORTEX surrounds the enemy with a whirlwind of slashing blades. * DEATH kills the enemy with an unimpaired blade cut to the vitals. * ASTRAL blasts the enemy with power collected from the astral realm. * ELIMINATE allows unimpaired access to an enemy's vital organs; results in death. These affect all the enemies on the screen: * AIRSLASH suffocates enemies inside a pocket of vacuum. * HEWN hurls a cyclone of magical energy at enemies. * TANDLE blasts enemies with lightning. * EFESS calls on creatures from inner planes to attack. * LEGEON generates a great burst of energy that damages all enemies within range. * NEGATIS strangles enemies inside a pocket of vacuum. * MOONSHADE reflects light that mesmerizes and damages enemies. This Skill affects all active characters: * VISION gives characters the ability to predict and compensate for enemy moves; increases Dexterity. Phantasy Star IV Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Happy Hunting * Not all of the buildings of a town or village are located within the village walls. You can travel around and explore the outskirts of a village by staying close to the outside of the wall. * Your characters aren't the only ones who can command a Combination Attack--some of your enemies can join and fire deadly combinations at you as well. * If you come across an enemy you know can join together and attack, try to eliminate the weaker link as soon as possible. * Go to the stores and buildings to pick up weaponry. It's a good idea to buy some medical supplies. * Before you set out on your quest, check out what's hiding in the basement of the Motavian Academy.

She had a silky coat, a beautiful, curly mane, a long, flowing tail and the daintiest hooves you ever saw. So it was strange that Crystal was also the shyest pony in the land! When the other ponies galloped across the meadow, Crystal always ran at the tail end of the herd. When they played hide and seek in the forest or splashed in the cool waters of the fountain, Crystal would hang back. She was always almost-but not quite-ready to join the fun. That's how Crystal managed to escape the terrible fate that befell her friends! The evil Storm Witch wanted to rule Ponyland. She became furious whenever the ponies frolicked in the pastures, ate hay in the fields, or drank water from the stream. She wanted to keep everything for herself and her own wicked pets. She was awful! One day, while the Storm Witch was spying on the ponies with her crystal ball, she just couldn't take it any more. She flew into a rage and cast a powerful bolt of lightning that blasted all the ponies at once. Under her evil spell, they were frozen in place! They became as thin as paper and their colors turned dull and drab. They couldn't move, or even whinny for help. Then they were carried off and imprisoned in secret places all over Ponyland! Only Crystal escaped, because the Storm Witch's lightning bolt missed her. But now that she was alone, Crystal knew she couldn't be timid any longer. Her friends needed her! Help Crystal search arcross Ponyland. Gallop with her through flowery fields, dark forests and spooky caves.

One day, the patient earth rose up in violent anger, sending your civilization crashing to the ground. Not to be outdone, the sea turned against you, too. Towering waves washed over the land, burying your subjects in a watery grave of foam and brine. You suddenly found yourself in an embarrassing situation-you were now a king without a country. Fortunately you escaped in a frail boat, accompanied by a small group of loyal followers. These were sturdy men-men who would follow you to the ends of the earth, who believe in your divine right and would fight for your cause no matter what the odds. You've just landed on the unfamiliar shores of a foreign land. The land is rich and fertile, as you dreamed it would be-but like all bountiful places, it's populated. Petty warlords reign over the settlements and send their armies sweeping across the countryside. You could submit to these backward nobles, but that role, you realize, hardly befits one of your royal lineage. You were a king not so long ago, and you have borne enough indignity already-it is they who will serve you.

Return to the active window (press C) Power Monger Game Windows Use Up/Down to scroll text CAPTAINS WINDOWS The Captains Window shows you standing with any captains loyal to you. If you lose a Captain, his subordinate Captains won't be able to receive commands. For example, if you have three Captains and your second Captain dies, your third won't be able to receive orders. When he completes his last orders, he will camp for the remainder of the game (unless he is attacked). The Captains If you conquer a settlement with another Captain in it, he immediately switches sides and swears his loyalty to you. The new Captain appears at the side of the first Captain, and you can command him, too. The first Captain is the lifeblood of your Conquest-if he dies, the game ends. If any other Captain dies in your service, the game doesn't end. NOTE: Orders are delivered down the chain of command, from the main Captain to his subordinates. If you lose a superior Captain (other than your main Captain), his subordinates won't be able to receive commands. For example, if you have three Captains and your second Captain dies, your third Captain will no longer be able to receive orders because the chain of command has been broken. Captains broken off from the chain of command will carry out the last order, then camp for the remainder of the time (unless attacked by an enemy army). Job Symbols The job symbol above each Captain's head indicates what command he's currently trying to carry out. If he's finished a task, a small campfire symbol appears, indicating that he and his followers are resting while waiting for further orders. Additional Captains communicate with your first Captain using carrier pigeons. Since carrier pigeons have to fly between Captains, you'll notice a short "delay" between giving an order and the subordinate Captain's acknowledgment of it. A little white pigeon fluttering beside the Status Bar of the Subordinate Captain means an order is still "on the way." NOTE: You can attack enemy carrier pigeons if your men are armed with bows. This will hinder communication between enemy Captains. Selecting a captain to receive orders The bobbing arrow indicates which Captain you're currently giving orders to-any commands you make will be carried out by that Captain only. If you want to give orders to one of your other Captains, you have to move the arrow. To select another Captain to receive orders: 1. If the Captains Window isn't highlighted, press B until it is. 2. Use D-Pad to point at the medallion hanging from the Captain's neck. Press A. The arrow moves to the new Captain-now he's the recipient of your commands. Getting info on a captain The medals on each Captain's chest can be used to get information on that Captain: name, current job, loyalty, speed, food items carried, troops in squad, surplus items, and equipment items carried. To get info on a captain: 1. If the Captains Window isn't highlighted, press B until it is. 2. Use D-Pad to point at the Captain's medals. Press A. The info appears in the Text Window.

Attack 20. Options ISSUING COMMANDS Issuing commands is generally a three step process. First you select which Captain will be carrying out your command(if you have more than one Captain, that is). Next, you select the command itself. Finally, you select what the object of his command is-a settlement, a tree, a person, an animal, a weapon, or simply a location on the map. The following procedure explains how to issue a majority of the commands. A few of the commands-Drop Food, Derank, Go home, Drop Invention, Transfer Men-don't follow this standard procedure. For details on issuing these special commands, see the command descriptions below. To issue a command: 1. If the Captain's window isn't highlighted, press B until it is. 2. If you have more than one Captain, choose the one you want to carry out the order. Use the D-Pad to point at the medallion hanging from the Captain's neck, and then press A. The bobbing arrow moves to the new Captain to indicate that he is active. 3. Bring the object of the command into view on the Close-Up Map. For example, If you're going to attack a settlement, bring the settlement into view. Use one of the following methods: Captains Window highlighted: Hold down A, and then D-Pad to scroll your view. View Control Window highlighted: Use D-Pad to scroll your view. Overview Window highlighted: Use D-Pad to move the pointer to the object's location, and then press A to "snap" your view to the location. 4. Press C to highlight the Command Bar. Use D-Pad to bracket the command you want to give, and then press A. NOTE: When you successfully select the command, it will turn dark blue. You'll also hear a "snapping" sound confirming your selection. For most commands, this sound will continue until you indicate the object of the command. For example, if you select the Attack command, you'll hear the snapping sound until you tell your Captain you want him to attack. 5. Once you've selected your command, you must specify the object of your command. The Captains Window or Overview Window is automatically highlighted to make this easier. Use the D-Pad to point at the object on the map, and then press A. Since it's difficult to accurately point at anything smaller than a settlement on the Overview Map, you're usually better off selecting objects from the Close-Up Map. If the Overview Window is currently highlighted, press B to highlight the Captain's Window, and then select from the Close-Up Map. NOTE: You can only select objects that are appropriate to the command you're giving. For example, an Invent command can only have a settlement with a workshop as its target. Any attempts to select an inappropriate object will fail, and you'll continue to hear the "snapping" sound. If you're not sure whether you're pointing at a "valid" object, glance at the Overview Map. You'll see a Direction Line that extends from the Captain to the location you're viewing. If the Direction line is black, you're not pointing at an appropriate object. If its red, the object is valid and you can select it. 6. Once you've successfully given the command, the Captain and his men will begin to carry it out. A Job Symbol will appear above the Captain's head to remind you which order the Captain is carrying out. "ON-LINE HELP" INFO To use the On-Line Help feature: 1. Press C until the Command Bar is highlighted. 2. Use the D-Pad to move the selection box to the option you want information on, and press B. The explanation of the command appears in the Text Window. POSTURES The Posture commands are settings that modify all other commands except Query and Game Control. They let you tell your followers how aggressively they should act when carrying out your orders. For example, if you Attack a settlement with Passive Posture highlighted, your followers will try to subdue the population and "convince" them to join your side through a strong show of arms. If you Attack with a Neutral Posture, your followers will resort to violence if necessary, and some of the population may die during your attack. Attack with an Aggressive Posture and your followers will try to wipe out as many people as possible. Postures & Quantity Commands Certain commands deal specifically with quantities of things, that is, the transfer of soldiers or goods: Men: Get Men, Derank, Transfer Men Food: Get Food, Drop Food, Supply Food Inventions: Equip Invention, Drop Invention When the Postures are applied to these commands, they specify the percentage of soldiers or goods being transferred: Passive Posture = 25% Neutral Posture = 50% Aggressive Posture = 100% So if you're in a Passive Posture and you instruct your followers to Drop Food, they'll drop 25% of the total food supply. Give the same command in an Aggressive Posture and they'll drop all of the food they are carrying. Unpredictable effects of passive & aggressive A Captain's actions are not always predictable when his posture is set on Passive or Aggressive. For example, if an Aggressive Captain is near a battle-even a battle that doesn't immediately concern him-he may join in the fray. If he's Passive, he may run away. Any of these actions can be avoided by changing the Captain's Posture. QUERY Query gives you information on various objects on the Close-Up Map. Unlike the other commands, the Query command remains selected even after you've queried an object. As long as the command is highlighted, you can continue to select objects. The command remains highlighted until you select it again or choose a different command. OBJECTS A query reveals different information depending on what you point at: Settlement-obedience, food items and people in entire settlement, loyalty, inventions People-name, settlement where they live, health, building they live in, how hard they work, profession, items they have equipped, captain they follow, age Trees-type of tree, forest it belongs to, whether there are birds in the branches, season Birds-whether it's a carrier pigeon or stork, who it's flying to ATTACK Attack orders a Captain and his followers to attack a target. How aggressively the followers act in the attack depends on the Captain's current Posture. You attack settlements, towers, and individuals in order to bring them under your control. When you successfully conquer a place, the people immediately switch obedience to you. That means that you gain access to all their resources-food, people, livestock, workshops, and boats. GET FOOD Get Food lets you take food from a settlement you've conquered or a food cache(see Drop Food). The percentage of food your followers gather depends on the Captain's current Posture. NOTE: Though sheep are a good source of nutrition, you must use the attack command to turn them into food. The Get Food command is only good for stored food-it has no effect on living, bleating livestock. MAKE ALLIANCE Alliance orders a Captain to make an alliance with a foreign settlement. To make an alliance, you need surplus stock to use as a tribute of your good intentions. If the alliance is rejected, you lose the tribute you offered. Once you make an alliance, you have access to the allied Captain's settlements and resources, and he and his comrades have access to yours. An alliance is only broken if you attack your ally or one of his settlements. DROP FOOD Select the Drop Food command and your Captain will immediately drop some or all of the food he's carrying, depending on his current Posture. He'll automatically drop it right where he's standing. If a Captain drops food in the wilderness, it turns into a food cache that can be picked up later by any of your Captains(use the Get Food command). Don't worry about enemies picking up one of your food caches-it's hidden, so they can't see it. If you drop it while standing in a settlement, it's added to the settlement's stock. SUPPLY FOOD Supply Food orders a Captain to collect food from friendly settlements and drop it off in the wilderness or in another friendly settlement. The amount of food the Captain takes from friendly settlements depends on his current Posture. This command is particularly useful if you have two or more Captains. For example, one Captain can invent in a settlement while the second Captain supplies the settlement with provisions. NOTE: If you want the Captain to supply food to a point in the wilderness, make sure you designate that point on the Overview Window. If you want him to supply to a settlement, you can use the Overview Window or the Close-Up Map. GET MEN Get Men orders a Captain to recruit soldiers from a conquered settlement. The percentage of the population the Captain recruits depends on his current Posture. NOTE: You can only Get Men from a settlement you've conquered-you cannot recruit individual people wandering around. DERANK Select the Derank command and your Captain will send home some or all of his followers, depending on his Posture. Once you've selected this command, recruits will automatically head for the settlement from which you recruited them. Your original followers will return to your tower. NOTE: Your followers take a straight path home when deranked. To avoid having them get stuck around water, be sure that there is a clear path(no lakes, rivers, or oceans) back to the home settlement. TRANSFER MEN Transfer Men orders one Captain to assign recruits to another Captain. The number of men transferred depends on the Posture of the Captain who's supplying the men. To transfer men: 1. If the Captains Window isn't highlighted, press B until it is. 2. Select the Captain you want to do the supplying. For information on selecting Captains, see Captains Window under Using Commands. 3. Press C to go to the Command Bar. 4. Use the D-Pad to bracket the Transfer Men command, and then press A. 5. Use the D-Pad to point at the Captain you want to receive the men(not the Captain on Close-Up Map, but the one standing behind the Close-Up Map with the other Captains). Press A. GO HOME Go Home sends a Captain and all of his followers back to their homes-this is handy for making a quick retreat. Once you've selected this command, recruits will automatically head for the settlement from which you recruited them. Your original followers will return to your tower. INVENT Invent orders a Captain and his followers to use a workshop and any of its inhabitants to create useful items. Only settlements with workshops are capable of producing inventions. Once your people have invented an item, it will appear outside the workshop. If you want to be absolutely certain whether they've invented anything, Query the workshop. Keep in mind that both your followers and the craftsmen in the workshop can't get food while they're inventing. If the local population runs out of food, the craftsmen will stop inventing and start producing food until they have a large enough supply. If your men run out of food, they'll go home. You can't specify what your men should invent, but you can influence their creativity by the location of the workshop you choose. For example, inventing near a forest on low land near water usually produces boats. Inventing in a settlement on high ground away from any forest usually produces swords or cannons. The inventions created by a workshop depend on several factors: Raw materials Raw materials include wood and steel. Forests are the obvious sources of wood. Wood can be used to make ploughs, bows, pikes, catapults, and if you're near water, boats. To find out whether there are forests near your workshop, you can Query any building in the settlement, use the Objects Mode in the Overview Window(see Overview Window), or simply scroll the Close-Up Map until you spot trees. Steel can be used to make swords. If the workshop is at a high enough elevation, your men may construct a mine from which they'll dig raw ore to forge into steel. You'll see them construct a tower, below which is the actual mine. NOTE: Not every tower is a mine. Use the Query command to tell an ordinary tower from a mine. If you aren't near any useful raw materials, your workshop will produce pots from the local mud. Pots are only valuable for trade. Posture A Passive Posture produces items like pots and ploughs, while an Aggressive Posture produces heavy weapons like bows, swords, cannons and catapults. Occupations in settlement Intricate weapons such as cannons and catapults require specialized parts that the local population can't manufacture. In order to build a cannon or catapult, a merchant must be present in the settlement to provide needed parts from foreign places. If you want to build a boat, a fisherman must be present. Summary of factors influencing inventing: Pots-can be made any time Ploughs-passive posture, wood Boats-passive posture, wood, fisherman present Pikes-neutral posture, wood Sword-passive or neutral posture, steel Bows-aggressive posture, wood Cannon-aggressive posture, steel, merchant in settlement Catapult-aggressive posture, wood, merchant in settlement EQUIP INVENTION Invented objects must be 'equipped' before your soldiers can use them. You can equip inventions stored in a building or near a workshop, weapons left on the battlefield, or boats found in the water. You can't see inventions stored in a building-only a Query will tell you if a building contains inventions-but you can see items dropped on the ground. Hand-weapons-bows, pikes and swords-are automatically distributed to troops. The Captain is equipped first, his original followers are equipped second, and any other recruits last. If troops have more than one kind of weapon to choose from, they will choose bows first, then swords, and then pikes. Other weapons, such as cannon and catapults, are carried as stock by the Captain for use in trade and making alliances. The more stock a Captain has, the slower he will travel, so be careful not to overload him. The only excess items that won't weigh him down are pots. To find out how much the Captain is carrying, use his medals(see "Captain's Info" under Captains Window in Using the Windows). DROP INVENTION Drop invention orders a Captain to drop any surplus items he's carrying. The Captain will drop the items right where he's standing-the amount he drops depends on his current Posture. A Captain can't drop equipped weapons or boats. In the wilderness, dropped inventions are left on the ground-they can be picked up later by any of your Captains(use the Equip Invention command). Don't worry about enemies picking up one of your weapons-it's hidden, so they can't see it. If you drop them in a settlement, they're added to the settlement's stock. SEND CAPTAIN Send Captain orders a Captain to move to the location you choose. In peacetime, this command is useful for getting a Captain to move his unit to a strategically superior position. During combat, you can use the command to move him too far, his followers will continue fighting while he maintains a safe distance. If you move him far away, his men will break off the fight in order to follow him. NOTE: If you want to send the captain to a point in the wilderness, make sure you select from the Overview Window. To use SEND CAPTAIN on the Close-Up Map, you must select some type of landmark like a settlement, tree, sheep, dead fire, etc. SPY Spy orders a Captain to enter an enemy settlement and gather intelligence on its population and, if possible, its armies' movements. Spying is a dangerous activity. If the Captain is caught spying, he'll be executed on the spot. But if he's good enough, he'll be accepted into the community. At this point, the location of every person belonging to that settlement will show up on the Overview map as dots of the appropriate color-red or blue for enemies, or yellow for neutral. If he gets into an enemy unit, the dots on the Overview Map will indicate the location of the soldiers in that unit. TRADE Trade orders a Captain to trade surplus inventions(pots and weapons) with a settlement in return for food or other inventions. Every item in the game has a set food value. How much you get for your surplus stock-or how much food you pay for new inventions-depends on how good your Captain is at bartering. Some Captains are better at it than others. The Captain's Posture determines what he will trade for and which items he will want first. A Captain with an Aggressive Posture will want a big, heavy weapon like a cannon or catapult. With a Neutral Posture he'll prefer things like a boat, but if he's in a Passive Posture he'll be satisfied with a plough. Power Monger Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text SPEEDING UP THE GAME Sometimes life is slow. Because Power Monger is time-accurate and played in real-time, the game may take longer than you'd like. To speed up the game(fighting, marching, inventing, etc.), zoom all the way in on the Close-Up Map. You won't be able to see as much of the action, but play will be much quicker. 1. The object of the game is to gain control of the settlements and armies in a territory through diplomacy or conquest. When a significant portion of the population of a territory is under your control, and all the gold in the Conquest Balance is on your side, the territory is yours. 2. What you should do first is to become familiar with the command symbols, how they function in the game, and how the maps work. Pay particular attention to the commands that move your forces around the maps, as well as the commands that manage your resources. You should probably play several practice games to familiarize yourself with the commands and the maps. 3. To best prepare yourself for a battle: Make sure the size of your army matches or exceeds the number of people in the town you intend to capture. If you have a subordinate Captain who has an army, send him into battle before your main army. This will reduce the number of casualties your main army will suffer, divide the enemy forces, and give yourself a chance to gauge the enemy's aggression level. Do not go in and decimate an entire settlement even if you know they will be an easy victory. You will usually want to leave at least part of the population behind to produce food, inventions, and conscripts for you. Make sure you have a sufficient amount of food and your Captain is in fit condition. When your Food Status bar is shorter than your Men's Status bar, go forage for some more food. Hungry soldiers do not fight well. Equip your First Captain and his army with the best weapons available. This will greatly enhance your chances of winning battles. Taking over the closest settlement is not always the best thing to do. Survey the other settlements and choose one that will benefit you and your army. Some settlements have better strategic positions than others, and some are richer in resources, i.e. food, population, and weapons. 4. To check if an invention is in your position, check the inventory of the settlement, shop, etc. where the invention was located; then check the Captain who tried to equip the invention(click his medals), or the individual soldiers in the Captain's army. If the invention still appears in the inventory of that location, and does not appear in the Captain's or any of the soldiers' inventories, you have not successfully equipped the invention. Change your posture level and try again. 5. You can continue to adventure in any territory after you have conquered it as long as your First Captain is not killed. In fact, doing so is a good way to try our different strategies before moving on to a more difficult territory. 6. If you see an enemy hiding or walking around in your settlements, including enemy carrier pigeons, you have a spy or traitor in your midst. He or she is probably communicating vital economic and military information to your enemy. Don't take kindly to these people; simple execution is too good for them. 7. The best way for your Captain to distribute weapons to his new recruits is in a settlement. Make camp in a settlement and choose the Drop Invention icon and make sure you have an appropriate posture level set. Now these items are part of the settlement's stock. Choose the Equip Invention icon and again, make sure you have the appropriate posture set. The Captain will now redistribute all the stock he picks up to the soldiers that need them and keep what is in excess for trading purposes. This procedure can also be carried out outside a settlement, but not as quickly. 8. Unfortunately, not all of your soldiers are as smart as you or your original followers. If you do not want to get caught in a battle short-handed, make sure you carefully plan your moves through the terrain. In this game, a straight line is not always the best path to victory, especially if you are the only one equipped with a boat. 9. To speed up your army from one place to another, click on the Captain's medals and check the Speed. If you are loaded up with a huge weapons cache or trading items, choose the Drop Invention icon, and check the speed again. It should increase. Speeds of above 30 are generally okay for most territories. You can also speed up gameplay by zooming all the way in on your Close-Up Map and playing in the "zoomed-in" mode. 10. Don't forget that you can take any weapon with you on a boat. 11. The only way you can send multiple armies into battle is if you have one or more Subordinate Captains. The soldiers with hand weapons will engage the enemy face to face, while the soldiers with projectile weapons will fight from afar. 12. The Pros of forming an alliance will give your army some stability in the form of being able to trade for better weapons, as well as having an ample supply of food. In some territories, having a safe place to retreat to and gather your wits about yourself and your army will determine your outcome in hostile territory. The Cons are: if the tribe you have formed an alliance with takes over, or already controls a large part of the territory, you will eventually have to break the alliance and take the tribe on in battle. If he has been busy conquering the land and gathering his resources, you will have a tough fight ahead of you. 13. When a Captain doesn't have enough food, his men will desert him. Watch the food items and do not allow the amount to drop below approximately 20. Also, the men may desert if they are injured and their individual health drops to very sickly. You can improve the health of your army by remaining camped for a little while until their health improves. 14. You cannot have your Captain get food from a settlement that you have already conquered because the settlement has either been taken back by an enemy captain or the men have become rebellious from lack of food and having you kill all their people. In either case you will need to conquer that settlement again. 15. Your army can wade through thin channels of water. Issue a Send Captain or attack command to a destination on the island and the men will try to walk through the water. If they still do not make it, you can try to change the angle of the area that they are trying to march through. To do this, have the captain move to a closer position on your side and/or select a different destination for an order. For example, your men may not wade across the water if you choose to attack the army just on the other side of the water, but choosing to attack a sheep or a tree to the side of that army allows them to cross the channel. If the channel is still too wide to cross on foot, you will need boats, at least for your captain. Boats can be equipped from conquered settlements or armies or invented in towns near woods and with fishermen. If you only have one boat, you may wish to derank your men and have your captain cross to a safe area and equip some more boats. 16. There is sometimes a long delay when issuing orders to your subordinate captains because all orders are delivered via the primary captain by carrier pigeon, although this is automatic and you may not notice it. The delay is the time it takes for the orders to come down the ranks. A little white pigeon fluttering beside the Status Bars of the subordinate captain means an order is still "on the way." 17. If your second Captain dies, your third Captain(and all other subordinate Captains) can't receive orders because they are cut off from the chain of command. 18. You can have an army of 20 soldiers and it takes them forever to defeat a small settlement with only 2 people left in it because certain angles of fighting may be more effective, especially if your captain is using a bow, cannon, or catapult. Try sending the captain to a position on the other side of the settlement and attacking from that side. Also, switching Aggressive to Neutral Posture or vice-versa may speed up the outcome. 19. You cannot get your men to invent something specific even when you change your Posture level because the workshop will continue to produce the same invention as it has in its inventory. You will need to equip all of the old items before changing the posture level. To speed up the inventing process, make sure that the settlement has enough food for its population so that the town will spend all of its time on inventing, instead of on gathering food and inventing. If the settlement begins to dig a mine, the settlement will only produce steel goods. Keep in mind that it will take longer to dig the mine and then invent than it would to invent wood items near a forest. The mine can be queried to see whether the settlement is inventing cannons or swords. 20. Use Query to learn about each settlement. For instance, a settlement might be ready to overthrow their warlord. Take a passive posture with them and your men will be able to win without warfare. Conquest Password: Select the "Restore Conquest" Option and enter the following: 2MNOA2WSD. Now select the "Continue Conquest" option and you'll find every one of the 195 territories on the map can be selected. NOTE: This game requires lots of exploration and it will take you some time to become familiar and effective with every option this game has to offer. These instructions will give you the basic foundations in your quest to rule the world. Manage your army, your settlements, and your resources as well as you can. Your leadership and management skills will determine if you truly have the right stuff to be a POWER MONGER.

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS OPTIONS MENU PLAYING THE GAME DINO PROFILES BROWSE HELP FILES Primal Showdown Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text Primal Rage: The Story Eons ago, before humans walked the planet, there was rage. Life on Earth was complex, as were the instincts of the planet's life-forms. In order to grow and multiply, there was a delicate balance between the desperate need to protect one's own life and the need to feed off the life energy of the others. As these instincts evolved, so did the gods. The gods embodied the spirits of Hunger and Survival, Life and Death, Insanity and Decay, and especially, Good and Evil. They took the form that most suited their needs and fought countless battles on the primordial frontiers of the Earth. Life on Earth slowly multiplied, and the gods became more powerful and their battles more intense. When life had spread to all corners of the Earth, the skies shook and the Earth trembled with the fevered pitch of the god's battles. Dinosaurs were the dominant animals on land, and great forests covered almost all available space. New life forms evolved at a rapid rate, and civilizations emerged. Then the delicate balance was disrupted. Balsafas, a great wizard from a parallel dimension, recognized the threat Earth would soon pose to the rest of the galaxy. To stop the threat, he planned to destroy the balance between the gods. Lacking the power to kill a god outright, he instead banished one to an isolated rock tomb in the center of the moon. This caused an immediate disturbance in the balance of power, followed by a huge explosion that blanketed the Earth with a huge cloud of volcanic dust. Most of the life on the planet died, and the surviving gods were sent into suspended animation. Now, millions of years later, a meteor collides with Earth, and its destructive fury rearranges the continents and destroys the cities. Humans survive, but technology is wiped out. The fury of the Cataclysms is enough to awaken the imprisoned gods. The gods emerge to find the Earth they knew is gone. It is now the new Urth. The gods are awake, and they are angry.

Start/Options Menu At the main title screen, press the Start Button to go to the Start/Options Screen. Press the D-Pad Up or Down, then press any button to select one of these two options: Start When you select this option, you'll go directly to the Dino Select Screen. One or Two players can then select one of the available dinosaurs to fight for Urth domination. In 1 Player mode, you'll face each of the other dinosaurs in their home territory. With 2 Player mode, you'll both battle for Urth domination until one player conquers all lands. Options Select this option to go to the Options Screen, and make various changes to your gameplay. At the Options Screen, press the D-Pad Up or Down to move the flashing arrows next to the option you want to change. Press Left or Right to cycle through the choices. Here are the options: * Game Type--Select from one of two game play options: Normal Game: This option is the game's default setting. Players select dinosaurs and conquer lands for Urth domination. 1 Player training: Select this option if you want to practice various bone-crushing moves and dinosaur fighting tactics. Press the D-Pad Down to move the selection arrows next to CPU Opponent, then press the D-Pad Left or Right to choose the dino you want to fight. Select Done, and you will go to the Dino Select Screen. * Difficulty: You can set the game's difficulty level from 1 (easiest) to 16 (hardest). Default is 7. As you improve your fighting skills, you can set the difficulty level to a higher setting. Of course, the King of Fighters can't hope to do such a thing. * Number of Credits: This option allows you to set the game to allow from 1 to 20 game credits (continues). As you get better at Primal Rage, you can set this option to a lower setting, and create an even greater challenge. * Number of Rounds: You can set the number of rounds you'll fight your opponent before the winner is determined. Select 5 for a best three out of five, 3 for a best two out of three, or 1 for a one time winner-take-all rage. If both players have an equal number of wins and tie in the final round, the game will go into Sudden Death. If there is a tie in sudden death, both players lose the battle. * Round Time: Each bout has a set time in which the winner must be determined. You can set the game's bout time to challenge your opponent to get a quick kill. The round time can be set from 30 to 80 seconds in 5 second increments. The default is 55 seconds. As you improve your fighting and accomplish quicker kills, set this option lower to put the pressure on you and your opponent. * Damage Modifiers: This option lets you adjust your Life Bar to any amount you want. The default is set to 100% It can be set anywhere between 50-150%. The strategy is to give a less experienced player more life to compete longer against an experienced player. Experienced players should set a lower Life Bar, and beginners should set their Life Bars high. Press the D-Pad Up or Down to select the percentage for the Left or Right Player, then press Left or Right to make changes to the strength of your player. As you make changes, the strength of your dino will be displayed below the percentages. * Gore Switch: Select GORE ON or GORE OFF (default is GORE ON). If GORE OFF is selected, there is no blood, eating people or fatalities. This includes the refuel round that occurs before the Final Battle in the 1 Player Game. Instead of refueling, you will receive an additional 50% power to your Life Blood Bar. * 3 Button Pad Configuration: Press the D-Pad Left or Right to cycle through the various choices and make adjustments to your button configuration. The new configuration will be displayed. When you find the setting you like, select Done to return to the Options Menu. * 6 Button Pad Configuration: Press the D-Pad Left or Right to cycle through the various choices and make adjustments to your button configuration. The six button controller can be configured so that you can make the Z or C Button activate one of three special moves (see your chosen Dino's profile for the special moves). The new configuration will be displayed. When you find the setting you like, select Done to return to the Options Menu. * Reset High Score Table: Choose either Abort! or Do It! (default is Abort!).

Choose either Abort! or Do It! (default is Abort!). If you select Do It!, the game will restore to the Factory Default. Select Abort! if you change your mind and want to leave the settings as they are. * Done: When you've finished making changes, select this option to return to the Start/Options Screen. Primal Showdown Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text NOTE: FOR THE PRIMAL SHOWDOWN, YOU WILL ONLY BE ABLE TO PLAY AS BLIZZARD OR SAURON. Dino Select After you've selected your game type and set your options the way you want, you'll need to select your character. Press the D-Pad Left or Right to highlight the dino you want, then press the Start Button to select. A Dino match up screen will appear for a moment, then you'll begin the Rage. RAGE! Now that the preliminaries are over, get ready to Rage! The main Rage screen displays each dino's name, a red Life Blood Bar, a yellow Brain Stem Bar and a Timer. Various other functions appear on-screen during each rage. Read the following to familiarize yourself with Primal Rage: * Life Blood Bar: The red Life Blood Bar is displayed above your dino's name in the upper right or left side of the screen. It diminishes as you take on damage, and the match ends when one dino's bar has been depleted. * Brain Stem Bar: This yellow bar is located directly above the name and indicates your dino's brain strength. When the yellow bar is depleted, your dino will appear dazed and vulnerable, but not beaten. You can snap out of the daze by moving the D-Pad quickly Left and Right, or when your opponent nails you with one of the various moves. * The Timer: There are various time settings you can set your rage to (see the Options section). Each bout is timed. When the timer winds down to 10 seconds, the remaining seconds will begin to beep. This is your warning that the match is about to end. If time runs out before a dino is beaten, the earth will lift both combatants into the air. The dino with the most life remaining will win the rage. * Win Icon: Each time you win a bout, an icon will appear on the winner's side under the timer. Depending on how you have set Rounds, the winner of the bout will have to accumulate 1, 2 or 3 icons. * Hit Combos: During each rage, dinos can inflict heavier damage to their opponent with multiple hit combos. The more hit combination moves you connect on, the heavier the damage you'll inflict. When you put a nice hit combo together, it will appear on your side of the screen (Left side for Player 1, Right side for Player 2). Domination of the Urth Each time you win a rage in Normal Game mode, the Urth Screen appears and tells you what portion of the world you have conquered. Continue to win your rage bouts until you have conquered all lands. Once you have conquered the Urth, your chosen dino will take on all other dinos one-at-a-time in The Final Battle Ground (difficulty 7 or higher only). There is no timer, and your Life Blood Bar is not reset, so you'll have to dispose of your enemy as quickly as you can. If you have the game set to allow continues, you may choose to continue the game if your dino is beaten. Refueling In the 1 Player mode, with a difficulty level of 7 or higher and Gore set ON, you will need to refuel your dino for the final battle. This process takes place only after you've defeated all other dinosaurs. To refuel, you will have to eat as many worshippers as possible in 20 seconds.

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS OPTIONS MENU PLAYING THE GAME DINO PROFILES BROWSE HELP FILES Primal Rage Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text Primal Rage: The Story Eons ago, before humans walked the planet, there was rage. Life on Earth was complex, as were the instincts of the planet's life-forms. In order to grow and multiply, there was a delicate balance between the desperate need to protect one's own life and the need to feed off the life energy of the others. As these instincts evolved, so did the gods. The gods embodied the spirits of Hunger and Survival, Life and Death, Insanity and Decay, and especially, Good and Evil. They took the form that most suited their needs and fought countless battles on the primordial frontiers of the Earth. Life on Earth slowly multiplied, and the gods became more powerful and their battles more intense. When life had spread to all corners of the Earth, the skies shook and the Earth trembled with the fevered pitch of the god's battles. Dinosaurs were the dominant animals on land, and great forests covered almost all available space. New life forms evolved at a rapid rate, and civilizations emerged. Then the delicate balance was disrupted. Balsafas, a great wizard from a parallel dimension, recognized the threat Earth would soon pose to the rest of the galaxy. To stop the threat, he planned to destroy the balance between the gods. Lacking the power to kill a god outright, he instead banished one to an isolated rock tomb in the center of the moon. This caused an immediate disturbance in the balance of power, followed by a huge explosion that blanketed the Earth with a huge cloud of volcanic dust. Most of the life on the planet died, and the surviving gods were sent into suspended animation. Now, millions of years later, a meteor collides with Earth, and its destructive fury rearranges the continents and destroys the cities. Humans survive, but technology is wiped out. The fury of the Cataclysms is enough to awaken the imprisoned gods. The gods emerge to find the Earth they knew is gone. It is now the new Urth. The gods are awake, and they are angry.

Various other functions appear on-screen during each rage. Read the following to familiarize yourself with Primal Rage: * Life Blood Bar: The red Life Blood Bar is displayed above your dino's name in the upper right or left side of the screen.

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS OPTIONS MENU PLAYING THE GAME DINO PROFILES BROWSE HELP FILES Primal Rage Test Drive Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text Primal Rage: The Story Eons ago, before humans walked the planet, there was rage. Life on Earth was complex, as were the instincts of the planet's life-forms. In order to grow and multiply, there was a delicate balance between the desperate need to protect one's own life and the need to feed off the life energy of the others. As these instincts evolved, so did the gods. The gods embodied the spirits of Hunger and Survival, Life and Death, Insanity and Decay, and especially, Good and Evil. They took the form that most suited their needs and fought countless battles on the primordial frontiers of the Earth. Life on Earth slowly multiplied, and the gods became more powerful and their battles more intense. When life had spread to all corners of the Earth, the skies shook and the Earth trembled with the fevered pitch of the god's battles. Dinosaurs were the dominant animals on land, and great forests covered almost all available space. New life forms evolved at a rapid rate, and civilizations emerged. Then the delicate balance was disrupted. Balsafas, a great wizard from a parallel dimension, recognized the threat Earth would soon pose to the rest of the galaxy. To stop the threat, he planned to destroy the balance between the gods. Lacking the power to kill a god outright, he instead banished one to an isolated rock tomb in the center of the moon. This caused an immediate disturbance in the balance of power, followed by a huge explosion that blanketed the Earth with a huge cloud of volcanic dust. Most of the life on the planet died, and the surviving gods were sent into suspended animation. Now, millions of years later, a meteor collides with Earth, and its destructive fury rearranges the continents and destroys the cities. Humans survive, but technology is wiped out. The fury of the Cataclysms is enough to awaken the imprisoned gods. The gods emerge to find the Earth they knew is gone. It is now the new Urth. The gods are awake, and they are angry. Get ready for Rage! Primal Rage Test Drive Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text SPECIAL NOTE: For the TEST DRIVE version of Primal Rage, you will only be able to use the characters Blizzard, Armadon, and Sauron. Throughout this help file, Dino fighting moves and special moves are referred to in combinations of button pushes and multiple D-Pad directions. Use this section to refine your button pushes and D-Pad presses. The number in parentheses next to the move denotes which button number the move is assigned to. This will be helpful when you are learning the individual character moves in a later section. 3-Button Controller: Start Button: Upper Quick. (1) A Button: Upper Fierce. (2) B Button: Lower Quick. (3) C Button: Lower Fierce. (4) 6-Button Controller: X Button: Upper Quick. (1) Y Button: Upper Fierce. (2) A Button: Lower Quick. (3) B Button: Lower Fierce. (4) Z Button: Nothing. C Button: Nothing. (See 6 Button Pad Configuration later in the options section for Z and C Button Configurations.) Start: Pause. Useful Abbreviations: * D=D-Pad Down. * U=D-Pad Up. * T=D-Pad Toward your opponent. * A=D-Pad Away from your opponent. For example: Hold Buttons X+Y and D-Pad T/A=Hold Buttons X+Y simultaneously and Press D-Pad Toward and then Away from opponent. NOTE: Both T(toward) and A(away) D-Pad movement are actually Left and Right directions, depending on which your opponent is located. Power Moves: Quick is a quick attack. Fierce is a slower, more damaging attack. For a power move, press Quick and Fierce simultaneously to attempt a more powerful attack. Primal Rage Test Drive Options Menu Use Up/Down to scroll text SPECIAL NOTE: For the TEST DRIVE version of Primal Rage, you will only be able to use the characters Blizzard, Armadon, and Sauron. Start/Options Menu At the main title screen, press the Start Button to go to the Start/Options Screen. Press the D-Pad Up or Down, then press any button to select one of these two options: Start When you select this option, you'll go directly to the Dino Select Screen. One or Two players can then select one of the available dinosaurs to fight for Urth domination. In 1 Player mode, you'll face each of the other dinosaurs in their home territory. With 2 Player mode, you'll both battle for Urth domination until one player conquers all lands. Options Select this option to go to the Options Screen, and make various changes to your gameplay. At the Options Screen, press the D-Pad Up or Down to move the flashing arrows next to the option you want to change. Press Left or Right to cycle through the choices. Here are the options: * Game Type--Select from one of two game play options: Normal Game: This option is the game's default setting. Players select dinosaurs and conquer lands for Urth domination. 1 Player training: Select this option if you want to practice various bone-crushing moves and dinosaur fighting tactics. Press the D-Pad Down to move the selection arrows next to CPU Opponent, then press the D-Pad Left or Right to choose the dino you want to fight. Select Done, and you will go to the Dino Select Screen. * Difficulty: You can set the game's difficulty level from 1 (easiest) to 16 (hardest). Default is 7. As you improve your fighting skills, you can set the difficulty level to a higher setting. Of course, the King of Fighters can't hope to do such a thing. * Number of Credits: This option allows you to set the game to allow from 1 to 20 game credits (continues). As you get better at Primal Rage, you can set this option to a lower setting, and create an even greater challenge. * Number of Rounds: You can set the number of rounds you'll fight your opponent before the winner is determined. Select 5 for a best three out of five, 3 for a best two out of three, or 1 for a one time winner-take-all rage. If both players have an equal number of wins and tie in the final round, the game will go into Sudden Death. If there is a tie in sudden death, both players lose the battle. * Round Time: Each bout has a set time in which the winner must be determined. You can set the game's bout time to challenge your opponent to get a quick kill. The round time can be set from 30 to 80 seconds in 5 second increments. The default is 55 seconds. As you improve your fighting and accomplish quicker kills, set this option lower to put the pressure on you and your opponent. * Damage Modifiers: This option lets you adjust your Life Bar to any amount you want. The default is set to 100% It can be set anywhere between 50-150%. The strategy is to give a less experienced player more life to compete longer against an experienced player. Experienced players should set a lower Life Bar, and beginners should set their Life Bars high. Press the D-Pad Up or Down to select the percentage for the Left or Right Player, then press Left or Right to make changes to the strength of your player. As you make changes, the strength of your dino will be displayed below the percentages. * Gore Switch: Select GORE ON or GORE OFF (default is GORE ON). If GORE OFF is selected, there is no blood, eating people or fatalities. This includes the refuel round that occurs before the Final Battle in the 1 Player Game. Instead of refueling, you will receive an additional 50% power to your Life Blood Bar. * 3 Button Pad Configuration: Press the D-Pad Left or Right to cycle through the various choices and make adjustments to your button configuration. The new configuration will be displayed. When you find the setting you like, select Done to return to the Options Menu. * 6 Button Pad Configuration: Press the D-Pad Left or Right to cycle through the various choices and make adjustments to your button configuration. The six button controller can be configured so that you can make the Z or C Button activate one of three special moves (see your chosen Dino's profile for the special moves). The new configuration will be displayed. When you find the setting you like, select Done to return to the Options Menu. * Reset High Score Table: Choose either Abort! or Do It! (default is Abort!). If you select Do It!, the game will reset the High Score Table. Select Abort! if you change your mind and want to leave the scores as they are. * Restore Factory Default: Select this option anytime you want to return all options to their default settings. Choose either Abort! or Do It! (default is Abort!). If you select Do It!, the game will restore to the Factory Default. Select Abort! if you change your mind and want to leave the settings as they are. * Done: When you've finished making changes, select this option to return to the Start/Options Screen. Primal Rage Test Drive Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text SPECIAL NOTE: For the TEST DRIVE version of Primal Rage, you will only be able to use the characters Blizzard, Armadon, and Sauron. Dino Select After you've selected your game type and set your options the way you want, you'll need to select your character. Press the D-Pad Left or Right to highlight the dino you want, then press the Start Button to select. A Dino match up screen will appear for a moment, then you'll begin the Rage. RAGE! Now that the preliminaries are over, get ready to Rage! The main Rage screen displays each dino's name, a red Life Blood Bar, a yellow Brain Stem Bar and a Timer. Various other functions appear on-screen during each rage. Read the following to familiarize yourself with Primal Rage: * Life Blood Bar: The red Life Blood Bar is displayed above your dino's name in the upper right or left side of the screen. It diminishes as you take on damage, and the match ends when one dino's bar has been depleted. * Brain Stem Bar: This yellow bar is located directly above the name and indicates your dino's brain strength. When the yellow bar is depleted, your dino will appear dazed and vulnerable, but not beaten. You can snap out of the daze by moving the D-Pad quickly Left and Right, or when your opponent nails you with one of the various moves. * The Timer: There are various time settings you can set your rage to (see the Options section). Each bout is timed. When the timer winds down to 10 seconds, the remaining seconds will begin to beep. This is your warning that the match is about to end. If time runs out before a dino is beaten, the earth will lift both combatants into the air. The dino with the most life remaining will win the rage. * Win Icon: Each time you win a bout, an icon will appear on the winner's side under the timer. Depending on how you have set Rounds, the winner of the bout will have to accumulate 1, 2 or 3 icons. * Hit Combos: During each rage, dinos can inflict heavier damage to their opponent with multiple hit combos. The more hit combination moves you connect on, the heavier the damage you'll inflict. When you put a nice hit combo together, it will appear on your side of the screen (Left side for Player 1, Right side for Player 2). Domination of the Urth Each time you win a rage in Normal Game mode, the Urth Screen appears and tells you what portion of the world you have conquered. Continue to win your rage bouts until you have conquered all lands. Once you have conquered the Urth, your chosen dino will take on all other dinos one-at-a-time in The Final Battle Ground (difficulty 7 or higher only). There is no timer, and your Life Blood Bar is not reset, so you'll have to dispose of your enemy as quickly as you can. If you have the game set to allow continues, you may choose to continue the game if your dino is beaten. Refueling In the 1 Player mode, with a difficulty level of 7 or higher and Gore set ON, you will need to refuel your dino for the final battle. This process takes place only after you've defeated all other dinosaurs. To refuel, you will have to eat as many worshippers as possible in 20 seconds.

A small note on one of the ledger sheets mentions a Mob front here in the city. Shouldn't be that hard to find it and close it down. One small problem.

Race Drivin' Tengen To return to Now Playing, reset your adapter. GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Race Drivin' Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text Now Race Drivin', the smash arcade sensation, burns rubber on your Sega Genesis. Race Drivin' puts you behind the wheel in a true 3-D, gut-twisting, nerve-wracking experience of open-road and stunt track autosport competition. You choose the level of competition you're ready for, and the kind of track you want to race--or you can design your own custom course with Race Drivin's cool Track Construction Set! And naturally, you pick the set of wheels you want to take onto the track, from a smooth-shifting automatic sport vehicle to a responsive manual-speed maniac of a race car. Race Drivin' puts you on the asphalt and between the lines, with your life--not to mention your reputation--on the line. So... Gentlemen--and you macho ladies, rev your engine hard! Race Drivin' Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text Steering: Use the Left and Right buttons to steer. Accelerating: Press the A Button to give it the gas. Brakes: Press button B to put on the brakes. Shifting Gears: (manual transmission only) To shift up, press C and Up at the same time. To shift down, press C and Down at the same time. (NOTE: If you change the shift option on the options menu, C and Up will shift down, and C and Down will shift up.) Pause: Press Start while on the track to pause the game; press it again to resume racing. Get Back on the Road: When you go off the road, you can lose valuable time trying to get back on the course. Press Start, then A to get back on the road automatically. Keep in mind, however, that when you choose to do this, you are placed back on the road at a point before the place where you went off, so you lose some time this way also. Abort instant replay. Press any button, then Start to skip the instant replay on the screen and resume play. Race Drivin' Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text At the track selection screen, you can pick the ORIGINAL Race Drivin' track, a SUPER STUNT track, an AUTOCROSS track, or the CUSTOM track option. Use the D-Pad to highlight the track you want, then press Start. When you choose CUSTOM track, you'll go to the TRACK CONSTRUCTION SET. Follow the directions on the screen to design and build your own custom track. Then press Start to go to the car selection screen, then press Start again to try your new track. CARS: On the car selection screen, use the D-Pad to turn the steering wheel at the center and highlight the car you want to drive. Press Start to go to the track with your chosen vehicle. Your choices include three radical machines, each available with manual or automatic transmission. The automatic is good for learning, since you have less to worry about while navigating the track. Each car has its own characteristics, which you'll get to know as you drive them all. GAME PLAY: You start out with 1 minute 45 seconds of time in ORIGINAL and SUPER STUNT tracks. As you pass checkpoints on the track and Finish Line, you extend your play time. The race is over when you run out of time. You race against an image of yourself that you ran in the previous lap in the AUTOCROSS and CUSTOM tracks. After completing the third lap, you will continue racing as long as you beat your previous time. You earn points for the distance you cover on the road--no points are awarded for distance you travel off-road. At the end of a race, a map of the track shows you what checkpoints you passed. If you've earned one of the ten highest scores, you get to record your name on the top scores screen. (Top scores are kept until the power to your Genesis is turned off or you reset your adapter.) At the start of a race, you'll see a BEAT TO CHALLENGE time at the lower left of the screen. Beat that time, and you'll get to race the current Race Drivin' champ in a Challenge Lap. When the game is first turned on, the champ is the Phantom Photon. When you beat the current champion in the Challenge Lap, your road time is recorded as the new mark to beat. In Challenge Lap competition, you cannot crash into your competitor's car. However, crashing or going off the road for more than 10 seconds automatically ends the race. Obstacles to avoid include drone cars as well as signs and structures. Sometimes, when you're going too slow, a drone car may come up and crash into you from behind. Crashes. You can crash by running into other vehicles, buildings, embankments, and fences at high speed. You'll also crash when you land after taking a jump, hill, or ramp at excessive speed. And you may crash if you go too far off the road to avoid portions of the track. If you're going very fast and you turn too sharply, you can also spin out, which makes you very vulnerable in traffic.

As you become a more experienced racer, you should be able to handle your car at higher speeds. * To get through a loop-the-loop, you have to be going at least 60 mph when you enter it. If you've lined up your car properly, you should not need to steer much. * To slow down for the sharp turns, let off the accelerator and tap the brakes. * Going over 100 mph in the turns is risky--very risky.

GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME THE TWO PLAYER GAME BROWSE HELP FILES Rampart Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text Get ready to experience the ultimate test of your strategic survival skills in this addictive game of war and pieces! Your mission as a Rampart commander is to defend your beautiful shores against the enemy army. Fortify your fortress with powerful cannons, then let 'em have it! After the battle, repair the damage done to your fort by skillfully manipulating and placing vital wall pieces. Surround your castles and expand your territory to increase your power! The opposition won't be easy! The invading forces will employ gunships, flagships, troop carriers, and anything else they've got to stop you. Defend your turf successfully and you'll move on to conquer other landscapes. If playing against the computer isn't enough of a challenge, take on a friend in an exciting two-player war! Place your pieces, aim your cannons, and fire away! Rampart requires both fast hands and fast thinking. So whatever you do, don't lose your head. Because you will--if you lose! Rampart Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text The D-Pad controls the piece cursor, and the targeting sight or cannon cursor depending on the game phase. The Start Button starts the game and pauses/unpauses it too. The A, B and C Buttons are used as place (P), rotate (R), and turbo (T) buttons according to the control type selected in the options screen.

Cannon Placing Phase: * D-Pad controls cannon cursor. * P button places the cannon. * R button aborts the phase. * T button speeds up the cannon cursor selection. Rampart Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Commander vs. Computer: One Player Game If no other player joins in when the game is started, the one player game will commence. Choose between the starting battlefields for beginner (no bonus) and advanced level (5,000 pt. bonus). There is a total of 6 battlefields for you to clear. The object of the one-player game is to defend your land and conquer the invading armada. Destroy their ships, carriers, troops, etc. and successfully rebuild to survive and win. Game play takes place in distinct phases involving cannon placement, battle, and fortress modification. Home Castle Select: Move D-Pad to select your home-castle. The home-castle is worth more cannons and points upon its re-capture, so choose wisely! Cannon Placement Phase: Now arm your castle with powerful cannons! Cannons can be placed wherever there is room for them on your territory. The player is awarded two cannons for surrounding the home castle, and one cannon for surrounding each of the other castles. The more cannons you place inside your fort, the more firepower you'll have in battle. Press rotate a few times if you want to abort this phase. Battle Phase: In this phase, the player will engage the enemy fleet in battle. Aim your cannons with the pinpoint targeting sight and fire away at the invading enemy ships! The fleet is not defenseless; they will avoid your shots, return fire, and land on shore to release deadly troop units. If you fail to destroy a troop unit that reaches your castle, the castle will be set ablaze and rendered unusable, so be on guard! The player can also strategically shoot his/her own walls to make the rebuilding phase easier. Types of Enemies: Gunships: They are tan, and take two shots to destroy. They head for your shoreline, firing aggressively. These ships retreat after one cycle. Troop Carrier: They are dark brown, and take four shots to destroy. These strong ships are smart and will try to evade your shots. These are the only ships that can off-load troops, so stop them from reaching the shore at all costs! Flagship: They are red, and take three shots to destroy. These high-ranking ships are fast, and will fire powerful flaming cannonballs that will attempt to land next to a castle and destroy them early. Troop Unit: They are tan, and take only one shot to destroy. These pesky enemies can only move during the build and repair phase. They will attempt to land next to a castle and destroy it in the following battle. Destroy them with cannon fire, or surround them. Build and Repair Phase: In this phase, castles must be surrounded by manipulating wall segments and placing them on your landscape. Castles, cannons, and existing walls cannot be built over. To successfully surround an area, there can be no gaps or breaks in the wall. When a surround is successful, the fort territory will fill in with the color of the corresponding army. For best results, use larger pieces to build new walls, and use smaller pieces to fill in the gaps. Rotate the pieces for a better fit, position them properly with the D-Pad, then place the piece. If a troop carrier has successfully reached shore, it will glow briefly to indicate that it is off-loading troop units. Watch out! These pesky troops will block your piece placement and attempt to destroy your castle in the next battle. If you are skillful enough, these troops can be surrounded and eliminated. Also beware of craters left by flaming cannonballs--they can't be built over. Failing to surround a castle within the time limit will result in defeat! You'll score points for destroying enemy ships, troops, and walls. Bonus points are awarded for surrounded castles and surrounded territory. After enough points are scored on a battlefield, your army will be victorious, and you'll advance to a new landscape to defend. Eventually, your people will occupy the entire continent, at which time you'll find a beautiful tropical isle on which to retire...But beware--the final battle will take place on the shores of this island. Good luck! Rampart The Two-Player Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Commander vs. Commander: Two-Player Game If the other player joins in at the beginning of the game, the two player game will commence. Controller 1 is for the Blue army; controller 2 is for the Red army. The battlefield and war length can be selected on the options screen. The object of the two-player game is to defeat the other player by strategically firing at the enemy fort and cannons. The game phases work the same way as in the one-player game. Build your fort to be as large and powerful as you can make it. Render your opponent helpless by destroying his/her cannons and by making it difficult for him/her to rebuild. Unless a player is defeated beforehand, the war will end at the number of battles set at the options screen. The player with the higher score wins. At the subsequent execution scene, the losing commander may press buttons "B" and "C" to scream while inside the guillotine, or hold down button "A" if you just can't bear to look. The winning commander may press any button to drop the blade. Continue and Game Over In either the one- or two-player mode, you lose if you fail to surround a castle in the "build and repair phase". You will then be given the option to continue. If you decide to continue, your landscape will be cleared, and a new castle with improved cannons will be awarded. Continuation is limited to three times per game. If you don't continue, or run out of continues, the game will be over. If the other player joins in at the beginning of the game, the two-player game will commence. Controller 1 is for the Blue army, and controller 2 is for the Red army. The battlefield and war length can be set at the options screen.

Press the D-Button left or right to control the direction of the spring. Indra's pulse rifle will automatically target on the attacking enemies -- no need to aim. Indra is equipped with a separate shield that activates when a human is piloting it. It's a good idea to travel inside Indra whenever possible to save your own shield strength. EX-UP EOS: When Ranger X is standing on Ex-Up Eos, press the D-Button left or right repeatedly to move it. Eos is equipped with a heavy-duty laser and targeting computer. Ranger X can move this courier in a limited fashion, but with its auto tracking laser, it's better suited as air cover for ground assaults. Ranger X Weapons Use Up/Down to scroll text Weapons * Flame Unit (equipped): Designed to melt any known metal. * Seeker Mine (equipped): Designed to disrupt the atomic structure of everything it comes in contact with after it's dropped. This device travels in a straight line and it continues to disrupt for about four seconds after its initial contact with the enemy. * Seeker Falcon: Searches and destroys most enemy weapons which are on the screen. As soon as an enemy is on-screen, send the Falcon after it. * Seeker Charge: Ranger X's suit builds up a massive electrical charge and releases it in a lightning-like stream of energy. Once this fixes on an enemy, the charge locks on and doesn't stop until the enemy is out of range, offscreen, destroyed, or until the special weapon runs out of energy. * Plasma blast: Sends balls of plasma energy at the enemy. * Proton Storm: Originally designed to aid in tunnel digging. If you are able to pick this item up it should be more than enough to destroy anything you'll come across. Due to the incredible energy it disperses, you'll probably only be able to use it once before you need to recharge, so make sure to have the enemy directly in your sights before you pull the trigger. Ranger X Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text There is no harm in moving carefully and slowing through each area. Use your head and you're certain to get past traps and eliminate enemy forces successfully. Special weapons are sure to come in handy at one point or another. If you find an enemy that's dug in, drop Seeker Mines and avoid getting hit by enemy fire altogether. If you come across enemies that are extremely hard to hit, send your Seeker Falcon to do the job for you. Remember that your special weapons need light or a strong power source to recharge, so when you find yourself in dark areas such as caves, start looking around for weak areas to blast through to the open air. SUPER SECRET WEAPON LOCATIONS: Seeker Charge: Stage 2, in the cavern area directly above the Power Conversion Unit. Seeker Falcon: Stage 3, a little after where the 2nd Rahuna Artillery unit is placed on the forest floor.

The Objective The team's main objective is to pilot the Apache fighter through enemy fire, utilizing their navigational maps to find enemy outposts, fighter jets, and nuclear missile sites.

It's the team's pride and joy, and they'll use all of its advanced technology to torch the enemy forces of Ivan Retovitz. During your missions, you'll need to replenish the Apache's supplies to continue. Each supply is represented by a letter on the Apache Intelligence Grid Map. In the Air While in flight, your view is directly above the Apache. To the right, the screen displays these elements: a radar screen with your coordinates on the grid map listed below, a graphic representation of the Apache and a damage meter (red) that keeps track of the chopper's condition, and a fuel gauge (green).

You can only land at Complexes with landing pads. You'll leave the chopper and enter the complex automatically if your mission calls for you to be there. Enemy Ground and Naval Targets While in the Apache, you'll be under constant fire from Ivan's ground forces. Use the Apache Intelligence Options to find and get information on each of the targets. The following is a list of the weaponry or targets you'll need to destroy: * Enemy Personnel: Seen as a small, green or yellow moving object, these infantry carry guns or rocket launchers. Advice: Give 'em a round from the 30mm chain gun or simply drop a rocket on 'em. Who said man can't fly? * Enemy Tent Camps: Look for these green tents with enemy personnel activity, then pick a weapon and let 'em have it. Advice: Don't hit tents with flares burning nearby, they're allied tent camps. * Reactor: The reactor powers the electric fences that surround vital enemy installations. Advice: You can take these out with your chain gun, Hellfire, or missiles. * Radar: These targets (big and small) are critical. The less radar they have, the less advance warning the ground forces will have as you approach. The radar also helps pinpoint nuclear targets. Advice: Simple. If you see one, take it out. * Missile Pad: These deadly launchers use a barrage of heat-seeking missiles that don't often miss. They consist of a medium armor level, but their weapon level is high. Advice: Fly past them quickly before they can lock on the chopper, or light 'em up with a Hellfire. * Rocket Pad: Ivan has spread this anti-aircraft artillery everywhere. Their armor level is medium, and the weapon level is low. Advice: It's not hard to fly right by this artillery, but don't stop and look around. When they lock on, they let the rockets fly. * Jeep: These targets have a very low armor level, and usually carry no weapons. They're primarily used to transport military officers to various outposts. Advice: Take 'em out. * M10 Battle Tank: Considered an easy kill from the air, their armor and weapon level is medium. Advice: Torch 'em with your 30mm chain gun, or hit 'em with a couple rockets. * MIG 21: These jets are the Apache's toughest test. When airborne, they waste no time in engaging you. Their armor level is low, but their weapon level is high. Advice: If they're heading your way, you'll get a count down from "9". Aim your Stinger towards the number and fire. Seems easy, but remember, you only have four Stingers. Use them sparingly. * Enemy Helicopters: These choppers carry air-to-air missiles. They're not much of a match for the Apache, but they have you outnumbered. Advice: The Stingers and the 30mm Chain Gun take them out quite nicely. * CB-ia Cannon Boat: These quick and lethal targets use heat-seeking missiles. Their armor level is low, and their weapon level is medium. Advice: Lock on with a Hellfire or spray them with 30mm rounds. * Submarine: These large targets are easy to find, but the price is high to take one on. Their armor and weapon levels are high. Advice: Give 'em the works with 30mm rounds and rockets. They're going to inflict some damage to the Apache, but if you make contact, you should prevail. * Protector Gun: This highly powerful gun protects one of the main enemy complexes. When functional, its firepower can quickly overwhelm the Apache in seconds. Advice: It requires electricity to function, so find a way to cut its power.

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME TRAVEL THE SIX ARTS CHARACTERS AND CITIES ADVENTUREERS AND RINGS HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Rings of Power Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text From the Book of Nexus "Before Nexus, we lived in darkness; the sun shone as brightly as ever, but ours was a darkness of the soul. At last, in a flash of divine light, Nexus appeared, bringing with him the Golden Age. Nexus used the Rod of Creation to restore our world; the desolate planet of Ushka Bau became a paradise. He bestowed upon each man, woman and child the gift of one of the Six Arts. For many years we prospered. The demon Void brought an end to the Golden Age: The new world Nexus had created was one of great beauty and the love we felt for him was powerful. Seeing this, the demon's foul heart was filled with envy. He stole the precious Rod of Creation, and created an age of chaos. Thus began the Cataclysm; a reign of terror lasting 66 years. At last Nexus confronted Void and the two fought a titanic battle for the Rod of Creation. In the end their might split the Rod in two, and each fled with half. Each then divided his half into rings and hid them to keep the other from reassembling the Rod and taking power again. Many have quested to recover the Rings and restore the Rod of Creation to Nexus. All have failed." The Quest for the Rings In the 500 years since the Cataclysm, the Rings of Power have become but a legend. Yet all have read the Book of Nexus, and know of the Sacred Quest to find the Rings and restore the Rod of Creation to Nexus. Only the noblest of men might be trusted to carry out this quest, resisting the temptation to use the Rod's power to his own ends. You are Buc, a top student at the Academy of Sorcery, and you will be the next to undertake the Sacred Quest. You'll form a team of adventurers: a Knight, a Conjurer, an Enchanter, a Necromancer, and an Archer; and together you'll journey to every corner of your world, Ushka Bau. You will search for information leading to the precious Ring. Your party will learn spells, gain experience and advance in rank as you travel from city to city. You will make friends and enemies and fight battle after bloody battle. If you are successful-if you win back the Rings and return the Rod of Creation to Nexus-the rewards will be greater than a young Sorcerer can imagine. Good luck to you and your team, and may Nexus walk with you.

When this happens, the following section will help get you out alive. There are two types of combat. Before a battle begins, select COMBAT from the System Menu to choose between: Manual Combat: The spell menu appears during each party member's turn, allowing you to manually select the spell to be used. Automatic Combat: Party members choose their own spells. If you want a party member to use a specific spell, press and Hold A at the beginning of that member's turn. NOTE: Use caution when manually selecting spells during Automatic Combat; if a party member has begun an action, such as healing another party member, choosing an attack spell may cause him to kill the party member instead. NOTE: Once a fight is in progress, you can't change the combat mode. Be sure to select your desired combat mode BEFORE you go into battle. Many times combat occurs randomly. If you want to start a fight: 1. Stand facing the character you want to fight and press C. The TALK menu appears, offering a list of topics. 2. Press B + Start, or D-Pad Down to highlight FIGHT, and press B to select it. Who's Who Generally, your party stands on the left side of the screen, the enemy or enemy party stands on the right. As they become engaged in battle, you can distinguish them by their shadows; your party has blue shadows-your enemy's are orange. Taking Damage Each party member's status is represented by the Strength and Magic Bars. These bars get smaller as a character takes damage, and if the Strength bar disappears completely, the character cannot survive anymore damage. If the Magic bar disappears completely, the character is able to cast only first level spells. If it looks like a party member is getting into trouble, it might be a good time to FLEE! Hit Points During the battle, each party member suffers damage in the form of "Hit Points"(HP). Messages appear telling you that your party member has taken damage from his enemy(for example: "Buc took 3 hit points"). As you take more damage, the number accumulates; the next message gives the total number of HP taken("Buc took 6 hit points" means he took 3 the first time, and has now taken an additional 3). Pay attention to each party member's Strength and Magic Bars to see how they're doing! Fight Menu During combat, press Start to access the FIGHT Menu. D-Pad Up or Down to highlight, and press B to select one of the following options: Flee When you think your party has suffered too much damage, FLEE lets you attempt to escape the battle. NOTE: An attempt to FLEE takes the place of your party's attack round, and it may or may not succeed. Your enemy continues to attack unopposed for one round. Mood These options allow you to adjust your party's attitude during a battle. Mood can effect the positions of your party members, targeting, which spells each member uses, and the amount of magic points used to cast a spell. Berzrk Stay on top of the enemy; be on the offensive; concentrate on one enemy, doing as much damage as possible; put more energy(magic points) into each spell. Advnce Slightly less aggressive than Berzrk. Hold Slightly more aggressive than Wary. Wary Be conservative; inflict and therefore receive less damage; divide attack to cover several enemies; put less power into each spell. Press B to select the highlighted option. Rings of Power Travel Use Up/Down to scroll text Foot Travel Ushka Bau is a world of varied terrain; roads, swamps, desert and ice, among others. For each mile of travel on foot, a party of six consumes food and water as follows per mile traveled. Following is a list of how the different types of terrain affect your food and water consumption. Listed first is the type of terrain, then the amount of food (in rations) , then the amount of water (in rations). In other sections this same type of information will be given in the same way as follows. * Road: 1, 1. * Swamp: 8, 4. * Desert: 7, 5. * Ice: 4, 3. * Grass: 4, 2. Vehicles When resources are available(such as gold, food and water), it is more practical to travel by vehicle. Land Beasts or "Dinos" can transport a party across most terrain, but are unsuitable for forest or water travel. If left alone for long periods, or without food and/or water, your Dino will run away. Dinos can be purchased from some Vehicle Masters. * Road: 1, 1. * All Others: 3, 1. Boats Boats can travel through narrow waterways and across large bodies of deep water. While at sea, a small boat provides little protection against hostile creatures which may attack you, and as fresh water is not readily available at sea, you will use water rations faster than usual, as shown below. If a boat is left docked for long periods, it will likely be stolen or washed out to sea. Boats can be purchased from the Vehicle Master in most towns, and will be waiting for you at the dock just outside the Vehicle Master's shack. They can also be summoned using a Boat Stone, which can be purchased from the General Store in Mesa, or from some wandering merchants. * Shallow: 1, 1. * Deep: 5, 20. Ships Ships cannot access narrow waterways, but are much faster than boats at traversing large bodies of water, and as they are equipped with cannons, they provide much better protection against attacks. Ships cannot be bought outright; a party must buy passage on a vessel at the rate listed below. If the party can no longer afford passage, they will be set adrift in a small boat. After a short time in a port the ship will set sail, leaving the party behind. passage can be purchased from the Vehicle Master in most towns, and will be waiting for you at the dock just outside the Vehicle Master's shack. * Deep: 1, 1, plus 1 Gold. Dragons Dragons are by far the fastest mode of travel, but are voracious eaters, as is shown below. They can fly over any terrain or waterway, but must land in a clearing. Dragons must be summoned using a Dragon Stone which can be purchased from the General Stores in Mesa, or from some wandering merchants. * For all terrain: 40, 40. The Gateways Scattered across Ushka Bau are Gateways; magical places which can transport your party to other Gateways in other parts of the world. To use a Gateway, one need only possess a Gate Stone, which can be purchased from General Store in Richi. Each Gateway is a flat area of ground made up of 8 squares, and surrounded by a ring of guardian statues. Each square is linked to a specific gateway somewhere. To be transported, stand within the circle(directly in front of a a statue) and select a Gate Stone from your Inventory. The locations of the Gateways are not widely known-lucky travelers stumble upon them occasionally, but the best way to find one is with a Flip Stone-these little stones will take you to the nearest Gateway. Purchase Flip Stones from General Stores in some towns. Day vs. Night Careful consideration is required when deciding whether to travel by day or by night; many tasks or quests must be accomplished during the day, while other problems can only be solved at night. Time is certainly a commodity, but there is much to be said for waiting until the time is right. Rings of Power The Six Arts Use Up/Down to scroll text The Six Arts were given to the world by Nexus at the beginning of the Golden Age. Each Discipline has its own unique philosophy, and its own distinct power over the stuff of life. It is important to understand the ways of each in order to have effective dealings with those who practice them. The Art of Separation The Knights of the Holy Order of Separation are mighty warrior/magicians who have the power to rend objects(and people) asunder. They believe the meaning of life is to be found in 'separating' or disassembling objects into their component parts. They're known by the metallic armor they wear, and by the large broadsword each carries. Their symbol is the Broken Sword. The Art of Summoning Conjurers use their powers to call perfect forms from other planes of reality. They seek only perfection-anything less is beneath their notice. Conjurers are blind, but have an inner vision that lets them perceive the images of this world and many others. Recognize them by the pure white cloaks they wear, and by their pure white eyes. Their sign is the Sphere. The Art of Force This art is practiced by the Archers. They believe that motion and speed are the most important elements in the universe. Their weapon of choice is the bow, and they wear their symbol, the Arrow of Force, on a black headdress framed by pure white hair. The Art of Change This is the Art of the Enchanters, who can alter the very fiber of objects, changing them to whatever form pleases them. These strange folk believe that change is the essential quality of life-for them, nothing may remain the same. Red hair and radical clothing distinguish them from all others. They're symbol is Infinity. The Art of Body The Art of Body is that of the Necromancers. These morbid men and women have a knowledge of the body that lets them heal or cause wounds-in some cases even raise the dead. They believe that Life is but the beginning of Death. They are shown by their black clothing, and the Skull symbol they wear. The Art of Mind The Mind is the tool of Sorcerers(such as myself), by far the most intellectual of the disciplines. Our powers give us control over the minds of others. We seek to increase the power of the mind to infinite levels. We are known by the simple cape and hood we wear, and our symbol is the all-seeing Eye of the Mind. The Spells of the Six Arts As young Sorcerers, you are all of first level of Sorcery, the order of Brain. Your experience is limited, and you know only a few, rudimentary spells. As you progress through nine levels of experience, you will continue to learn spells. You must acquire 100 experience points to graduate to the next level, the order of Reason, 200 for Logic, and so on. Most spells can be learned at the guilds, for a price, and it is possible to learn spells before you are at a sufficient level to cast them. Below I have listed all spells for each of the Six Arts(you will command your party, so you should know what is available). These spells listed are grouped by the type of spell. For example, all Necromancers' healing spells are listed together. General Attack spells exist for each class, and are grouped at the beginning of each class's spell list. Damage The damage(Hit Points) listed for each spell is an average. As your character increases in levels, the average will also increase. For example, when your Necromancer reaches the Order of Cadaver, the Hurt spell will, on the average, cause 12 points of damage to the enemy. As his level increases, this average will also increase. General Attack Spells * are most likely to have an effect * are easier to get * take less power to cast * can be cast several times during a combat turn Stronger Spells * can do more damage * effect multiple people Lower level spells inflict less damage and use less power. All people are born with the lowest level attack spell of their class. HINT: Don't use a low range spell when you are low in health; you would have to get dangerously close to the enemy for an effective attack. Bullet attacks are stronger at close range. NOTE: An asterisk by a spell name means the spell affects everyone in the enemy party. An infinity symbol means an infinite number. Sorcerer's Spells Sorcerers use their minds to attack enemies' minds. General Attack Spells The Sorcerer has six general attack spells: STUN: Causes energy to flow from the Sorcerer's hands and strike the victim for 10 points of damage. (range 3) JOLT: Inflicts pain in the minds of the enemy for 12 points. (range 4) DAZE: Causes intense pain in the minds of the enemy for 25 points. (range 4) SHOCK: Creates unbearable pain in the minds of the enemy for 32 points.(range 7) Spellbind Enemy CONFUSE: Makes enemy move spellbound(evident as sparkling).

It resurrects the Sorcerer's master who aids combat for 70 points of damage.

Rend Spells Rend spells remove body parts. When a body part is removed, the maximum health of the victim is reduced. Therefore an enemy Necromancer cannot heal the Rended character to the previous amount of full health. The last spell DIVIDE severs the head of a victim, requiring a Necromancer's RAISE spell to undo. Ground Spells The Advanced Knight can split the ground as easily as he can split an enemy.

This spell requires a great deal of power. Super Spell REAPER: This spell invokes death himself to fight for your cause. This spell inflicts 50 points of damage on the enemy. Enchanters' Spells Enchanters have mastered the Art of Change. General Attack Spells General Attack Spells do not effectively satisfy the Enchanter's need for creativity, therefore, they only have one: MIX: Mixes up an enemy's atoms for 10 points of damage. Multiple Bullet Spells Enchanters have two multiple bullet spells: SCATTER: Jumbles bullets from random locations for 2 points. FRENZY: Sends a tirade of bullets for 5 points. Small Ground-Ripping These are low power, high damage spells. They place small mounds under the enemy and then drop them sharply for damage. The mounds get higher and more powerful with increasing level. Mutations The Enchanters can change themselves into other objects which attack the enemy. Skill Separation The Enchanter can also separate an enemy from his class or species: ALTER: Turns one enemy into a townsperson for the remainder of combat. MODIFY: May turn more than one enemy into a townsperson for the remainder of combat. MUTATE: Turns enemy into a bear for the remainder of combat. Miscellaneous There are several other spells with unique capabilities. SWAMP: Creates a swamp under the enemy and does 10 points of damage. POOL: Forms a pool under the victim for 20 points of damage. RANDOM: This appeals to the random nature of Enchanters. It randomly selects a spell from ANY class and casts it.

Multiple Bullets Multiple bullets are a dependable, medium power, medium damage set of spells for the Conjurer. Miscellaneous WAVE: Causes a tidal wave to spread across a zoomed view doing 30 points of damage to each member of the enemy party. MASTER: Summons a Conjurer master to aid the attack for one round. SERVANT: Causes a swarm to attack an enemy. Super Spell DJINN: Summons a Djinn to help the attack, causing 60 points of damage to each member of the enemy party.

Rings of Power Characters and Cites Use Up/Down to scroll text Nexus Nexus the Benevolent came to Ushka Bau hundreds of years ago and brought an end to the Age of Sorrow. Using the Rod of Creation, he restored Ushka Bau; he gave us the magic of the Six Arts, and founded the Academies where we spend our lives learning to use their powers. He is loved by all except the evil, Void the Destroyer, and his cult. Void No one knows quite where he came from, but Void the Destroyer and his cult are Nexus' only opposition on Ushka Bau. 500 years ago, when Void stole the Rod of Creation and took power, his evil ruled the world for a period of 66 long years known as the Cataclysm. If he is successful in reassembling the Rod of Creation, all hope is lost. The Red Priests These priests were chosen by Nexus himself to run the Temple of Nexus and to guide His followers. Temples can be found in any city, and the Red Priests are more than happy to preach His word to tired travelers. For a noble cause and a donation to the Temple, they have been known to bring a dead adventurer back to life. The Black Priests These so-called priests are Void's minions. They're a small but surprisingly clever group whose purpose has always been to discredit Nexus. Now they are instruments in Void's plan to regain the Rod of Creation. They are to be feared, for they delight in pain and misery and will stop at nothing to gain the Rings of Power for their demon master. A GUIDE TO THE CITIES OF THE WORLD Inns Inns are located in most cities, and are the best place for a party to rest and eat to regain strength and magic. It will cost some gold, but it's certainly worth it to keep the party in top condition. To buy a meal or rent a room for the night, TALK to the Innkeeper behind the bar. Prices vary in each city. Temples Visit the Temple of Nexus to speak with the Red Priests about your quest. All Temples offer Heal(replenishes strength) or Power Up(replenishes magic points) in return for a donation. Larger Temples may offer resurrection services for a donation of gold. General Stores TALK to the storekeeper at the General Store in any town to restock your party's food and water stores, and to buy or sell trade-goods and other items. Vehicle Master Visit the Vehicle Master to buy Dinos, boats, or ships. Some vehicles may not be available in all locations. Tavern Local taverns are a good place to talk to the townsfolk, or to buy a drink. Houses Private citizens in many cities are more than happy to feed the weary traveler-for a price. When you visit a town without an Inn, try the local houses for a meal. Academies Visit the Academies of each of the Six arts to recruit new party members. Some Headmasters may require certain tasks to be performed in return for information, a useful object, or a new recruit. Guilds As party members earn experience points, they advance to higher experience levels. When this happens, they should visit the nearest Guild Hall of their Art to learn new spells(you may have to visit more than one Guild to find the spells you need). Guildmasters are happy to teach their spells for a price-indeed it is possible even to learn higher level spells before you are experienced enough to use them. City Hall Visit the City Hall in any town when you want to speak to someone with political power; a few coins in the Mayor's pocket can make your stay in town a lot more comfortable. Rings of Power Adventurers and Rings Use Up/Down to scroll text Slash(of the Knights) Slash is young and ambitious with a strong moral sense-the perfect hero. My good friend Hack in the City of Division can tell you where to find him. Feather(of the Archers) Feather is a strong-minded, aggressive young woman. She's smart, skilled with her bow, and longs for adventure. Visit the Archers' Guild in the City of Speed and speak with Guildmaster Arrow-she'll be expecting you. Alexi(of the Conjurers) Alexi is the favorite of her master, Haze, and with good reason-she's a model student and shows great aptitude for her Art. you'll find her in the City of Perfection. Mortimer(of the Necromancers) Mortimer is reasonably amiable for a Necromancer, and a top student-you'll need his healing skills on your journey. To find him, see Flemm in the City of Blood. Obliky(of the Enchanters) Obliky, like all Enchanters, is a little unfocused. He's a good lad, though, and I think he'll serve you well. Speak to Xylotyl of Kaos to learn his whereabouts. Of your quest for the rings, I can tell you little. Below you will find some brief notes I made during my recent sabbatical: The Ring of Division This Ring rules the Art of Separation. The King of Doggania may know something of its whereabouts, if you can gain audience with him-he's recently taken ill and his regent seems very protective of him. Personally, I don't trust the regent; be wary in your dealings with him. The Ring of Advancing This is the Ring of the Archers. It is rumored that the Queen of Richi may know where it is hidden, but I wasn't able to learn anything during my visit-perhaps you'll have better luck with her. The Ring of Thought The first Ring of the Sorcerers, the Ring of Thought is shrouded in mystery. I believe the Red Priest Ak Thul in the City of the Mind holds the key to this Ring's location-visit the temple and speak to him. The Ring of Intuition This is the second Ring of the Sorcerers. According to legend, this ring was originally kept at our very own Academy of Sorcery, but was stolen by a greedy dragon. Talk to El Gripa, the grounds keeper in the Academy garden-he may have some stories to tell you. The Ring of Will The third Ring of the Sorcerers, the Ring of Will is rumored to be in the possession of one Keef the Thief, the leader of the Thieves Guild in Thieves Haven. He's a troublesome sort, but I suggest you find a way to make a deal with him. The Ring of Blood This, the second Ring of the Necromancers, is in the hands of Motarin, a corrupt Necromancer who wishes to use its power for evil. See the Guildmasters in the City of Blood for more information. The Ring of Bile This is the first Ring of Necromancers. It was one of Void's share of the Rings, and the clues indicate that he entrusted it to Pain, one of his High Priests. If you can find where he is buried, the Ring may still be with him. Talk to Curtis in the City of Blood. The Ring of Variation This is the first Ring of the Enchanters. I spoke with an Enchanter in the City of Kaos who believes that the answer lies in a tower on the Eastern side of the great Desert. Visit Kaos and see what you can learn. The Ring of Mutation This is the second Ring of the Enchanters. If the stories are true, it has taken on the form of a woman and is living as a commoner, moving from city to city. Kaos might be a good place to start looking for this one. The Ring of Calling This is the first Ring of the Conjurers. When I spoke to Slice at the Guild of Pieces in Division, he told me about an old wise man who lives behind a waterfall. If you can find him, he may know something about this Ring. The Ring of Perfection The second Ring of the Conjurers, The Ring of Perfection is said to be hidden in a "perfect place." Visit the University Library and speak to the resident expert on Perfection-he may be of some help. Rings of Power Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * At lower experience levels, regain health and magic by purchasing SLEEP and MEALS from inns. They are cheaper than buying HEAL and POWER from temples, and just as effective for low-level magic users. * Travel by day! You'll have fewer encounters with the large bands of roving thieves. * Pay the tax collectors unless your party is VERY strong. * Beating up friendly townspeople is a good way to lower local opinion of you. When the population gets fighting mad, it's a good idea to leave town for a few days. * Bribing merchants is helpful when buying trade goods. * When using Gate stones, it's a good idea to have a boat stone handy; otherwise you may end up stranded on a deserted island. * If you lose a limb during combat, you'll need to visit the local temple to get healed. A simple rest will not bring you back to your full health potential. * Keep most of your wealth in trade-goods; this way you won't have to make such a large donation to the cathedral for resurrection. * Pick up any items you come across. You never know what may come in handy during your adventure. * The value of trade-goods varies from town to town, and each town has an item which they will pay dearly for; make sure to find out what it is. * The City of Commerce is the place where you can buy just about anything-for a price. * If you get a Lottery Ticket, USE it; you may win the jackpot! * While traveling by sea, ZOOM in various locations; you may uncover sunken treasure! * To exit a building quickly, select the CAMP command. * Avoid some hostile encounters by talking to friendly people from a distance, avoiding the hostile people in your way. * To hide from a threatening ship, Dino, or dragon, press B to ZOOM.

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME EXPLANATIONS OF GAMEPLAY HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Risk Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text For more than 35 years, military game players have pitted their battle strategy and skills against their "enemies" in the classic Risk game. Now the Sega Genesis presents all the drama of the classic RISK game of "World Domination"-with the added excitement of video games. Risk has fast setup, fast gameplay, sound and music, and the artificial intelligence of computer opponents. Now you can fight your battles in the Classic mode or pick Arcade, where your skill determines the winner. Whatever mode of attack you choose, your objective in RISK is the same, and simply stated: Conquer the world! To win, you must launch daring attacks, defend yourself on all fronts, and sweep across vast continents with boldness and cunning. But remember, the dangers, as well as the rewards, are high. Just when the world is within your grasp, your opponent may strike and take it all away! Risk Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text Start Button: * Calls up the Main Menu. D-Pad: * Used to change number, letters, move the cursor and aim cannons. Buttons A, B & C: A: To select and enter all choices. B: To exit from most screens. C: Use when indicated by screen prompt. Risk Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text After all the armies have been placed, either manually or by the Fast Computer Setup option, you're ready to get into the real action and try to capture territories by attacking and defeating your opponents' armies. After all armies have been placed, the NEW ARMIES screen comes up for the first player. Each of your turns consist of three steps, in this order: 1. Place new armies. 2. Attack, if you choose to. 3. Fortify your position, if you choose to. Place New Armies At the beginning of every turn, the NEW ARMIES MENU appears and shows you how many new armies you can add to your territories. Press the A Button to place new armies, and use the D-Pad to select the territory you wish to place them in. Then press the A Button again to add them. Repeat until you have placed all available armies on the territories of your choice, depending on your strategy. If you change your mind about placement, as long as you still have one army left un-placed, you may un-do what you've done so far: Hit START to bring up the PLACEMENT MENU, and select Redo Placement. * Press the B Button to check out your position and plan your next move. * Press the C Button to trade in cards for more armies. At the end of any turn when you have won at least one battle, you earn one RISK card. When you have earned a set of 3, you may turn them in at the beginning of your turn, or you may wait. But once you have 5 or 6 cards, you must trade in at least one set and may, if you wish, turn in a second set if you have one. Attack After placing your new armies, decide if you wish to attack at this time, or not. If you choose not to attack, you may still fortify your position, if you wish. If you choose to attack, you must follow these rules: * You may only attack a territory that's adjacent (touching) to one of your own, or connected to it by a dashed or solid line. At the western and eastern edges of the board, Alaska is considered adjacent to, and may attack, Kamchatka. * You must always have at least 2 armies in the territory you're attacking from. * As long as you still have 2 or more armies on a territory you're attacking from, you may continue to attack an enemy territory until you have eliminated all armies on it. Or you may shift your attack to another adjacent territory. You may attack as many territories as you like, as many times as you like, during one turn. How to attack: Use the D-Pad to move around the map, then press A to select your territory you want to attack from. Now use the D-Pad to move around and check out the troop strength of your adjacent enemies. When you have decided which enemy territory you want to attack, move to that territory with the D-Pad, then press A to select your immediate battle opponent. Classic Attack: In this attack mode, the ATTACK MENU comes up. Use the D-Pad to select and the A Button to enter battle strength and attack options: Attack and Defense Options: First decide how many "cannons" you will attack with. The system defaults to the highest number of attackers possible, but you may limit your exposure. Both the Attacker and the Defender each use the D-Pad (if both are humans) to select the number of cannons they'll fire, then press A to enter each number. As the Attacker, if you have 4 or more armies in this territory, you may pick 3 cannons. With 3 armies, you may pick 2; with 2 armies, you may pick 1. Hint: The more cannons you pick, the greater your odds of winning-or the more armies you may lose, or be required to move into a captured territory. The Attacker never loses more than 2 armies in a single attack. The Defender may select how many cannons he or she will use to defend. With 2 or more armies in the territory being attacked, the Defender may use 2. With only 1 army, only 1 cannon. Attack: The Attacker presses A to fire one round at a time. You may keep going until the battle is resolved, or press B to stop and change to another attack option. To stop the attack altogether, press B again. Continuous Attack: The system continues the attack until you conquer the enemy territory-or you have only one army left. To stop a Continuous Attack, press B between rounds, then re-select another option. To stop the attack altogether, press B again. This brings up the main map. Fast Battle: A quick battle that cuts straight to the finish and shows the winner. Arcade Attack Remember, each human player must have his or her own controller. The Defender must use the second Controller. After you have selected the territory you will attack from and the one you will attack, this screen appears automatically. The computer opponent will make its own moves automatically, and will play at whatever Difficulty level you selected at the start of the game. Ready! The Attacker's screen is always on the Left. Both (human) players use their D-Pad to: Aim! Your opponent's Cavalry will move across the screen; the Infantry will always stop. Use LEFT and RIGHT to position the cannon left or right. Use UP and DOWN to select the range: UP fires your cannon ball farther, DOWN fires it closer in. Note: The bar across the bottom of each split screen lengthens and shortens to indicate the firing range. Fire! Press A to fire your cannon. Hitting Calvary is worth 2 points (and reduces your opponent's battle strength number by 2). Hitting Infantry is worth 1 point. Keep pressing A to keep firing at your targets. The Attacker may press B at any time to escape and stop the Attack and go directly back to the map to plot his or her next move. To pause the battle, press START. Resolve The Attack Did you win? In both CLASSIC and ARCADE attacks, if the Attacker captured the enemy territory, this screen comes up to show the territory you attacked from and the one you defeated. The system automatically moved all your armies (except one) into your newly-conquered territory. If you want to change this distribution, use the D-Pad to move them, then press A to enter. Remember: * Your newly-acquired territory must have at least 3 armies in it if you attacked with 3 cannons, 2 for 2 cannons, etc. * You must leave one army in the territory you attacked from. * The system won't let you move more or fewer than you're allowed. Eliminating an opponent: If during your turn you eliminate an opponent from the game by defeating his or her last army on the screen, you win any RISK cards that player has earned. * If winning them gives you 6 or more cards, you must immediately trade in enough matched sets to reduce your hand to 4, 3 or 2 cards. Then you must place the additional armies you earn onto any territory or territories you occupy. * But if winning them brings your total to fewer than 6, you must wait until the beginning of your next turn to trade in a set and earn more armies. Fortify Your Position No matter what you've done on your turn, you may end your turn by fortifying your position, if you wish. You are not required to win a battle or even to try an attack to do so. Some RISK players refer to this procedure as the "free move." Press START to bring up the MAIN MENU. Use the D-Pad to select Fortify; press A. Use the D-Pad to select the territory you want to move your troops out of, and press A to confirm. Use the D-Pad to select the single adjacent territory you'll move them to, and hit A to confirm. Use the D-Pad to toggle back and forth, moving one army at a time. Move as many as you like, but leave at least one army behind. When you're through, press A to enter the final numbers and end your turn. The winner is the first player to eliminate every opponent by capturing all 42 territories on the board. Risk Explanations of Gameplay Use Up/Down to scroll text New Armies Menu This menu appears at the beginning of each turn. When you know how many armies you have available, you can plan your strategy better. The total number is based on the Territories and Continents you occupy, and the RISK cards you trade in. Here's how the numbers are calculated: Territories: The computer counts the number of territories you currently occupy, then divides the total by three. You will always receive at least 3 armies on a turn, even if you occupy fewer than 9 territories. Continents: In addition, you receive armies for each continent you control. (To control a continent, you must occupy all its territories at the start of your turn.) Here are the additional armies you'll receive if you control an entire continent: N. America-5 Asia-7 S. America-2 Europe-5 Africa-3 Australia-2 The RISK Cards There are 44 "cards": 42 are marked with a territory and a picture of Infantry, Cavalry, or Artillery; 2 "wild" cards are marked with all three pictures, but no territory. All cards are held by the computer. Throughout the game you will always collect one RISK "card" at the end of a turn in which you have won at least one battle. At the beginning of a turn, you may trade them in using the NEW ARMIES MENU. During your turn, you may only view them (not trade them in), by pressing START to bring up the MAIN MENU. You want to collect sets of RISK cards. A set consists of three of the same kind (Infantry, Cavalry or Artillery), or 1 of each of the 3 kinds, or 1 or 2 plus 1 or 2 wild cards to make a set. Each complete set entitles you to extra armies-which will increase your battle strength. If any of the 3 cards you have earned has the picture of a territory you occupy, you receive 2 extra armies. Press C on the NEW ARMIES MENU to Trade Cards, and your cards will appear on screen. Use A to select or de-select each one. The screen does not indicate the extra 2 armies, but the computer will automatically place them for you. It places them on the territory whose card you select first. Note: On a single turn, you will receive no more than 2 extra armies above and beyond those you receive for the matched sets of cards you trade in. Risk Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Keep these strategy hints in mind as you play, add armies, and fortify. * Conquer whole continents: You will earn more armies that way. * Watch your enemies: If they are building up forces on adjacent territories or continents, they may be planning an attack. Beware! * Fortify borders adjacent to enemy territories for better defense if a neighbor decides to attack you.

Greedy's devious plot is to brainwash the leaders of every planet and force them to do his bidding. Even the legendary hero of the solar system was captured, and is now Greedy's prisoner. The Planet Flora makes a last, desperate plea for help. The space hero's son Ristar answers the distress signal. Although young and inexperienced, Ristar is valiant, determined, and the solar system's only hope. Ristar must travel from planet to planet and free the brainwashed leaders from the villain's control and ultimately conquer Greedy.

Meteor Strike: This is the most powerful of Ristar's special moves. The Game Screen: Gold Stars: These stars represent the number of times Ristar can be hit by an opponent or an object for each Life. The most Ristar can have at one time is four stars in a NORMAL game, or two in a HARD game. If Ristar is hit by an opponent or an object with one star left, a new Life is used to continue the game. Lives: For each NORMAL game, Ristar has five Lives. For a HARD game, he has two Lives. These will be used up quickly if you're not careful! Point Total: Grab any creature or Yellow Jewel you can to increase this score. Ristar Power-Ups Use Up/Down to scroll text Ristar's Power-ups: There are several useful items to help Ristar on his journey. Find them in treasure chests and holes.

The yellow and black one gives you an extra Life. The black and white one helps you through traps. Restore Star: The gold star adds one more hit to your Gold Star count. The silver star resets your Gold Star count to four hits. If your count is already full, don't pick any new stars up! They might be useful later. Yellow Jewel: Worth 100-1600 points. Pick up as many as possible and watch your Point Total soar. Using the Star Handle: Star Handles are very handy for getting you where you've got to go! Jump up and grab one, and hold the Grab Button.

Continues are listed at the top of the screen. Highlight YES to continue the game from the same level, or NO to return to the Title screen. The game ends when you run out of Continues. Ristar Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Hints From the Heavens: * Watch the demo for hints on game play. * Explore everything. Grab every wall. There are many hidden treasures to find. * Move slowly. Except for the Bonus Stages, there is no time limit. Rushing through the stage quickly to get to the treasure might lead to costly mistakes. Patience pays. * Use all Star Handles. There are reasons why these are located where they are. To get the most use out of them, jump on the handle and start spinning. Then release for a burst of mega-speed. * When you discover how to reach the treasure in a particular Bonus Stage, try to improve your time when you play this Bonus Stage again. You can always do it faster! * Learn to use Power-ups and other items strategically. Timing their use is important. * On level 2, if you seem to be having trouble getting past a tree, then keep hitting it with the B-Button until it falls over, giving you a clear path to continue.

Biff's a hard-hitter, so watch yourself out there. Slater was a skate rat, but got bored of doing damage at only 20 miles per hour. Slater bought a bike. Now Slater can do damage at 140 miles per hour. Watch this unpredictable dude. Ikira is the coolest export from Japan since the Sega. He's into the American scene(which happens to include unnecessary violence). Ikira's basically nice-he's only in it for the money. Sergio wipes the pavement with your face when you least expect it. Sergio has an unnatural passion for his motorcycle, so plan on some serious pain if you dent it. Helldog is not man's best friend. He eats his best friends for lunch. Helldog comes after you no matter what you try to do, so try to outrun him-or out-beat him if you can.

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME THE BIKE SHOP HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Road Rash II Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text To win at Road Rash (and we assume since you're out there at a hundred plus, fighting hand-to-hand with some pretty burly guys and gals, that you want to win), you have to draw on your skills, your smarts and your guts. This is a competition which demands quick reflexes, strategy and a willingness to take risks. But there's one thing above all others that you want to keep in mind: the finish line. It's the critical geographical factor in any race. But there's always something in the way. If you don't get terminally floored by an opponent or nabbed by the law, you're bound to run into all sorts of debris. Rocks, junked cars, deer and cows all litter the road. And watch out for gravel patches, sand and oil slicks! They're every rider's nemesis. And so are the cars! Don't assume they'll stay in their lanes. Road Rash II Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text To jump right into the race, simply select START RACE from the MAIN MENU. Track Selection This option allows you to choose which course you'll ride. You'll get a brief description of each track, including length. Select this option just before you start to race. To pick a track: 1)Move the D-pad up/down/left/right to move the highlight over the track of your choice. 2)Press any button to select the track. The highlight will then move over EXIT. 3)Press any button. Follow the same steps outlined above to select a bike while in the Bike Shop. Road Rash II Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text RACING: The Instrument Panel The Instrument Panel displays useful gauges. Any rider worth his or her spunk knows how to use them. Stamina Meter This meter shows your physical condition throughout the race. If you've taken a beating from your opponents, the stamina meter moves from green to red. The right side of the screen shows your nearest opponent's Stamina Meter. Condition of Bike This meter works the same way as the stamina meter. If you bite it too many times, your bike could turn to cinders. Time This is the official Swiss Time race clock. It's another instrument used to gauge your worthiness on this circuit. Speedometer The digital speedometer shows your current speed in miles per hour. Tachometer This meter shows the engine's revolutions per minute (RPM). This meter appears only in SOLO and TAKE TURNS modes. Odometer This gauge shows how many miles you've put under your belt this race. You can use it to determine how much farther you have to go before you reach the finish line. Just make sure to remember the length of the course you're riding (displayed for each track on the SELECT TRACK screen). Rear View Mirrors These babies show who and what is coming up on your tail. They're especially helpful just after a spill. You can use them to spot oncoming traffic before crossing the road; and, once you get on your bike, a well-timed pop can prevent a competitor from passing you as you're picking up speed. Nitro L.E.D. METER (Nitro only) Riding a Nitro bike? This LED meter shows your store of nitro bursts. Each red light signifies an unused burst of nitrous. When you use a burst, a light goes off. When all the lights are off, you're out of nitrous. (To get that blast of gas, press B twice quickly and hold it down.) Competition Meter (In MANO a MANO & SPLIT SCREEN) Located between the upper and lower screens, these green lines show how close each player is to his opponent and to the finish line. Running Back To Your Bike Sooner or later you're gonna bite it! And it's not likely that after all of the sliding and colliding you'll end up within arm's reach of your bike. You'll automatically make a B-line for your bike. But if you want to run around a cactus or rock formation, just move the D-Pad up/down/left/right. And if you want to pause to avoid oncoming traffic, press A. Fighting Not everyone likes to scrap. But you gotta stand up for your rights! You can punch, backhand and kick your opponents all day long. And if you're good enough to grab a club or yank a chain from another rider, you can inflict severe damage. Don't worry about aiming; you'll always attack the opponent closest to you. Road Rash II The Bike Shop Use Up/Down to scroll text The bike you use to win at Level 5 is not the bike on which you want to learn to ride. Each rider has distinct needs at each stage of his evolution as a rider. It's best to start on a light bike with quick steering. Later you might want to get a bike with more power, and your improved skills will allow you to handle that power (and the weight and slower steering that result). The Bike Shop has a machine for every biker. It supports a full selection of ultra lights and a showroom full of super bikes. We've even stocked nitro powered exoti-bikes. Sorry, you can't ride 'em before you buy 'em! But these brief descriptions should help you decide which is best for you. Remember, no deal is closed until a bike is ridden out of the shop. So look at as many as you like. ULTRA LIGHTS Shuriken 400 This entry level bike is functional but short on power. Panda 500 Reasonable midrange power and a lack of weight make this bike easy to ride fast. Panda 900 A good compromise between power and weight makes this a great Sport bike. Shuriken TT 250 This gray market 2-stroke is a race bike with lights. Extremely light and quick, it can smoke bikes twice its size. Banzai 7.11 This custom bike has an 1100cc engine stuffed in a stripped down 750 chassis. SUPER BIKE Panda 600 The Panda is powerful for a 600, but it lacks a good chassis. The bike can be twitchy and hard to control. Banzai 600 A great chassis allows this bike to hold its speed through turns, but acceleration is slow. Banzai 750 Low cost and stable all around performance make this the most common Sport bike on the road. Shuriken 1000 This bike has lots of power and lots of weight. Remember that when you go screaming into a turn. Diablo 1000 Choice of the power-hungry elite. Faster and more expensive than ever. And it's RED! NITRO Panda 600 N The nitrous oxide burst will give this bike 105HP. Be careful using it in a turn. Banzai 750 N Nitrous momentarily pushes this bike's horsepower up to 135HP. Shuriken 1000 N Monstrous power. A twist of the throttle in the wrong corner will make this bike dangerous. Banzai 7.11 N Nitrous on an Ultra-light makes this the choice of top Unprofessionals. Diablo 1000 N It will cost you 10 Grand to figure out if they can make the standard Diablo any faster. And it still comes in RED!

PERFORMANCE: Increase your engine's overall performance-quicker acceleration, higher RPMs, and more power. PROTECTION: Strengthen your bike's faring to withstand more collisions, endure more spills, and keep your Damage gauge strong. TIRES: Invest in tires that hug the road, and keep your wheels underneath the chassis for a change. SUSPENSION: Helps your bike recover from jumps quickly, and keeps it stable in turns at high speeds. All upgrades are made to the current bike, so they're gone each time you purchase a new one. A bike may be upgraded only once in each area. CONTROLLING YOUR BIKE If you think all you need to be successful in Road Rash 3 is a black leather jacket and a Louisville Slugger, you've never encountered a startled zebra at 120 mph. Prepare to spend lots of quality time with the pavement as you learn to control your bike. * To accelerate, press and hold B, * D-Pad left/right to weave through your opponents, navigate turns, and avoid obstacles in the road. * To hit the brakes, press A. You'll need to brake into turns and when the cops show up-well, maybe not for the cops! * When you're riding a Nitro-equipped bike, press B twice quickly and hold it down for a Nitrous enhanced burst of speed. PUNISHING YOUR OPPONENTS Stamina meters are reduced with each direct shot. When a Rasher's Stamina meter hits zero, the Rasher hits the street. * To punch, press C when you're near an opponent. * To strike your opponent with a stinging backhand, press C + D-Pad up. * To kick, press C + D-Pad down. * To steal a weapon from an opponent, press C to grab as your opponent holds it out. * To use a weapon, press C.

END OF THE RACE There are three ways to end a race: Crossing the Finish Line Prize money is awarded to every rasher who crosses the finish line. However, if you want to advance to the next level, you've gotta finish in one of the top three spots on all five tracks. Wrecked Bikes sustain damage with each crash severe enough to eject the rider. Your bike's condition is displayed on the Damage gauge. When the Damage gauge reached zero your bike is wrecked, you're out of the current race, and you must pay the repair cost.

When you spot a police helicopter, a road cop is bound to be close-by. Watch out! The helicopter tries to slam you with its landing rails, making you easy prey for the upcoming road cop. If you get Busted, you're out of the current race and charged with a stiff fine. In Solo mode, if you can't afford to pay the fine, you may be asked to continue as a Snitch.

It is a world of warriors, magic and machinery. It is also the home of the kingdom of Zebulos. Zebulos is a kingdom with a long history. Its first king was El Zebulos. Now, it is difficult to sort the ancient legends and myths from the facts. The prevailing belief is that El Zebulos was a brave hero who fought a band of evil would-be invaders who sailed in a powerful evil ship called the "Pig Star." These invaders would have brought destruction to El Zebulos and his clan. They fought hard, and though the odds were against them, El Zebulos would not give up. His courage and conviction provided the leadership necessary to overcome their opponents. After defeating the invaders, El Zebulos became the ruler of the peaceful land, and the Pig Star was placed under a magical seal to keep it out of enemy hands. The "Key to the Seal" was guarded by Zebulos and his royal family. From generation to generation the Zebulan family has guarded the Key. Because the Pig Star had the power to destroy whole worlds, the Kingdom of Zebulos has always been subject to attack. An elite fighting force was formed-the powerful Rocket Knights. These armored warriors use rocket packs and mystical swords as well as superb fighting skills to protect and serve the kingdom. The current leader of the Rocket Knights is the brave Sparkster. He emerged as leader when the Rocket Knight master Mifune Sanjulo was destroyed by a corrupt knight called Axle Gear. Sparkster fought Axle Gear and banished him from the land, but there are rumors that Axle Gear has returned to the kingdom. The Present: The kingdom has recently come under attack from the nearby Devotindos Empire. Overwhelmed by the robot-led army's attack, the Zebulan forces are nearly wiped out. The Zebulan empire is on the verge of crumbling. Sparkster feels the presence of Axle Gear behind the attack, and heads to the Castle Zebulan. Sure enough, Axle Gear has taken the Princess! He plans to use her as a hostage to blackmail the king and get the Key to the Seal, but he doesn't realize that the Princess is actually the only one left who knows of the location of the Key. The Future: There isn't going to be a future if Sparkster doesn't rescue the Princess from Axle Gear. It is that simple. He must crush the Devotindos army and finally end Axle Gear's threat before the Key is recovered and the Pig Star is reactivated. The fate of Zebulos is in your hands! You control Sparkster. Are you hero enough to face the challenge of a lifetime?

D Button: * Control the direction of movement and attacks. Rocket Knight Adventures Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text There are seven levels to this game. Each is divided into sub-levels. At the end of each level you will find a boss character waiting to put a stop to your rescue attempt. All you have to do is stop the end boss and move on to the next level. Doesn't that sound simple? What could be easier? Well, maybe throwing a baseball into an empty soup can from 500 feet, but that's beside the point. With enough practice you can do it. You control Sparkster. You must get past the enemies by defeating them or escaping. If Sparkster is hit by an enemy's attack, he loses some of his life gauge. When the life gauge is empty, he loses a player unit. (HINT: In all but the Hard mode you can collect fruit to replenish the life gauge. In Hard mode the fruit is only for fun.) There are a set number of player units at the start of a game, but you can earn more by finding "1-up" power-ups in the game. You can also earn extra player units by earning points. * For 20,000 points you get one unit, for 60,000 points you get another unit, and for every 60,000 points after that you get another unit. When all of the player units are used up, the game ends. But even at the end of a game you may select Continue to resume the game from the start of the level where you left off. * The number of player units that you have depends on the difficulty level you have selected on the Option screen. Rocket Knight Adventures Sparkster Moves Use Up/Down to scroll text Basic Controls: You can move Sparkster left/right/up/down by pressing the D-Button in that direction. If he is standing on solid ground, pressing down will make him crouch. To attack, press the A or C button. Rocket Attack: To use Sparkster's rocket pack, press and hold down the attack button to build up energy in the Energy Gauge. When the energy is full, release the attack button and you will go into a rocket attack. The rocket attack can be combined with the D-Button. If you are pressing down (or not pressing the D-Button at all) then you will do a spinning attack on the spot. Rebound Jump: Use the rocket attack to bounce off walls or other objects. This technique can be used, for example, to rocket up narrow passageways. Before releasing the attack button for the rocket attack, press and hold the D-Button to aim in the direction in which you want to fly. Super Jump: If you jump when the energy gauge is full and then use a rocket attack, you can jump even higher and attack directly to the side from an elevated position. Other Special Moves: Hang: Hang by your tail from a branch or other object. Move left or right; get down by pressing down on the D-Button and jumping. Underwater: Sparkster will float when he enters the water. Press down to make him dive. He can also grab onto an underwater pole or other objects. Flying: By picking up a special power item in one level Sparkster can fly for extended periods. In some levels he will be flying from the beginning. Move with the D-Button and attack with the attack button. The jump and rocket attack can't be used when flying.

Luckily for Rolo, he escaped. Now he has to find his way home. Along the way, Rolo encountered many other animals who were captured for McSmiley and locked into cages. Rolo felt sorry for them and wanted to set them free. But he couldn't open the cages because he didn't have the right key-only McSmiley had that. So Rolo has set out to find McSmiley and get the Keys from him. When he frees the animals from their cages, they will become his friends. It will be a long, hard trip for the little elephant. He will have to climb trees, look for hidden caves, find his way through creepy old mines, and get across rushing rivers. There are four large areas called Terrains he must search: The Forest, The Desert, The Canyons, and Circus Land. (There's another area, too, but it's a surprise). And when Rolo has freed all his Friends and solved all the puzzles, he will find his way home.

The Map Pieces are part of one Big Map that has been cut up like a jigsaw puzzle. Each Map Piece represents a Level that Rolo can explore. Sometimes, you will find hidden Map Pieces; you need to touch these Map Pieces in order to pick them up. You will get a Map Piece when you free all the Friends on a Level. Each time you get one of the Map Pieces, it will be added to the Big Map. You will also see the map Piece in the upper right corner of the screen. Rolo can go to a new part of the Big Map only after he finds the Map Piece that shows it. Each new part of the Map is called a new Level. When Rolo has solved a Level, and leaves it, his footprint will appear over it on the Big Map. You can only go to a new level from the Big Map. You can go to the Big Map by touching a flashing Transporter, or by pressing the Start Button to see the Friends Screen and then using the D-Pad to move Selection Brackets around to the Transporter Square, and then press Start again. When you see the big Map, use the D-Pad to move Rolo to the new Level you want to explore and then press the A, B, or C Button to go there. The Map Bird If you want to see different parts of the Big Map, just follow the Map Bird. The Map Bird flies above all parts of the Big Map just looking around. To get the Map Bird's point of view, press Start when the Big Map is showing. Then use the D-Pad to guide the Map Bird's flight. To leave the Map Bird, press Start again to go back to where Rolo is. Transporters When Rolo has freed all his Friends on a Level and gets a Map Piece, he can leave that Level by touching a Transporter. Touching a Transporter will take Rolo back to the Big Map so he can go on to another Level. Transporters can be used only when they are flashing. McSmiley & His Keys McSmiley has the keys to all the cages. To get the Keys from him, Rolo has to jump on his top hat and make him go away. When Rolo gets a Key, you can see it in the upper right hand corner of the screen. Make sure you don't touch McSmiley except on his top hat or you will lose a Chance. Once Rolo gets a Key, he can open all the cages in the Level where he got it. Only Rolo can open cages. A Key won't open cages in any other Level, and Rolo can't carry a Key from one level to another. Rolo's Friends Rabbits, squirrels, beavers, and moles are all waiting for Rolo to open their cages. Whenever you go to a new area, you will see how many Friends Rolo will have to free there: Up to three of Rolo's Friends will follow his around. If Rolo gets too far away from his Friends, they will get lost and run away. If Rolo gets hurt, his Friends will get scared and run away. And if Rolo has 3 Friends with him and then frees a new Friend, the new Friend will join Rolo and one of the old ones will leave. Sometimes, Rolo will send one of his Friends out to explore a Level, usually because the Friend can go places Rolo can't. To send out one of Rolo's Friends, press Start to go to the Friends Screen. Use the D-Pad to move the Selection Brackets to the Friend you want to send out. Then press the A, B, or C Button to return to the Game Screen. Rabbits Next to reading, jumping is a rabbit's favorite thing to do. They can jump much higher than Rolo or any of his other friends. To make rabbits jump, press the B Button. Squirrels Squirrels like to climb, and they can climb anything that Rolo can't walk past, such as a steep hillside or the wall of a cave or mine. Use the D-Pad to make a squirrel walk up to the surface you want them to climb. Then hold down the C button and press the B Button repeatedly to make the squirrel climb. Beavers Beavers are swimmers. They wear inner tubes so they'll always be ready for a refreshing dip. To make a beaver swim, just use the D-Pad to move them into the water and to choose the direction they'll swim. Beavers can jump out of the water the same as they jump on land. Moles Digging is what moles like best. They can dig into hillsides or cave walls, but not into every hillside or cave wall-they can dig only in soft dirt, which is darker than hard dirt. To make a mole dig, use the D-Pad to move the mole to where you want him to dig. Then hold the D-Pad down to the right if that's the way you want the mole to dig, or to the left if you want him to dig that way, and hold the C Button down at the same time. Stop pressing them when you want the mole to stop digging. Rolo Gives Rides Sometimes, Rolo will let his Friends ride on his back, not only because it's fun, but because its safer. To put Rolo's Friends on his back, press the Start button to go to the Friends screen. Use the D-Pad to choose the picture of Rolo's Friends riding on his back, and then press the A, B, or C Button again. Rolo to the Rescue Enemies Use Up/Down to scroll text McSmiley has a lot of mean Friends who want to keep Rolo from finding and opening the cages. These Enemies are so mean that unless Rolo had a Friend with him, he will lose a Chance if he touches one of them. But Rolo can make an Enemy go away if he jumps on his head. Some of Rolo's enemies are: Lumberjacks Vultures Caterpillars Cacti Hornets Owlbats Walking Bombs Firebreathers Flying Bear Traps Balloon Bombers Snails Spitting Plants Enemies don't just walk back and forth waiting for you to jump on them. Different enemies move in different ways. For instance, Vultures can fly and swoop, Snails can climb walls, and Cacti can jump. Bosses The last level in Terrains will be guarded by at least one Boss. Bosses are McSmiley's strongest Friends and your meanest Enemies. To get into a new Terrain for the first time, you have to beat the boss who guards it. Rolo to the Rescue Presents and Chances Use Up/Down to scroll text PRESENTS Rolo and his Friends will find a lot of Presents during their adventures. Each of these Presents help Rolo in different ways and enable him to do different things. To pick up a Present, have Rolo or one of his Friends touch it. Presents can only be used in the Level where Rolo finds them. Vacuum Cleaners When Rolo has a vacuum cleaner, he can vacuum up things into his trunk. He can then shoot them back out where he wants them or at enemies. He can even suck up porcupines in his trunk, press the C Button. Press the C Button again to make him shoot it back out. Bouncy Rocks Rolo and his Friends can bounce up and down on Bouncy Rocks. If Rolo has a vacuum cleaner, he can vacuum up Bouncy Rocks and move them where he wants them. If Rolo jumps on a Bouncy Rock, he will automatically begin to bounce on it. To make him bounce higher, press the B Button. Lemonade Like all elephants, Rolo drinks with his trunk. But he's too busy to be thirsty; he uses the Lemonade he finds to squirt enemies. To squirt lemonade at McSmiley and his friends, press the C Button when Rolo has some in his trunk. Each glass gives you three shots. he will always squirt in the direction he's facing. Helium Tanks Helium makes Rolo float through the air like a balloon. Use the D-Pad to control where Rolo goes when he is inflated. Washing Machines These are the only presents Rolo or his Friends can't pick up. Instead, Rolo jumps into washing machines and they make him smaller. CHANCES Rolo begins the game with 3 Chances. Rolo will lose a chance when he touches an enemy, falls in the water, falls into a hole, or gets stuck by a spike. If Rolo has a Friend with him and touches an enemy, the Friend will run away but Rolo will not lose a chance. If Rolo loses all his chances, the game will be over. Rolo's Friends have only one chance each, but the game will not be over of they lose their chance. You can see how many chances Rolo has in the upper left hand corner of the screen. Extra Chances You will encounter Golden Boxes along that way that will give Rolo extra chances. Touch a Golden Box to pick it up, and you'll get an extra chance. Continues Sometimes, Rolo doesn't have very good luck. No matter how hard he tries, he loses all of his chances. When this happens, you can start the game over where you left off. When a game is over and the score screen appears, press the Start button to go to the Continue Game screen. You will see Rolo in a cave with a door out on the right and one of McSmiley's circus men with a cage on the left. To Continue the game, press the D-Pad to move Rolo out the cave. To end the game, use the D-Pad to move Rolo left into the cage. You can Continue the game four times; after the fourth time Rolo loses all his chances, you can only start the game all over again from the beginning. Just For Fun: Bonus Levels There are some Levels that don't have any Friends to rescue, enemies to fight, or map pieces to find. These are Bonus Levels where you can earn points or pick up extra chances. When you have picked up all the points and chances in one of these just for fun Bonus Levels, press the Start Button to get to the Friends Screen and then return to the Big Map. Bonus Levels can be played only once. The Score and Game Completion When you finish the game or when you lose all your chances, the score and game completion screen will appear. This will tell you how many points you earned and what percentage of the game you completed. That is, if you finished half the game, your completion percentage would be 50 percent.

Appuyez sur A, B ou C pour faire bouger la barre de force. Appuyez une deuxiËme fois sur le mÍme bouton lorsque la barre a atteint la force voulue. Appuyez une troisiËme fois sur ce bouton pour dÈterminer la nature du coup de pied : Appuyez sur A pour envoyer le ballon ‡ ras de terre. Appuyez sur B pour envoyer le ballon ‡ mihauteur. Appuyez sur C pour envoyer le ballon ‡ grande hauteur. Au moment d'appuyer la troisiËme fois sur le bouton, arrÍtez la descente de la barre aussi prËs que possible du point de prÈcision. Le ballon est envoyÈ dans les airs. Le point de prÈcision est le point o˘ il faut arrÍter la descente de la barre. Plus le tir est puissant, plus la barre descend vite. Toute dÈviation par rapport au point de prÈcision est punie par un coup de pied inadaptÈ. Les barres de contrÙle de part et d'autre du point de prÈcision permettent d'orienter le coup de pied vers la gauche ou la droite. Plus le coup de pied est puissant, plus les barres de contrÙle rÈtrÈcissent. L'ACTION ¿ partir du coup d'envoi, n'importe quel joueur peut porter le ballon, de prÈfÈrence vers la ligne de but adverse. Lorsqu'il porte le ballon, le joueur contrÙlÈ par l'utilisateur est mis en surbrillance dans une couleur qui dÈpend du numÈro du contrÙleur. DÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers le haut, le bas, la gauche ou la droite pour contrÙler le sens vers lequel court le joueur qui tient le ballon. Gardez enfoncÈ le bouton C pour faire accÈlÈrer le joueur qui porte le ballon. Passes ¿ moins que votre joueur ne soit trËs rapide, il n'ira pas loin avant que les adversaires ne s'approchent pour le plaquer au sol. Et ‡ moins d'avoir beaucoup de chance, vous risquez fort de perdre le ballon ‡ ce moment-l‡ ou pendant la mÍlÈe ouverte qui s'ensuit. Il vaut bien mieux faire une passe pour obliger les adversaires ‡ courir. Appuyez sur B pour passer le ballon et utilisez le bouton directionnel pour contrÙler le sens de la passe. Vous prenez immÈdiatement le contrÙle du joueur qui tient le ballon. Coups de pied tactiques Dans l'espace - Si le joueur qui porte le ballon n'est pas bien placÈ pour faire une passe ou s'il est pris prËs de sa ligne d'en-but et doit se dÈbarrasser du ballon, il l'envoie en avant dans l'espace. Gardez le bouton A enfoncÈ sans appuyer sur le bouton directionnel. En touche - Avec le tir dans l'espace, on renonce ‡ la possession du ballon. Une technique plus avancÈe consiste ‡ envoyer le ballon en avant, mais en s'assurant qu'il sorte du jeu en touche. Cet envoi en touche produit un alignement pour la touche donnant 50% de chances de rÈcupÈrer le ballon. Envoyez le ballon vers la touche de la mÍme faÁon que dans l'espace, sauf que le joueur qui donne le coup de pied doit faire face ‡ la ligne de touche. Coup de pied ‡ ras de terre - Si les adversaires sont trËs proches lorsque le ballon est envoyÈ dans les airs, ils risquent de l'attraper. Un coup de pied ‡ ras de terre vous donne la chance de dÈpasser les adversaires et peut-Ítre mÍme de rÈcupÈrer le ballon. Gardez le bouton A enfoncÈ et dÈplacez le bouton directionnel vers le haut ou le bas (dans le sens du jeu) pour envoyer le ballon ‡ ras de terre. DÈfense Quelle que soit votre habiletÈ, le moment viendra o˘ vous devrez concÈder la possession du ballon ‡ l'Èquipe adverse. Il vous faut alors l'empÍcher de marquer des points et t‚cher de rÈcupÈrer le ballon pour organiser votre propre attaque. Le secret d'une bonne dÈfense au rugby, c'est d'Ítre capable de plaquer les adversaires. Si vos joueurs laissent les adversaires se dÈgager, ceux-ci peuvent gagner du terrain et envahir des positions d'o˘ ils marqueront des points. Appuyez sur B pour passer le contr le au joueur le plus proche du ballon. Appuyez sur C pour accÈlÈrer derri re le joueur qui tient le ballon. Appuyez sur A pour que votre joueur plaque un adversaire. POINTAGE L'objectif de vos manoeuvres d'approche est de vous mettre en bonne position pour marquer des points. Au rugby, il existe deux faÁons de marquer des points : par des coups de pied et par des essais. Essais Pour marquer un essai valant cinq beaux points, un joueur doit dÈposer le ballon dans l'enbut adverse (la zone derriËre les poteaux, entre la ligne d'en-but et la ligne de ballon mort). Lorsque le joueur qui tient le ballon traverse la ligne de but adverse, appuyez sur A, B ou C pour poser le ballon au sol et marquer un essai. AprËs cela, le jeu retourne au milieu pour le coup d'envoi. Mais les avants peuvent aussi marquer des points en utilisant leur puissance pour foncer. Vous pouvez amener le ballon au-del‡ de la ligne d'en-but pendant une mÍlÈe ou une mÍlÈe ouverte, puis poser le ballon au sol lorsqu'il est disponible. Une autre faÁon de battre les adversaires, c'est d'envoyer le ballon dans l'en-but, puis de courir plus vite que les dÈfenseurs pour Ítre le premier ‡ l'atteindre. Coups de pied MÍme si les coups de pied ne sont pas aussi spectaculaires que les essais, les points qu'ils permettent de gagner sont essentiels au rÈsultat de la partie. Pour que le coup de pied compte, le ballon doit passer entre les poteaux et par dessus la barre transversale. S'il passe trop loin ou trop bas, tant pis! Il existe trois types de coups de pied valables : les transformations, les coups de pied de pÈnalitÈ et les drops. Transformations AprËs chaque essai, l'Èquipe qui a marquÈ le point peut envoyer le ballon au but et gagner deux points supplÈmentaires. Le ballon est automatiquement placÈ en parallËle par rapport ‡ la position o˘ l'essai a ÈtÈ marquÈ et ‡ l'alignement de l'Èquipe adverse sur la ligne d'en-but. Les adversaires ne peuvent avancer qu'aprËs le coup de pied. Le joueur qui donne le coup de pied, en gÈnÈral l'arriËre, court vers le ballon et la force du coup est mesurÈe par le compteur. AprËs une transformation, qu'elle soit rÈussie ou non, le jeu retourne au milieu du terrain pour le coup d'envoi. Coups de pied de pÈnalitÈ En cas de pÈnalitÈ en votre faveur, vous avez le choix entre une mÍlÈe ou un coup de pied. Si vous pensez Ítre ‡ bonne distance, appuyez sur B et tirez le ballon vers les poteaux. Un coup de pied de pÈnalitÈ transformÈ vaut trois points et dans les parties o˘ une dÈfense solide rend les essais pratiquement impossibles, ce sont les coups de pied de pÈnalitÈ qui dÈterminent le gagnant. Le ballon est automatiquement placÈ ‡ l'endroit o˘ la faute a ÈtÈ commise et les adversaires reculent de 10 mËtres. Ils ne peuvent avancer qu'aprËs le coup de pied. Le joueur qui donne le coup de pied, en gÈnÈral l'arriËre, court vers le ballon et la force du coup est mesurÈe par le compteur. Si le joueur marque, la partie recommence au milieu du terrain. S'il manque son coup, la partie continue. Drops Tout comme les coups de pied de pÈnalitÈ, les drops valent trois points. La grande diffÈrence, c'est que le drop est marquÈ en jeu ouvert, tandis que les joueurs vous entourent et les adversaires veulent vous abattre. Puisqu'on n'a pas le temps de prendre son Èlan, pour les drops il faut Ítre plus prËs des poteaux que pour les coups de pied de pÈnalitÈ ou les transformations. N'importe quel joueur peut essayer de marquer un drop. Pour cela, il faut placer le joueur qui tient le ballon dans la meilleure position possible au moyen du bouton directionnel. L‚chez le bouton directionnel et appuyez sur A; le joueur envoie le ballon vers les poteaux. AprËs un drop rÈussi, la partie reprend au milieu du terrain. S'il manque son coup, la partie continue. PHASES DE JEU ´Rugby World Cup 1995ª intËgre un certain nombre de manoeuvres qui servent ‡ dÈterminer la possession du ballon : l'alignement, la mÍlÈe et la mÍlÈe ouverte. Alignement Quand le ballon est envoyÈ en touche, les avants s'alignent en parallËle entre la ligne des 5 m et la ligne des 15 m. Un joueur de l'autre Èquipe reste sur la touche, prÍt ‡ remettre le ballon en jeu. Si vous envoyez le ballon en touche au-del‡ de votre ligne des 22mËtres et si le ballon rebondit avant de sortir du jeu, l'alignement se fait ‡ l'endroit o˘ le ballon est mort. Si le ballon sort directement du jeu sans rebondir, l'alignement se fait ‡ l'endroit o˘ se tenait le joueur qui a frappÈ le ballon. La diffÈrence entre les deux positions peut atteindre 50mËtres! Appuyez sur A, B ou C pour envoyer le ballon. Appuyez sur A pour un lancer court, B pour un lancer moyen et C pour un lancer long. Les joueurs sautent pour attraper le ballon, puis le passent aux arriËres. MÍlÈe ouverte Lorsqu'un joueur (en gÈnÈral un avant) est plaquÈ au sol, il peut tourner le dos aux adversaires pour protÈger le ballon tandis que les autres avants se collent ‡ lui pour former une mÍlÈe ouverte. Les mÍlÈes ouvertes servent ‡ gagner du terrain en se frayant un chemin dans l'Èquipe adverse. En mÍme temps, on t‚che de libÈrer le ballon pour le passer aux arri res. Pour libÈrer le ballon, tapez sur A pour le passer ‡ gauche de la mÍlÈe ouverte, tapez sur B pour le passer au demi de mÍlÈe en arriËre de la mÍlÈe ouverte ou tapez sur C pour le passer ‡ droite de la mÍlÈe ouverte. MÍlÈe Si le ballon ne sort pas de la mÍlÈe ouverte, s'il rebondit ou si l'Èquipe non pÈnalisÈe choisit la pÈnalitÈ, les avants de chaque Èquipe forment une mÍlÈe. Le ballon est introduit dans la mÍlÈe par le demi de mÍlÈe, puis les avants doivent l'attraper en repoussant les adversaires. Appuyez sur A, B ou C pour placer le ballon entre les deux groupes d'avants. Utilisez le bouton directionnel pour contrÙler le mouvement de la mÍlÈe. Appuyez sur haut/bas (dans le sens du jeu) pour Ècarter les adversaires du ballon et sur gauche/droite pour une mÍlÈe tournante. Une fois en possession du ballon, placez le demi de mÍlÈe dans la meilleure position derriËre la mÍlÈe pour envoyer le ballon aux arriËres. Gardez A enfoncÈ pour le faire passer ‡ gauche de la mÍlÈe, B pour aller derriËre la mÍlÈe et C pour passer ‡ droite de la mÍlÈe. FAUTES L'Èquipe qui n'a pas commis la faute bÈnÈficie d'une pÈnalitÈ pour chaque faute remarquÈe par l'arbitre. Il s'agit, par exemple, d'un hors-jeu ou d'une passe en avant. Des pÈnalitÈs peuvent Ègalement punir des manoeuvres dangereuses comme les plaquages tardifs ou trop hauts ou encore la violence. La pÈnalitÈ se fait souvent ‡ partir de l'endroit o˘ la faute a ÈtÈ commise et l'Èquipe coupable doit immÈdiatement reculer de 10 m tres. Lorsque vous bÈnÈficiez d'une pÈnalitÈ, vous avez trois options : mÍlÈe, coup de pied ou coup frappÈ. Appuyez sur A pour la mÍlÈe, sur B pour le coup de pied ou sur C pour le coup frappÈ. Si vous optez pour la mÍlÈe, c'est vous qui mettez le ballon en jeu. Si vous choisissez le coup de pied, vous pouvez envoyer le ballon en touche ou au but et vous avez la possibilitÈ de marquer trois points. Si vous choisissez le coup frappÈ, le joueur fait rebondir le ballon au sol, puis l'envoie immÈdiatement au loin, vers les arriËres. Hors-jeu Au rugby, un joueur est hors-jeu s'il est en avant d'un coÈquipier qui a le ballon en sa possession ou qui est le dernier ‡ l'avoir jouÈ. Les joueurs qui sont hors-jeu doivent lever les bras en l'air pour montrer qu'ils ne veulent pas le ballon et ils doivent courir dans l'autre sens. Le hors-jeu n'entraÓne aucune pÈnalitÈ si le joueur n'intervient pas dans le jeu. Renvoi du ballon Si un joueur ne retient pas le ballon lors d'une passe et le renvoie en avant ‡ ras de terre avec la main ou le bras, une mÍlÈe se produit. Il existe toujours un risque de l‚cher le ballon dans l'en-but adverse, alors faites attention lorsque vous dÈposer le ballon au sol pour marquer un essai. Passe en avant Au rugby, toutes les passes doivent se faire vers l'arriËre. Si un joueur passe un ballon en avant, il se forme une mÍlÈe en faveur des adversaires. Perte de temps Si vous prenez trop de temps ‡ former un alignement ou ‡ marquer une pÈnalitÈ, l'arbitre risque de vous punir en dÈcrÈtant une mÍlÈe en faveur des adversaires. Cette rËgle empÍche les joueurs d'essayer de gagner un avantage en laissant passer le temps. Rugby World Cup '95 Termes de Rugby Use Up/Down to scroll text GLOSSAIRE G…N…RAL Alignement - Lorsque le ballon est envoyÈ en touche, les avants s'alignent en rangÈes parallËles entre la ligne des 5 mËtres et la ligne des 15 mËtres Sauf aprËs un coup de pied de pÈnalitÈ en touche, l'Èquipe qui n'a pas envoyÈ le ballon en touche fait la remise en jeu. La remise en jeu se fait au milieu des joueurs, qui doivent sauter pour attraper le ballon. Enbut - La surface ‡ chaque extrÈmitÈ du terrain, entre la ligne d'en-but et la ligne de ballon mort, o˘ le ballon doit Ítre posÈ sur le sol pour qu'un essai puisse Ítre marquÈ. En touche - Lorsque le ballon franchit la ligne de touche d'un c tÈ ou de l'autre du terrain. Hors-jeu - Lorsqu'un joueur se retrouve en avant d'un co-Èquipier qui est en possession du ballon, c'est un hors-jeu. Il ne doit ni toucher le ballon, ni intervenir dans le jeu. Les joueurs hors-jeu lËvent les bras pour montrer qu'ils ne peuvent pas jouer. Ligne de ballon mort - La limite du terrain derriËre l'en-but. Ligne de touche - La ligne qui dÈlimite le terrain de jeu. Ligne des 5 m - Une ligne brisÈe ‡ 5 mËtres de la ligne de touche. Lors de l'alignement, les joueurs doivent reculer ‡ 5 m de la ligne de touche avant que le ballon ne soit remis en jeu. Ligne des 10 m - Une ligne brisÈe ‡ 10 mËtres de la ligne du milieu, parallËle ‡ la ligne de but. Lors de la remise en jeu, tous les joueurs de l'Èquipe dÈfensive doivent se trouver derri re cette ligne. Ligne des 15 m - Une ligne brisÈe ‡ 15 mËtres de la ligne de touche. Lors de l'alignement, tous les joueurs doivent Ítre alignÈs entre la ligne des 5 mËtres et la ligne des 15 mËtres. Ligne des 22 m - Une ligne se trouvant ‡ 22 mËtres de la ligne d'en-but et parallËle ‡ celle-ci. Lorsqu'un joueur pose le ballon derriËre sa propre ligne d'en-but, le jeu recommence ‡ la ligne des 22 mËtres. Ligne du milieu - Une ligne parallËle ‡ la ligne de but, au milieu du terrain, ‡ partir de laquelle se fait la remise en jeu. MÍlÈe - AprËs une faute mineure, la faÁon de dÈcider quelle Èquipe sera en possession du ballon. Les deux rangÈes d'avants s'accrochent les uns aux autres et se mettent face aux adversaires. L'Èquipe qui n'a pas commis la faute fait la remise en jeu et les avants essayent d'Èloigner les adversaires du ballon. L'Èquipe qui l'emporte aprËs la mÍlÈe gagne la possession du ballon et l'envoie aux arriËres. Mi-temps - Pause au milieu de la partie. Les joueurs restent sur le terrain. PÈnalitÈ - Les pÈnalitÈs punissent toute infraction aux r gles et se traduisent par un coup de pied en touche ou au but ou par une mÍlÈe. Lorsqu'un coup de pied de pÈnalitÈ est transformÈ, cela vaut trois points. Remise en jeu - Le fait de lancer un ballon dans une mÍlÈe. Le ballon va au milieu du tunnel formÈ par les deux rangÈes d'avants. MÍme si vous bÈnÈficiez de la remise en jeu, le ballon ne doit pas Ítre placÈ plus prËs de vos propres avants. Terrain - Le terrain de jeu dÈlimitÈ par les lignes d'en-but et les lignes de touche. Touche - Lorsqu'un joueur dÈfensif touche dans son en-but, le ballon est remis en jeu par un coup de pied vers l'autre Èquipe ‡ partir de la ligne des 22 m. TouchÈ en but - Lorsque le ballon est envoyÈ derriËre la ligne de but. TACTIQUES MÍlÈe - Lorsque le ballon est au sol et le jeu ouvert est terminÈ, les joueurs des deux Èquipes se tiennent les uns aux autres et essayent de prendre possession du ballon. On ne peut toucher le ballon que du pied. Lorsqu'il sort de la mÍlÈe, il peut Ítre passÈ aux arri res. MÍlÈe ouverte - Lorsqu'un joueur (en gÈnÈral un avant) est plaquÈ au sol, il peut dÈcider de commencer une mÍlÈe ouverte. Il tourne le dos aux adversaires pour protÈger le ballon tandis que les autres avants se collent ‡ lui pour former une tornade humaine. Les mÍlÈes servent ‡ gagner du terrain en se frayant un chemin dans l'Èquipe adverse. En mÍme temps, on t‚che de libÈrer le ballon pour le passer aux arri res. Plaquage - Cela consiste ‡ attraper un adversaire et ‡ le faire tomber. Cette manoeuvre doit se faire en dessous des Èpaules et il est interdit de tirer sur les vÍtements. Le joueur plaquÈ doit immÈdiatement l‚cher le ballon. Passes - Le joueur en possession du ballon passe celui-ci de faÁon latÈrale ‡ ses coÈquipiers afin de contourner les adversaires. Les joueurs qui courent le plus vite sont gÈnÈralement les arri res et les arriËres les plus rapides occupent normalement les positions de trois-quarts aile gauche et trois-quarts aile droite. POSITIONS ArriËre - Le numÈro 15 est la derniËre dÈfense lorsque tous les autres joueurs ont ÈtÈ battus. Il doit Ítre capable d'attraper les balles hautes, d'Èviter de se faire plaquer et de botter le ballon avec force et prÈcision. ArriËres - Les joueurs ‡ l'arri re, numÈrotÈs de 9 ‡ 15, comprennent le demi de mÍlÈe et les trois-quarts. Ils doivent essayer de courir et de passer le ballon plus vite que les arriËres adverses lorsqu'ils sont en possession du ballon ou le botter lorsqu'il n'y a aucune ouverture. Les arriËres doivent Ítre trËs forts ‡ la course, en excellente forme physique et trËs habiles dans le maniement du ballon. Avants - Les avants, numÈrotÈs de 1 ‡ 8, doivent prendre possession du ballon pendant les mÍlÈes et les alignements pour la touche. Ce sont des joueurs puissants, de forte stature, qui ont assez de bravoure pour sauter dans une mÍlÈe o˘ volent les poings et les pieds. Lorsqu'un avant s'empare du ballon, il le passe aux arriËres ou il essaye de se frayer un chemin ‡ travers l'Èquipe adverse. Demi de mÍlÈe - Le numÈro 9 est l'une des positions les plus importantes au rugby, puisqu'il assure le lien entre les avants et les arriËres. ¿ l'instar du quartarriËre au football amÈricain, le demi de mÍlÈe renvoie le ballon remportÈ lors de mÍlÈes et d'alignements pour la touche. Pointage Coup de pied au but - Tentative de coup de pied aprËs une pÈnalitÈ. Cela vaut aussi trois points. Drop - Pendant le jeu ouvert, un joueur attaquant envoie le ballon entre les poteaux du but adverse. Le joueur l‚che le ballon et le botte lorsqu'il a rebondi une seule fois. Cela vaut trois points. Essai - DÈposer le ballon derri re la ligne de but adverse. Cela vaut cinq points. Transformation - L'Èquipe qui marque l'essai peut gagner deux points supplÈmentaires si elle transforme l'essai. La transformation peut se faire ‡ n'importe quel point d'une ligne parallËle ‡ l'endroit o˘ le ballon a ÈtÈ posÈ au sol. Au rugby, le ballon doit passer au-dessus de la ligne transversale et entre les poteaux. COUPS DE PIED Chandelle - Le ballon monte trËs haut mais n'avance pas beaucoup. Cela sert ‡ amener les co-Èquipiers en bonne position pour offrir un soutien. Coup de pied ‡ ras de terre - Un coup de pied court ‡ ras de terre pour prendre l'adversaire ‡ contre-pied. Coup de pied dans l'espace - Envoyer le ballon en avant dans un espace occupÈ par quelques adversaires seulement. Coup de pied de volÈe - Dans ce cas, le joueur l‚che le ballon et le botte immÈdiatement. Aucun point ne peut Ítre marquÈ. Coup de pied en touche - Il existe deux faÁons de faire. Lorsque vous Ítes derriËre votre ligne des 22 mËtres, vous pouvez envoyer le ballon directement en touche sans qu'il rebondisse. Lorsque vous Ítes en avant de votre ligne des 22 mËtres, le ballon doit rebondir au moins une fois avant d'aller en touche. Si le ballon est envoyÈ directement en touche, l'alignement se fait le long de la ligne d'o˘ il a ÈtÈ tirÈ et non o˘ il est sorti du jeu. Coup de renvoi - Il s'agit d'un coup de pied donnÈ sur la ligne des 22 mËtres par l'Èquipe dÈfensive. Le coup de renvoi est accordÈ lorsque le ballon dÈpasse la ligne de touche de but ou lorsqu'il est dÈposÈ par un joueur dÈfensif alors que l'Èquipe dÈfensive n'Ètait pas celle qui avait envoyÈ le ballon au-del‡ de la ligne de but. Rugby World Cup '95 Trucs et Astuces Use Up/Down to scroll text * La premiËre chose ‡ faire, c'est apprendre les rËgles du jeu. Le rugby Ètant relativement peu connu en AmÈrique du Nord, il vous faut lire les rËgles et choisir une Èquipe ayant de bonnes statistiques concernant les coups de pied, les passes, la puissance et la course. * Les arriËres marquent les essais les plus spectaculaires, car ils font des passes longues et utilisent leur vitesse pour battre les adversaires ‡ plate couture. * MÍme si les poteaux sont hors de vue, vous pouvez marquer une transformation, mais assurez-vous d'atteindre trËs exactement le point de prÈcision. La transformation est plus facile si vous posez le ballon aussi prËs des poteaux que possible lorsque vous marquez un essai. * Faites autant de passes que possible pour garder le ballon en mouvement.

Once a vehicle has been launched, it will appear outside the seaQuest near a pick-up buoy. If you return to this buoy, the vehicle will be taken aboard the seaQuest to be exchanged for a different vehicle or to move on. If a vehicle is damaged on a mission, you will be shown a readout of remaining hull integrity. If a vehicle is destroyed, you will return to the launch bay to select another vehicle. Once you start a mission, you must complete it successfully. If you press the A, B, and C Buttons simultaneously, you will self-destruct your mission vehicle, which may be helpful during certain missions. Do not injure sea life during your mission.

ShadowRun Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text CONTROLLING YOUR CHARACTER Up to three character portraits can be shown on the right of the Overhead View screen. Each portrait displays the face of a character in your team. Under the portrait is the name of that character's equipped firearm or spell. If the character is holding a weapon, the number of rounds remaining is shown in the AMMO box. Two bar graphs show the character's current PHYSICAL and MENTAL health. If either of these bars is reduced to zero, the character will go unconscious. Button B will target an enemy by placing a colored TARGET icon over him. The color represents the enemy's health: green is undamaged, yellow is slightly damaged, orange is heavily damaged and red is critical condition. After targeting, the character will automatically turn to face the enemy to attack. CHARACTER INFO Pressing Start while in the Overhead View displays the Character Info screen. Here you can view your characters and make changes to their EQUIPMENT and POSTURE. You can also use this screen to access additional information via the POCKET SECRETARY. Attack and Defense Bars: The attack and defense bars gauge a character's success in combat. The longer the bar, the higher the character's chances of success: * A long ATTACK (Atk) bar shows skill in hitting and causing extra damage to an opponent. * A long DEFENSE (Def) bar indicates that a character can absorb large amounts of damage, thus losing less health when hit. Options Buttons: * Clips: This button controls a character's ammo. Characters automatically reload weapons in combat. However, this option lets you reload guns manually. Characters can also trade or distribute ammo clips evenly among themselves. * Attribute/Skills: This button displays the character's ratings. Each item is explained at the bottom, along with the character's KARMA. Attributes and skills can be increased in hotels when enough karma is accumulated. Each race has its own maximum attributes. * Cyberware: This brings up a list of a character's cyber-enhancements. * Magic: This button displays the Magic Selection screen when you have selected a mage or shaman. Otherwise, it displays the PHYSICAL and MENTAL defenses against magic for that character. * Pocket Secretary: This button opens up your personal pocket computer. Many extra features are stored here: * The NOTEBOOK tracks important plot points and contacts and keeps them in logical order. * Look in the notebook to see your current shadowrun and any tips or clues. * GROUP ITEMS lists the items you have, such as a visa into the wilderness or a package for delivery. * CYBERDECK lets you examine your cyberdeck, once you've found one. * DISMISS RUNNER gets rid of a hired shadowrunner prematurely. * SAVE/LOAD is only active when the character is outside and not in combat. Posture: The character's POSTURE determines the amount of extra effort he will expend to hit a target or defend from damage. The higher the offensive success is, the better your chances are of hitting the target and doing more damage. The higher the defensive success is, the better your chances are of taking less damage when hit. When characters are under computer control, POSTURE determines how they will react in combat. Characters set on DEFENSE will hang back, and may try to heal other members in combat. Characters on OFFENSE will charge forward, trying to do the most damage they can. Character Inventory Each character can carry up to eight items in Inventory. When highlighted, the inventory item will display a picture of the item and additional information. Firearms: In 2050, gun control laws are lax. Almost everyone carries a gun. The key factors to consider when choosing a gun are: * DAMAGE is increased by the skill of the attacker, and reduced by body size and armor of the defender. * POWER is the weapon's ability to punch through defenses. It is more difficult for a target to reduce damage from weapons with high power ratings. * AMMO is the number of shots a gun can fire before it needs a new clip. Since it takes time to reload a gun, the more bullets you can fire without reloading, the better. Shooting while moving, shooting at a moving target, shooting at long range and attempting to hit invisible targets all make missing more likely. WEAPONS: Some firearms are illegal. Anyone carrying an illegal weapon may be arrested on sight by Lone Star. * Semi-auto LIGHT PISTOLS have a high fire rate. Their range is poor. * Semi-auto HEAVY PISTOLS have a bigger bang. Their range is better than light pistols, though not much. * SHOTGUNS (illegal) cause large amounts of damage. Most have a long range and a slow fire rate. * Full-auto SMGs (illegal) can fire three round bursts, all at one target at close range, or hitting a group of targets at long range. These are highly inaccurate but have a long range. * Grenades are area effect weapons. They must be thrown and thus are slower. High strength and good throwing skill will increase the accuracy of the throw. Only the frag grenade is illegal. If no weapon is equipped, a HAND icon appears beneath a portrait, showing that the character can now punch. If characters are not equipped with cyberware (hand razors or spurs), they will do MENTAL damage. Otherwise, they will do PHYSICAL damage. If an enemy attacks you with hand-to-hand combat, you cannot defend well unless you also use hand-to-hand. It is strongly advised that you meet unarmed enemies on equal terms, or eliminate them fast! Cyberware: Human limbs can be replaced easily. Replaced limbs tend to act better than before, giving the recipient abilities not previously possessed. The drawback is a reduced ESSENCE, which limits the amount of cyberware a character can have. It will also reduce the MAGIC attribute of a mage. Once installed, cyberware cannot be removed. ShadowRun Magic Use Up/Down to scroll text Magic: Some characters are endowed with the ability to cast magic. Mages are humans who have studied books and have begun to master the forces by knowledge. Shamans embrace nature, and let it guide them in their magical endeavors. Either way, magic users can be very powerful when they have enough experience. Magic users can call up a special Magic Selection screen in the Character Info screen. This screen lists all their spells, and lets them equip them as if they were weapons. * Use the D-Pad to control the cursor and highlight a spell. * To equip the spell, press Button A, B or C. * Use the D-Pad to adjust the FORCE and POSTURE bars. * Press Button A, B or C again, and the spell is equipped and ready. Magic Spells Magic spells have many different uses, allowing a knowledgeable magician a range of strategies. Generally, the higher the FORCE of the spell, the more powerful it can be. Bonus offensive success can be added, but are limited by the character's MAGIC attribute. As spells become more powerful, they start to cause DRAIN. This saps MENTAL health, forcing the magic user to stop casting spells or go unconscious. Characters with high WILLPOWER can resist drain better. Combat Spells: * Damage from FLAME spells is reduced by the target's BODY attribute. * Damage from MANA and SLEEP spells are reduced by WILLPOWER. * HELLBLAST, MANA STORM and SLEEP are area effect spells. Use them wisely! Healing Spells: * HEAL WOUNDS is the only spell that treats wounds. This spell only heals PHYSICAL damage. The more success the spell has when cast, the more it can heal. The higher the damage and the lower the character's ESSENCE, the more difficult it is for the spell to work. Illusion Spells: * CONFUSION and STINK attempt to distract enemies, causing them to miss more often when attacking. * INVISIBILITY hides the character from corporate guards, but in a limited fashion. If combat occurs, this spell will make characters much harder to hit when being attacked by those who cannot see them. Characters with cybereyes can see an invisible character, as can dwarves, trolls and various paranormal creatures. Manipulation Spells: * ARMOR increases the character's ability to reduce damage. * BARRIER spells place magical walls between characters and their enemies. MAGIC STORES Magic stores offer to teach magicians new spells or raise their FORCE with an existing spell. They also sell magic items. * Fetishes: In order to reduce the mental drain from high-powered spells, magicians carry FETISHES. These absorb the drain, and crumble to dust after being used. * Spell Focus: Spell success can be increased by any magician carrying the correct SPELL FOCUS. Whatever the success rating was before, the magician now casts at the higher rating, but without the extra drain of higher-powered spells. * Power Focus: More powerful is a POWER FOCUS, which increases a magician's spellcasting force for all spells. This device is quite rare, and usually not found in Magic stores. * Spell Lock: These devices have certain spells cast on them forever. SPELL LOCKS include items such as PROTECTION TALISMAN, which permanently increases the magician's defenses, and COMBAT SENSE, which decreases the magician's difficulty when attacking. ShadowRun World of Seattle Use Up/Down to scroll text Seattle Businesses * Bars/Clubs: Bars are seedy areas where fights may break out at any time. They do not require a cover charge. Clubs are more civilized, but demand either a cover charge or a high reputation to enter. Shadowrunners for hire can be found in both bars and clubs, as well as Mr. Johnsons. * Shops: There are three types of shops: Weapon, Magic and Cyberdeck. Many different items are available in each store, and stores have different stock and prices. Most sell only legal items. Illegal items can be found in the more shadowy areas of Seattle. * Hotels/Motels: You can rest for one night in a hotel for a small fee. When resting, characters may gain back some of their physical and all of their mental health. Characters with high BODY attributes heal faster. After resting, you can increase your character's attributes and skills if you have enough KARMA. When you highlight an attribute or skill, you'll see the amount of karma needed to bring it to the next level. * Hospitals: When visiting a hospital, characters can heal their wounds. This tends to be expensive, but may be the only way to heal if the wounds are serious enough. Cyberware is also available for purchase here, but shop carefully. Professional hospitals tend to be more expensive than the chop shops that specialize in installing cyberware. If the entire team should go unconscious during combat, you will be transported to a hospital. There your wounds will be treated for a price. Any hired shadowrunners in your team will also be healed and returned to their favorite nightspot. They will remember what happened, and may not be too friendly if you attempt to hire them again. * Corporations: These impressive buildings are well-guarded, so you must have some reason to enter one. Usually it's to find a package or an employee to fulfill a shadowrun requirement, but some other reason may come up. * Abandoned buildings: Rundown buildings without icons are usually abandoned. Some have ghouls living in the basement; others house the local gang. * Cyberterminals: These look like ATMs in the walls of buildings. Bump into them and a menu will appear: * Call Taxi allows travel to any location in the Seattle area. The driver will charge you a fee and deliver you to your location. You cannot travel to the wilderness unless you have a day-long visa, which can be purchased on Council Island. * Use Vid-Phone lets you get in touch with contacts you make throughout the game. These contacts offer information, services or items for sale. * Cyberspace brings you into cyberspace, if you have a cyberdeck, datajack and functioning MPCP. Running The Shadows Because shadowrunning is not exactly legal work, a shadowrunner has to find sources to give him things to do. These sources are called MR. JOHNSONS. They are usually corporate liaisons whose bosses want something done quick, and do not want to dirty their hands. Mr. Johnsons usually set themselves up in a bar or restaurant, and in the privacy of the backroom booths conduct their business. When talking to a Johnson, tell him you are "looking for a shadowrun." When a Johnson offers you a run, he tells you what he expects, and how much he's willing to pay in NUYEN. Depending on your character's NEGOTIATION skill, you may be able to jack up the price a bit. Finally, the Johnson will ask if you agree to the terms. If you do, then the run will be recorded in your notebook's pocket secretary for future reference. You cannot take on another shadowrun until you accomplish one of the following: * Complete the run you have contracted, * Cancel the contract, * Lose what you had in your possession before completing the run. If you choose not to take the run, no sweat. The Mr. Johnsons of Seattle have plenty of other jobs. Just walk up and ask again. CONTACTS Johnsons can also point you to CONTACTS, individuals who can provide services, equipment and other contacts to you. These usually cost NUYEN, but in general any contact you make will be worth it in the long run. HIRING A SHADOWRUNNER Fortunately for you, Seattle is filled with other shadowrunners looking to make a buck. They have skills, equipment and attributes you may not have. Regardless of that, in combat, the more guns on your side, the better. Shadowrunners can be found in bars and restaurants when they are not engaged in a run. Walking up to one will prompt a conversation. Generally, they will tell you something about themselves, their experiences and the area they live in. When asked to hire on, they will offer their price for hire. The prices shadowrunners quote you are based on their experience, your charisma, and their previous missions with you. A SHORT TIME HIRE will end after a major shadowrun or some other large effort on his part. A LIFER is in for the long haul. However, both types will end their employment if you leave them behind somewhere without healing them. Shadowrunners can have three different attitudes about you: good, bad or neutral. If you leave shadowrunners behind without healing them, if a major shadowrun fails, or if shadowrunners are dismissed, they will not think highly of you the next time you meet. If a shadowrun is successful, their attitude may change for the better, when they will offer to work for lower wages. SHADOWRUNNING A CORPORATION Upon entering a corporation, you'll see an office interior. Each corporation building has between three and six floors, each with its own unique layout. Various items are scattered throughout in safes, and cyberterminals are available to infiltrate the corporation's computer system. Corporations have a number of defense systems. Guards patrol the halls, security cameras watch for unwanted intruders, maglocked doors keep secrets locked away from prying eyes, and other treacherous traps can spring from anywhere. You must find ways to deal with these obstacles, by using skills, items or the Matrix. If you are not careful, you can cause a building alert. When an alert is raised, the front doors lock, more guards are deployed, elevators shut down, and cyberspace goes into active alert. When an alarm is raised, you must either wait for it to end, find a security terminal, or enter cyberspace to turn it off. When you're trying to locate an item for a shadowrun, the employees may have some information if you can coax it from them. If personal skills are not your forte, you may try to use the security terminals for information. Or, you can just search room by room, level by level. ShadowRun Cyberspace and More Use Up/Down to scroll text CYBERSPACE THE MATRIX In 2053, civilization has come to depend on the MATRIX, a worldwide network that all computer systems around the globe are wired into. It is in the Matrix that the concept of CYBERSPACE begins. Anyone with a DATAJACK and a CYBERDECK can enter the Matrix, and thus enter cyberspace. While the technology is complex, it can be reduced to basic concepts. A DECKER connects a cyberdeck to his brain via a datajack, and then connects the cyberdeck to any CYBERTERMINAL with a fiber-optic cable. By either dialing a direct connect number, or randomly searching the Matrix, the decker can then make a connection to a system. Once that happens, the decker's brain perceives the computerized "world" as reality. The decker becomes a PERSONA, a chromed person inside this strange new world. DATALINES become visible as corridors that lead to NODES, large geometrical rooms that allow various operations of the computer system. From a node, a decker can attempt to retrieve private datafiles, turn off security cameras or crash the entire system! Since the systems are open to anyone with a cyberdeck, programmers have installed electronic guards to block passage into the nodes. These guards are called ICs, for intrusion countermeasures. The IC's main function is to keep deckers out! Some simply block access and alert the system, others attack the decker's programs, and the worst type can attack the decker himself! CYBERDECK INVENTORY When a program is highlighted, information about it appears to the right. Selecting a program loads it into the cyberdeck, if enough memory is free. Selecting a previously loaded program gives you the option to delete it, freeing the memory for another program. The program's SUCCESS and DEFENSE bars are also shown when the program is highlighted. The buttons select various postures, and different postures change the bars, just as in the Overhead View screen. CYBERINFO This shows the stats of the cyberdeck you own, and lets you see your current MATRIX RUN requirements. STORAGE This shows files you have picked up, and gives you the opportunity to delete some if storage is too tight. SYSMAP This shows you an overhead view of where you are, and allows you to retreat to the last node if things look too difficult. You cannot retreat once combat has begun. JACK OUT This lets you leave the system. Black IC may block your attempt to jack out during combat. GETTING INTO THE MATRIX: Press Start to enter the Matrix. LEFT HUD The left HEADS UP DISPLAY (HUD) shows the currently selected program, its last result, rate of refresh (delay before next attack), and alert status (None, Passive or Active). RIGHT HUD The right HUD displays the node type you are about to enter. The other fields will be question marks until node is fully analyzed: * If the node is analyzed completely, the HUD will display the node's security color and rating, the type and strength of the IC defending it, and any ICs that may be hiding. * If the node is not completely analyzed, only some of this information may appear. NODE The large geometrical object that scrolls close is the current node you can attempt to enter. If it is unguarded, you can enter instantly. However, most nodes are guarded by IC. Unknown IC looks like a spinning diamond until alerted or successfully analyzed; then it turns into its true form. PERSONA The chromed man is your computer PERSONA. Its profile will also be shown at the right of the deck panel, along with your current cybercondition. If the persona's cybercondition drops to zero, the decker will be dumped from the system. When under attack by Black IC, the profile will change to the character profile, and the condition monitor will represent the character's PHYSICAL health. If this depletes, the character will go unconscious. DEALING WITH IC Unless the node is unguarded, you will see a spinning diamond in front of it. This is an un-analyzed IC, and it stops you from entering. By using your programs against it, you may be able to enter the node and continue exploring the Matrix. Note: When properly analyzed or alerted, the spinning diamond will change into its proper image. When a program is loaded in the deck, it appears as an icon at the bottom of the screen. The bar below the icon begins to fill as the program loads from storage into active memory. The bigger the program, the longer the load time. A program must finish loading before the next program can begin. If you operate one program while another is loading, the loading process will pause until the program is completed. * Use the D-Pad to select the program you want to run. * Press Button A, B or C to launch the program. Each button has a posture attached to it: * Button A = Offensive posture * Button B = Neutral posture * Button C = Defensive posture. The postures work much like the overhead combat postures, moving your bonus successes to where you want them. The maximum bonus you can place in offense is equal to the rating of the program you are using. The maximum in defense is equal to the MPCP rating of the deck (the technology is holding back whatever skill you may have). Note: When starting out, it is highly recommended that you use Button B, neutral posture, only. IC TYPES This section lists the different types of IC and describes what they do and any special ways to defeat them. All IC except the two TAR ICs can be defeated by ATTACK and SLOW or bypassed by SLEAZE. ACCESS/BARRIER: ACCESS acts as a locked door, waiting for the correct passcode before it opens. BARRIER acts as a security door, locked tight. DECEIVE does not work against BARRIER, as passcodes are not accepted. Both ICs send alert signals when activated. If the alert signal gets to the end of the screen, the ALERT status may upgrade. Depending on the length of the DEFENSE bar (determined by your button press), you may jam the alert packet when it finally goes off screen. If this occurs, the alert status will not change. KILLER/BLASTER: KILLER and BLASTER attack when activated, doing damage to the persona. If BLASTER destroys a persona, it may send an electrical blast to the cyberdeck, burning the persona and his MPCP chips and making it impossible to connect to cyberspace until repaired. TRACE AND DUMP/TRACE AND BURN: When activated, a TRACE IC sends its "head" out to trace the origin of the decker. If the head gets off screen before the decker defeats the IC, the decker is dumped from the system. TRACE AND BURN will attempt to burn the deck just like BLASTER when the decker is dumped. RELOCATE can be run on either TRACE IC in an attempt to cancel the trace instantly. TAR PAPER/TAR PIT: If a program fails to run on an IC with a TAR IC behind it, the TAR IC instantly activates, sending an active alert to the system. TAR PAPER only destroys the failed program in active memory, while TAR PIT destroys the program in both active memory and storage. There is no way to disable a TAR IC once it has been triggered. BLACK IC: BLACK IC is greatly feared. It attacks the decker, not the persona. A decker may go unconscious if the BLACK IC is successful. DECEIVE does not work against it, ARMOR does not protect against it, and MEDIC does not heal damage from it. If you attempt to jack out while under attack, the BLACK IC may stop you. If it is successful, you will take PHYSICAL damage. If the attack is unsuccessful, you may still take MENTAL damage from the encounter. ALERTS When the system moves to PASSIVE ALERT, all ICs become more powerful, with their strengths increased by one. When the system moves to ACTIVE ALERT, all IC strength increases by one more. If an IC is hiding, it will appear. If you are inside a corporation, the BUILDING ALERT will also activate. If the building alert is active when you enter cyberspace, it will change to an active alert. NODES Nodes have four security colors: blue, green, orange and red. Blue nodes are the weakest, so weak they cannot have IC defend them. Red nodes are the most secure, and thus are usually only found in corporation and top government systems. Nodes are rated from 1 to 6. The higher the rating, the more difficult it is to run programs against it and its IC. An Access 4 IC in a Rating 6 node is tougher than an Access 4 IC in a Rating 4 node. ENTERING A NODE Once you enter a node, you can chose from a list of options based on the node type. Choosing LEAVE NODE displays a system map. Use the D-Pad to select your next destination. As you penetrate deeper into the system, you will see more of it on the map. A map of an explored system will remain in the cyberdeck's memory until a new system is entered. Operating a node is based on your COMPUTER skill and affected by the node's color and security rating. If you fail to operate the node, the system will inform you so. The longer you remain inside a node, the higher the chances are of your being detected. Once you are detected, the system upgrades the ALERT status. If already at ACTIVE ALERT, the system overloads and shuts down briefly, dumping you from the system. SYSTEM ACCESS NODE (SAN) You must enter this node when entering the system from a street cyberterminal. DATASTORES (DS) These hold data which you can use to complete shadowruns or sell for money to a fixer. Some datastores hold clues and information which may be useful to you in completing the game. SLAVE NODES (SN) When running a corp, use these nodes to turn off hazards such as security cameras and maglocked doors. These items will remain off until another alert is tripped, when they may come back on line. I/0 PORTS (IOP) These can be entrance points to the system from inside a corporation, or openings to short cuts through the system. Locking these when running a corp may reduce the likelihood of the corp activating any slave nodes you have turned off. SUB-PROCESSOR UNIT (SPU) These allow access to other nodes. SPUs also give information about the nodes that directly connect to them. CENTRAL PROCESSOR UNIT (CPU) Once inside a CPU, you can cancel alerts, teleport to any node in the system or crash the entire system in one fell swoop. If the system crashes when you're inside a corp, any alerts end, all cameras stop and all maglocked doors become unlocked. BUYING UPGRADES Certain stores sell items that deckers can use to beef up their decks. These items include programs, mods, deck add-ons and improved cyberdecks. PROGRAMS The higher the level of a program, the more bonuses you can use with it. This is extremely important against highlevel systems. Of course, the higher the program level, the higher its cost and the size of the program. COMBAT Generally, two types of programs are used to blast through IC. One is ATTACK, which can damage any IC and cancel any alert packets on screen. The other is SLOW, which slows the IC's reactions. If slowed enough, the IC will crash. Experimental combat programs are rumored to exist. DEFENSIVE These programs are usually used in combat, and help you heal or avoid damage. Defensive programs degrade after they are used, which means they have to be reloaded. This makes healing in combat difficult, all the more so if the deck has a slow load rate. MASKING/SENSE These programs let you deceive the IC instantly, as opposed to hitting it again and again in combat. The downside is that, if unsuccessful, they can alert the IC, causing trouble later. These programs often have drawbacks, such being useful only against certain types of IC. ANALYZE Let's you see what you are up against in the node, before you run any other programs. If it succeeds, information will appear on the right HUD. Depending on how successful the program was, some or all of the info may be revealed. Once a node is analyzed, the PROBABILITY BARS on the side of the program will activate. These show the basic successes a program has against IC. The larger the bar, the better the chances are of running the program successfully. DECK PERSONA CHIPS Inside the deck are five PERSONA CHIPS. Each one has a certain function, usually something that increases programs of a certain type. While high-rated programs are important for quick success, high-rated persona chips stop the enemy from resisting your efforts, allowing ever swifter victories. Four of these chips can be upgraded, but the MPCP can only be repaired. In order to get a higher MPCP, you must purchase a better cyberdeck. DECK ADD-ONS These increase the attributes of your deck ... up to a certain point. Memory, storage and load speed increases are all limited by the MPCP. Buying a better deck with a higher MPCP will increase these limits. RESPONSE has a limit of three increases. TRADING UP When you outgrow your current deck, there are others to trade up to. When you trade up, your programs, persona chips, memory and storage all upgrade with the new deck, along with the MPCP increase. Response and load speed are set to what the new deck offers.

GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Shaq-Fu Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text THE STORY OF SHAQ-FU Long ago and far away, in a place called The Second World, there ruled the heartless sorcerer Sett Ra. His hunger for power still gnawed at him even though his dominance over the Second World was unchallenged; he longed to extend his grasp to the fair First World, Earth. Sett Ra's plan was simple. He would destroy the Pharaoh of Egypt and usurp his throne. He created a perfect assassin from his own shadow who would serve him without question. This shadow became Beast, the mightiest and most loyal of all Sett Ra's minions. Beast destroyed the Pharaoh, and the disguised Sett Ra soon sat upon his throne. However, the Pharaoh's son Ahmet was not deceived. He brazenly confronted the powerful sorcerer, threatening to reveal him. Sett Ra called forth Beast from his shadowy other domain. Ahmet barely escaped from the palace to the Great Desert, where his grandfather, Leotsu the Wise, dwelt as a monk and hermit. Leotsu and Ahmet united with a coven of powerful wizards from the lands beyond Egypt, and their combined power was able to send Sett Ra back to the Second World, comatose and imprisoned within a rune-encrusted pyramid. He slumbered for a millennium, bound by the wrappings of a mummy. Beast roamed the Second World, dedicated to finding and releasing his dread master. Successful at last, Beast and Sett Ra vow to wreak havoc on those who stopped them before. They have gathered a battalion of formidable fighters to further this end. To regain his full strength and to end his exile from the First World, Sett Ra must perform an ancient ritual upon a descendant of Ahmet. Beast has now returned from Earth with the child Nezu, a child in whose veins the royal blood runs pure. All is ready for the final cataclysmic battle-only the Chosen One can stop Sett Ra now. One who possesses strength, spirituality, courage, agility, intelligence and unsurpassed skill in the martial arts. Where will the world find such a one? Only Shaq knows.

GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Shadow Dancer Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text After bringing down the Neo Zeed organization, Joe Musashi found that his skills weren't needed anymore. He went to New York City and spent some time with Kato, his former martial arts student. Musashi returned to his native land, refreshed and relaxed. Kato, meanwhile, heard that some nasty characters had taken over a local elementary school, and were holding the children as hostages. Naturally, he went to try and help the kids. What he found was shocking... Kato was severely wounded at the school, and was not expected to survive. When he got the news, Musashi raced back to New York. But before he could get to the hospital, Kato passed away, leaving nothing but memories and his faithful dog, Yamato. Overcome with grief and rage, Joe Musashi promised Kato's mother that he would avenge her son's death. Kato perished at the hands of one of the many Ninja warriors belonging to Union Lizard, a frighteningly vast and powerful group that took orders from a hideous, gigantic reptilian form. Since it could not communicate through words, the reptile's instinct guided it and the many soldiers on a path that would result in world domination-if no one stopped them. They've taken over New York, and are holding many terrified people hostage. Can you guide Joe Musashi and Yamato, the Shinobi dog, through the ring of fire and triumph over this evil force?

Start Button: * Press to start the game. * Press to open the Options screen. * Press to pause the action, and to resume play. Button A: * Press to use Ninjutsu, the ancient and powerful Shinobi magic. Button B: * Press to attack by throwing Shuriken (Death Stars), kicking, punching, or swinging the Shinobi Sabre. * Press to send Yamato, your dog, after an enemy. Button C: * Press to jump. Shadow Dancer Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Joe Musashi, hoping to avenge the death of his pupil, Kato, goes into battle along with his late student's faithful dog, Yamato. The two of them fight their way through the streets of Brooklyn, lock horns with enemies atop the Statue of Liberty, storm unknowingly into the danger that lurks inside a cave, and finally reach the hideout of the reptile Sauros! To get through all of these dangers, you must master the different attack techniques. ATTACK TECHNIQUES: Jumping: Enemies and hostages often appear on a higher or lower level, so you must learn how to get to them. To jump to a higher floor, press and hold the D-Button up and then press the Jump Button (selected at the Options screen). To jump down, press and hold the D-Button down and then press the Jump Button. There's one location where you'll have to jump a high fence. To jump over from the near side, press the D-Button up and then press the Jump Button. To jump toward you, press the D-Button down and then press the Jump Button. Assault: Musashi normally attacks by throwing Shuriken...or by swinging his mighty Sabre! There's a particular Item that gives Musashi incredible power. His Sabre is replaced by a Beam shot, and he gains two new weapons-a punch and a kick. When Musashi is standing, he attacks nearby foes with a lethal kick. When squatting, he unleashes a thunderous punch! Ninjutsu: The Shinobi warriors of the present make good use of a gift from their ancestors. Ninjutsu is the strongest form of Shinobi combat magic, and Joe Musashi can cast those spells as well as his great-grandfather did! There are three spells you can use when you're outnumbered in battle. Don't waste them in an ordinary situation! You can cast only one spell per stage. The type of spell you can use is predetermined, but you can believe that it's very effective in almost any situation! Note: These spells are not very useful against enemy Aides! Columns of fire cook your enemies. Watch as they go up in smoke! Two tornadoes join forces to blow your foes away! Meteorites fall from the sky like a killer rain, destroying all villains in the vicinity! Musashi's Best Friend: Yamato, once the pet of Musashi's late friend Kato, now gives his loyalty to our hero. Yamato isn't just a spectator-he'll lay down his very life for you! To send him after an enemy, press and hold Button B. Watch Yamato's Attack gauge at the bottom center of the screen. When it becomes full, release Button B and your dog charges at the bad guy, with only one thing on his canine mind! There are times when Yamato can't attack: 1) When there are no enemies on the screen. 2) When Yamato and the enemies are on different floors. 3) When an enemy Yamato was planning to assault suddenly jumps up or down to a different level. In this case, Yamato charges straight ahead, and after seeing that there's no one there, returns to his master's side. Once you see that Yamato has a good hold on an enemy, move Musashi in and finish the bad guy off quickly! If you don't, Yamato becomes tiny and can't attack for a short time. Also, if Yamato attacks an enemy who's particularly good at self-defense, he'll get hurt. You can even hear the poor pup whimper as he scoots back to Musashi's side! If Yamato is hurt, he'll regain his size and energy if the timer reaches zero, when you use Ninjutsu, or when you rescue one of the captives. Let Joe Musashi do most of the dirty work, and save Yamato for desperate situations! Items: As you guide Musashi and Yamato through the gauntlet of horrors, Item symbols pop up. Run over the Items to pick them up. Benefits include Bonus Points, extra players and Power Up Items. The symbols appear while you save prisoners-watch for them! Shadow Dancer Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Advice from the Masters: * Learn the attack techniques of each kind of soldier and warrior. You see them in each stage of the game! * You'll find Power Up Item symbols as you rescue captives. Your attack becomes twice as lethal! * Each of the enemy Aides has a weak point. To defeat them, you must find that soft spot! * When you're in mid-jump, you can't be hurt. Don't be afraid to change levels in search of hostages! * Valuable bonuses are available after each round you clear. Shoot all Ninjas!

MEDICAL HERB: This inexpensive item can be bought in any shop in Rune. It restores a certain number of HPs to a character when he/she uses it.

PROMOTE: Once a character achieves level 10 or higher, you can promote that character, which gives them a number of advantages. CURE: Some of the creatures in Runefast's army can infect your characters with diseases or poisons. Unless your healer has the Detox spell, or someone is carrying special medicines, you'll need to get that character back to the Priest quickly, or you'll be paying for a Raise spell instead of a Cure spell!

Shining Force Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * All members have strengths and weaknesses, such as moving slowly or fighting well against certain opponents. Keep your group fairly close together to avoid having anyone singled out and surrounded. Also, try to protect your leader and weaker members of the group. * Jumping into battle recklessly is not the mark of a great leader. To defeat the Runefaust minions, you should first look at enemies' Stat sheets and find out where the strongest warriors are. Then decide how you are going to attack. * As you know, Rune is a magnificent land, filled with hills, mountains, valleys and rivers. Your enemies will try to use the different terrain's to their advantage. Since you are as often on the offensive as you are on the defensive, you must think about how to position your troops to the greatest advantage. * Promotions: When a member reaches level 10, they can be promoted to a new fighting class. Once that character is promoted, you'll be surprised at his or her increase in HP, Speed, and Attack strength. What's more, that character will be able to use more advanced weapons than before. On the other hand, they will begin their new class with slightly decreased statistics. The trick is to spread your promotions out to avoid having all your characters' characteristics from dropping at the same time. * Many characters will join you. As only 12 warriors can go out in any party, so don't overlook a member just because he or she is new, and don't keep other members just because you're used to them. * Be prepared to fight to the finish if there is no escape, but remember that if the main character is defeated, you'll have to start back at the beginning of the battle. The moral is that if things look hopeless, a fool keeps fighting and a wise man retreats, rethinks and tries again.

You will now be able to rename all your other characters, except Jogurt. (This code can be difficult) PARTY CONSTRUCTION TIPS: Since healers are very weak fighters, the best way for them to gain experience is to heal your other characters frequently in battle. Travel with a diverse attack party, such as: * 2 or 3 centaurs. * 1 or 2 warriors. * 2 mages * 1 or 2 archers * 1 or 2 flying characters. * 2 healers STRATEGIES: You must keep your characters together. You can wait for monsters to approach or you can move up to the monsters quickly. There only bad strategy is to separate your characters. CURSED WEAPONS: To get rid of a cursed weapon or item, go see the Priest at the Shrine. He will remove the cursed item from the character. There is no way to remove a curse from a weapon or item, so you should sell it or throw it away. The cursed items are: * Demon Rod * Devil Lance * Sword of Darkness * Black Ring * Evil Ring

An ancient evil has broken free, and is spreading over the land of Rune, devastating all that it touches. Is there anyone, or anything, that can stop it? Start the adventure and find out!

Shining Force II Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Your Adventure Begins: As a student of Astral the Wizard, you and your friends study all the usual subjects: reading, writing, and swordfighting. Your adventure begins on what is to be your last day of school, not to mention the last time you'll see your home, and even the land where you were born. Dark events are taking place on the island of Grans. The two jewels which seal the Door to Darkness have been stolen from the Ancient Tower. These jewels were the barriers which kept Zeon, a creature of awesome evil power, trapped inside the tower. Finding where the jewels have been taken, and why, is a task that only the bravest of adventurers would dare to undertake. Mission Commands: Various options are available in each situation you and your team find yourselves in. In non-battle situations, press Button A to see your Options and press Button B to close the Options window. In battles, press Button B, move the white highlight brackets to an unoccupied area on the map and press Button A to see your special game options. Mission Requirements: Make sure you live up to your responsibility as the Leader of the Shining Force by not getting into dangerous situations without ample support. Once the team's Leader is defeated, the team is automatically returned to the last place the game was saved at, minus half their gold. If the battle situation gets too intense, use your Egress spell to retreat safely, or make sure some other members are carrying Angel Wings to bring you all back to an abbey. Once you've reached an abbey or other safe area (such as a town), your characters' HPs and Magic Points will be completely restored. However, characters that haven't been cured remain stunned, poisoned or cursed, and characters that have been exhausted in battle won't be present for the next one. Make sure to get to an abbey. Raise all the characters that have been exhausted, Cure all characters who've been stunned, poisoned or cursed, and promote any characters who have reached a sufficient level. Next, purchase all the supplies you need, then save the game. If you quit the game at this point, you'll be able to jump right into action the next time you play. Shining Force II Various Options Use Up/Down to scroll text Walkabout Options: In non-battle situations, such as walking around town, you can access your Walkabout options by pressing Button A or C. If your Leader is standing next to someone, start a conversation by pressing Button C. Likewise, standing in front of an item and pressing Button C allows you to check the item out. You may find something useful! Member: Select this option to see information about a character. Move the highlight box to the name of the character you want to see. Press the D-Button left or right for points information and press Button A or C to access his or her Statistics chart. Item: If you want to use an item that one of your characters is carrying, select this and a second set of options appears on the screen. Search: Use this to open treasure chests, take a look at objects and explore areas that look suspicious. You will be required to use this command in certain situations. Magic: This command allows you to use magic spells. NOTE: With the exception of Detox spells, magic spells don't work in non-battle areas. Item Options: These options allow your characters to do various things with the items they're carrying. First, choose what you want to do with the item. Next highlight the character who is carrying the item. The items each character is carrying are displayed. Press the D-Button in the direction of the desired item to highlight it, and press Button A or C. To leave the window, press Button B. Use: This command lets you use any item that any of your characters are carrying. Equip: Use this command to equip a character with a weapon. Drop: Use this command to discard an item someone is carrying. Give: Use this command to transfer items between characters. Select the item as explained above, and select the character you'll give it to the same way. Shop Options: There are usually two shops in every town-one selling weapons and the other selling special items and healing potions. These shops sometimes have a sign outside which has a picture of a bottle or a sword on it. Step inside, walk up to the counter, press Button c, and the shopkeeper will ask you what you want. Buy: When buying, use the D-Button to highlight your choice, and press Button A or C to select it. The shopkeeper will give you the price. Press the D-Button to highlight YES, then select the character who will receive the item by highlighting his or her name and pressing Button A or C. You can refuse a purchase by either selecting NO and pressing Button A or C, or by pressing Button B at any time. NOTE: If the character can't use a weapon, the shopkeeper will ask you if you want to buy the item anyway. Don't buy an item you can't use unless you're going to transfer it to another character. Sell: When selling an item, highlight the character who has the item you want to sell and press Button A or C. Next, highlight the item you wish to sell. The shopkeeper will give you a price. If the price is right, highlight YES and press Button A or C to make the sale. Refuse a sale by selecting NO or pressing Button B. Repair: If you want an item repaired, highlight the character who has the damaged item and press Button A or C. Next, select the item with the D-Button and press Button A or C again. Deals: If you want to know what the special items on sale are, select this option. If any special items are available, you can buy them as you would other items. Caravan Options: You will undoubtedly run across an odd fellow named Dr. Rohde in your travels. Rohde has spent his life studying books that explain about a special magic called "mechanics." Eventually you'll come across an ancient machine called a Caravan, and if anyone can get it working again, Rohde's your man. And what good is the Caravan to you? Read on! To use the Caravan, just move the Leader over it and press Button C. The following options appear: Join: This command allows you to replace members on the excursion team with others who are waiting inside the Caravan. Press Button A or C to see the stand-by troops. Highlight the person who'll join and press Button A or C. Highlight the character they'll change places with and press Button A or C again to exchange members. Cancel by pressing Button B. Item: The item option here is the same one as described under Walkabout Options. Purge: Use this to place members of your party in the Caravan when they're not needed. Highlight the character you want to have wait in the Caravan and press Button A or C. NOTE: You can place as many characters in the Caravan as you want to (except the Leader), but keep in mind that having too few characters in your battle party may be more dangerous than having too many. Depot Options: The Caravan has a large cargo area which you can use to store up items you may use later but don't want to carry now. Special use items, unusual weapons and even extra healing herbs can all be stored in the caravan and taken out at any time. Look: This allows you to appraise any item stored in the Caravan. Highlight an item and press Button A or C. Astral then explains what type of item it is, how and where it's used, and the price it fetches in a shop. Derive: This allows you to pick an item from the Caravan and pass it to a character. Highlight the item and press Button A or C, then select the character you'll pass it to the same way. Drop: This is the same as the drop command described in the Item Options. Deposit: This places an item into the Caravan's cargo hold. Highlight the character carrying the item you want to store, then highlight the item and press Button A or C. Abbey Options: In every town you travel to, there are priests who can help you in a number of ways. If the priest asks you questions, answer by pressing the D-Button to highlight YES or NO and pressing Button A or C. Select characters to be promoted by highlighting their name in the Character List and pressing Button A or C. Save: This saves your game as it stands. If you're going to buy items or weapons from shops, equip your characters before you save the game, to save time later. Raise: If one or more of your characters fall in battle, you can restore them to full health by returning to the nearest abbey and asking the priest to raise them from the dead. Promote: Once a character achieves level twenty or higher, you can promote that character to a new fighting class, which enables the character to use more powerful weapons or spells. Cure: Some enemies can infect your characters with diseases or poisons. Unless one of your spellcasters knows the right spells or someone is carrying the right medicines, you'll need to get that character back to the priest quickly. Otherwise you'll need a Raise instead of a Cure! NOTE: Raising and curing characters is done in exchange for a donation, and the easiest way to avoid this drain on the money pouch is to protect your characters! Don't put them in dangerous situations until you're sure they have the necessary experience to defeat the enemy. Combat Options: The dark forces are growing stronger and the hand of Chaos is giving the creatures of the night free reign to attack with ever growing ferocity. In plain terms, things are going from bad to worse. Not only do you have to worry about finding a way to lock Zeon back in his dimension, but also how not to be destroyed by his evil minions beforehand. Every canyon, forest and river may hold another band of evil creatures waiting for you. When a battle begins, the first thing you must do is find out the numbers and strength of your opponents. Use the Special Game Options to check out your situation before you plan your strategy. Once the battle starts, your characters will probably be in a group, near one corner of the battle area. Once a character can move (characters move in order, the fastest character first and the slowest character last), his or her window appears at the top right of the screen, and the effect the terrain has on their movement appears in a window at the top left of the screen. The character will be able to move only as far as the flashing ground area extends, and can only move onto a space that isn't occupied by another character. Move your character using the D-Button. When you have picked the place you want to stop at, press Button A or C. If you reconsider and want to move your character again, press Button B and move your character to the new position. Once you decide where your character is to stop, press Button A or C to see your Combat options. If your character is close enough to the enemy to attack, the highlighter will appear on the Attack option, and if the enemy is outside the character's striking range, the highlighter will appear on the Stay option. Move the highlighter to the option you want and press Button A or C. Attack: Pick this option to begin your attack on an opponent (if one is in striking distance). A flashing grid of squares will appear, showing you the character's striking distance. If more than one enemy is in striking distance, use the D-Button to move the white brackets to the enemy you wish to attack and press Button A or C. The Battle screen appears next. The Stats window for your character appears above him or her, and your opponent's Stats window appears below. The damage your character inflicts on the enemy shows on the enemy's HP (Hit Points) meter. Item: If you want to utilize an item you are carrying, select this. Items options are the same here as in the other sections, except that you can only give an item to a character standing next to you. Stay: This option stops your character where he or she is, and ends his or her turn. Magic: If your character knows any spells, select this to cast a spell on a teammate or enemy. Special Game Options: During battle situations, another set of options become available. To access these options, press Button B any time it's one of your characters' turn to move. A white highlighter box will appear around the character. * Move the box to any character on the battlefield (including enemies) and press Button A to open the highlighted character's complete status sheet. * Press Button C to see the highlighted character's status window. This can be useful when you're up against an enemy you've never seen before. Press Button B to return to the character who is supposed to move. Move the white brackets to a place on the battlefield that isn't occupied by any character and press Button A or C to bring up the following Options: Map: Select this to see a small map of the entire battlefield, displaying the location of your team (in green) and all enemies (in red). Member: This brings up the statistics charts for the members of the Shining Force. Quit: Select this to quit the game. If you're sure you want to quit, press the D-Button to highlight YES and press Button A or C. Your game will automatically be saved at that point. Speed: This option allows you to alter the speed of all messages. Change the speed of the text by moving the arrow with the D-Button. One is the slowest speed and four is the fastest. You can also turn off the text which describes each hit and the amount of coins acquired when a foe is defeated. Level-ups, experience points and special items you find are still displayed in messages. Shining Force II Tools of the Trade Use Up/Down to scroll text Tools of the Trade: Rune is a fantastic land of magic and technology, where you'll battle with spells and missiles, lances and lasers. You can sometimes acquire weapons from foes you defeat in battle but can't pick them up if your hands are full, so try not to load up all your characters fully. For the listings below, the name of the weapon will be listed first, who can use the weapon will be listed next, and last will be the attack power of the item. Arrows: Wooden Arrow ACHR, RNGR, BWKT, SNIP, BRGR +5 Iron Arrow ACHR, RNGR, BWKT, SNIP, BRGR +7 Steel Arrow ACHR, RNGR, BWKT, SNIP, BRGR +12 Robin Arrow ACHR, RNGR, BWKT, SNIP, BRGR +17 Spears and Lances: Wooden Spear KNTE, PLDN, PGKT +3 Short Spear KNTE, PLDN, PGKT +6 Bronze Lance KNTE, PLDN, PGKT +9 Spear KNTE, PLDN, PGKT +12 Steel Lance KNTE, PLDN, PGKT +16 Power Spear KNTE, PLDN, PGKT +20 Axes: Short Axe WARR, RDBN +5 Hand Axe WARR, RDBN +9 Middle Axe WARR, RDBN +13 Power Axe WARR, RDBN +17 Battle Axe WARR, RDBN +21 Rods and Magical Weapons: Wooden Rod PRST, MAGE, SRCR, WZRD +3 Short Rod PRST, MAGE, SRCR, WZRD +5 Bronze Rod PRST, MAGE, SRCR, WZRD +8 Iron Rod PRST, MAGE, SRCR, WZRD +12 Power Stick PRST, MAGE, SRCR, WZRD +18 Knives and Ninja Blades: Short Knife THIF +5 Dagger THIF +8 Knife THIF +12 Thief's Dagger THIF +17 Swords: Wooden Sword SDMN, BDMN, RDBN, HERO, BDBT, NINJ +3 Short Sword SDMN, BDMN, RDBN, HERO, BDBT, NINJ +5 Middle Sword SDMN, BDMN, RDBN, HERO, BDBT, NINJ +8 Long Sword SDMN, BDMN, RDBN, HERO, BDBT, NINJ +12 Steel Sword SDMN, BDMN, RDBN, HERO, BDBT, NINJ +16 Achilles Sword HERO +19 Hand to Hand: Leather Ring MRMK +26 Power Glove MRMK +33 Brass Knuckles MRMK +39 Iron Knuckles MRMK +43 Shining Force II Items Use Up/Down to scroll text Items: There are a large number of items which you'll come across in your journeys. You'll find some in treasure chests, some on the battlefield; others in shops in the towns and villages you visit. Edible Items: Usually found in treasure chests, these goodies increase the power, speed or magic ability of the character who uses them. Medical Herb: This inexpensive item can be bought in any shop in Rune. It restores 10 HP to a character when he or she uses it. Antidote: The leaves of this plant dissolve poisons in the blood. With the number of zombies and other undead creatures roaming around, you'll need this item at some point. Healing Seed, Healing Drop: More expensive than the Medical Herb, these powerful potions restore a large number of HPs to a character when he/she uses them. Angel Wing: This magic item allows the user to return to the town he or she was last in. Usually the Leader of the Shining Force uses the Egress spell to take the group out of danger, but there may be times when this isn't possible. Rings: Throughout the game, you will run across rings with various uses. Let various characters try them on to see what their effects are. Shining Force II Spells Use Up/Down to scroll text Spells: At the start of your journey, your spellcasters only know spells that can hit one opponent at a time, but as their abilities improve, they'll be able to blast a number of opponents with one spell! Below is a list of some spells each type of spellcaster can use: Attack Spells: Blaze: A hail of fire rains down on the opponent(s). This spell is particularly useful against the undead. Freeze: This spell creates a whirlwind of ice in the air around the opponent(s), bringing the temperature in that area down to incredibly low levels. Blast: This spell accosts the opponent(s) with lightning and whirling winds. Bolt: Energy is channeled from the earth and through the spellcaster, who acts as a rod. The energy is then released as electricity, causing the enemy great damage. Muddle: Creates a wall of fog around the opponent. Desoul: This spell invokes one of the Ancient Gods of Death to come and pull the soul from the opponent. This dark spell can only be attempted by the highest level of spellcaster, as the thought of the spell backfiring is too much for the weak-of-heart. Sleep: This spell lulls your opponent(s) into a sound sleep, rendering them immobile until they wake up-if they wake up. Slow: This spell slows your enemies down considerably, giving your team more time to attack. Defensive Spells: Egress: This spell is reserved for the Leader of the Shining Force. If you find yourself in trouble, use Egress to transport you and your team back to the last safe place the game was saved at--usually an abbey. Heal: The Heal spell restores some of a character's Hps. Carrying around restorative potions and herbs is fine, but if you're out in the open for a long period of time, you're bound to run out eventually... Detox: Any character who has been poisoned by an enemy can be cured by this spell. Aura: This powerful heal spell restores HPs to all characters within the caster's zone of influence. Dispel: More like a spell absorber, dispel prevents any spell cast by the enemy from taking effect. Used at the right times, this spell can be devastating against powerful spellcasting enemies. Quick: This spell increases the speed of your team. Boost: This spell increases the recipient's attack power, speed and agility for a short time. Shining Force II Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Final Advice From Astral: * If you don't talk to characters you meet in towns and traveling around, you may miss a valuable opportunity to gain new members. You can get other news and information about your quest as well! Talk, talk, talk! * Bear in mind that all members have their own strengths and weaknesses, such as moving speed or the ability to do well against certain opponents. Keep your warriors fairly close together to avoid having anyone singled out and surrounded, but be aware that this makes your group vulnerable to magic attack. Try to keep your Leader and weaker members of the group protected as much as possible. * Jumping into battle recklessly is not the mark of a great Leader. To defeat your enemy, you must first know what they can do. Use the Special Game option "Member" to look at your opponent's Stats sheets and find out where the strongest warriors are. Then use that information to plan your attack. * Pay attention to the characteristics of each battlefield. Your enemies will try to use the different types of terrain to their advantage. You should too. * Once a character reaches level 20, he or she can be promoted to a new fighting class. Once that character has been promoted, he or she will increase in HP, Speed and Attack strength, and be able to use stronger, more advanced weapons than before. On the other hand, the character may lose previously learned spells, or lose some Hps. Keep a few members of your team (such as Knights and Archers) in reserve, and promote spellcasters and the Leader as early as possible. * A lot of characters will join you on your mission, but as the team Leader, you know that only eleven warriors can accompany you in battle. Don't overlook a member just because he or she is new, and don't keep other members just because you're used to them. Your team knows as well as you do that only with the best warriors do you stand a chance of defeating Zeon. * Be prepared to fight to the finish if there's no escape, but remember that if the Leader is defeated, it doesn't matter if there's only one monster left or twenty--you'll have to start back at the beginning of that battle. When things look hopeless, a fool keeps fighting and a wise warrior retreats, rethinks and tries again. * Each member of the Shining Force has his or her own walking or flying speeds, so you'll find that some members soon outdistance others. Remember though, that your goal isn't reached with speed, but with careful planning and knowledge of your team's strong and weak points. * When you get to the battle with the nasty sea serpent (Kraken), go for the head by using your airborne characters. Then taunt the head toward the dock. Try to stay out of fights with his arms and legs. To get to a secret configuration mode: At the Sega logo, very quickly enter the following: UP, DOWN, UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, UP, RIGHT, DOWN, LEFT, UP AND B. Hold Start until the witch says "Configuration". You can choose from Turbo, Auto Battle, Control Enemies, and Complete Game.

Sonic the Hedgehog Special Zone Use Up/Down to scroll text If you collect a certain amount of Rings, you can warp to the Secret Zone where you'll ricochet off multi-colored blocks in a 360 degree rotating maze!

Reverse: When you touch this, the maze will rotate the opposite way. Goal: Touch this to return to the previous zone. 1 Up: Touch this for an extra life. Jump Stand: Jump off these.

But sometimes, just to show off, Sonic explodes in a burst of super speed and leaves him behind. But Miles doesn't give up. He whirls his tails like a helicopter rotor and takes off flying until he catches up! All the animals call Miles by his nickname, "Tails," because of his 2 special tails. And one day they saw an astonishing feat . . . They were all together in the forest, watching Sonic perform. Sonic would run, spin and jump in his Super Spin Attack.

Hold the D-Pad DOWN and press the A, B or C button multiple times. When you release the D-Pad, Sonic or Tails will shoot forward. Tails To The Rescue: While playing a one-player game with Sonic and Tails together, use the second controller to control Tails. Use Tails to airlift Sonic out of danger or to areas which are unreachable by Sonic alone. Insta-Shield: Quickly press the A, B or C button twice and you'll generate enough energy for Sonic to be protected by a shield for a split second. Make Tails Fly or Swim: Quickly press the A, B or C button twice, while playing as Tails, and he'll fly or swim (for a limited time) if it is necessary. Two Player Mode: Get ready for the new and improved two-player action in Sonic The Hedgehog 3. Even if you've mastered this game's six one-player Zones, in two-player, split-screen mode there are five totally unique Zones, and three different game play modes. Two-Player Game Play Modes Grand Prix Mode: Experience all five of the two-player Zones as you compete against a second player and race against time. Match Race: It's a race against time as you compete against a second player in any one of the two-player Zones that you select.

Your goal is to move as quickly as possible. Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Power-Ups Use Up/Down to scroll text Sonic Power-Ups: Super Ring: This power-up monitor is worth ten (10) Gold Rings. Invincibility: No badniks can harm Sonic when he activates this icon and becomes invincible for a short time. Some moving objects are still harmful, so be careful. Flame Shield: Protects Sonic and Tails from a fire attack. When this shield is activated, Sonic can perform a mid-air "Fireball Spin Dash" by leaping into the air and pressing the A, B or C button. Water Shield: Sonic and Tails can breathe underwater and bounce like a ball. Sonic can also defeat most Badniks by bouncing on their heads when he is surrounded by the Water Shield bubble. Lightning Shield: When activated, Gold Rings will gravitate towards Sonic or Tails. This shield will also protect Sonic and Tails from electric attacks and energy ball attacks from Badniks. While this shield is active, Sonic can double jump in mid-air (quickly press the A, B or C button twice). 1-Up: This power-up contains Sonic or Tail's picture and is worth one extra life. Robotnik: Danger! Activating this power-down icon causes the same amount of damage to Sonic or Tails as an attack from a Badnik. Sonic or Tails will either lose their Gold Rings, or without Gold Rings, lose a life. The Special Stage: Within every Act, you'll discover at least one hidden room containing a giant Gold Ring. When Sonic or Tails leaps into the ring, they'll teleport into the Special Stage. Use the D-Pad to dodge the red energy spheres and grab the blue ones. When the blue spheres transform into Gold Rings, grab them! To make Gold Rings appear, look for square formations of blue spheres, then grab the spheres along the outer edge of the square. All of the blue spheres that make up the square will turn into Gold Rings. White Star Spheres are bumpers which Sonic and Tails bounce off of. Press the A, B or C button to jump up. Once you've collected all of the blue spheres, a Chaos Emerald will appear. The Bonus Stage's Gumball Machine: Grab extra 1-Ups, bonus power-ups, and Gold Rings by turning the crank of this special Gumball Machine. To find this Bonus Stage, collect 50 or more Gold Rings during a single Act, activate a Starpost and then leap into the tiny stars that appear. The Bonus Stage's Power-Ups: Barrier Shield: Grab a "B" gumball and Sonic or Tails will be rewarded with a random type of shield. Spring Barrier: Each time Sonic or Tails bounces off the catapults below the Gumball Machine, they disappear. Grabbing a "REP" gumball will replace the catapults. When Sonic or Tails falls past the catapults, they'll automatically exit the Bonus Stage. Super Ring: These gumballs are worth 10 Gold Rings. 1-Up: Earn an extra life. Bumper Gumballs: Bounce off of these gumballs. Clear Gumballs: The joke is on you! Nothing happens if Sonic or Tails grabs a clear gumball in The Bonus Stage. Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Grab Gold Rings. They will provide protection from Badniks and obstacles, help you earn extra lives and enter The Bonus Stage. When Sonic loses the Gold Rings he's holding, quickly help him re-grab as many of them as possible. Earning 100 Gold Rings will earn you one extra life. Having 50 Gold Rings when you activate a Starpost allows Sonic to enter the Bonus Stage. Always be on the lookout for hidden rooms and passageways. Look for different patterns in the walls. Sonic can smash open some solid walls by performing a Spin Dash Attack. You can also use this move to smash open rock formations. Beware of Badniks that shoot energy weapons. Even if you keep your distance from the Badnik, their weapon can reach you and cause you to lose a life. If you must get past a series of Badniks, spend a few moments watching them and learn how they move. Be sure to time your attack perfectly. Don't forget in Sonic the Hedgehog 3, Tails has the ability to help Sonic. When caught in a difficult situation, use Controller 2 to take control of Tails. Press the A, B or C button twice (on Controller 2) to make Tails fly. Always look for ways to improve your point score. Defeating Badniks, collecting Gold Rings and getting through each Act as quickly as possible (for a Time Bonus) are all excellent ways to boost your score. Prepare yourself to travel underwater in the various Zones. Remember, Sonic can't last too long underwater without breathing, so jump into giant air bubbles that rise from the ground. If you wait too long, Sonic will drown (lose a life). Activating a Water Shield allows Sonic to breathe underwater until the shield breaks. Learn to use Sonic's new power-up moves and shields. They will prove to be extremely valuable as you help Sonic and Tails trek across The Floating Island in search of Dr. Robotnik. Use Sonic's Spin Dash Attack to climb up steep hills. When an Act's end level marker appears, leap towards it before it lands and an extra power-up might appear. In the IceCap Zone and throughout the game, avoid having Tails get stuck in passageways or get caught in traps. Have Tails activate Starposts or enter into a Special Stage as quickly as possible. Dr. Robotnik has created many diabolical traps which take advantage of Sonic's ultra-fast speed. Watch out for traps that Sonic cannot escape. If you fall into the wrong trap, you might have to reset the game (by pressing the RESET button) and start again at the beginning of the Zone you were last in. When Sonic is flashing (after being hit) don't let him travel too quickly.

CLIFFHANGER FLIP: * Sonic will automatically grab ledges and flip up onto a safe surface to prevent fatal falls or avoid the jaws of Robotnik's monsters. Sonic Spinball Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Your mission is to attack the Veg-O-Fortress, fight upward through the Pinball Defense System and annihilate Dr. Robotnik's evil machine. Destroy the underling bosses and boss machines to move up through the levels. Along the way, use your best pinball wizardry to free the robotized inhabitants of Mobius! Chaos Emeralds stabilize the Mt. Mobius volcano on which the Veg-O-Fortress stands. Without the Emeralds, a massive eruption would blow the Fortress to pieces! You must spin, bounce and bump through the Pinball Machines to snatch all the Chaos Emeralds on each of four levels. When you've collected all the Emeralds, the Veg-O-Fortress will explode! The Pinball Defense System is a gigantic Pinball Machine. In it, you'll find a universe of whirling, flashing, buzzing pinball games. Use the flippers to aim Sonic and fire him up through the volcano. When he's in flight, you can move him left and right with the D-Pad for better position when he hits a bumper or target, or when he's falling back toward the drain bumpers or flippers. Sonic Spinball Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Launch Sonic by tilting both flippers together with Button C. This is a safe, easy tactic for beginners. * Watch for lights and arrows leading toward important spots in the background. * Catch Sonic on the flippers by holding them up just as Sonic moves into the Alley Ramp. Then you can aim him with better accuracy. * To shoot Sonic straight up, fire when he is near the hinge of a flipper. To launch him at an angle, let him roll toward the tip, then fire. * You will propel Sonic with steam valves instead of flippers in some places. * If Sonic falls into the drain, it could be the end unless you take quick action. Robotnik has a gruesome surprise planted under the flippers. * Remember, you can control Sonic's travel with the D-Pad. You can slow his roll in an alley or curve him slightly toward a flipper when falling and jumping. * Every 20,000,000 points Sonic gains a well earned extra ball. * Watch the Status Strip (at the top of the screen) for the number of Emeralds you must collect. It also tells you what obstacle you need to hit in order to open a path to a Chaos Emerald.

Space Invaders '91 Taito To return to Now Playing, reset your adapter. GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME ITEMS AND STUFF BROWSE HELP FILES Space Invaders '91 Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text Fearful invaders have suddenly appeared on our peaceful planet. They are a new type of invader who are not even listed in studies by international information bureaus. The attacking invaders rely on incredible speed and dizzying attack patterns. What's more, the battlefield extends from the Earth to the Milky Way and on to the outer reaches of the universe. Can you endure the fierce onslaught of these invaders? Now it's time to load your spaceship with attack and defense items, and use your bravery and wits to meet the challenge. Take off bravely to adventure! Space Invaders '91 Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text The only thing you can trust in the unknown reaches of the universe is your own wits and bravery. And the source of that bravery is the ability to operate skillfully. Master the functions of the individual buttons on the controller and you'll have nothing to fear. While viewing the screen, see how quickly and accurately you can maneuver your spaceship for offensive and defensive actions. D-Pad: * Use to move the player craft to the left and right. Start Button: * Use to start the game. Also pauses the game while in action. A Button: * A beam emission button lets you blow your enemy to smithereens if you know how to use it. B Button: * Use to obtain special items and increase your offensive power. C Button: * Use it like the A Button for standard offensives. Space Invaders '91 Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Taking off for the unknown universe Your mission is to protect the Earth from the nearly invincible invaders. Each time you destroy an invader you must face even stronger enemies (rounds). The scene of battle progresses from the Earth to the ends of the universe in a game filled with spectacles and thrills. Once you destroy the invaders that appear all over the screen and repeat this a second time, the first round ends and you advance to the second battle (round). To avoid Invader attacks, you manipulate the Direction Button to move your player spaceship. If the player spaceship receives more attacks than the remaining number of shields, your number of spaceships decreases by one. The game is over when you are totally out of spaceships. A single player spaceship has a maximum value of 10 shields. The value at Start time is 5. The number of shields increases by 2 each time you acquire an item. You can obtain powerful items by destroying UFO's. Each time you obtain a recover shield you strengthen your defensive shield. Viewing the screen The top part of the screen shows your score, and the high score. The bottom part of the screen shows the number of shields you have remaining, how many more spaceships (lives) you have, and it shows the item you are currently using. Special weapons and forming scrimmages To meet the attack of the incredibly strong Invaders, you can't simply rely on conventional beams. If you combine the special items (see the description in the Items section) with scrimmages, you're ready for anything! There is no one in the universe who can defeat you. These are all special weapon items with tremendous power. They greatly increase your offensive and defensive strength. Rundown of items * By combining the items obtained by beaming and destroying UFO's with your player spaceship, it is possible to obtain these various items. * It is not possible to use the item in the following round (although it is possible with Recover Shield). However, it is possible to use the item in the next scene of the same round. * When a player spaceship is destroyed, you lose the effectiveness of the items it was using. * There are usage limits for the items. The limits are expressed in the amount of remaining energy, time and number of uses. * When you use a standard beam to destroy a UFO while holding an item, another item may appear. When this happens, the item you previously held loses it's effectiveness and you can use the power of the newly acquired item. Try to get bonus points! * Rainbow Bonus: When you finally reduce to one the number of Invaders appearing at the lowest level of the screen, it starts to move while creating an afterimage. This is known as a "Rainbow Phenomenon" and there is a chance at this time to gain bonus points. When the enemy is in the capsule, you get 100 points for each afterimage that is left. When the enemy is not in the capsule, you get 50 points for each afterimage that is left. * Perfect Bonus: If you clear one scene with a number of shots equal to the number of appearing Invaders (i.e. 55 shots for 55 units), you receive an extra 10,000 points. * Crags: If you succeed in shooting down with 3 shots the crags that appear in rounds 6 and 16, you receive and extra 3,000 points for each crag. * Special Bonus: When there is only one special capsule left, something good will happen! * Item Bonus: You receive an additional 1,000 points each time you obtain an item. * Resupply of shields: If you score a hit on the direct center of the group of Invaders at the start of a round, the number of your shields returns to the full amount. * 1-Up conditions: Each time you achieve the following scores, the total number of your player spaceships increases by one. 1st time: 30,000 points 2nd time: 60,000 points 3rd time: 120,000 points 4th time: 240,000 points NOTE: The number of remaining spaceships does not increase beyond the fourth time. Game Continue When Next Mission appears on the screen select OK when you want to continue playing and then press the Start Button. * Continue is based on the number of repetitions. * It is possible to continue up to three times. * It is possible to increase the number of Continue times by destroying the Special Capsule that is a special item. Space Invaders '91 Items and Stuff Use Up/Down to scroll text Offensive Items: * Hyper Laser (H-LASER): When a laser hits a single Invader, it causes an explosion on both sides which creates an explosion wave on an entire horizontal line. Can be used a maximum of two times. * Homing Bomb (H-BOMB): A fireball hits an enemy on "Lock-On." Possible to shoot a maximum of 20 times. * Buster Laser (B-LASER): Emits a long-distance laser directly upward from the player spaceship. Effective until the energy runs out. * Power Beam (P-BEAM): By storing up beam energy and using it for attacks, it is possible to shoot the beam over a wide area. If you are attacked while storing energy, the energy decreases and you are unable to emit a beam. It is only possible to store energy while the B Button is depressed. Energy is emitted when the button is released. * Super Crusher (S-CRUSHER): Two options appear beside the player spaceship so that it looks like there are three spaceships making triple attacks. It is available for only 15 seconds. Defensive Items: * Speed Up (SPEED-UP): The speed of the player spaceship is increased to double the normal speed. Effective until the player spaceship is destroyed. * Recover Shield (RECOVER-S): An addition of two to the present remaining energy of the shield. * Time Stop (T-STOP): Completely stops the movement of invaders for a total of 10 seconds. * Hyper Shields (H-SHIELD): A shield appears for 20 seconds and it is impossible during that period for the enemy to inflict damage (although this does not defend you against enemy homing devices and lasers). * Psychic Shield (PSYCHIC-S): An improved version of the Hyper Shield. Appears for 20 seconds during which time you are invincible.

But thanks to the courage of Sparkster, leader of the elite fighting force known as "The Rocket Knights," the vicious imperial army was destroyed. For a time, it looked as though Zebulos would find peace once again. But alas, it was not to be. All the lands of Elhorn were again engulfed in war. In every region of Elhorn, tribes formerly held in the evil grip of the Devotindos Empire turned violent. From this mass confusion there arose the evil empire of "Gedol." The Gedol empire soon swelled, using every evil means available to take control of every region of Elhorn. The King of Gedol then learned of the existence of Sparkster.

But, this was not to be its last fight. Reorganized with mega amounts of devastating military electronics and weapons, the renegade troops have once again focused their sights on dominating the free world. From a secret power base in the East, they unleash their deadly troops who will take to land, sea and air powerfully armed. But so are you. From the cockpit of this remodified bird, you've got a state-of-the-art defense system at your fingertips. An aerodynamically designed alloy body flies up to 523 kph while a 20 mm Gatling Gun fires up to 4,800 shots a minute. A computer-aided flight system takes you through even the most hostile environments. Don't worry, you're firing cannons and dropping air-to-surface AATM missiles from your skids, so there's no stopping you and the greatest chopper in the sky. Your objective is to blow the central enemy base sky high. But getting there is easier said than done. There are four stages to this game where you'll encounter cities, deserts, caves, oceans and refineries. The strategy is easy, shoot straight, be brave and just maybe you'll get your wings out of this mission. The free world as we know it, depends on you.

The city's a war zone, and they're going out two at a time to give the gangs a kick in the guts. This is the ultimate in street combat. These city fighters are martial arts maniacs with a battery of 40 individually controllable attacks -- including jabs, head butts, and overhead kicks. They're up against a mob of Kung-Fu creeps and axe-hurling fiends. On the streets it's only two of them against hordes of attacking scum. Slam into pipe-wielding weirdos and bash 'em with their own metal. Throw an uppercut or an elbow smash -- these goons keep comin'. Streets of Rage Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text D-Button: * Press to move Adam, Axel, or Blaze in any direction. * Press, along with the Jump button, to control the direction of your fighter's jumps. * Press to move the marker on decision screens. Start Button: * Press to start the game. * Press to pause the action; press again to resume play. Buttons A, B and C: * The functions of these buttons can be set at the Options screen. One button is used to Attack, another to Jump and the third to call for help. Streets of Rage Attack Techniques Use Up/Down to scroll text All three of our heroes are accomplished veterans of hand-to-hand combat. Use the D-Button to move your fighter into range and press the Attack button to clobber the enemies. The former peace officers have various abilities they can employ. Regular Attack: * Adam: Jab * Axel: Power Jab * Blaze: Horizontal Chop The following attack methods inflict more damage on the enemies than a regular attack. Timing and position are crucial! Flurry: * Adam: 2 Jabs, an Uppercut, and a Kick to the chest. * Axel: 2 Power Jabs, a Body Punch and a Knee Slam. * Blaze: 2 Horizontal Chops and 2 Kicks to the abdomen, with a Back Flip following the second kick. Jump Kick: * Adam: Flying Snap Kick * Axel: Flying Knee Slam * Blaze: 360 degree Reverse Kick Rear Attack (Attack/Jump Buttons simultaneously): * Adam: Jumping reverse kick * Axel: Backward fist smash * Blaze: Standing snap kick Move your fighter close enough to an enemy to grab hold of him/her, and perform one of the following maneuvers: Fury: * Adam: 2 straight Knee Slams followed by an Elbow Smash * Axel: 2 Knee Slams followed by a Head Slam * Blaze: 2 Knee Slams and a Kick with a Back Flip Throw: * Adam: Shoulder Throw * Axel: Shoulder Throw * Blaze: Overhead Throw Backdrop: Grab an enemy from behind and press the Attack button. This move inflicts major damage on all enemies! Vault: Jump over an enemy by grabbing his/her shoulders and pressing the Jump button. Follow this up with a Backdrop or other attack maneuver! Double Leg Kick: If your fighter is grabbed from behind, press the Jump button to kick any enemy directly in front of you. In the two-player mode, this is a great team tactic! Neck Throw: After several Double Leg Kick attempts, press the Attack button just as your fighter's feet touch down. Your fighter hurls the enemy to the pavement. If your timing isn't just right, you'll be open to counterattack! Landing: Enemies can occasionally execute a throw, with your fighter as the projectile! As you're thrown, press the D-Button up while pressing the Jump button. Again, your success depends solely on your timing. A safe landing on two feet eliminates the risk of damage! The following maneuvers are used in two-player games: Team Tactic #1: Move your fighter to face his/her partner. Then grab your partner, press the D-Button away from your partner, and press the Attack button. Your partner somersaults into the enemy and does considerable damage (if your timing and position are correct). This can be combined with a Vault to form a dazzling attack move! Team Tactic #2: Let your partner do the same with you! This time, your fighter becomes airborne. As with #1, timing and position are the keys to success. Weapons: You will come across several different types of weapons as you play. To pick one up, move your fighter over it and press the Attack button. Press the Attack button again to use the weapon. The attack style differs depending on the weapon, so make sure you're in the proper position for your assault. A missed attack may leave you vulnerable to a counterattack! If you find yourself nearing the end, or hopelessly outnumbered, there's still one good guy left on the force. Press the Special Attack button and he launches a blast that damages all enemies in the area. The Special Attack function can be used once per round, unless you find a Special Attack item during play. Streets of Rage Item Descriptions Use Up/Down to scroll text As you fight the evil hordes, you come across Items that can help you to make progress. The Items can be found inside boxes, vent shafts, garbage cans, or even telephone booths. Press the Attack button to destroy the receptacle. If you find an Item, move your fighter over it and press the Attack button. * Apple: Gives your fighter a little burst of energy. * Beef: Completely fills your warrior's Life Gauge! * 1UP: Gives you an extra player to continue the fight against evil! * Special: Provides you with one more Special Attack! * Cash Bag: Adds 1,000 points to your score. * Gold Bars: Gives you a 5,000 point bonus! Streets of Rage Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Don't risk damage to your fighter in order to pick up an Item. Clear the immediate area first, then grab the goodie! * Once you've learned to recognize the different weapons, pick up only the ones you feel most comfortable with. Remember, even without a weapon, all three fighters can do serious damage! * When playing a two-player game, make good use of the various team techniques. You stand a much better chance of toppling the organization when you work together!

Choose your fighters and one of the game backgrounds, and have at it! Choose "Duel" from the Game Select screen and press Start or Button C to bring up the Player Select screen. Each player chooses a fighter by using the D-Pad to place the letters "1P" and "2P" over a fighter and then pressing Start or Button C. In the duel, both players can select the same fighter (for example, Blaze vs. Blaze). The two fighters will appear in different colored clothes. Use the same method to choose your stage, and whether or not your fighters can use special attacks. At the beginning of the duel, Player 1 is on the left side of the screen, and Player 2 is on the right. The kinds of weapons available in the round you chose will be laying on the ground for either fighter to pick up and use. You can also knock a weapon from your opponent's hand and pick it up. Certain other characters might try to make things a little more interesting for you, but you won't be able to attack them. You have 99 seconds (game time) to knock out your opponent. If you run out of time, the fighter with the most energy remaining on his or her Life gauge will win. If both fighters fall at the same time, or time runs out while both fighters have the same amount of energy on their Life gauges, the duel will be declared a draw. Each time a fighter scores a victory, a star appears under his or her Life gauge. The contest ends when one fighter scores two victories. The Player Select screen then returns for you to select new fighters and a new round (or the same fighters and round). Press Button B to quit the match and return to the Game Select screen. 2 PLAYER GAMES Select "2 Player" from the Game Select screen, and you and a friend can take on the Syndicate's league of sleazoids together. Naturally, you'll be competing for the highest score, but you'll get farther if you work together. Try not to attack each other, or you'll suffer damage from your own side! SCREEN SIGNALS Use the information at the top of the screen to plan your fighting strategies and keep track of your progress. Life Gauge: When a Life gauge runs out (either yours or your enemy's), its owner falls and is defeated. Enemy Life gauges vary in length. A star above a silver Life gauge shows an enemy with twice the stamina of the average slimeball. When the silver gauge runs out, it is replaced with a yellow one. If an enemy's Life gauge is silver with two stars beneath it, he will have three times the stamina of a normal enemy. Time Remaining: You have 99 seconds (game time) to defeat all the criminal elements that attack you in each section. When you clear a section, either the scene changes or a "Go" arrow appears, and the clock restarts. If you lose a fighter in battle, the clock will also start over. If you don't clear a certain area before the timer reaches 00, the words "Time Over" appear and you lose a fighter. Your fighter receives a full Life gauge at the beginning of each new stage. ITEMS As you fight the Syndicate's evil legions, you'll come across items that can help you through battle. These items are hidden inside various containers: garbage cans, furniture, crates and boxes, oil drums, roadblocks, "alien eggs", piles of sandbags-even arcade machines! Attack a container to destroy it, then pick up the item by moving over it and pressing Button B. Apples restore a bit of energy to your fighter's Life gauge. Roast Chicken completely fills your fighter's Life gauge! 1 UP's give you an extra fighter. Cash Bags add 1000 points to your score. Gold Bars give you a 5000 point bonus! WEAPONS You'll find weapons in the same containers as the items; lying on the ground or in the hands of an enemy. A quick assault will force your enemy to drop his or her weapon. You can then pick it up by moving your fighter over it and pressing Button B. Press Button B to use the weapon, or press Buttons B and C together to throw it (this takes some practice). Some of the weapons you will find are a knife, a lead pipe, a katana, the kunai, and bombs. Weapons can be knocked out of your hands if you're not careful. You can also drop them when you grab an enemy for a close assault. After you drop a weapon two or three times, it disappears. You lose the weapon you're carrying when you proceed to the next scene.

Find another way to get him behind an enemy for these attacks: German Suplex, press Button B; a back-breaking Atomic Drop, press Button B and then Button C. Skate: Neck throw. Get Skate behind an enemy and press Button B for a head-pounding migraine. SPECIAL ATTACKS You can use Special Attacks as often as you want. However, each Special Attack drains your fighter's Life gauge. A stationary Special Attack only drains the Life gauge if your fighter makes contact with an enemy. A directed Special Attack drains your fighter's Life gauge every time you use it. If your Life gauge gets too low, you won't be able to use the Special Attacks. Stationary Attack: Button A. Axel: Dragon wing. Blaze: Embukyaku. Max: Knuckle bomb. Skate: Double spin kick. Directed Attack: Button B+Button A. Axel: Dragon smash. Blaze: Kikousho. Max: Thunder tackle. Skate: Corkscrew kick. Streets of Rage 2 Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Grab items as soon as you can to collect additional points and stamina before the end of each scene. * Stay away from the sides of the screen. Enemies love to lurk there, where you can't see their moves. Lure your opponents out where you can see them. * Go for the thug with the weapon first-he can do the most damage, especially when your back is turned! * Some fighters are better with certain weapons than others. Experiment! If your fighter is not good with a certain weapon, ignore it, or throw it out of your opponent's reach. * If you're carrying a weapon you want to keep using, avoid standing over any other weapons laying about-instead of attacking, you'll wind up juggling weapons! * Watch the shadows on the ground for advance warning of enemies dropping in on you!

He's lying low, using a legitimate research company, RoboCy Corporation, as both a front for the Syndicate's business activities and the basis of his latest plan. He has brought in one of the world's most brilliant and eccentric roboticists--Dr. Dahm--to create lifelike robots to replace key city officials. When the replacements are completed, Mr. X can run the entire city by remote control. The Syndicate is using strategically placed bombs to divert the attention of the city police while Mr. X deals with the city leaders, one by one. Blaze Fielding: An ex-cop who had helped overthrow Mr. X twice before, Blaze now works as a private detective. When informed by Dr. Zan that the next victim of the Syndicate's evil scheme will be her old friend, the Chief of Police, she immediately sets up a task force to go to his rescue. Dr. Zan: A former RoboCy researcher converted into a cyborg during Dr. Dahm's early experiments, Dr. Zan probes a little too deeply into corporate files and discovers what the secret research is really for. He knows the Syndicate must be stopped once and for all, but because of his criminal record he can't approach the police. So he pays a visit to Blaze's agency and enlists her help. Axel Stone: After the Syndicate was defeated the second time, Blaze's old partner from the police force moved far from the city and set up a school of martial arts. The letter he receives from Blaze brings him back to the city at top speed. Adam Hunter: Not long ago, Mr. X took out his anger on one of the three ex-cops responsible for his first defeat. Adam was kidnapped and held as bait for his friends, Axel and Blaze. Adam was rescued, and later rejoined the police force as a senior operative. He can't answer Blaze's call for assistance himself, but sends Skate instead.

Use the information at the top of the screen to plan your attacks. When your fighter's Life Gauge runs out, you lose a life. You receive a full Life Gauge at the beginning of each new Stage. Replenish your Life Gauge by grabbing items like apples and chickens. Opponent's Life Gauges vary in length. A blue Life Gauge shows an enemy with more stamina than the average thug, and when the blue Gauge runs out, it will be replaced by a yellow Life Gauge. The Strength Gauge shows the amount of strength you have available. The higher the gauge, the harder you hit. Using Special Attacks weakens you further, and you suffer more damage if you are hit while your Strength Gauge is low, so wait until you see the full gauge and an OK sign before you let your enemies have it. With every 40,000 points you score in your current life, a Star appears beneath your fighter's Life Gauge. Each Star increases the strength of your Blitz attacks. You can get up to three Stars, and each time you lose a life, you lose one Star. Items You'll find items lying on the ground or concealed in containers. Pick up an item by moving your fighter over it and pressing Button B. Apple: Restores 1/3 of your Life Gauge. 1UP: Gives you an extra life. Chicken: Fills your Life Gauge. Cash Bag: Worth 1,000 points. Gold Bars: Gives you a 5,000 point bonus!

When you pick up a weapon, a gauge appears beneath your fighter's Life Gauge. The gauge diminishes each time you use the weapon, and when gauge empties, the weapon disappears. Weapons can be knocked out of your hands as well, if you're not careful. You also lose the weapon you're carrying when you leave the scene of the battle. Using Weapons: Each fighter uses weapons differently, and some are better with certain weapons than others. Try some of the special attack moves on each and check out the results! Be aware that these attacks don't work with grenades. Basic Brawling: These attacks work for all four fighters. In addition, each fighter has a series of special moves. How many can you find? Fury: For a basic series of punches and kicks, press Button B repeatedly. Lights Out: For a single powerful punch or kick, press Button Y. Or hold Button B, then release.

Back Attack: Press Button Z, or Buttons B and C simultaneously, to deal with any goons coming up behind you. Be careful that you're not holding a weapon while doing this, or the weapon will be thrown forward. Jump Kick: Press Button C to jump. While in mid-air, press Button B to kick. Special Attacks: Few enemies can stand up to the spectacular Special Attack, but your fighter will pay for it with his or her Strength Gauge. If you perform another Special Attack before your Strength Gauge has a chance to fill, you'll drain some of your fighter's Life Gauge. Stationary Attack: Press Button A to blow them away. This is a good defensive move when your situation gets too intense. Directed Attack: While pressing the D-Button in the direction of your opponent, press Button A. Streets of Rage 3 Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Grab items as soon as you can to collect additional points and stamina before the end of each scene. * Go for the thug with the weapon first--he can do the most damage, especially when your back is turned. * If you come across a weapon you're not good at using, pick it up and throw it before it gets into the wrong hands. * Clear out crowds of thugs by tossing other Syndicate slimeballs on top of them. Better yet, toss them over the sides of elevators or into deep pits. However, avoid attempting to throw the heavy fire-breathers like Dwight, Big Ben and Ike--you'll just get squashed. * Take your time and concentrate on your enemies a few at a time. If you rush ahead, you may find yourself surrounded by more thugs than you can deal with! Instead of waiting to defeat Roo's evil trainer, Bruce, to play as Roo, you can start the game as him. At the Title Screen, press Up on the D-Pad and the B Button simultaneously. Then go to the game Start Screen and select the game you want to play. You should be able to select Roo for the normal game as well as the Battle Mode (with two players).

GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Strider Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text You must guide Strider Hiryu through 4 Stages that are filled with men, machines and monsters who are helping grand Master Meio to carry out his sinister scheme. Your goal is to reach the Third Moon, a space station where Meio waits. It is there that the final showdown will take place! Strider Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text Take Control! D-Pad: To move left, right, up, and squat Start: To pause/unpause game Button A or C: Jump Button B: Attack Special Functions Sliding Attack: D-Pad down + Button A or C Cartwheel Jump: D-Pad right or left + Button A or C. Strider Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Hiryu's Attack Techniques Hiryu normally attacks using his plasma sword, Falchion. He is very agile as well, and his Sickle helps him to climb steep walls and inclines. Here are some special techniques you can use to fend off the enemies and get closer to the final showdown with Grand Master Meio! Running Attack: Press D-Pad left or right to make Hiryu run in either direction. To attack on the run, press B repeatedly. Vertical Jump Attack: Press, simultaneously, Buttons A and B or C and B. Hiryu can go sky-high to blow away airborne pests. Squat Attack: Press the D-Pad down to let Hiryu squat. Press Button B to make him swing his vicious sabre at the enemy warriors! Sliding Attack: While pressing the D-Pad down, press A or C to make Hiryu slide into enemies. They can't survive this type of assault! Hanging Attack: Hiryu often has to hang from pipes and beams above him-press B to let him wield his plasma sword as he hangs. Climbing Attack: Even as Hiryu is climbing a wall or incline, he might be attacked. Press B to allow him to defend himself. Items As you guide Hiryu through the hordes of Meio's supporters, Item Containers appear that contain various things to help Hiryu in his journey. To get the Item, shoot at the Container. The Item inside then appears. Move in and take it! The Item Containers may be found by themselves, or in the grasp of a Flying Mosqueman! The Robots During his travels, Hiryu can pick up some help in the form of Robots. There are 3 different types of bionic fighters available. When Hiryu has suffered a substantial amount of damage, though, all types except for the Hawk Robot disappear. Dipodal Saucer: When you take this Item, one of the colored blocks in Hiryu's Life gauge turns red. If you take 2 of these Item symbols, 2 of the colored blocks in his gauge turn red. As Hiryu swings his lethal plasma sword, the robot fires electric blasts in that direction. While Hiryu is moving, the robot moves about him, charging into and destroying enemies. If the red block loses its color(after Hiryu has been hit by an enemy attack), the robot disappears. Terapodal Robo-panther: This Item only appears after 2 of the colored blocks in Hiryu's Life gauge have turned red. The Dipodal Saucers disappear, and the blocks that were red become yellow. The Robo-panther can help Hiryu for a limited time only. When that time has passed, the Dipodal Saucers reappear in place of the Robo-panther. As Hiryu is injured, the yellow block(s) turn red, and then become dark. Again, if the red block turns dark, Hiryu loses his fighting companion. Hawk Robot: This is a special Robot that does severe damage to enemies, even though it doesn't move around so much! When this Item symbol appears, the Hawk Robot is ready to help you. It circles in the air above you, and any enemy that comes in contact with it is severely wounded. The blocks in Hiryu's Life gauge don't change color, and the Hawk Robot disappears after a short time. A Global Battle Begins! Round 1-Kazafu Hang-glide into a city under siege. Scale the rooftops, battling Russian Soldiers, Scoundrels, and Mosquemen attacking from all angles. Activate your Dipodal Saucers to help destroy enemies on inclines and downslopes. Slide under deadly spikes to face Strobaya, the bonecrushing muscleman. Then leap away from the searing flames! Jump and hang! Go high! Get low! Demolish Novo, the multi-directional laser emitter. Follow the staircases, and watch out for traps and sneak attacks. Annihilate Urobolos, the terrifying metal menace, and conquer the city! Round 2-Siberia A frozen waste awaits! Siberian Wolves, crazed with hunger, attack ferociously. Keep moving to escape! Blast a hole in the portal and zip under it. The terrible, towering Mecha Pon jabs at your eyes. Slash him to metal slivers, then leap away. Creepers and Snipers assault you in the shaft and on the gear wheels. Grab Items! Swing hand over hand and up onto the platform-the only way out! Conquer the peak, but beware the chasm below. Hack through the loading dock armed with deadly electric transformers. Up high, leap aboard the Shuttle. You're almost there! Jump ship to keep moving, and clamber onto the cruiser. Wipe out the Kuniang martial arts thugs and the Captain. So far, so good! Round 3-Ballog You've just boarded Ballog. Prepare for an onslaught as you invade this massive flying fortress. The Eliminator, the monster cannon, will blast you, but its base is vulnerable. Conveyors and trap doors lead down to the Ballog's perilous substructure. Cling like a fly, and fight! Be sure to gain all Items. Deadly Frog Robots bar your way. Reduce them to molten metal! But watch out-the Ballog's hull is collapsing! Leap side to side to escape. Then, avoid the slingshot at all costs. Enter a chamber of horrors where spikes, brutal Seamen, and wall-mounted lasers lie in wait. Defy gravity in the inversion sector, and dash through the shower of ultra-sensitive grenades. Find the Ballog's secret device, then penetrate its magnetic field and slash it to shreds. Don't go down onto his Shuttle for a hand-to-hand duel to the death! Round 4-The Amazon Swelter in the hot, humid jungles of the Amazon. Get ready to jump, hang, and swing, or perish! Look out for detonating Toadstools and deadly tiger traps. When alluring Amazons approach, don't fall in love. Dodge their razor-sharp axes and killer boomerangs. Jump, duck, and slide. Do whatever it takes to get out alive! Man-eating piranha thrive in the Amazon River. Swing across and stay dry, or you'll be fish food! Decimate the Pteranodons and Triceratops, and never wait to eliminate the fiery Amazons. Climb the Brontosaurus herd to begin the final slash-out with Lago, the ominous Robot. Aim at his head and half away! Round 5-The Third Moon You've made it to the Grand Master's control station! Now go all out! Keep to the right, carefully guarding your strength and extra lives. Once in the Supreme Tower, you'll need every advantage to survive the final cataclysmic battle! Scoring You can earn points by helping Hiryu to wipe out enemy soldiers, creatures and machines. Each enemy has its own point value. You can also receive Bonus points for clearing each Stage successfully. Bonus Points Clearing Stage: 1: 5,000 points 2: 8,000 points 3: 10,000 points 4: 20,000 points 5: 30,000 points Strider Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * The most important thing you must do is to successfully figure out which way to go. It's not always easy to find your way, and straying from the path can lead you into less than pleasant situations! * You should quickly become a skilled attacker. Remember the different enemies that you'll face in each Stage, and the best way to confront them. If you aren't 100 percent confident of your ability as a fighter, you'll never get to the showdown with Grand Master Meio! * Getting through certain areas of the game is relatively simple. There are some places, however, that require great skill and patience. Remember the technique for moving through each different location. * Watch the demonstration very carefully. It immediately follows the Title screen. You just might learn something that will make it easier for you to stop Meio from executing his diabolical plans!

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text When controlling most characters: D-Pad: * Pressing left and right makes your character move in those directions. Pressing Down makes your character drop to his knees or go down a ladder. Pressing Up has different results depending on where the character is and what he is doing. * When your character is kneeling, pressing Up causes him to stand. * If your character is standing under a rafter, ledge, etc. pressing Up makes him leap and grab whatever is overhead. * When your character is hanging from a ledge or deck edge, pressing Up causes him to climb. * If your character is standing in front of a turbolift stop or unlocked door, pressing Up will cause him to step in. * If your character is standing in front of a copanel, disposal tube or other device, pressing Up will make him use the device.

Button B: * Use your fists, phaser, or whatever item in your inventory is currently selected. Button C: * Makes character jump. When controlling Odo: D-Pad: * Pressing left and right makes Odo move in those directions. Pressing Down has no effect. Pressing Up while Odo is in Cave Rat form and in front of a vent causes him to morph into liquid form and "pour" through the vent.

Button B: * Fires the photon torpedoes. In all play modes: Start: * Pauses the game Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Using the Inventory The currently selected inventory item appears in the Starfleet insignia in the upper right corner of the screen. There are two methods of accessing other items in inventory: 1. Quick Draw: Quickly pressing and releasing Button A toggles back and forth between the current item and the last item used, such as toggling between a hypospray and a tricorder. 2. Full Inventory: Press and hold down Button A until the inventory box appears at the bottom of the screen(all on-screen action freezes during this process). The inventory box shows you the icon of the currently selected item and also provides a test description of the item. Press the D-Pad up or down to move back and forth through the items currently available. Press Button A again to exit the inventory box. NOTE: If the HAND icon is the only one that will appear on the inventory list, that means your character is carrying nothing. The Game Screen Health(also Shield Strength): This is the status of the current character. Every time he is injured, the bar in this readout slips down a bit. When the bar is exhausted, so is the character. Health can be built up by consuming food. When piloting the Runabout, this meter represents the energy reserve of the ship's deflector shields. The ship can survive collisions as long as the shields have power. No power, no shields. A collision with the shields down means no more ship. Current Item: Displays icon showing the currently selected tool or item. Pressing Button B causes the character to use whatever item is selected here(phaser, tricorder, etc.). If no item is selected or none are carried the "hand" icon appears. Pressing Button B with the hand as the current item makes your character start punching. Text Display: This box appears only when important text appears. The speaker of the text in the display is indicated by a character's face which appears alongside it. If no character face appears with the text, it is either a readout or a label being read by your character. The A, B or C Button advances the text. The start button pauses the text during play. Mission Profiles Promenade As the heart and hub of Deep Space Nine the Promenade is the best place to find information. Talk to everyone, and don't be shy about going back to someone you've already talked to once you've gotten new information. Saboteurs The superstructure of this docking pylon is immense, and Sisko must thoroughly search it to find the explosives planted by Bajoran terrorists. Pay close attention to the location of ejection tubes, as you'll need to find them fast. Phasers and tricorders are your best friends here: for stunning terrorists and finding explosives, respectively. Gamma Quadrant Watch those shields! They are the only things keeping Major Kira and her ship from being reduced to minor atomic particles. Bajor Pool A deceptively serene scene. That calm looking pool hides sudden drops with undertows that will pull Sisko to his doom. Avoiding them means staying out of the water as much as possible, but nasty venom-spitting plants make using the overhead latticework a dangerous path. Bajor Temple Little danger appears here, as the place seems abandoned. Only Bajoran Bats and Bajoran Cave rats scurry about. There are doors, but what is the key to opening them? Catacombs Under the temple are caves and catacombs, whose inhabitants don't like visitors. It's a dangerous place, with floors slippery from dripping water, sudden drops, and dangerous circulating fans that can pull Sisko in for a nasty blow or hit him with air blasts so strong he cannot pass. There must be controls for these fans somewhere... Saratoga Sisko has been here before, but that doesn't make his mission any easier. This wrecked starship is full of danger, and hardly anything works. Sisko has his hands full. To get his goal he'll have to think fast and use virtually everything at his disposal, and simultaneously not forget his duty to his shipmates. Cardassian Ship Gul Gurgey is not happy and plans to deal harshly with Deep Space Nine. Saving the station will require first stealth, than heroics. Odo and Sisko must race against the clock to save Deep Space nine from certain destruction. WEAPONS AND EQUIPMENT As Commander of Deep Space Nine, you have access to the wide variety of items, tools, and weapons of Starfleet. To better use these implements during your adventure, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with the function of each item. The more you know about the tools you will be using, the better chances you have for completing your mission! Phasers Type I - The Type I phaser is used for covert operations. Type II - Standard phaser issued for defensive purposes. Updated from the original Type II phaser, this new model has up to 16 different power levels. Tricorder Portable data and scanning for collecting, monitoring, and analyzing data. Some are modified for medical or scientific work, and all tricorders aboard DS9 have been altered to access the station's Cardassian central computer network. Runabout Federation starships used for relatively short range interstellar travel. The Runabout is equipped with the following: Photon Torpedoes: Tactical weapons used by Federation starships.

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine The Crew Use Up/Down to scroll text Commander Benjamin Sisko Following the death of his wife, Jennifer, and near-death of his son, Jake, aboard the USS Saratoga, Benjamin Sisko was eventually reassigned to oversee the reconstruction of Deep Space Nine. Maintaining an unstable peace between the diverse visitors to the DS9 is difficult for an outpost at the edge of Starfleet territory. Sisko would rather avoid violence, but he will do whatever it takes to assure peace in the quadrant. Any free time he has is spent either with Jake, or in the holosuite with famous baseball players from the past. Major Kira Nerys A former member of the Bajoran underground, Kira's instrumental role in the Bajorans overthrow of the Cardassians earned her a promotion to Major. Assigned as a liaison to DS9 by the provisional government to silence her radical views, she now serves as Sisko's First Officer. Her loyalties were questioned at first(because of her background), but she has now proven herself to be a dependable federation Officer with a skill for keeping cool in red Alert situations. Lieutenant Jadzia Dax Deep Space Nine's Science Officer is either 28 or over three hundred years old depending on your perspective. Due to an environmental catastrophe, two separate species were forced into a symbiotic union that has come to be known as the Trill. Dax, a Trill, has the knowledge of the symbiont living inside coupled with a youthful host body to make her an invaluable member of DS9's crew. Federation Personnel counselors fear that the identities of past hosts may interfere with her abilities to perform her duties. Dr. Julian Bashir Declining positions on several Federation Starships for his post on Deep Space Nine, Dr. Bashir believes that "Heroes are made in the wilderness." His encyclopedic knowledge of alien life forms, coupled with his exuberance and superior medical training make him perfectly suited for his position on the lonely station. Graduating second in his class from Starfleet Medical Academy, Bashir credits the reports of Dr. McCoy for influencing his medical studies. Odo Odo was rescued by Bajorans during the Cardassian occupation. After Bajor was liberated, Odo assisted the Bajorans in securing order on Deep Space nine, staying on when Starfleet took over the station. Odo is a shape-changer, able to meld his body from a liquid form to a humanoid or inanimate object, although he must spend time in his liquid form to recharge every sixteen hours. He provides security on DS9 with the philosophy "Laws change, but justice is justice." Chief Miles O'Brien After graduating fourth In his class from Starfleet Academy, O'Brien served on several ships, specializing in transporter protocol. After serving with distinction on the USS Enterprise, O'Brien's superior engineering abilities were tapped for Deep Space Nine. Often circumventing normal engineering procedures, Chief O'Brien has accomplished many miraculous repairs on the jury-rigged station. Quark A permanent resident of Deep Space Nine, the Ferengi Quark owns and operates a casino and bar on the Promenade. Convinced to stay on DS9 by Commander Sisko after the liberation of Bajor, Quark is regarded as charming but mischievous. Odo, DS9's security officer, has an extensive file on Quark and keeps a wary eye on him at all times. While Quark's dealings sometimes fall of the shady side of the law, his camaraderie and influence among DS9's many alien visitors is valuable to Starfleet. Visitors to the Station Morn A friend of Quark and a suspected mercenary, very little is known about this mysterious alien. Often seen in Quark's Promenade casino, Morn is quite fond of gambling. Spotted exchanging laser weapons with Quark, Morn's loyalties are questionable at best... Commander Gul Gurgey Gurgey is a typical Cardassian-cold and aloof. As the commander of a Cardassian starship, Gurgey is regarded with suspicion by the Federation and with hatred by the Bajorans who have suffered at his hands. One of the craftiest Cardassians in the galaxy, Gurgey bides his time waiting for the opportune moment to strike a "justifiable" battle with the Bajorans. Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Health can be restored by picking up food located and dispensed throughout different locations in each mission. * Be sure to search all passages, rooms, and storage units for items that can be used. * Be sure to speak to all crew members and inhabitants of DS9 to gain valuable clues and help. * Be on the lookout for key cards that will gain access to certain rooms and passageways. * Use the Bilitrium Grenades to blow up certain obstacles that are in the way. * The Borg can only be stunned by using a phaser and once a phaser is used, the Borg will tune in and assimilate that phaser frequency.

Before you enter a stage, Mission Control will contact you. You'll see the Mission Report screen, which displays a stage map, a readout of your mission orders, verified data, suppositions about the combat situation, and strategy when available.

Sub-Terrania Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Use the Training Grid to learn your controls. Your attack fighter is hyper responsive to every touch on the stick. If you're going to overcompensate on the turns or charge forward with too much thrust, it's best to do it in a safe place. * Gravity: not just a good idea; it's the law. Instead of constantly burning fuel, let gravity do the work. Free fall as much as you can, kicking in with forward or back thrust only as needed. * Don't loiter. Your fighter consumes fuel even when idling its jets. Let the miners climb aboard, but be ready to blast off instantly to escape attackers. * Ride the mining rails--tracks set up to transport valuable ore. Position the fighter at either end of a rail, then press the D-Pad up/down to travel. Press Forward Thrust (default B-Button) at the end of a rail to disconnect. * You must return to base in order to complete each mission.

Button C: * Turbo: together with Button B accelerates over 300 km/h. * Selects options. Super Hang On Equipment Use Up/Down to scroll text The Parts Screen allows you to replace your worn parts with new, high performance parts to race more efficiently. When you experience a fall on your motorcycle the frame, brakes and muffler receive considerable damage. Your engine will be damaged only slightly. Collide with another motorcycle and your frame and muffler will be slightly damaged. However, even if you make it through the entire course without any accidents, almost all of your parts are subject to wear and tear. When your muffler is damaged, your ability to accelerate is reduced. Naturally, when your brakes are damaged, your ability to stop is quickly reduced. The frame, engine, oil and tires, if damaged severely will cause you to quit the race. In the event that your frame is damaged severely and you do not have enough money to buy a new frame, you can still make an appearance on the course. As soon as you approach the starting line, you will have to quit; however, you will be awarded a small amount of prize money. So if you repeat this procedure several times, you will eventually have saved enough prize money to buy a new frame and continue racing. FRAME: If you replace your present frame with a better one, you will be able to turn more quickly. * Iron Cradle: An iron frame that is wrapped around your engine from top to bottom. They are extremely heavy. * Double Cradle: The two arms of an iron frame that is wrapped around the front of your engine. * They are resistant to twisting and have become more reliable although they are heavy. * Aluminum Double Cradle: This double cradle frame is made of aluminum and so it is much lighter. Plus, it also bends easily. * Aluminum Space Frame: This new type of frame is divided into two halves; in front of and behind the engine. It is extremely expensive. * Titanium Space Frame: Patterned after the aluminum space, this frame is developed from titanium alloy. Expensive but light and durable. * Titanium Monocoque Frame: Constructed from sheets of titanium, this is the ultimate frame to own. ENGINE: The engine is the soul of the motorcycle. Be good to it and it will be good to you. * OHC Normal: OHC stands for overhead camshaft, and was developed for use in high revolution engines. * DOHC Normal: Two overhead camshafts are used in this system. The mechanism is more complicated and so maintenance is more difficult. * DOHC V-4: This type of engine is often used in racing motorcycles in the 500cc class. * The cylinders are arranged in a V-pattern with two cylinders in the front and back. Engine width is reduced this way. * Turbo V-4: A turbo charger was added to the DOHC V-4 engine. When you begin to hit speeds over 280 km/h, the acceleration is explosive. * Ceramic Turbo: This ceramic turbo engine is light and wear resistant. Even with current advantages in technology, it is not easy to make this engine. * Twin Turbo: An engine with more power than any of the above. This engine maxes out with two turbos and a ceramic engine. However, high performance does have its costs. This baby is high maintenance! BRAKES: The distance required to stop and the effects of moisture on the brakes will vary according to how superior your brakes are. * Drum Brakes: Drum brakes use an abrasive on a rotating drum to drive the brakes. This system heats up and is hard to cool down. * Disc Brakes: A disc brake mechanism uses a round disc which clamps on both sides of the wheel to stop it from turning. This system is heat resistant and well suited for high speed racing. * Ventilated Disc Brakes: A more improved version of disc brakes. Holes are provided in the discs so they cool down even faster. Steady braking is the result although these brakes carry a hefty price tag. * Double Disc Brakes: Just like the name implies, two discs are used in this brake system for double the efficiency. * Anti-skid Brakes: This brake system prevents tire lock and sideways skidding which typically accompanies sudden braking. MUFFLER: The muffler acts to efficiently rid the engine of exhaust. The better the muffler, the quicker the acceleration. * Normal Muffler: Apart from being inexpensive, this muffler has no outstanding features. * Cool Muffler: This muffler collects the exhaust gases into one mass before discharging them. * Works Original: An original; and practically a work of art. * Private Original: This is made just for your machine--and you can bet it costs a fortune. OIL: Oil helps the engine to run more smoothly. Better oil will increase acceleration and reduce wear. * Regular Oil: No big deal. * Manual Oil: Represents the standard for all oils. * Top Oil: A special additive was incorporated into this oil to improve performance. * Private Original: Highly heat resistant, it is perfectly suited to high speed acceleration and designed just for your machine. TIRES: Tires wear out the fastest on a motorcycle losing their lifesaving road hugging grip. * Normal Tires: Mediocre performance, replacing these tires should be one of the first investments you make. * Radial Tires: By reducing engine power loss, these tires grip the road firmly. * High Performance Tires: Top class sport tires which have sheer will to grip the road. * Slick Tires: Developed expressly for racing, these tires will never let go. * Original Slick Tires: Made by special order, these tires are a perfect fit for your motorcycle and riding style since they're designed expressly for you.

The better you know the course you're about to race on, the better your chance of finishing in a good position. * A manual transmission is faster than an automatic, but at the same time, its operation is more involved. You must worry about downshifting before turns, and anytime that you're in heavy traffic. Make sure you can handle an automatic before you make the transition to manual. * Learn to quickly analyze the course layouts. There are warning signs on the course to signal turns, but it will help you if you're ready for the next curve even before the warning signs appear. * Pick a rival for every race in the World Championship mode--it will be more interesting. When choosing a rival, however, remember the names of the drivers when possible. Choose somebody who's not doing much better than you. If you finished 15th in your last race, you don't need the pressure of having a rival who's #1!

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME MISSIONS USING WEAPONS HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Syndicate Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text For you, the future is now. After the collapse of the New World Order, crime Syndicates swept in to fill the power vacuum. They became the only effective world government, unelected, undemocratic, but controlling the lives of the people through fear. Their greatest weapon was the CHIP. Inserted in the neck, the CHIP altered the user's every perception of the outside world. Better than any drug, it gave hope to millions by numbing their senses to the misery and squalor around them. As a young Syndicate executive you're looking to make your mark. From a control platform high above the teeming city streets you observe as your cyborg agents, controlled by the CHIP, spread the shadow of your terror. Equipped with the latest in high-tech weaponry, their cyborg bodies souped up with extra powerful limbs, your finger rests on the pulse of their every reaction. The CHIP controls API (Adrenaline, Perception and Intelligence) levels. With these, you set the degree of an agent's operational independence during missions. There are over 50 named missions for you to complete. A Syndicate executive must be a master of strategy, assessing a mission environment and planning agent moves. An executive must also have the reflexes of a steroid-addicted sprinter and a remorseless lust for power to commit acts of gross violence but sleep soundly at night.

Syndicate Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Your Mission: The aim of the game is to spread the dark stain of your Syndicate across the surface of the entire globe. The world map is divided into 50 territories. From your home base in Europe you invade adjacent territories and, through the violent subterfuge of your agents, wrestle them from rival Syndicates. But while you're busy expanding your Syndicate's empire abroad, rival agents are working in your own back yard to de-stabilize your Syndicate. Ensure agents are briefed to weed out traitors whose actions might bring about your downfall. Only by meeting all the challenges, destroying all targets and gaining control of all the territories can your Syndicate triumph. Quickstart: To play Syndicate immediately, press Start at the Title Screen. Now select the language in which you wish to play the game. D-pad left/right to choose between English, French, or German and then press Start. he Intro. sequence begins; to cut this short press Start and the Main Menu options are revealed. As Start Game is flashing, press Start again for the Map screen. At the Map screen the only territory with an available mission is Western Europe and its details are on display. You have no choice but to accept this mission. The Mission Briefing icon in the Menu Bar is already highlighted; press A and the Briefing screen appears. On the Briefing screen there's a written mission outline with details of the target and tactics required. When you've absorbed this, press A and the Team selection screen opens. Alternatively, for a really quick Quickstart don't bother to select a team or specialized equipment. Simply press Start and you're in the Mission Zone with four agents armed only with pistols. D-Pad right to select the Cryo Chamber. Next, D-Pad left to the Menu Bar where Equip is highlighted. Press A and the equipment options are revealed. D-Pad left/right to move between the Menu Bar and the equipment options. With the options highlighted, D-Pad up/down through the list and press A; the Weapon Details window opens. Press A and this new bit of kit is added to the agent's equipment inventory. If you're not interested in buying, press C to Cancel. The Weapon Details window closes to reveal the equipment list again. Now press B to select the second agent in the Cryo Chamber and repeat the process to a maximum of four agents. Don't worry about Mods and Research options at this stage--you can get to grips with them later. But for now, once you're adequately equipped press Start and the action begins in the Mission Zone. Alternatively, D-Pad left to highlight the Menu Bar and then D-Pad down to the Start Mission icon. Press A and you're in the Mission Zone. The Mission Zone screen has all the information necessary to the success of a mission. At the bottom the agent Status Boxes have API Level bars, health and ammunition displays. There is also a scanner with a pulse that directs agents to their goal, and below this is a description of the mission target. The Scanner displays all the features of the Mission Zone. The Status Box of the active agent is highlighted. To change the active agent, hold down B and then D-Pad left/right. You can also group the agents and make them all active by pressing A + Start, then they will respond to commands as a unit. To move the active agent(s), press the D-Pad up/down/left/right. Increase walking speed by increasing the level of adrenaline with the API Level bars. API Level bars let you adjust the cyborgs' Adrenaline, Perception and Intelligence levels. To adjust these levels, hold down A and then D-Pad left/right to highlight the appropriate API Level. D-Pad up/down to increase or decrease each level as you see fit. You can quickly boost all your agents' API Levels to maximum by entering Panic Mode. To do this, press A + B simultaneously. On the far left of the API Level indicators is the Health Bar. This shows how much life is left in each cyborg--when the white hits the floor so does the target. Each Status Box also has a weapon icon. To fire the selected weapon, press C. The white bar beside the weapon icon is the ammunition display. If ammo's running low, you can change weapons during the mission by holding down B, and then pressing the D-Pad up/down until the desired weapon icon appears in the Status Box. The targeting icon appears automatically whenever a target is in range. The icon disappears once the victim has been eliminated. After a mission you're taken to the Mission Debriefing screen. If the mission has been successful, press A for the Map screen. At the World Map, choose another territory and another mission, but first, raise taxes on the citizens to boost your remaining budget. If the mission was unsuccessful, any agents killed and money spent are gone for good. Following this first mission you have no choice but to try again, or give up Syndicate and take up a safer hobby like knitting. NOTE: If you've a choice of missions, you might want to come back to any you fail later on, when you've gained experience of how to control and appropriately equip your cyborg agents. Training Mode: Get to grips with controlling your agents without sacrificing money or lives. The Practice level has an additional mission that has no bearing on the rest of your battles. Once you've entered Practice Mode, however, you've no choice but to complete the mission. Afterwards, win or lose, you return to the Main Menu. One Player/Two Player: D-Pad left/right to choose between one or two player Syndicate. The two players must work together to successfully complete a mission. Syndicate Missions Use Up/Down to scroll text Choosing A Mission At the Main Menu, highlight Start Game and press Start to enter the Syndicate global arena. The Map screen is revealed. At the World Map: The World Map is divided into 50 different sized slice. Color coded according to the controlling Syndicate, these slices bear not relation to current conceptions of national boundaries but are solely the result of decades of inter-Syndicate rivalry. The highlighted territory is flashing; and if there is a mission currently available the Start Mission icon in the Menu Bar becomes active. Press B to go to the next mission. When a territory is highlighted, its details appear in the information box to the right of the World Map. D-Pad left/right to move the highlight between the Menu Bar and the Information Box. New Calendar The day, date and year display in the top right of the screen is reckoned according to the New Calendar (N.C.). This was introduced as the global standard when the information revolution had progressed to such a degree that calendar differences threw up unnecessary barriers to communication. Territory Information: Territory information includes: Territory Name: Based on the traditionally most dominant nation in the territory. Population: The higher the population, the more difficult the mission to conquer it. But the greater the reward as you've more people to tax! Current Tax Rate: As you start the game the Tax Rate for each is unknown. Only after successfully completing a mission is the territory's Tax Rate revealed. Raise the taxes too high and the populace become annoyed--just check the Status. That's when they can become rebellious and need some discipline, Syndicate style! Status: Either Very Happy, Happy, Content, Discontent, Unhappy or Rebellious. A number of factors influence Status, including the length of time you have ruled them and the tax rates of surrounding territories owned by your Syndicate--if you're taxing their neighbors less heavily, the population feel justifiably victimized. Brief: Only when there's an arrow in the Start Mission icon in the Menu Bar is there a mission available to capture a territory. With the Mission Brief icon highlighted, press A for the Mission Brief screen. Accepting a Mission: Having assessed your chances of completing the mission, press A with the Team Selection icon highlighted in the Menu Bar; the Team Selection screen appears. Preparing For A Mission Team Selection: You can prepare up to four agents for a mission. Remember that it's often easier to control only a couple of agents when the bullets, bombs and laser bolts are flying, and dead agents are just so much wasted Syndicate moolah. You select your agents from the Cryo Chamber. At the beginning of a Syndicate session you have eight agents available with identical attributes, the first four of which are numbered. The remaining Cryo Chambers register as Empty, but can be filled with captured enemy agents as the game goes on. At the top of the Cryo Chamber is your remaining budget. Equipment purchases and Modifications are deducted from this, but give agents more specific mission uses. They also gain experience with their weaponry as the game progresses. In this way you should develop an enviable selection of cyborg killing talent for your Syndicate. Enemy agents captured using the Persuadertron are added to the Cryo Chamber. Remember, any agents killed during a mission are dead and gone forever so make sure your pool of mission personnel doesn't dry up, or it's Game Over! Choosing Team Members: Press B and the first agent in the Cryo Chamber is highlighted along his/her weapons inventory and any modifications. You can now Equip and Modify this agent to your heart's content (budgetary restraints notwithstanding). When you're done, select the next agent in the Cryo Chamber by pressing B. Alternatively, press A to deselect this agent from its slot; the Status Box at the bottom of the screen goes blank. You can go on a mission with less than four agents, or select another from the Cryo Chamber for the vacated slot. To do this, D-Pad down to highlight a free agent and press A. If you're happy with your choice, press A again and the slot number appears beside the agents name. If not, press C to cancel. Now Equip and Modify this agent in preparation for the mission. Replacing Dead Agents: When an agent is killed, you must assign an inoperative agent to the vacant slot. To do this, highlight the Cryo Chamber and D-Pad up/down through the list of remaining agents. Press A to display the agent's details, and then press B to toggle through the vacant slot numbers. Press A to deposit the inactive agent in one of the vacant slots, or press C to Cancel and choose another agent. Equipping Your Agents When you've chosen a Team member, D-Pad left to the Menu Bar where the Equip icon is highlighted. Press A to open the Equip screen. Each agent is already supplied with a single pistol, but they need far more equipment than that if they're to prevail against enemy cyborgs, police droids and guards yet still achieve their objective. At the beginning of the game you have only four equipment options: persuadertron, pistol, shotgun and medikit. Research money is needed to perfect more. D-Pad right to select the equipment list, and then D-Pad up/down to highlight an item from the list. Press A and the equipment window opens with details of the cost, ammo and range of a particular weapon. Simply pressing A adds this equipment to an agent's inventory. If you decide not to buy, press C to Cancel; the icon evaporates and you can select another item from the list. After selecting equipment, the window stays open. To equip your whole team, just press B to move onto the next agent. Pressing A again adds the selected piece of equipment to the agent's inventory. Budget: Throughout the game the cost of equipment is debited from this figure, while profits from taxation and weapon sales are added. This money can be used for further tooling up your troop of cyborgs, or put into Research in order to perfect still more lethal weapons and still more powerful modifications. When you've thrown all the cash away on unsuccessful missions the game doesn't end, but life becomes very difficult. Agents are sent into action without extra equipment or further modifications. At this point the self-destruct option can come in handy. But remember, when all you agents are dead the game really is over. Modifying Your Agents Now that your agent has equipment, he/she needs the brain, muscle and sinew necessary to use it. To tune your cyborgs' physiques to perfection, D-Pad left to the Menu Bar where the Mods icon is highlighted. Press A and the Mods screen appears with a list of currently available modifications. Choose between designer limbs, eyes, heart, chest and brain to produce the ultimate killing machine. D-Pad right to select the mods list, and then D-Pad up/down to highlight an item from the list. Press A and the mods window opens with version number, cost and a written description of its advantages. Simply pressing A adds this modification to the cyborg's body. The modification name and version number appear beneath the agent icon and the Mods list re-opens. If you decide not to buy, press C to Cancel; the icon evaporates and you can select another item from the list. Versions: Each physical modification comes in three versions. As the game begins only Version 1 is available and money needs to be invested on Research before you can get your hands on Versions 2 and 3. The higher the version number, the more current the technology and the greater any advantages. But they also carry a greater price tag, so be prepared to pay through the nose. Legs: Move your agent at much greater speed around the mission Zone than conventional legs. Arms: Allow an agent to carry a larger amount of equipment unhindered. Eyes: Improve awareness of oncoming hazards and better an agent's accuracy when firing. Chest: Modify a cyborg with a metallic chest to help it survive direct hits during opposition attacks. Versions 2 and 3 also contain a massive explosive charge that is triggered in Self-Destruct mode. Heart: A bigger heart improves overall physical strength and durability. Brain: Even the Version 1 brain is better than that currently installed within your agent's noggin. Vital for quick, correct decision making under pressure. Also, the higher the version brain installed, the greater the effects of the Persuadertron. Research Screen It's a foolish Syndicate executive who thinks that they can prevail with Version 1 modifications and the meager weapons initially. As the old saying goes, "no bucks-no Buck Rogers." It's up to you to channel funds into Research, from where new designs are added to the Equipment and Modification lists. To access the Research Screen, use the D-Pad to select the Menu Bar. The Research icon is highlighted; press A to open the Research screen. Equipment Development: Equipment is grouped in categories according to its function. Think about the demands of forthcoming missions and the equipment your agents are lacking before deciding on the Research Option to be developed. Use the D-Pad left/right to highlight Equip and then D-Pad up/down to select an equipment category. The funding controls appear. Speed up development by pressing the D-Pad up; the line on the Research Graph gets steeper. Budget looking a little thin? Reduce the speed of development and save some funds by pressing the D-Pad down; the line on the Research Graph becomes correspondingly shallower. Modification Development: D-Pad right to select the Research Options. Use the D-Pad up/down to highlight an option and then press A. Details of the maximum and minimum investment are revealed, and the name of the modification being developed appears above the Research Graph. To adjust funding, D-Pad up/down. The line on the Research Graph becomes correspondingly steeper or shallower. Note: Version 2 modifications need to be developed fully before Version 3 updates become available. Development Graph The Development Graph is an at-a-glance indicator of the state of development for any Modification or piece of Equipment. Detailed on the vertical axis is percentage Completion and on the horizontal axis Days to Completion. The line shows this completion/time ratio and becomes shaded along its length to make the time to completion even more graphic. Confirming Development When all budgetary limitations have been taken into account and the desired cost/time threshold reached, D-Pad left to activate the Menu Bar where the Start Mission icon is highlighted. Press A and the action begins. Alternatively, press Start and you're propelled into the Mission Zone where chaos reigns and every shadow conceals an enemy. In the Mission Zone Once you've adequately kitted out your cyborg servants, you're ready for a mission. The Mission Zone screen displays all the information you need to lead your Syndicate agents to their target. Your agents' operational status is displayed in the Status Boxes at the bottom of the screen. From here you're able to adjust API Levels, check on an agent's health, and keep track of how much ammo is left in the selected weapon. API Levels: With the three bars you control injections of drugs which alter your agents' adrenaline (A), perception (P), and intelligence (I) levels in real time. Accurate control of API Levels is essential if you're to progress to the higher echelons of your Syndicate. Adrenaline--controls speed of reactions. Perception--improves precise firing and alerts an agent to danger earlier. Intelligence--controls an agent's reactions to a given situation. An agent with high adrenaline and low intelligence reacts quickly but erratically--he may fire wide or too soon. Raising intelligence may prompt an agent to get out of a risky situation rather than risk his life. This is especially true in combination with higher perception. If you want your agent to walk blindly into certain death, lower intelligence and perception together. It's a good tactic to crank up API Levels when leaving agents on lookout within the Mission Zone. They fire to defend themselves while awaiting the next command. Guard Mode Press A + C to put your agents into Guard Mode. You still control the active agent, while those remaining are grouped, with their perception and intelligence levels boosted but adrenaline retarded. In this way the active agent can continue to look for the mission objective, without leaving your remaining agents sitting ducks. Sleep Mode Press B + C to enter Sleep Mode. While you still retain control of the active agent, your other cyborgs have their API Levels lowered to facilitate a quick recovery. Adjusting API Levels To adjust API Levels, press and hold A. Move the white arrow over the appropriate API level bar by pressing the D-Pad left/right. Still holding A, now D-Pad up/down to raise or retard a particular API level. The green, blue and red bars show dosage of the drug; the darker segment of these bars indicates the amount of drug used up. When the dark segment achieves the same extent as the normal color bar, the effect of the drug begins to diminish. The length of the level indicator falls off accordingly. The center line moves to show drug dependency; future injections need to be greater to have the same effect. Retarding API Levels reduces dependency; do this when an agent is under no real threat. The longer an agent's API Levels are rested, the greater the improved performance when injected later. NOTE: In Group Mode any API Level adjustments to a single agent affect them all, and in Panic Mode API Levels are maximized across the board. Health Bar This ain't where cyborgs go for a little R 'n R! The Health Bar indicates remaining life. These cyborgs can take some punishment, but when there's more black than white on show it's time to take evasive action. The Health Bar can be restored using a MediKit and is restored over time when adrenaline levels are reduced if you have chest modification version 1 or higher. Changing Active Agent The active agent's Status Box is highlighted. To change active agent, hold down B and D-Pad left/right; the highlight moves accordingly. Scanner From your vantage point high above the city you observe proceedings and monitor the actions of your agents. To help you plot agent moves, warn you of advancing enemy cyborgs and locate the target, the control airship is equipped with a Scanner which reproduces an aerial view of the Mission Zone. Objects in the Mission Zone are color coded as follows: Civilians = white Persuaded civilians = grey Your agents = large white dots Enemy agents = red dots Guards = flashing green/brown dots Police enforcer droids = flashing blue/grey Cars = white Dropped weapons = red Walls = light blue Fences = green Roads = grey Water/pits = blue/grey After the Mission Mission Debriefing: Press Start after each mission and the Debriefing screen gives you the mission statistics. These include agents killed, agents used, hit percentage--a breakdown of everything that happened during the mission. If things went badly for your Syndicate, here's where you find out why. The Debriefing screen also tells you when new equipment and modifications are available. At the bottom of the Debriefing screen is the passcode. Write this down and don't lose it! You can type it in at the Passcode screen at a later date and continue your conquest. Current research will not be saved. We recommend you wait until the completion of your research before resetting the game. This way all territories won, agents lost, money spent and equipment researched is preserved. When you restart the game using the passcode, agents are stripped of their equipment and modifications so that they can be appropriately customized for the next mission. The value of the equipment and modifications has been added to your mission budget. The money gained is also added to your mission budget. Leaving the Debriefing Screen From the Debriefing Screen, press A with the Map icon highlighted in the Menu Bar; the World Map screen appears. Following successful missions, the territory adjacent to that in which you have triumphed flashes to indicate that a Brief is available. After unsuccessful missions, no new territories are flashing. Raising Taxes: After winning a mission you have earned the right to levy outrageous rates of tax on the helpless citizens. All the cash raised is added to your overall budget. But you'd better watch for population mood changes. If you're hammering them with excessive tax demands and they're anything less than Content, the citizens can turn rebellious. You could end up fighting an extra mission (and thereby spending extra Syndicate funds) to bring the territory back in line. Lower taxes if necessary to improve the mood and prevent rival Syndicate insurgents taking advantage. D-Pad right to select the territory Information Box. The tax adjuster arrows are activated you can now levy taxes as you see fit by pressing the D-Pad up/down; the tax figure changes in five percent increments. Choosing a New Mission: One of the adjoining territories controlled by rival Syndicates have been de-stabilized by your success. This flashes to indicate that it's ripe for a take-over. You can only expand your Syndicate into these areas, otherwise there is no arrow on the Start Mission icon in the Menu Bar. To choose this territory press B, and then check out the Mission Briefing. Selling Weapons: Trade in unnecessary weaponry and boost your budget using the Sell option. At the Equip screen, highlight the equipment list and the Sell option is activated. D-Pad right and the agent's equipment inventory is listed. D-Pad up/down through the list and press A for the weapon details; the selected weapon's icon flashes in the agent's inventory. Press A now to Sell. Your budget increases accordingly. Alternatively, press C to Cancel; the weapon details are replaced by the inventory list. Failure: If your agents fail to respond to your commands, or your commands do not come quickly enough, the mission fails. The mission can also fail due to assassination by enemy agents or other various accidents. The on-screen instruction to press Start takes you to the Mission Debriefing screen. From here, access the World Map and choose a different territory. Note: If this is still the first mission you've no choice but to try again. But then, if you're having so much trouble with an easy mission you probably aren't cut out for the Syndicate anyway. Game Over: If you're so inept that all eight cyborgs supplied by the Syndicate are killed, the game is over. Syndicate Using Weapons Use Up/Down to scroll text Using Weapons Your agents are each equipped with an auto-targeting device which informs you when a target is in range. But as their Syndicate master, it's up to you to pull the trigger. Press C and the active agent(s) spray bullets around the Mission Zone with insane abandon. To change the currently selected weapon, hold B + D-Pad up/down through the weapons inventory until the desired weapon icon appears in the Status Box and then release B. Press C to fire the new weapon. It's a good idea to select a new weapon well before you reach your target, where things might be hectic and swift, unnecessary violence called for. Grabbing Weapons The weapons of agents killed in action, whether enemies or your own, can be retrieved. Move an active agent over to the smoking remains of an enemy agent or police droid and your man-machine bends down and quickly conceals grabbed weapons in the folds of his/her overcoat. If the dead dude had multiple firepower, you can keep retrieving weapons until either all are claimed or the agent can hold no more. Discarding Weapons When all the ammo has been used a weapon can become a burden. To discard a weapon from the agent's inventory, hold B and then press Start. It's up to you to judge whether your funds can cover such losses, but you always have the option of picking it up again later (if someone else hasn't gotten there first). Moving Your Agents: You can differentiate between your agents in the Mission Zone by their color: red, green, blue or white. Their movements are controlled with the D-Pad, but only the active agent responds to D-Pad movements. To change the active agent, press and hold B then D-Pad left/right until the Status Box of your choice is highlighted. The view of the Mission Zone zooms to the location of the new active agent. If your agent has entered a building, a vehicle or disappeared into a tunnel, follow the agent's arrow to trace the route. This also allows you to maneuver a cyborg even when out of sight. You can also follow their progress on the Scanner. Speed To make your agents move more quickly around the Mission Zone you can increase the Adrenaline level, or invest in higher version legs. But the load an agent is carrying also has an effect, so you must carefully judge the amount of equipment taken on the mission--too much could hinder your progress. Group Mode Combine all your agents in real time during the mission using Group Mode. Hold A and press Start to activate Group Mode; all your agents' Status Boxes are highlighted and they respond to D-Pad movements in unison. They also try to select the same, or as near to the same, weapon as the active agent. In this way you can have a gruesome twosome, threatening threesome or frightening foursome on patrol. To de-activate the Group Mode, hold A and press Start again. The agent who was the last active before entering Group Mode becomes the only one under direct D-Pad command. Urban Update: Here are some of the obstacles you can expect to come across on the teeming city streets during a Syndicate mission. Enemy Agents Cyborgs controlled by rival Syndicates have orange hair and black overcoats. Unlike police droids which wait for arms to be revealed, enemy agents don't stand on ceremony when it comes to gunning down your operatives. If you're not careful they're firing before you can even arm a cyborg, so move quickly. Police Enforcer Droids As the streets of tomorrow are far too dangerous for a flesh and blood police force, enforcer droids have been developed to do the job. These droids are silver in color and have a red light on the top of their chrome domes. Hampered by archaic laws, police enforcer droids cannot fire on Syndicate agents until weapons are already drawn and the streets awash with innocent blood. Although well constructed and well armed, this helps make police droids perfect for cyborg target practice. The Target The unfortunate soul who is the mission Target can be tracked to his bolt hole by following the red tracking pulse on the scanner. Use the D-Pad to move your agents in the direction of this pulse. Vehicles Use cars and trucks to move your agents around the Mission Zone more quickly. Direct your agents toward the car and they enter it automatically; you can now direct the vehicle's movements around the Mission Zone using the D-Pad. To leave a vehicle, press A + Start. Buildings You can trace the movements of an agent when hidden from view inside a building by following his/her agent arrow on the Mission Zone display. Emergency Measures: It's not all plain sailing in the world of Syndicate. So you've a fighting chance when things are at their worst, here are a couple of tactics which could save your cyborgs' Flexiflesh skins. Panic Mode If things are looking bad and enemy agents closing in, press A + B simultaneously to enter Panic mode. Selected agents automatically choose a weapon to fire, while API Levels shoot up to maximum. Self-Destruct Okay, so your remaining agents are out of ammo and rival Syndicate scum are circling like vultures, ready for the kill. What to do now? If you've invested in Chest Mod Version 2 or 3, press A + B + C simultaneously and the active agent blows himself to smithereens, taking out everyone and everything in the surrounding area. Your remaining agents (who have been positioned well out of range, of course) can then grab spare weapons and continue the fight. Similarly, Self-Destruct comes in handy when your budget has been swallowed up on unsuccessful missions. Even an unarmed agent can be a lethal weapon if it successfully evades detection and reaches the target; press A + B + C simultaneously and the mission is completed. Self-destruct earlier to relieve enemy agents of the weaponry your cyborgs desperately need. Dead Agents Dead agents forfeit all their weaponry and modifications, and are not available for further missions-hence the importance of capturing personnel for the Cryo Chamber. It's better to watch for hits and respond by switching the active agent to give enemy operatives some well-deserved payback. Escaping With Your Life When all hope of victory is lost, you can escape the Mission Zone by pausing the game and then pressing Start and buttons A + B + C simultaneously. Okay it's chicken, but he who fights and runs away doesn't get roasted by his Syndicate overlords. Equipment: Firearms: Pistol: Large caliber hand gun. Medium range projectile weapon. Very cheap gun that is easily outclassed but useful as a backup weapon. Shotgun: Pump action shotgun with a large spread of shells. Does more damage than the hand gun, but let down by its lack of effective range. At close range, however, this can inflict real hurt. Persuadertron: A short range weapon that fires a small dose of chemical which renders the target totally open to suggestion. When hit, victims momentarily turn blue, lose all free will and follow your agent around the mission zone like sheep. Persuaded people can pick up weapons which they fire whenever instructed. Civilians are always open to persuasion, and you need to persuade varying numbers of civilians before the Persuadertron has any effect on guards, police droids or enemy agents. Also, the effects of the Persuadertron are multiplied depending upon the version brain installed in the cyborg using it. It is recommended to always carry one Persuadertron in your group. Uzi SMG: 9mm automatic hand gun. Fast rate of fire and medium range. Plenty of ammunition and a relatively low cost make this weapon the mainstay of any offensive force. Long Range Rifle: Very long range and extremely accurate high velocity rifle. A single shot weapon designed for picking off individual targets at a distance. Useful for assassination attempts and long range support fire. Support Weapons: Flamer: Produces a stream of ignited jelly that sticks to targets and burns. Very short range but devastating. An effective anti-vehicle weapon or for close crowd clearance. Mini Gun: Motor driven multi-barreled machine gun. Devastating rate of fire and a decent range make this an ideal support weapon for any squad. However, any unmodified agent attempting to carry more than one of these may encounter problems with the huge weight involved. Laser Gun: Small rifle that uses laser light to form a beam of high powered energy that cuts through its targets and anyone or anything foolish enough to get in the way. Extremely powerful with a very long range. Idea anti-vehicle weapon and also effective for sniping. Gauss Gun: Portable launcher with a supply of three rockets. The rockets themselves are long range high explosives, quite capable of destroying tanks or eliminating large groups of people. Special Equipment: Time Bomb: High powered explosive that comes complete with timer and detonator. Explodes after a set time period devastating the surrounding area. The time bomb can also be triggered by firing at it. The explosive is not quite powerful enough to damage structures but readily destroys people and vehicles. Choose the weapon icon from the weapons inventory, drop the time bomb and then leg it! MediKit: A small pack that contains everything required for minor field surgery. It restores a single agent's health but may only be used once. Energy Shield: Personal force field generator. Completely covers the individual with a protective force wall that can withstand all projectile weapons. Due to the immense power drain, this item has a very short life span but does slowly recharge after use. Syndicate Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * A smart thing to do before diving into the game is to choose the Training Mode game. Doing this will help you in learning to use your weapons and how to move your men as a team. Even more helpful and fun is hooking in a four player adapter and having three of your friends join in. * When all else fails, activate the Destruct Mode to clear out some of the garbage. * Power-up your agents with cybernetic enhancements to make them more formidable warriors.

Taz-Mania Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Taz starts the game with three Tries and a full Health Bar. Every time he gets hit, he loses some health. Watch out! Some enemies and obstacles are worse than others, and Taz could lose all his health at once. It's a good thing he loves to eat, because almost every time he gobbles something, he gains health and earns points. If Taz loses all his health, he loses a Try and starts the scene over. When all his Tries are gone, the game ends. You can restart the level by moving Taz to the RIGHT on the Continue screen. If all your Continues are gone, the game ends for good. Pointers Milestones mark special spots in a scene. When you lose a Try, Taz will restart the scene from the scene from the last Milestone he passed. (If you're Continuing, Taz will restart the scene from the beginning.) Arrows show which way Taz should go. Signposts mark the end of a scene. Walk in front of one to go on to the next scene. Snacks Chili Peppers heat Taz up! Eat these and press the Action button for hot breath that no critter can handle. Taz will cool down after breathing fire a few times. Frozen Fish, Roast Chicken, Fruit Plates, and Water Jugs are just what Taz needs. Gobble these to gain health and points. Stars make Taz invulnerable for a short time. Nothing can hurt him while he's flashing. Photos of Taz give him either one extra Try or one extra continue (three extra Tries). Bombs explode. If Taz eats one, he'll explode too! No Weed gives Taz a very bad stomach ache when he eats it. But it's the best thing to throw on Weed-Ola in the jungle. Taz-Mania The Places to Go Use Up/Down to scroll text The Badlands What's so good about the Badlands? Eating Chili Peppers and guzzling water from Water Jugs. Also, munching on Sand Spiders and jumping on Rock Monsters. Danger! Danger! Quicksand ahead. Hitch a ride on the Rock Monsters or jump and spin right out of the gooey stuff when he gets stuck. Yahoo! Ride the Whirling Waterspouts like bucking broncos. Go high, go low, but don't fall off! Jumping gets Taz across the hot rocks. Use the Rock Monsters for stepping stones. Get one to follow Taz, then jump on its head to get to a higher spot. Spin! If there's nowhere to go, take a chance. Jump and spin, and see where it lands you. And don't let Taz stand around when Bull Gator and Axl come rolling through! The Factory Somebody left a crate in the garage. Great! Pick it up and use it for a step. Walk on the conveyor belts in the opposite direction to the way they're moving, so you don't get smashed by pistons. Time your jumps over the whirling fans and the slamming doors on the blast furnaces. If you get stuck with no way out, try jumping down by pressing the Jump button plus the D-Pad DOWN. The factory's run by robots, but some of the control points are unguarded. Find the levers and use the Action button to throw the switch. You'll get a kick-or maybe a zap!-out of what happens next. The factory's too dangerous to take chances, so don't skip meals. Figure out how to run between the laser shots. Sometimes waiting for a clear path is better than dashing like crazy straight into trouble! The Jungle It's wild! And full of wildlife. The Bush Rats and Weed Buds aren't too keen on Taz's invasion. Jump on the critters to knock them off rocky outcrops. Or spin to whack them. Be careful Taz doesn't go overboard too! Taz has an extra ability on the river. As the logs float by, he can ride them downstream! Press the D-Pad DOWN when jumping to jump forward, toward the river. Press it UP to jump backward, toward land. Use the river rocks for landing spots, too. But don't trust your footing on any one spot for too long. In Practice and Easy modes, Taz will bound out of the river if he falls in, as long as he's healthy enough. If he gets too weak, he goes under. In Hard mode, any time Taz falls in the water he's out of luck. Jumping spins will take you to the top of the Rat Tree. Sometimes you'll just have to go for it, without knowing where you'll land. Don't let Taz eat the bags of No Weed. Throw them at Weed-Ola instead. Or tromp on its head to stamp out this snapping jungle giant. Iceland Slick ice! And Taz keeps slipping on it! Press the D-Pad in the opposite direction to the way Taz is walking to keep him from sliding right off the edge of the frozen chunks. MMMmmmmm-frozen fish for supper! The Penguins put up a squabble when Taz goes after it, so give them a dunking. It's Arctic weather, so it only takes a second for Taz to freeze up into a Taz cube when he falls into the icy water. Keep his health up, and he'll be able to break out and spin to safety. Jump from floe to floating floe. And look for the secret igloo full of goodies near the end. The Mine Taz takes a wild ride on a roller-coasting ore cart. The cart is almost out of control, so you've got to be quick to make it through safely. Press the D-Pad LEFT to slow down, and RIGHT to speed up. Press and hold the Action button to lift the cart over obstacles, and release it to set the cart down again. Look for the Up an Down arrows that show you when to raise and lower the cart. Watch the lights right before jumping over the deep pits. Yellow lights mean "Slow down!" Green lights mean "Speed up!" to get across safely. Once you're in the mine shafts, use the elevators to zip around. Grab the lever with the Action button, and press the D-Pad UP or DOWN to move. Some elevators are on rubber ropes. Jump to make them plunge down faster and snap back higher. Don't forget, though-in this old mine, some elevators will be "Out of Order!" The Taztec Ruins The ancient ruins are crumbling away, and loaded with lively Bush Rats. The temple is so broken down, it's turned into a maze of dead ends. Be careful here. The flaming Dragon Heads are still active, and the bats can get so pesky that you might be tricked into twirling right off the ledges. Find the Milestones as soon as you can. At the top of the temple, Taz discovers the stone statues of his ancestors. You must be getting close! The Giant Seabird Nest You've found it-the long-lost legendary giant seabird's nest and its enormous egg! Now you've got to figure out how to get rid of Momma Bird. Good luck! Taz-Mania Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Hit the switches to turn off the laser cannons and the conveyor belts to get through Stage 2-2. It's easier! * In Stage 4-2, defeat the boss by jumping over his arrows and hit him with your spinning attack. Keep spinning at him from one side to another until he gives up!

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME SPELLS HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES TechnoClash Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text PREPARE FOR TECHNOCLASH From the Journal of Ronaan: A daemon has arrived in the Inner Realm via an interdimensional portal. We call him the Engine Man--half man, half machine. The Engine Man's presence foretells the coming of the TechnoClash, the war between technology and magick which has been prophesied all these many years. It is only a matter of time before armies of Engine Men follow this one and set about destroying the beauty of the Inner Realm with their harsh metal, their vile oil, the stench of their grinding gears. Abaris, my mentor, called me to his side this day and honored me with these words: "It falls to you, Ronaan, as the Wizard Prince of the Inner Realm. The TechnoClash is at hand. You must assemble your bodyguards and chase the Engine Man. Follow the Engine Man into his own world, and there, destroy him and all that are like him. I will accompany you, and advise you, but you alone have the power to save the Inner Realm." I have just learned that Abaris' Life Staff has been stolen. Its power must not fall into the hands of Technology--our situation is more dire than we thought. At dawn we cross through the one-way portal into the unknown--the Outer Realm. Only when we have discovered the source of the Engine Men and destroyed it, and recovered the powerful Life Staff, can we return. If we fail, the Inner Realm falls. I pray I will find it within me to do what I must do. TechnoClash Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text D-Pad: * Use this to move Ronaan in any direction.

Press and hold the first button, then press the second button. TechnoClash Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Scrolling The Screen: Sometimes enemies wait just out of sight, and their attacks seem to come out of nowhere. Using the Scroll feature you can see one screen away from Ronaan. You are able to use the Scroll feature at any time during combat, which makes it easier to defend against enemies just out of view. * To Scroll the screen, hold A and D-Pad in any direction. When you release A, the screen centers on Ronaan again. Indar's View: Indar is the Falcon of Second Sight and Ronaan's constant companion. Through Indar's eyes, Ronaan can scour the terrain of the current level to spot enemies, portals, and other objectives. Whatever action you are doing when you look through Indar's view does not stop. The Radar Window shows the locations of enemies (gray dots) relative to Indar's position (marked by a red cross). The Locator Arrow indicates the position of the current Bodyguard relative to Indar's position, enabling Ronaan to quickly locate his Bodyguard in the event they become separated. * To bring up Indar's View from the Game Screen, hold A and press Start. * To bring up Indar's View from the Options Menu, D-Pad up/down to highlight GO TO INDAR VIEW, then press A. * To move Indar, D-Pad in any direction. He continues in that direction until you D-Pad in another direction. * To bring up the Options Menu (pause) from Indar's view, press Start. Press Start again to return to Indar's View. NOTE: When the Options Menu is accessed from Indar's view, only GO TO FIELD VIEW is available. * To return to Ronaan's view, hold A and press Start again. Ronaan's Staff: Ronaan always carries his staff, which can be used as a back-up weapon when spells are running low. When used at close-range, the staff is a fairly powerful weapon. The staff is especially useful for fending off incoming projectiles. Ronaan can swing the staff to block most bullets and spells, which sends them flying back at the enemy. * To swing the staff, press A. Be sure Ronaan is directly facing his enemy when he swings. Tokens: Tokens appear on the ground as Ronaan and his bodyguard destroy enemies. Each token displays a color and a letter that indicate its type: spell, cardkey, or bodyguard ammunition. Spells and ammo can be found in each level, and cardkeys only on some levels. To pick up a token, move Ronaan over it. * Blue = Combat Spell. * Purple = Non-Combat Spell. * Red = Chazz Ammo. * Green = Farrg Ammo. The Life Meter: The Life Meters on the right side of the screen represent Ronaan and his bodyguard's health. Life meters are restored when a HEAL spell is cast, or whenever you return Ronaan to Camp. When Ronaan's Life Meter hits bottom, the "Game Over" message appears. If you have Continues remaining, the Continue Screen appears. Continues: Ronaan begins with three lives, or Continues. He can acquire additional Continues in the form of "beating heart" tokens found throughout the game. The number of Continues remaining is always displayed at the top of the Options Menu. When Ronaan loses a life, the Continue screen appears with YES highlighted. * To continue the game, press B with YES highlighted. Ronaan is returned to the beginning of the current level. * To return to the Main Menu, use the D-Pad to highlight NO, then press B. NOTE: Be sure to write down the password at the bottom of the Continue Screen in case you need to restore your game later. The Options Menu: When the Options Menu is active, the game is paused. The Options Menu can be accessed from the Game Screen, as well as from Indar's View. * To pause the game and call up the Options Menu, press START. * NOTE: When the Options Menu is accessed from Indar's View, only GO TO FIELD VIEW is available. The Options Menu gives you a status report on your remaining Continues (lives), current level, spells and ammo carried, and your Bodyguard's current ATTITUDE. At the bottom of the screen is your current password, which can be used to restore the current game. The Spell List Most of the Options Menu screen is devoted to the Spell List, which tells you how many of each spell Ronaan is carrying. You can also use the list to select a Combat Spell, or to cast a Non-Combat spell. * To select a spell, use the D-Pad to highlight the desired spell, then press A. Non-Combat Spells take effect immediately. Combat Spells must be cast by pressing B at the Game Screen. Inventory Inventory lists all the cardkeys you've picked up on your current level. * To view your inventory D-Pad up/down to highlight INVENTORY, then right/left to scroll through items. Bodyguard Attitude You can instruct the bodyguard to behave in one of three ways: offensively, defensively (guard), or passively (shadow). OFFENSIVE: Bodyguard seeks out and attacks the nearest enemy on the screen. GUARD: Bodyguard sticks right by Ronaan at all times and battles the attacker nearest to him. SHADOW: Bodyguard sticks right by Ronaan at all times, but does not attack or defend against enemies. Bodyguard cannot levitate in this mode. * To set Bodyguard Attitude, D-Pad up/down to highlight BODYGUARD ATTITUDE, then left/right to select OFFENSIVE, GUARD, or SHADOW. NOTE: When the bodyguard is knocked unconscious and returned to the Camp, his attitude defaults to GUARD. Bodyguards: Bodyguards usually accompany Ronaan in his travels and help him fend off enemy attacks. Each bodyguard has specific talents, making him uniquely useful on given levels. FARRG: Farrg is a barbarian--not too bright but very loyal. He's faster than Chazz, on his feet and with his weapon. He carries a broad sword, which does more damage than Chazz's staff. Though he's a good fighter, Farrg can't follow when you levitate. He'll serve Ronaan well on the early levels. CHAZZ: Chazz isn't a barbarian, though his manners aren't always perfect. In close combat he uses a staff, which is not quite as powerful as Farrg's broad sword. Chazz has some good spells which do more damage than Farrg's bullets. The best thing about Chazz is that he can teleport to Ronaan's location when he levitates, making him the clear choice for bodyguard on later levels. Bodyguard Ammo: Each bodyguard uses special ammo for his weapon of choice. When Ronaan picks up a token for your current bodyguard (C=Chazz, F=Farrg), he gets more ammo. A bodyguard can carry no more than 255 rounds. NOTE: Only tokens for the current bodyguard increase his ammo (C tokens don't help Farrg, and vice-versa). The Camp (pause): The Camp is where Ronaan goes to regroup and get information from his mentor, Abaris, and the bodyguards. Whenever you return to the Camp, Ronaan's Life Meter is refreshed. When you exit the Camp, you can choose a new bodyguard if you wish. There are two ways to return to camp: by going back to the place where the level started, or by using the Teleport spell. Generals: Generals (bosses) await Ronaan at the end of each level, when the level's goal has been achieved. Each level holds at least one General, sometimes more. Ronaan must destroy each General in order to advance to the next level. Generals are much stronger than other enemies. When Ronaan battles a General, the General's Life Meter appears on the left side of the screen. Like Ronaan and the bodyguards' Life Meters, the General's Life Meter represents his health. When the Life Meter hits bottom, the General is destroyed. Generals carry stolen shards of Abaris' mighty Life Staff. Life Staff Shards: Each of the Generals carries a shard of Abaris' Life Staff. Shards appear as sparkling objects when a General is destroyed. Each Life Staff Shard Ronaan recovers makes his Life Meter grow larger, allowing him to survive more damage. * To pick up a Life Staff Shard, move Ronaan over it. TechnoClash Spells Use Up/Down to scroll text Using Spells and Weapons Ronaan uses a variety of spells for both combat and non-combat related purposes. During his travels he'll pick up spell tokens which give him additional "rounds" (up to 99 each) of each spell. Spellcasting Spells can be selected and/or cast from the Game Screen (during play), or from the Options Menu (with the game paused). The following section contains instructions for casting Combat and Non-Combat spells. Casting Spells from the Game Screen Combat Spells Be sure Ronaan is facing the enemy or object you intend to damage before you cast a combat spell. * To bring up the spell matrix, press and hold C (this does NOT pause the action). * Use the D-Pad to highlight the spell you wish to use, then release C to select it. The spell's letter appears in the lower left section of the screen. The number above the spell indicates how many rounds you have left. In the case of the Basic Spell, the number above the spell tells you how many rapid-fire rounds remain. * To cast the current combat spell, press B. Non-Combat Spells Spell 3-button 6-button Heal A + B MODE Levitate C + B Y Teleport C + A X Invulnerable A + C Z For information on casting spells from the Options Menu, see Playing the Game. A Wizard's Guide to Spells Ronaan can acquire and cast thirteen different combat and non-combat spells. He begins the game with a few rounds of each spell, and he can pick up spell tokens throughout the game by walking over them. Each token is good for a certain number of rounds, indicated by the number that appears onscreen when the token is picked up, with a limit of 99 rounds that Ronaan can carry. Combat Spells There are nine combat spells, all of varying effect and potency. Select combat spells from the spell matrix while in combat. The Basic Spell: (B) Ronaan is always equipped with the Basic Spell. It is the weakest combat spell, but its supply is inexhaustible. This spell serves as an automatic back-up spell when the currently selected spell runs out. Additional B tokens Ronaan picks up boosts the spell's power to rapid-fire mode for a limited number of shots (indicated by; the number above the B spell). In rapid-fire mode, the Basic Spell continues to fire while B is pressed (until there are no more rounds). When no number appears, the Basic Spell is in single-fire mode (one spell is cast each time you press B). The Lightning Spell: (L) The Lightning Spell's speed and range make it one of the handier combat spells. Though it's not terribly effective against high-level Generals, it does considerable damage to some lower-level ones. The Super Spell: (S) The Super Spell is one of the most powerful combat spells available. Though it doesn't move fast, one shot can strike multiple enemies if they're standing close together. Use it wisely. The Angle Spell: (A) The Angle Spell looks like a boomerang and bounces off walls and other solid objects. One drawback to the Angle Spell is that it moves slowly. The Angle Spell must be cast one round at a time (i.e. a second round cannot be cast until the first has disappeared). It's main advantage is that you can change its trajectory in mid-flight. * To change the Angle Spell's trajectory, D-Pad in the desired direction immediately after releasing the spell. The Time Bomb Spell: (T) The Time Bomb Spell is a highly specialized demolition spell. No other spell can destroy launch tubes, wall guns, and mobile launchers. Once you release a Time Bomb, you have three or four seconds to move Ronaan a few feet away and avoid the blast. This is the only spell that can hurt Ronaan or the bodyguard. The Mondo Major Spell: (M) The Mondo Major Spell blasts all the enemies on the screen simultaneously. It's a good idea to save Mondo Major Spells until you really need them, like when Ronaan is taking hits from all sides. The Hold Spell:(H) The Hold Spell freezes the enemy for a few seconds, allowing you to attack without fear of retaliation. Most enemies under the Hold Spell can be destroyed with a few blows from Ronaan's staff, which saves on combat spells. NOTE: The Hold Spell is ineffective against Generals and some enemies. The Wide Spell: (W) The Wide Spell shoots three fireballs in a wide trajectory. It is especially useful against large groups of enemies. The Death Spell: (D) The Death Spell moves slowly, but it destroys many enemies in one or two blows. As one of the stronger combat spells, it is a good one to save up for use against Generals. Non-Combat Spells There are four non-combat spells available to Ronaan. Each provides him (and frequently his bodyguard) with some means of protection, escape, or travel. The Heal Spell: (cross) The Heal Spell restores Ronaan's Life Meter (as well as the bodyguard's). It is especially useful for reviving a bodyguard who has been knocked unconscious. When a wounded bodyguard is left behind, he returns to The Camp and loses his ammunition. The Levitate Spell: (LV) The Levitate Spell raises Ronaan off the ground for several seconds, allowing you to move him in any direction using the D-Pad. Use the Levitate Spell to cross chasms and divides. NOTE: Chazz can teleport to Ronaan's location when he levitates; Farrg cannot. The Teleport Spell: (TE) When you cast the Teleport Spell, a teleport appears near Ronaan. The teleport takes Ronaan back to the camp. Back at the camp, his Life Meter (and that of the bodyguard) is recharged. Upon leaving the camp, Ronaan is returned to the beginning area of the level with his accomplishments intact. The Invulnerable Spell: (I) The Invulnerable Spell makes Ronaan invulnerable to attack for several seconds. Ronaan blinks while he's invulnerable and begins to flash rapidly just before the Invulnerable Spell wears off. TechnoClash Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text A Guide to the Outer Realm: Warning: The following section reveals hints some experienced gamers may not want to know! The following excerpts from the journal of Ronaan explain the goals for each level, along with some hints for completing them. While you don't have to read this section in order to play the game, you may find it helpful. Level 1-Las Vegas Casino From the journal of Ronaan: Having crossed through the portal, I have arrived in a land of much loud, bright, foul-smelling technology. I am alone but for Indar, my falcon. But I can't continue alone; I must find Abaris, Farrg, and Chazz. Through Indar's eyes, I can see that the way before me is thick with enemies. The Engine Man awaits me to the east--if only I can survive long enough to reach him! I'll save up my Death Spells and send him to meet his Creator, the Robot Lord. Beyond the Engine Man is a stairway. I can only hope it will lead me to my friends. Level 2-The Junkyard From the journal of Ronaan: The Engine Man is everywhere. Our camp is in the center of a vast wasteland littered with ruined machines and other refuse. Four gates surround us, and our enemies spring from them like water from some cursed fountain. We must find the cardkeys which will allow us to close each gate, then destroy every enemy within. Abaris warns me that we'll face stronger foes when that task is completed, and that more will certainly await us underground. Level 3-The Desert From the journal of Ronaan: The desert is a savage place, filled with more mechanical abominations than any place we've yet seen. Our goal is to open the door to the underground elevator--only then can we leave the desert. Abaris says we must enter each shack and touch each communication stalk to call forth the main elevator stalk. Each shack also houses a launch tube which spews forth deadly engine creatures--I may be able to slow their progress if I can find a way to destroy the launch tubes. Somewhere in the desert lies a cardkey which will open the underground elevator. It must be inserted into the main elevator stalk to facilitate our escape. According to Abaris, the main elevator is guarded by the strongest Engine Man we've encountered thus far. Level 4-The Underground City From the journal of Ronaan: We have arrived in the Underground City, and our search begins for the laboratory from which the Engine Man and his brothers have come. Using the cardkeys we find, we'll search every building until we find the lab. Will the Robot Lord himself await us there? I pray we're strong enough to find him, wherever he is. Level 5-Portal Cavern From the journal of Ronaan: The cavern is filled with guns that fire on us ceaselessly. Time Bomb spells may be the only thing that will stop them. There are three large generators from which our enemies pour by the dozens. Unlike the launch tubes we've encountered before, these seem to be invincible. I won't waste my precious spells on the generators. Abaris says I must touch the two communications stalks to disable Creator Stiles' protective field. The field protects us as well as him-he is certainly the mightiest enemy we have met on our journey. I only hope I have enough spells to vanquish him. Level 6-'Tween Place From the journal of Ronaan: We are near the end of our journey. Abaris calls this the 'Tween Place-not here, nor there. It is a mind-boggling labyrinth of portals. I must stay focused if I'm to find my way through; some portals take me to places I've been before, where all my slain foes are resurrected and waiting to greet me. Our goal is to reach the Final Cloud which is guarded by dozens of deadly robotic spiders. They protect a mysterious presence we must confront before we can go on. Level 7-Teg Temple From the journal of Ronaan: This is the Teg Temple, the place where our final battle will take place. A maze lies before us, even more intricate than the one we've just traversed. We must seal the portal once and for all, by moving the great stone blocks into the holds, all the while fighting the enemies that flow from yet more indestructible generators. This is the test that will tell whether the Inner Realm lives or dies. Will I emerge victorious and return to my home a hero, or a failure doomed to live out my days exiled to a world of machines?

Theme Park Electronic Arts To return to Now Playing, reset your adapter. CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME OPEN FOR BUSINESS INFORMATION SCREENS BROWSE HELP FILES Theme Park Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text As is usual with this kind of game, the aim of Theme Park is global domination. You must open a park on every one of the available sites around the world, and in the process establish yourself as planet Earth's premier Theme Park operator. Once a year you're given the option to sell your current park. You need to decide whether or not it's worth accepting the money on offer, or continue to build on the park's success and hopefully get an even higher asking price in twelve months time. There's a maximum size to which you can grow your park, with no more than 150 visitors allowed in at any one time and a ceiling on the number of rides which the park can hold. At this point you will not be able to add any more features to the park. Once you've achieved this limit, it's well worth considering selling up. NOTE: As the park fills up with people and facilities, the game slows down so that you can more easily keep an eye on all the activity. The money made from the sale of each park is then used to finance the purchase of another site, with enough cash left over to develop the next park. Only when you've turned all the dots on the World Map from a neutral blue to gold have you succeeded in your aim. Now that might sound easy enough, but if you think it's going to be a walk in the park, you couldn't be further from the truth. Success in the Theme Park business requires an awesome eye for detail. You need to fine tune every ride, shop and side-show for maximum profit margin. Don't forget to check on your finances regularly at the Bank Screen and listen to the Park Advisor's advice throughout the game, giving you hints on how to make the most of Theme Park. It's a roller-coaster ride of financial highs and lows, but whether you end up on top of the heap or taking a leap, you can bank on having a whole lot of fun!

Theme Park Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text Enter Name Screen: You must enter your name before you can choose a location for your park. To enter your name, use the D-Pad to move the cursor arrow around the letters grid and press A to select a letter; this appears in the name bar below. You can now repeat the process until the entire name has been entered. Press B to delete incorrect letters. Next, move the D-Pad down to the three options below the name bar. They are: * Start Level: Press A to choose between Easy, Medium, and Hard. This alters the amount of money you begin the game with. On Easy level, 200,000 is deposited in your current account. On the Medium level, 150,000 is added to your coffers, while on Hard level you've a mere 100,000 to play with. * Park Visitors: Choose a mood from Happy, Normal, or Fussy by pressing A. The fussier your customers are, the harder it is to part them from their cash. This only affects your Theme Park's visitors for the first four years of operation, after which it's all up to you. * Opponents Level: This decides how aggressive your opponents are. Press A to choose between Easy, Medium, and Hard. You can make life a lot simpler if you hamper the opposition and make them Easy. When you're ready to leave the Enter Name screen, either press Start or D-Pad to highlight the Tick icon and then press A. You arrive at the World Map screen. At the World Map screen you decide where in the world to locate your Theme Park. All the available sites are marked in blue, red dots mark locations you currently can't afford and gold dots show where you've already established a successful park. If this is your first game, the only available location is the United Kingdom. Beneath the map your name is displayed, along with your bank balance and the name of the currently selected location. Move the D-Pad up, down, left, or right to highlight a location with the cursor and then press A to display the Site Details. The Site Details include: * Cost: How big a bite of your bank balance is this location going to take? * Difficulty: Easy, Medium, or Hard, based on the size of the population able to access the park, the stability of the economy, and the climate. Sites close to large European or North American cities are an easier proposition than those in more remote locations, but they are also more expensive. So when choosing a location, make certain you've enough cash left to develop it and haven't blown the lot beforehand. The cheaper the site, the more you need to spend to make it a success. * Local Population: The number of potential customers that your Theme Park has to draw from in the early stages. * Medium Population: A medium-sized park attracts visitors from further afield. * Long Population: When your park has grown in size and reputation, the number of potential customers grows to the figure found here. * Inflation Rate (0-100 percent): The lower the better, because an inflation rate of 100 percent means that your overheads will double annually. * Interest Rate (0-100 percent): The lower this rate, the less interest you pay on your bank loan. * Economy: Rich, Poor, or Medium. This indicates how much disposable income your customers have to spend in the park; the weaker the economy, the less cash there is. * Tax Free Period Years: The length of time you can run your park without paying land tax. * Land Tax: The amount you pay is calculated by applying this rate to the area of land your park occupies, so keep it compact and pay less tax. * Weather: The more temperate the conditions, the easier it is to attract visitors. * Terrain: The type of land you're building on. * Who: The name of the park's owner. To remove the Site Details and look at another site, press A again. When you find a site you're happy with (and can afford), press Start to buy the land and you're instantly transported to the Park Screen. The Park Screen: On the Park Screen your chosen site is an area of land with a wall around it and a main gate. You've a lot of work to do before it's the world's ultimate tourist attraction. Using the Icons Menu: Press Start to access the Icons Menu. This is the key to creating your Theme Park. The icons are for: paths, queues, rides, shops, park features, staff, main menu, query, park status and the bank screen. To select an icon, use the D-Pad up, down, left, or right to highlight it and then either press A for the Purchaser screen (where applicable), or press B for the Quick Menu. NOTE: After selecting an icon you need to press Start again to re-open the Icons Menu. Laying Paths: Before you can do anything else, you must lay paths around the park for visitors to walk along. This is the only way customers can access shops and rides. Like everything else in Theme Park, paths cost money, so in the early stages when cash is tight you need to be sensible and place paths only where rides and shops are going. NOTE: You cannot lay a path where natural obstacles such as rocks or water block the way. To lay a path, use the D-Pad to highlight the Paths icon and press A; the cursor becomes a trowel. Now hold down A and scroll around the park using the D-Pad. To remove paths, highlight a section of path with the trowel and press B. You cannot delete the original area of path from around the main gate. NOTE: Paths are the only item you pay for immediately. You won't get the cost of any ride, shop, or staff purchases deducted from your budget until a month has passed. The Paths Menu: To access the Paths Menu, use the D-Pad to highlight the Paths icon and press B. You can now choose between concrete, one-way paths, or sign-posts. Move the D-Pad left/right to highlight the desired icon and then press A. One-Way Paths: To lay a one-way path, use the D-Pad to highlight a path square and then press A repeatedly until the arrow is oriented in your preferred direction. Sign-Posts: Select the sign-post icon from the Paths Menu and the icon attaches itself to the cursor. To give the sign a sense of direction, highlight the entrance of the shop or ride to which you want the sign to point with the D-Pad and press A. Now move the post to the desired position on a path and place it by pressing A again; whenever it's placed, the sign points to the chosen amenity. Press A again to rotate the sign and lead customers to a destination via a different route, so as to pass additional shops and rides they might otherwise have missed. NOTE: Remember to re-select normal paths from the Paths Menu after selecting one-way or sign-posts. Forming Queues: The thrill-hungry public are unable to sample the delights of a ride unless they can form an orderly queue for it. Customers can still access a ride which isn't connected to a path by a queue, but they do so only one at a time and the ride is not used to maximum efficiency. * To form a queue, use the D-Pad to highlight the Queue icon and press A. Now connect the entrance of your chosen ride to the path. Queues can be placed or removed just as you would a path; hold down A and D-Pad around the screen to place a queue, highlight and press B to remove a section of the queue. NOTE: A queue must always be placed between a path and the entrance to a ride. Selecting Rides: Only four of Theme Park's rides are available at the start of the game. There are two ways to purchase rides: via the Rides Purchaser screen or from the Rides Menu. NOTE: Just to make things trickier, some sites may only offer you three rides to begin with. * To purchase rides, use the D-Pad to highlight the Rides icon and press A for the Rides Purchaser and some in-depth information about the attractions currently available to you. Alternatively, highlight the Rides icon and press B for the Rides Menu. use the D-Pad to highlight an item from this menu and press A to select a ride. Each one has a price tag; if you don't have enough cash for a particular ride, the cursor turns red. Having made your decision, the Rides Menu disappears, leaving the chosen attraction attached to the cursor. * To place a ride, use the D-Pad to move to an area of the park large enough to accommodate it and then press A. If there isn't enough room in the area you've selected, an electronic burp lets you know. Now you have to place the ride's Entrance and Exit. * To remove a ride, use the D-Pad to position the cursor over the ride's entrance and press B; a requester box appears asking you to confirm your decision. Highlight the tick icon and press A to remove the ride. If the ride is less than a month old, its purchase price isn't deducted from your bank balance. To return to the park screen without deleting the ride, highlight the X icon and press A. Placing the Entrance and Exit: Once a ride has been positioned, the Entrance icon appears. Move the D-Pad up, down, left, or right to move the Entrance around the ride, and then press A to lock it in place. NOTE: You can move the Entrance again by choosing the appropriate icon from the Ride Information screen. The Exit icon is a short flight of steps. Place this as you did the Entrance. Remember to link every Exit to a path, or when your attendees leave the ride they mill around on the grass. Buying Shops: While it's the thrill rides that draw in the crowds you need to keep your visitors happy (and earn extra bucks) by supplying refreshments, and entice them into going home with some Theme Park souvenirs. There are also various side-shows available to you, which can be nice little earners if properly managed. NOTE: Food and drink stands are essential to the running of your park, as people head for home if they can't get a drink and a bite to eat. However, souvenir shops and side-shows can turn you the healthiest profit. Visitors only buy souvenirs if they're having a good time, so place souvenir shops next to your park's best rides and watch the money roll in. * To purchase a shop, use the D-Pad to highlight the Shop icon and press A for the Shops Purchaser screen and an in-depth look at the available shops. Alternatively, press B for the Shops Menu. Use the D-Pad to highlight a shop from the menu and then press A to select it. Each one has a price tag; if you can't afford the chosen shop the cursor turns red. Having made your selection, the Shops Menu disappears leaving you to place the shop where it's likely to attract the most business. Use the D-Pad to position the shop, and then press A. Park Features: What with Most Pleasant Park among the categories on which your Theme Park is judged, it's a good idea to beautify the place with trees and fountains. Plus, the park won't stay beautiful for long without proper toilet facilities and clear signposts showing people where they are. * To purchase park features, use the D-Pad to highlight the Park Features icon, and then press A for the Features Purchaser screen. Alternatively, press B for the Features Menu. highlight an item from this menu using the D-Pad, and then press A. On the Park Screen use the D-Pad to choose a location and press A once for every tree you want to plant. If you're putting up a fence, press and hold A, then use the D-Pad to scroll through the park. To remove any feature placed in error, highlight the offending item using the D-Pad and then press B. Toilet Training: With all the food and drink you (hope to) sell, visitors are going to need somewhere they can off load any excess. Forget to place toilets around your Theme Park and things are going to either get very messy, or visitors will head for home the moment nature calls. The only lavatory available from the Park Features list at first is an old, wooden outhouse; not the nicest place in the world to park your backside. Customers are rather tentative about using these, and a queue forms outside while the occupant gingerly places a protective layer of lavatory paper between flesh and toilet seat. Woe betide the Theme Park owner who forgets to have these toilets cleaned. It isn't long before an outhouse, with its dodgy drainage and doubtful flushing mechanism, stinks to high Heaven. And if placed upwind of the queasy stomachs that often emerge from the more thrilling of thrill rides, it's a recipe for disaster. First, one attendee loses his lunch and then a chain chunder rips through the crowd like wildfire. Before long your park's going to be about as popular as a bottle of barbecue sauce at the Three Little Pig's house. You can, of course, combat this by keeping outhouses properly maintained. Send handymen to clean them regularly, and should the worst happen, and the vomit begin to flow, make sure there are plenty of staff to mop it up. Inject some cash into research and soon your customers are relaxing on the luxurious, hi-tech Super Toilet. This self-cleaning lavatory is so sophisticated it does everything but sing like Noel Coward to the occupant. Far from throwing up, customers are more likely to move in. Hiring Staff: There's no way you can offer the levels of service and satisfaction that your paying customers expect without staff. You can hire entertainers, handymen, mechanics, and guards. Each have specific duties, but they're all there to help things run smoothly. * To hire staff, use the D-Pad to highlight the Staff icon, and then press A for the Staff Purchaser screen. Otherwise, press B for the Staff Menu. Highlight a staff category from this menu using the D-Pad and then press A. On the Park Screen, use the D-Pad to choose a location and press A once for every member of staff you want to hire. NOTE: Remember that staff are an ongoing expense; the figure next to each category represents their monthly wage. Main Menu: To return to the Main Menu at any time during the game, simply highlight this icon and press A. NOTE: You cannot continue the game within the first month of the park opening. Query Icon: Access the Information screens by activating the Query Icon. Use the D-Pad to select the icon and press A; the cursor becomes a question mark and the Icons Menu closes. Now D-Pad to any ride, shop, member of staff or customer and press A for the Info screen. An arrow appears by any customer or staff member to indicate that they're being queried. Now press Start to open the Icons Menu. The Tune-Up Bar is active and the name of the queried item appears above it. * To open the information screen, use the D-Pad to select the Information icon in the Tune-Up Bar and press A. Park Status Icon: The Park Status icon's smiley face reflects the mood of the park visitors. The bar next to the icon is divided into two portions. The upper portion shows the volume of customers currently in the park, while the thinner yellow bar below displays the number of people on the incoming bus. Bank Icon: This constantly displays your current bank balance, but if you're short on cash and want to get a bank loan or you're interested in the current state of the Theme Park's finances, you can highlight this icon and then press A to access the Bank Screen. Theme Park Open For Business Use Up/Down to scroll text Open For Business: When your rides, shops, and other amenities are ready and you want to start making some money, open the park and let the people flood in. Don't just open as soon as you've laid the first path. It might seem an attractive proposition to start earning money immediately, but you only end up chasing after visitors and hurriedly providing facilities for them. * To open and close your Theme Park, hold down Start and then press C. Alternatively, move the cursor over the park entrance and then press A. PEOPLE IN THE PARK The people that swarm around your Theme Park are divided into two basic groups: staff and customers. There's one vital difference between the two-you pay the former, while the latter pay you. Staff: Staff are divided into four categories: entertainers, handymen, mechanics and guards. The more your staff are paid, the more enthusiastically they work for you, so the worst member of staff is always the cheapest. If you want your park to be the best, don't be a cheapskate when it comes to hiring staff. * To cycle through each member of staff, press Start to open the Icons Menu, highlight the Staff icon, and press B. Entertainers: These clowns are paid to keep the customers smiling. The more entertainers you have, the more enjoyment customers get from their visit-kids especially love them. Handymen: These are the guys who keep the park tidy. If you're after the most attractive park award, they mow the grass, and keep the place from being labeled a health hazard by picking up burger wrappers, cola cups, and other assorted litter. Crucially, handymen also keep the toilets spick-and-span and fit for human occupation. NOTE: Handymen sometimes gather together on one side of the park for an impromptu chin-wag. Use the pincer icon to relocate them anywhere in the park. Mechanics: When a ride malfunctions, it's going to become a danger unless there's a mechanic to fix it. They are responsible for maintenance of all the rides, and cordon off any sub-standard attraction before setting to work fixing it. Fail to have enough mechanics and your park soon gets a reputation for unreliability, damaging visitor numbers and gate receipts. Mechanics can be difficult to motivate into responding quickly and are often at the center of any industrial dispute, but they're essential to the smooth running of your Theme Park. * To repair a ride: Query a mechanic and use the D-Pad to highlight the Repair icon from the Tune-Up Menu; press A and the cursor becomes a wrench. Now D-Pad to the broken ride and press A; watch as a highly-skilled mechanic rushes to repair it. You can also Query the ride itself, and then select the Wrench icon from the Tune-Up Menu. It's extremely important to look after your rides. If the worst happens and one actually explodes, not only are the people using it send into low orbit (and after that, they're likely to sue), but land damaged by the exploding ride cannot be built on again. Guards: You may think everything is going to be sweetness and light in your Theme Park, but think again. If you're lucky enough to be so successful that customers pour in, you're going to need someone to take care of crowd control and redirecting lost visitors onto the right path If you're unlucky and attract the wrong crowd, these are the guys responsible for forcibly removing troublemakers from the premises. Customers: The whole point of all this effort is to attract as many customers to your park as possible, and to make sure that they're having such a good time they don't notice how much money they are spending. Customers come in all shapes and sizes, but you can alter the age range of the people attracted to your Theme Park. The bigger and faster the thrill rides, the more youngsters are going to appear. If you make the rides too death-defying, a rabble of thrill hungry bikers could move in. On the other hand, if the rides are more sedate you begin to notice white hair and walking frames among the park's visitors. Thugs: When you see a bike load of heavies heading for the park, prepare for a rough ride. They do everything possible to ruin the day for the rest of your customers. They pop balloons, steal food, beat up entertainers and smash rides. Leave them too long and they get in touch with their pals and before you know it, the park is overrun. The only way to rid the park of this nuisance once it's arrived to hire some guards to forcibly eject the troublemakers. However, it's no use just stationing guards at the park entrance as thugs can only be thrown out once they have committed an offense Thugs are attracted to parks with a bad reputation for cleanliness and no guards, so to avoid problems with them keep your park up to scratch. ADVANCED THEME PARK: Once you've placed a few rides and mastered the basics, it is time to start thinking a little more deeply about this classic game. Use the Purchaser screens to choose which rides, shops, and staff to cough up for with more consideration. Purchaser Screens: There are Purchasers Screens for Rides, Shops, Staff, and Park Features. Press START to bring up the Icon Menu and then use the D-Pad to highlight the relevant icon. Now press A to bring up the Purchaser Screen. To scroll through the available rides, use the D-Pad to highlight the scroll icons and press A. The Ride Purchaser: This tells you: Ride Name, Ride Excitement and the following: * Reliability- the less reliable the ride the more often it's going to be shut down for repairs. * Maximum Capacity- the more potential users, the shorter the period spent queuing and the happier your customers are kept. * Cost- anything from 2,000 to 200,000. The cost of a ride is deducted at the month end, so if you change your mind and remove a ride before a month is up, you don't have to pay. * X-Icon- return to Park Screen without picking the selected ride. * Tick Icon- returns you to the Park Screen with the chosen ride attached to the pointer. Shop and Side-Show Purchaser: This contains much the same information as the Ride Purchaser and is operated in exactly the same way. However, it has different categories of information: * Name of shop or side-show. * Type of goods- burgers from the burger stand, fries from the fries stand, novelties from the novelty shop. Get the idea? * Stock Price- the cost to you of the stock held by the shop. * Sale Price- the price at which you sell stock to the public. The difference between these two is your profit margin. If the highlighted shop is a side-show, the Type of Goods category is replaced by Addictiveness, the Sale Price category shows the Price per Game and the Stock Price is replaced by Cost of Prize. * Cost- what the shop or side-show will cost you to open in the first place. Side-Shows: If you're not careful you could end up paying through the nose for your side-shows. But in the finest traditions of showmanship, you can also cheat and turn them into nice little earners. To do this, reduce the probability of a participant winning at the Information screen. This increases the amount of glue keeping the coconuts in their shy, and adds a few nails to the bottom of the ducks in the duck shoot. Staff Purchaser: Along with a brief description, the cost to hire is displayed here. Seems cheap? Well, this is also his monthly wage! The Staff Purchaser screen gives you: Name of Staff Category, Number in Park, Enthusiasm, Cost to Hire, and Monthly Wage. Features Purchaser: This only categorizes Park Features according to the different costs involved. Tune-Up Bar: Query a ride, shop, member of staff, or customer to activate the Tune-Up Bar. This appears at the bottom of the Icons Menu, above the name of the queried object. The Ride Tune-Up Bar contains: * Rider Icon- adjust the number of riders you can cram onto a ride before it starts. Highlight the icon using the D-Pad. Then, press A to increase the number of people on the ride, or press B to decrease the numbers when safety levels are being exceeded. You can't exceed the ride's maximum capacity as set down on the Rider Purchaser screen. * Timer- the stop watch icon is filled in yellow. Highlight the icon with the D-Pad and press B repeatedly to reduce the length of the ride; press A to increase the length. * Information- This is the only Tune-Up icon for shops and the only one common to rides, shops, and staff. Use the D-Pad to select this icon and Press A. This will bring you to the relevant Information screen and give you some vital facts about the status of any park utility. * Wrench icon- indicates how safe the ride is. The higher the yellow bar, the more dangerous the ride. The state of repair of a ride is also affected by the numbers using it and the ride speed. To instruct a mechanic to repair the ride, highlight this icon and press A. * On/Off- turn a ride on or off by highlighting this and pressing A. The light turns from yellow to black when a ride has been stopped. The light is replaced by a mechanic's head during repair. * Ride Speed- pressing B increases the revolutions per minute of your rides. If things become a little too exciting for the ride users, retard the speed by pressing A. Changes to ride speed take immediate effect on the Park Screen. Staff Tune-Up Bar: * Pincer Icon- with this icon highlighted, press A and the cursor becomes a set of pincers with the queried staff member attached. You can now reposition them anywhere in the park by pressing A. * Information- Use the D-Pad to select this icon and press A for the relevant information screen. * Repair icon- FOR MECHANICS ONLY. Press A on this icon and then D-Pad to highlight a ride in need of some attention. Press A again to send the queried mechanic to work. A plume of smoke indicates when a ride is on its last legs. If you don't respond quickly enough, you could send some innocent riders into orbit - there ain't no smoke without fire! User-Definable Rides: These are rides which you get to design for yourself, rather than just placing in the Theme Park. They include the Roller Coaster, Monorail, Rubber Tubing and Race Car rides. They are defined using slightly different methods: * To create a rubber Tubing or Race Car ride, use the D-Pad to highlight the ride icon from the Quick Menu and press A. The menu screen closes and the first section of the ride is attached to the cursor. Now scroll around the park and lay out the ride as if you were laying a path. Create hairpin bends or gentle curves as you see fit until you have a complete circuit. Remove any rogue pieces of track that are heading the wrong direction by pressing B. * To create a Roller-Coaster or Monorail, access the ride icon as above. When placing the track, however, the D-Pad scrolls along by bigger increments. This is because the individual sections of track are much larger than those of the Rubber Tubing and Race Car rides. To lay a complete loop, hold down A and scroll in the direction you require, dragging the track behind you. Press B to delete any offending pieces of track. To add humps, dips, and loops to your circuit, press C to cycle through the menu of available track. Delete the existing piece of track and then press A to add the modification. NOTE: The bigger the track and the more humps, loops, and dips you have the more it costs - but the more exciting it is for your customers. The Ticket Booth: The Entrance and Exit of User-Definable rides differs from conventional rides, resembling a ticket booth. To access the booth you must first complete a circuit of the ride. Now press START to re-open the Icons Menu and D-Pad to the Ride icon. Press A and the Purchaser screen opens. Press A again and instead of the ride's icon, the ticket booth becomes attached to the cursor. Place this adjoining any horizontal length of tubing/track by pressing A. If you attempt to put the booth in the wrong place, an electronic burp tells you to try again. NOTE: When connecting any User-Definable ride to the paths network, it's important to remember that the entrance to the ride is on the left and the exit is on the right. You don't want people walking into one another as they try to get on and off your new star attraction! Ride Cost: The cost of User-Definable rides is calculated according to the number of sections of track used to complete the circuit; make sure you have enough budget to cover it. Only when you open the ride to the public is the final price fixed. Theme Park Information Screens Use Up/Down to scroll text Information Screens Select the Information icon from the Tune-Up Menu with the D-Pad and then press A; the relevant Information Screen appears. There are Information Screens for all rides, shops, the various toilets, staff, and customers. Ride Information Screen: The categories of information available are: * Ride Cost: The amount you have to cough up to buy the ride. * People Been On Ride: The total number of park visitors who've used the ride. * Excitement: A thrill or a bore? Here's where you find out the score. * Reliability: Assess how much work you can get from a ride before it needs repair. * Capacity: Increase this by highlighting the scroll arrows and pressing A. * Move Entrance Icon: Reposition the entrance to a ride by selecting this icon and pressing A. The view returns to the Park Screen, where you can more effectively place the ride's entrance and exit. * Tick Icon: Press A here and it's back to the Park Screen. Shop Information Screen: At the Shop Information screen you can find out: * Type of goods sold: To be frank, it should be pretty obvious from the name of the shop. * Customers so far: Just how popular are those burgers, fries, novelties, etc. * Stock price: When you still have some stock, the two figures tell you the number of items and what each cost you. * Sale price: Raise or lower the cost to the consumer by highlighting the raise or lower icon and pressing A. Food shops also have a unique category which allows you to alter food quality in the quest for greater profits. Use the raise or lower icons and press A to adjust the following: * Big Time Burger: Increase the amount of fat in the burgers to reduce your costs. As the burgers are less filling, you might benefit from repeat purchases, or customers might find them so revolting they'll refuse to buy another on principle. * Big Time Fries: Pour extra salt onto fries to improve drink sales. * Pokey Cola: More ice means less cola in the carton, and lower overheads. * Mr. Walley Ices: Increase the amount of sugar in the ice cream to get the kids coming back for more. * Coffee shop: Hike up the amount of caffeine in your coffee to give drinkers energy and get them moving around your Theme Park more quickly. * X icon: Return to the Park Screen without taking into account any adjustments. * Tick icon: Return to the Park Screen with adjustments intact. Side-show Information Screen: Side-shows have separate categories of information: * Addictiveness: Will the players keep coming back for more? Find out here. * Wins/players: The ratio of prize winners from those who have played. * Chance of win: Press A to increase or decrease the chances of a win. * Cost of prize: Combine with the chance factor, and decide between lots of little wins or a few big wins. Press A to adjust this figure. * Price per game: A really addictive side-show can be a nice little earner, especially if you raise the price to an unacceptable level. Press A to adjust the price. Staff Information Screen: The categories of information available here are: * Months employed: How long has this dead-beat been on the payroll? * Rides fixed: For the mechanic only. * Time working. * People seen: For the entertainer only. * People entertained: For the entertainer only. * Monthly wage: Adjust this by pressing A. NOTE: You can't decrease wages below the minimum amount. * You're Fired icon: Show ineffectual workers the door, and give them a helping boot through it by selecting this icon and pressing A. * X icon: Return to the Park Screen, ignoring any adjustments that you might have made. * Tick icon: Use this icon to return to the Park Screen, where all adjustments take immediate effect. Customer Information Screen: At the top of the screen is the (often unflattering) customer name. The information available on each customer is as follows: * Time spent in park: Hours, minutes, or days? The longer, the better. * Rides been on: If the number's low, it's because the rides are too full or difficult to get to. * Boredom: This is key. If there's one place on Earth you expect to be wide-eyed with excitement, it's a Theme Park. If your customer's aren't, it's time to act. * Money remaining: Customers can arrive with up to $2,000 burning a hole in their pocket. Don't let them leave with much of it remaining. * Tick icon: Press A here to return to the Park Screen. NOTE: When you query a customer and they still have plenty of cash left, respond to their immediate thoughts and milk them of every penny. Thought Bubbles: A good Theme Park operator responds to his customers' needs-it's only good business. Visitors to your park give signals to show their level of satisfaction or frustration. If they're AOK, you'll see it in a hand signal. One signal to pay close attention to is a tapping foot. This is a clear sign that they're not being entertained-and after all, entertainment is what they've come for. Build some new rides, beef up the ones you already have, but do something before bad word of mouth destroys attendance figures and your park's reputation. Negotiation Screens: Occasionally throughout the game either of the two Negotiation Screens appear. You must negotiate with staff to settle industrial disputes, and with suppliers to decide the cost of stock. These negotiations occur when the Negotiation screen appears. The more staff and shops you have, the more regularly you need to enter into negotiations for goods and services. Staff Negotiations: You sit on the left, across the table from the Staff Union organizer. You both need to shake hands over a new pay deal, tentatively extending a hand as you talk. You need to come to an agreement before the biscuits run out. Otherwise the negotiations fail, putting the success of your Theme Park in jeopardy. To raise your offer: As the seconds tick rapidly away, press the D-Pad left or right to raise or lower your offer as you see fit. NOTE: Don't raise your offer too quickly or by too much. The Union man can smell fear on you like cheap aftershave and won't drop the workers' pay demands a single penny. Take it slow and don't lose your head. Make, Break, or Strike If you're bargaining is successful, an onscreen message informs you how much the union took you for, and the new monthly wage figure for each category of worker. Press A to return to the Park Screen. If you fail to make a settlement, the Negotiations Failed message appears. The action returns to the Park Screen where your staff leave en masse via the main gate and picket anyone attempting to enter. It's not the best publicity for your park, and when a ride malfuntions or the litter mounts up you're going to start losing money hand over fist. Far better to make a wage settlement while you can. Goods Negotiations: Goods Negotiations are performed in exactly the same way as Staff Negotiations and the penalties for failing to make a deal are just as severe. Unless both parties leave the table happy before the biscuits have all been dunked and munched, there are no more goods delivered to your Theme Park's shops! NOTE: Every time you fail in your negotiations, the asking price for goods goes up by 10 percent. Selling Up: At the end of each financial year you're given the opportunity to sell your Theme Park. If you're so proud of your current enterprise that you don't want to sell, or if you think that there's more money to be milked from it, use the D-Pad to select the X icon and press A. The action returns to the park. If the price offered is adequate, use the D-Pad to select the Tick icon and press A. The park is now auctioned, so there's no turning back. The final sale price will (hopefully) increase drastically from the minimum asking price before the hammer falls. NOTE: After the auction you're given a password; write this down and keep it safe, as it's the only way of continuing your Theme Park building program at a later date. If you choose to accept the price, but it isn't enough to finance a new park, you're told as much. Acknowledge this by pressing A and the action returns to the current park. The Bank Screen: Regular visits to the Bank screen, however daunting, are essential to the effective financial control of the Theme Park. Use the D-Pad to select the Bank icon from the Icon Menu and press A for the Bank Requester screen. The graph shows your park's bank balance, based on overheads against income. Listed on the left are the categories of financial performance. Use the D-Pad to highlight a category and press A to add information to the graph. A colored dot corresponding to the color of the line on the graph appears beside each category on display. Press A again to remove information. Beneath the graph are listed: * Available cash: The money you have instantly available for new rides, shops and staff. * Park Value: The market worth of your Theme Park once the current price of all the shares has been evaluated. When you begin Theme Park this figure (not surprisingly) is zero. * Current Loan: Highlight the scroll arrows with the D-Pad. You can then increase or decrease the size of your loan by pressing A. * Research/Month: You are able to invest up to 2,500 each month in researching new rides, shops and park features. When research on a new amenity has been completed, a light bulb flashes next to the date to let you know. Increase and decrease this figure as you did the loan. NOTE: It is important to invest money in research at the beginning of the game in order to have more rides, shops, and features to access earlier in the game. * Ticket Price: The mainstay of your park's profitability. Adjust this up or down by highlighting the appropriate scroll icon and pressing A. Year End Charts: The Overall chart appears at the end of every financial year, allowing you to see how your park has done during the year. The top ten parks are ranked, but you must achieve the overall number 1 position to succeed in building the world's ultimate tourist attraction. When you've seen enough, select the Tick icon and press A for the Year End Details screen. Alternatively, select the Ratings icon and press A for a look at the Ratings Chart. Ratings Chart: On the Rating Chart your Theme Park is compared with every other in the following categories: Richest, Exciting, Amenities, Satisfaction, Biggest, Pleasant. Study the position of your park in all six to find out where it's deficiencies lie and how you can improve your Overall position. Select the Chart icon and press A to return to the Overall chart. Select the Tick icon and press A to go to the Year End Details screen. Year End Details Screen: The Year End screen informs you of your Theme Park's results over the last two financial years in the following categories: Park Value, Bank Balance, Loan, Maximum Loan, Takings, Expenses, and Land Tax. At the end of each financial year you are given the option to buy out your land from the country's government. If you choose to do so, you will not have land tax deducted from your balance after the tax free years come to an end. Use the D-Pad to select the Tick icon, and press A to initiate this. If the park value is sufficient, you're given the option of selling it off at Auction. Use the D-Pad to select the Auction box and press A to initiate this. When you've finished at the Year End Details screen, press A to return to the Park Screen. Bankruptcy: When the value of all the shares and stock in your park won't cover the cost of loans, any interest you owe, debts to the bank and the 20,000 pound leeway you're given, you are legally declared bankrupt. The park has to close, your life's work collapses around you, and there's only one honorable way out. It's a long way down. NOTE: You're given a year's notice before you go bankrupt, but from there it's a very difficult job to turn your park's fortune's around.

GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES The Ooze Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text THE OOZE IS BORN Dr. Caine, research scientist, was becoming very suspicious of certain behind-the-scenes research at The Corporation. After the plant shut down one evening, he decided to surf through The Corporation's databases. By hacking into one after another of the classified documents, he discovered the awful truth... The Corporation had succeeded in developing a hybrid plague, a disease so dangerous and fast-spreading, it could wipe out humanity in just a few days! Only The Corporation held the cure. They planned to unleash this pestilence in water supplies around the globe, infecting the entire planet at a single blow. Then, they would extort billions of dollars from world governments to supply the cure! The Ooze Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text Start: * Pause/Resume play Button A: * Punch Button B * Spit Button C: * No action D-Pad: * Move the Ooze in all directions, aim punches and spit attacks The Ooze Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text GAINING AND LOSING OOZE Everything depends on ooze. Caine needs it to stay healthy. The more ooze he has, the better he can fight. The Corporation is full of tormented mutant creatures who have been twisted and deformed by toxic pollution. Biologic enemies like slugs, rats and disembodied brains give up a blob of ooze when defeated. Always collect these ooze droppings. Each one increases Caine's size. The bigger he is, the more hits he can take without shriveling away. There's a downside to being big. Caine loses a spot of ooze whenever he takes a hit. He's always a moving target, so the larger he is, the easier he is to hit, and the more apt he is to get ripped in half by tanks, flame vents and other diabolical devices. When the Ooze takes a shot directly to his head, he loses a life. He can also lose a life if he gets too small; then, he just peters away. He starts with only 3 lives, so losing a life is not good. In addition, you have to start the round over, or at a waypoint if you've passed one. When all the lives are used up, the game ends and The Corporation spreads its evil plague all over the world! OOZE MOVES Spreading Ooze Around: * Move the Ooze by pressing the D-Pad in the direction you want to go. * Ooze's head leads, so if it seems that the Ooze is bumping into something instead of going around it, use the D-Pad to turn him, and then continue in the direction. Punching: * The punch is the Ooze's basic attack. It is an extension of his body. Punches can be short-range or long-range attacks. * Tap the Punch button(default Button A) + the D-Pad in the direction of a foe for a quick, powerful sock to the enemy's solar plexus. * You can control a punch to go around corners, protecting Ooze's head from attack. Hold down the Punch button while guiding the punch with the D-Pad. The longer you hold down the Punch button, the longer your reach will be. Also, the more Ooze you have, the further you can punch. Spitting * Hitting your target with a long-range spit wad does twice the amount of damage as a punch. Spit a Hocker of Death by aiming with the D-Pad and tapping the Spit button(default Button B). * The Ooze loses a piece of himself every time he spits. Keep him healthy by picking up ooze wads from defeated enemies. * If the Ooze is too small, he won't be able to spit. * The Ooze can't spit while being damaged by enemy attacks. Flipping Levers * Flip levers by punching them or flowing around them. * Levers open doors and turn off destructive machines. POWER-UPS Extra Ooze Ooze keeps you healthy. The more ooze you have, the further the Ooze can punch. Speed Go fast. The Ooze turns yellow while he's speedy, orange when the power is running out, and back to green when it's over. Industrial Strength Toxin Defeat organic creatures just by touching them. The Ooze turns red while the power lasts, black when the power is running out, and back to green when it's over. Extra Life More chances to win. DNA Helix Collect all 50 helixes in The Corporation and Caine will regain his humanity. Waypoint Pass one of these, and you'll restart here after losing a life, instead of at the beginning of the round. THE CORPORATION Toxic Dump Practice your punch on mutant snails while enjoying the screams of pyro-thugs. Remember, the Ooze seeks his own level. Waste Plant Toxic gas nozzles can waste you in a second, so protect your head. The Ooze doesn't mix well with radioactive sludge. Play broken pipes to your advantage! Genetics Lab Get here by crawling out of a potty. This is where all those bio-freak mutants are made. Time to flush 'em all. Don't snack on the bombs! Power Core Run, er...ooze, through a gauntlet of sentries and tricky switches to conquer the Director's reactor. Sizzling electro-fields, shockbots and ball lightning make you spitting mad!

Don't go down the drain by slipping off ramps, or letting the Ooze get sucked down on incline. Especially don't let his head go down the drain or it'll cost you a life. * Learn to control your punch and guide it around corners. You'll definitely need this skill in the later rounds. * Protect your head! * Explore everything. Sometimes a discovery can make life, such as it is, easier. * Find the bonus rounds, where the Ooze can catch the lab's mutant rabbits to get more ooze. * Keep your eyes open for road signs signaling extremely dangerous areas, such as pools of poison or laser fields. * You don't have to collect all the DNA helixes to win the game, but it's more fun if you do. * Collect power-ups, including Life caps, that can make your life easier.

Press the D-Pad up or down to select Soccer, Basketball, Story or Options. Press left and right to select Subgame. After highlighting your selection, press either the A or C button. Press the B Button to cancel the selection. Soccer: The soccer team consists of three players and one goalkeeper (GK). You can set the game time in the Options mode between two and five minutes per half. If the game ends in a tie during regular play, the teams shoot penalty kicks (PK). You will continue with the PKs until one person is the victor. Basketball: The basketball team consists of three players. You can set the game time in the Options mode between two to five minutes per quarter. Both the ball and players can be called for going out of bounds. The 24-second shot clock rule also applies. No fouls, however, are called. If there's no winner when time runs out, the game will be extended until one team is the victor. Story Mode: Each of the games and subgames follows its own exciting story line. Acme Looniversity is holding soccer and basketball tournaments to select members for an All-Star team. Buster has gathered his friends and headed for the stadium. Naturally, arch enemy Montana Max is also slotted to play. Team Member Selection: Select your team for soccer and basketball from 12 Tiny Toon Adventures characters. Select your team members by moving the D-Pad left and right. Move the button up and down to select their playing positions and then press the A or C Button. Press the B Button to cancel your selection. To select team members when there are three or four players, then 1P and 3P are the team captains. These players will pick the team members in 1P/2P VS 3P, or 1P/2P VS 3P/4P games. When playing against the computer, select your team before selecting the computer team. Also, select team members before soccer and basketball games in the Story mode. Although the selection process is the same as above, you are limited to the four characters Buster, Babs, Plucky and Hamton. In this mode, the computer team is pre-selected. Fields of Daydreams: After you have selected soccer or basketball team members, select the game venue by pressing the D-Button on 1P's D-Pad up and down and then pressing the A or C Button. * Stadium: A regular stadium with no particular traps or devices. * Western: If you get too close to the horse in the corner of the field, you'll get kicked. Also, barrels will roll out at you in this stage. * Forest: Thorny bushes may cause you to trip and fall down. * Downtown: Don't slip on spilled oil! * Montana Max Playroom: Hit the toy train or car, you'll go flying! Also, a scoring wheel determines how many points are awarded for each basket. Special Techniques & Aces: Each character has a Special Technique and a surefire power shot--an "Ace", but you must gain the Ace Power to use them. As you use these techniques and shots, your Ace Power decreases. When the red portion of the power gauge is almost full and your character begins sweating, you won't be able to use the Special Techniques and Aces. When your Ace Power is completely gone, your character passes out. Ace Power will be restored after a while, although each character's recovery speed is different. When the power gauge for Special Techniques and Ace Power is full and the character stops sweating, press the C button to activate his/her special technique. Press the A Button to deliver the Ace shot that may knock down a goalie or sink a shot from across the court. Experiment to discover all the cool moves! (Excludes some characters.) Tiny Toon Adventures Acme All-Stars Subgames Use Up/Down to scroll text Subgame Operations: Up to four players can join in a subgame at the same time. Non-player participants are controlled by the CPU so that each event has four characters involved. The adapter is required when three or four players participate. Subgame 1: Obstacle Course Race three times through a course filled with obstacles and other items to see who finishes first. Operations: Move the character using the D-Pad while repeatedly pressing the A or C Buttons. The faster you press, the faster you run. Items: Items fall at fixed positions throughout the course to make characters accelerate, decelerate, change position with another character or become indestructible against enemies. Since items are always changing their appearance, you'll know their effects only when you actually get them. Penalties: When slow-running characters find themselves near the end of the screen, they are automatically returned to near the center of the screen for a one second penalty. Subgame 2: Bowling Bowl five frames for the highest score. Operations: Select bowling position and speed. When your character appears, press the D-Pad up and down to change the position, and left and right to change the speed, then press Button A or C. Adjusting the angle: When the angle gauge begins to move, press Button A or C to lock-in the bowling angle. Fine-tuned angle adjustments: For more precise angles, press the D-Pad up and down while the character is in stride. Ball curve: To change the ball's curve, press the D-Pad up or down while the ball is rolling. The more you increase your speed, the more difficult it becomes to make fine angle adjustments and curve the ball. You can also deliver a super powerful Hurricane Ball by setting the maximum speed and bowling in a straight line. Subgame 3: Montana Max Bop-a-thon Use a rubber mallet to bop the Montana Max images that pop up from holes to gain points within the time limit.

A super-active bunny, he loves practical jokes. He is excellent at sports and a better than average player. Buster is especially skilled at running fast and jumping. His Special Technique (S.T.) is the dash; he dashes at a super high speed. Soccer Ace: Sonic Shot. Basketball Ace: Ear Dunk Shot. Babs Bunny: Babs is Buster Bunny's female friend who just can't stand staying still. As a player, she is roughly as strong as Buster. Whether a player or not, she's a cheerleader during half time. Her S.T. is the dash, she dashes at super high speed. Soccer and Basketball Ace: Stardust Shot. Plucky Duck: Plucky is always poking his beak into something and getting into trouble. Overconfident about his own strength, he's actually a player of average ability. His S.T. is flying. He flies for short periods of time and drops sixteen-ton weights from the sky. Any character hit by one is temporarily immobilized. Soccer and Basketball Ace: Press Shot. When he's crushed by one of his own falling weights, the ball goes flying from Plucky's mouth. Hamton: Hamton is a very cute pig, although he's a bit of a coward and a worrier. Naturally, he eats any food, except pork. He's not too good at sports and he moves a little slowly, but with his strength, he'd make a good goalkeeper. His S.T. is the Curled Hamton. He leaps forward with the ball tucked in a curled position. Soccer and Basketball Ace: Rolly Polly Belly Bump. He flies toward the goal with the ball tucked in a curled position. (Can be controlled using the D-Pad.) Montana Max: Montana Max is Buster Bunny's enemy. A real bully, he comes from a wealthy family. He's quite powerful, but overconfident. He is also a major ball-hog. His S.T. is the Montana Max power. He calls a car from off-screen and runs down anyone who gets in his way. Soccer and Basketball Ace; Rich Man's Shot. A jet fighter appears in the Montana Max Playroom stage. The plane releases weights instead of firing shots. Elmyra: Kind, gentle, Elmyra loves animals. She is always trying to do something for others, but for some reason, the situation always ends up worse. Of normal abilities, Elmyra responds super quickly to the ball. At half time, she is a cheerleader. Her S.T. is clinging. She will cling to whoever draws near, causing them to pass out. Soccer and Basketball Ace: Lovey Dovey Shot. She clings to the enemy, forcing him to shoot the ball. Shirley the Loon: Shirley is a female duck with a strange psychic power-she can control the ball by ESP. She's also a cheerleader at half time. Her S.T. is floating; she moves while floating in the air. Soccer and Basketball Ace: Psychic Volley. Shirley is really using her brain to score! Furrball: Furrball's a flea-infested hobo kitten, but he's an excellent player who really goes for the ball and plays a physically tough game. His S.T. is ball-riding; he moves while balanced on a ball. Soccer Ace: Ball-riding Shot. Basketball Ace: Rotating Jump Shot. Fifi: This female skunk is always falling for somebody, but when she does, she sprays an intense odor. She's especially good at long shots. At half time, Fifi's a cheerleader. Her S.T. is Eau de Score; she releases skunk odor only when she has the ball. Soccer and Basketball Ace: Sweet Shot. She shoots while wrapped in an aura of skunk odor. Dizzy Devil: Dizzy dreams about food, loves a good party and ends up breaking everything in sight. He's an excellent attacker with tons of stamina. Goalkeeping is his main thing. His S.T. is the Spin Attack; he spins as he sends enemies flying, but he can't easily move in the direction he wants. Soccer and Basketball Ace: Spin Shot. This delivers a powerful shot while spinning. Calamity Coyote: A genius with machines, this bungling coyote is unbelievable. Because he's so clumsy, he's not very good at handling the ball. His best play is the long shot. His S.T. is the Robot, which operates a robot. Press Button B to jump and A to bring out the mini-robot. Soccer and Basketball Ace: Robot Shot. Little Beeper: A born sportsman, Little Beeper is a speed freak and an average player. He's a great jumper, of course, and when he runs, he leaves the rest of the field behind. His S.T. is the dash. Soccer and Basketball Ace: Illusion Shot.

Move the D-Button back into the "order" box and find the batter you want to exchange. Push Button B a second time to switch the names. * Data on Pitchers: For the pitcher, seven bits of information are displayed. In the order they appear they mean: 1) the pitcher's name 2) His earned run average (ERA) 3) Right (R) or Left (L) handed 4) The amount of break he can pitch from A to D. A being the greatest curve. 5) His stamina (how many total pitches he can throw), coupled with the number of pitches he can throw before beginning to tire. 6) His throwing speed 7) The general distance a hit ball will travel from A to D, with D being the greatest distance hit. * Data on Batters: There are also seven pieces of information on the other players: 1) The batter's name 2) His batting average 3) The number of home runs hit 4) Right (R) or Left (L) handed 5) Catching ability (A is best, and D is worst) 6) Throwing speed (A is best, and D is worst) 7) Running speed (A is best, and D is worst) SUBSTITUTING PLAYERS: To substitute a defense player, press the Start Button before the pitcher delivers the next pitch.

Push it all the way down and you get a complete swing. If you're unsure of the pitch and only give a little tap to Button C, your batter will hesitate and you only get a check swing. * Bunting: You can bunt by pushing Button A. To control the direction of the bunted ball use the D-Button. Remember that a bunted ball that veers foul or an attempt to bunt on a third strike are both counted as strikes. RUNNING: * To lead off a runner: Push the D-Button in the direction of the base to be run to while pushing Button B. * To return a runner to base: Even while the runner is running, you can make him return to base by pushing the D-Button in the direction of his return and push Button C. NOTE: Once a runner has reached the next base, he cannot return. * Stealing a base: If you have a runner on base, you can try to steal the next one. Have the runner lead off and, just as the pitcher is beginning his windup, press the D-Button in the direction of the base to be stolen and press Button B. IN THE FIELD: * Pitching: By pushing the D-Button to left or right, you can move the pitcher's position on the mound. Push Button C to deliver his pitch. By pushing the D-Button directly after the release, you can direct the pitch. Push the D-Button to the left for a slider, to the right for a curve and up for a change-up. * Checking a runner: If a runner is taking a big lead, you can attempt to throw him out. By hitting Button B, your viewing screen will change to an overhead view to allow you to see the situation from above. Quickly hit the D-Button in the direction of the base to be thrown to, and hit Button C. FIELDING: * Catching: To catch a fly ball position your fielder directly under the falling ball. Be careful during strong winds, as the ball is capable of drifting quite far. Look at the subscreen that appears and position your fielder in the center of the yellow dot for best results. * Throwing: Once you have caught the ball, punch the D-Button in the direction of the base to be thrown to. Then push Button C to make the throw. * Tag Play: If there's a runner stuck between bases, the fielder with the ball can run him down and tag him out. To do this, push the D-Button in the direction of the runner and press Button B. The fielder will run after him. * Repositioning the Fielders: If you'd like to move your fielders around, all you have to do is push Button A and then the D-Button in the direction to be moved. All fielders move at once. Tommy Lasorda Baseball Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Your fielding skills must be sharp, because the computer is awesome with a bat. Be particularly careful with grounders, as you have to be ready to release the ball for an out as soon as you pick it up. If it's a slow hit ball, run up on it to save the extra seconds. * When pitching, be sure not to give it to him too easily, or it'll surely be knocked out of the park! * Try to develop a good curve ball, particularly when you're against an opposite-handed batter! * When batting, it's best not to watch the pitcher, but to watch the small space just in front of the batting zone and wait for the pitch to enter. Be careful of change-ups! * When there's a ball hit deep into the outfield, you better run QUICK, or they're likely to get an inside-the-park home run. * It helps sometimes to put a fast runner on base when you need it, because if you time it right, he'll definitely steal the next base. * If your opponent is getting a lot of hits, it may be that your pitcher is tiring. Change him! * Keep your eye on the runner at first; it's hard to notice when he takes off on a steal. * Pay attention to your team. Adjusting the line-up is the most important part of the game. You want to have a good runner up first. In fourth position, you want to have someone with Home Run potential and a high batting average. In addition mix left and right handed batters. * A throw to the cutoff man from the outfield for a relay home is usually quicker than trying to throw it all the way to home plate. * When a right-handed pitcher is pitching against a left-handed batter, move the pitcher all the way to the left, hold the Directional Pad to the left and throw the ball. As the ball reaches about half-way to home plate, press the Directional Pad right for an almost unhittable slider. * You can steal every time if you have an "A" runner on first, get him to lead as far as possible and run right when the pitcher throws the ball. *** PLAYOFF PASSWORD *** VaVi opqm lFhb YkaY GoEE kA *** BEST TEAMS *** U.S. West - Oakland U.S. East - Boston World East - New York, St. Louis World West - San Francisco

Woody: Mild-mannered, yet a natural leader among toys, Woody has been Andy's favorite toy as long as anyone can remember. Losing his well-earned position as the #1 toy to Buzz Lightyear has unhinged Woody a bit. Since his plan to get rid of Buzz backfired, Woody has taken it upon himself to rescue Buzz from the perils of the world outside of Andy's room. He may just prove he's the best toy after all... Hamm: This little piggy can be found near the most interesting and useful of objects. Hamm can be found in Andy's room, usually near an item that Woody needs to get his hands on. What did you expect from a piggy bank. Rocky Gibraltar: This toy is based on a former heavy-weight wrestler who was known for his massive strength in the ring. Rocky comes in handy when Woody needs to have something heavy moved. Mr. Potato Head: The master of facial expressions is the number one critic of anyone in charge. Mr. Potato Head gets in the way from time to time and always seems to be trying to save face. Etch-A-Sketch: This silent but helpful character has important information for Woody. Etch comes up from time to time to offer assistance to Woody (when he seems lost). Buzz Lightyear: As Space Rangers go, Buzz Lightyear is the top model! The fact that he is a child's toy may hamper his intergalactic travel plans, but he must first figure this out for himself. Buzz is a spaceman's spaceman-ready to take on a universe of trouble with a smile on his face and a gleam in his eye! Whether proving his prowess as a flyer or dashing to another heroic space rescue, Buzz has enough daring for a platoon of toys. Who knows, he may just hit if off with Woody. R.C. Car: This speed demon shows up everywhere, usually just under foot. Woody uses R.C. at first to knock Buzz off of the dresser, but later needs R.C. to catch up to Andy and his family with Buzz in tow. Green Army Men: For a platoon of green troopers, these guys sure know how to see red-Code Red! Woody has them perform recon duty at Andy's birthday party and learns all about his new competitor for Andy's attention. You never know when these resourceful men in green will show up... Scud: Not a toy, but that nasty Sid's rotten little dog. Well, little by human standards, but gigantic from a toy's point of view. At Sid's house, the worst fear of any toy is being turned into a chew toy. Scud will do his best to make any toy's worst nightmare come true. Rex: Take the most ferocious dinosaur the world has ever known and give him a score of anxieties and you have Rex. This carnivore wouldn't hurt a fly. He's busy working on his roar (he really doesn't want to sound annoying), and he can always be counted on to give Woody a hand. He also makes one dandy steed for the rough-riding cowboy... Squeeze Toy Aliens: Inhabitants of the arcade Claw Machine, these dizzy little guys have a one track mind-to escape to the world beyond, courtesy of THE CLAW. Woody has to collect the stray Squeeze Toy Aliens as he searches the inner workings of the arcade machine for a way out. Mutant Toys: Andy's neighbor Sid has a nasty habit of creating warped toys from various parts and pieces of several toys. These "Mutant Toys," although scary-looking, really mean well. They just had a rotten role model. You'll meet many other characters in your search to help Woody rescue Buzz. Some may be more familiar than you think! You

DEFENSE On the Mound Short of doctoring the baseball, Triple Play 96 gives you every option available to a major league pitcher. If you just want to throw fastballs and change-ups, you can press a button before the pitch. If you want something more elaborate(a brushback pitch, perhaps?), you can select from 12 options using the pitch selection menus. Button A: * Throw a baseball Button B + D-Pad to select base: * Try to pick off baserunner B + D-Pad down: * Pitchout/throw home Button C: * Throw a change-up To select a Pitch before the windup: 1. When the batter has stepped into the box and is ready, press and hold the D-Pad up, down, left, or right to bring up one of the four available pitch selection menus. 2. Press A, B, or C to select the appropriate pitch from the menu. The pitcher begins his windup. To select Pitch Location During Windup: * D-Pad in the direction you want to pitch. IN THE FIELD Sure, you can sit back and let your fielders mosey after the ball, but if you want the best defense, you need to take control. Fielding the Ball D-Pad: * Move toward ball slowly D-Pad toward ball: * Move toward ball at normal speed D-Pad + B: * Run with ball in any direction Button A: * Aggressive catch/dive Button B: * Switch to player nearest ball Button C: * Conservative catch/Speed burst When a fly ball is hit, a cross appears where the ball will land. If you don't press the D-Pad, the fielder will move slowly toward the ball. If you press the D-Pad in the direction of the cross, the player runs at normal speed. Throwing the Ball D-Pad: * Hold ball D-Pad toward base: * Select base to throw to Button A: * Aggressive throw Button B: * Switch to player with ball Button B + D-Pad: * Run with the ball Button C: * Conservative throw OFFENSE At the Plate D-Pad left/right: * Select stance before pitch (Open, Normal, or Closed) Button A or C: * Warm up swing Button B: * Switch to baserunner Open Stance: "Open up" front foot toward the foul line to try to pull the ball. Normal Stance: Align front foot toward the pitcher's mound to hit the ball where it's pitched-you'll tend to hit an outside pitch to the opposite field and pull an inside pitch. This is the best stance for most circumstances. Closed Stance: "Close off" stance by turning front foot toward the plate to try to hit the ball to the opposite field. This stance is useful for a right-handed hitter trying to advance a runner. Hitting the Ball D-Pad: * Take pitch Button A: * Aggressive power swing Button B: * Bunt Button C: * Controlled swing To aim hit during swing: * D-Pad in the direction you want the ball to go The direction of the ball is determined by four factors: Batting stance: open stance tends to pull the ball; closed stance tends to push the ball to the opposite field. Pitch location: an inside pitch causes the ball to be pulled; an outside pitch tends to go to the opposite field. D-Pad AIM: the direction the batter aims toward using the D-Pad. This has less of an effect than the batter's stance. Swing timing: an early swing pulls the ball; a late swing directs the ball to opposite field. ON THE BASEPATHS On Base/Leading Off Button A or C: * Go back to base(tag up) Button B: * Switch to another player D-Pad in direction of base you want to run to: * Run forward/back Between Bases Hold A: * Head-first slide Button B: * Switch to another player Hold C: * Feet-first slide D-Pad in direction of base: * Run forward/back After the ball is hit, you control the batter. To switch to the lead baserunner(if other than the batter), press B. Players slide only if they're near a base and there is a possible play. Any baserunners not visible on the main game screen are displayed in windows in the corner of the screen before the ball is pitched. When the ball is in play, a representation of the field appears in the lower right of the screen: Red square: Fielder White dot: Ball Yellow square: Offensive player After a home run, the runners automatically circle the bases.

Resume game Highlight this option and press C(or simply press Start) to return to the game. Instant Replay Go to Instant Replay screen: Start: * Return to Time-Out menu D-Pad: * Move camera focus Hold A: * Rewind Button B: * Frame advance Button C: * Play forward When you press the D-Pad, the camera focus box appears.

Music Toggle music in the menu screens ON/OFF. Organ Toggle ballpark organ ditties ON/OFF. Sound Toggle sound effects ON/OFF. Length, DH Rule, and Field These options, all of which are set from the pregame Select Settings screen, are dimmed and unavailable after the game starts. ALL-STARS GAME The All-stars exhibition game gives you a chance to pit the stars of the two leagues against each other. The teams are based on last year's star performers. To start an All-Stars Game: * Highlight ALL-STARS GAME from the Game Setup menu and press C. The Select Settings screen appears. * Proceed through the Select Settings, Choose Controller, and Pregame screens as you would any other game. Remember, you're playing for the pride of your favorite league, so play like an All-Star! Triple Play '96 Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text HINTS AND TIPS!!! * When two or more human players control a team, try dividing up the defensive positions. For instance, have one player control the pitcher and outfielders while another controls the catcher and infielders. * Keep an eye on any baserunners before the pitch. If a runner is getting a big lead, press B + D-Pad in the direction of the base for a pickoff attempt. * The pitcher's "specialty" pitches have one or more exclamation points after them. The more exclamation points, the better he throws the pitch. * As the pitcher's Fatigue Bar goes down, so does his performance. Keep an eye on the bar throughout the game, and be ready to bring in a new pitcher when the bar gets below half full. If the bar turns red, your pitcher is injured-replace his immediately! * Here's the easy way to get to the ball: Press B until the fielder who has the best chance of catching the ball is highlighted with a star. Then hold down C-this makes him run faster toward the ball, and also makes him automatically throw to the default base. * When you press A, you have a better chance of reaching a difficult ball, but also a greater chance of making a costly error. * If you're not sure which base to throw to, press A or C without pressing the D-Pad. The ball is thrown to the cutoff man or the base without the closest runner. When there are no runners in motion, the ball is thrown to the pitcher. * Make a conservative throw whenever possible-aggressive throws that get by a baseman can really hurt you. * Your Stance and Aim work together-i.e., with an Open stance, aiming to pull the ball will result in an exaggerated pull(and perhaps a foul ball). * You don't have to Manage full time. You can quickly switch between Manager and Player mode to set the outfield and then throw a pitch, call for a hit and run and then swing at the pitch, etc. * Computer-controlled players follow the orders of the Manager to the best of their abilities, but human-controlled players aren't affected by your commands.

Move D-Pad to scroll the championship tree. Press C or Start to exit Schedule screen. FORMATIONS OFFENSIVE Run & Shoot: The ultimate "pass first" formation, with the quarterback deep behind the center and four wide receivers. These four wide receivers can flood an unprepared defensive backfield, often leaving at least one receiver wide open. There's no tight end to pass block, and there's only one running back in the backfield to run or help block. This is no problem if your quarterback is good at dodging tackles, but you'd better be careful if you have a lead footed QB. In either case, getting the pass off quickly if the best way to avoid an avalanche of tackles. All the running plays from this formation are effectively draw plays. These runs develop slowly because the runner starts so deep in the backfield. The draw depends on fooling the defense into having the linebackers hang back in a deep zone or blitzing to the outside to open up the middle. Shotgun: This formation is dedicated to passing, with three wide receivers and no tight end. If the defense is not in one of the "nickel" sets with extra defensive backs, one of the quick wide receivers will have a speed advantage against a slower linebacker. The Shotgun does have two running backs for pass blocking or for surprise running plays. Use one of the quick sprints to the outside if you suspect that the defense is going to blitz up the middle or fall back into a deep zone. When the running backs stay in to block, the Shotgun formation can give the quarterback the maximum amount of time to pass, because he starts deep behind the center. Use this time to find the receiver who is matched up against a slower defender and let him get open deep. Wing: This spread formation includes the standard allotment of two wide receivers, one tight end, and two running backs, but it splits one running back wide of the offensive line so he can quickly get into the burden of running the ball and pass blocking on a single running back. The Wing formation is best for quick strikes to the running back or wide receiver. With only one back in a pass block, the quarterback may not have enough time to let receivers get open deep. Pro Set: This standard formation includes two wide receivers and one tight end on the line along with two running backs split behind the quarterback. The Pro Set is the most flexible offensive formation, with an equal ability to pass or run. With the backs split, most running plays are to the outside. On passing plays, all the receivers and backs are potential targets for the quarterback. Surprise is the essence of the Pro Set. Since this offense doesn't overload any part of the field, the defense must try to defend everywhere equally. Plays from the Pro Set are most effective when the quarterback or the rusher can quickly spot the openings in the defense and exploit them. I-Set: This close set formation includes two wide receivers and one tight end on the line along with two running backs in line behind the quarterback. This formation emphasizes straight ahead runs and dump-offs to the running backs, along with long passes to the wide receivers. The tight end normally stays on the line and helps block. Because the lead running back is lined up close to the quarterback, he can hit a hole in the line very quickly. However, because the running backs are set in the middle of the field, they are slow to get into pass routes. Because it puts few receivers in the defensive backfield quickly, I formation passing plays often take longer to develop than passing plays from other formations. Double Tight End: This packed formation includes only one wide receiver, with two tight ends and two running backs split behind the quarterback. This formation concentrates on power blocking and short passes to receivers cutting over the middle or to the outside. Most of the pass patterns from the Double Tight End formation are short timing routes. Most runs are to the outside. This is a good short yardage formation because it has a lot of blockers to control the line, and good short yardage passing routes. Goal Line: The ultimate short yardage formation. It includes one wide receiver close to the line, two tight ends who are practically part of the offensive line, and two running backs split behind the quarterback. This formation concentrates on putting as many men on the line of scrimmage as possible. The Goal Line set is a powerful formation for running up the middle or on a full house sweep. Occasionally, the quarterback and a receiver can hook up on a short timing pattern, just beyond the line of scrimmage. Field Goal: This formation is, of course, used to kick field goals. Note that the fake field goal play is very difficult, because the defense is rushing full tilt into the backfield, and there are few receivers downfield. PAT: Use this formation to get the point after touchdown. Use other formations to go for the 2 point conversion. Punt: Use this formation when you want to punt. The fake punt is very difficult, because the defense is pouring in and there's very little time to react. DEFENSIVE These are listed with number of linemen, linebackers, then defensive backs. Thus a 3-4-4 has three defensive linesmen, four linebackers, and four defensive backs. In general, the more linesmen and linebackers you have, the better you are against the rush. The more defensive backs and linebackers you have, the better you are against the pass. Use the blitzing patterns when you want to put more pressure on the quarterback, but if he can get the ball off fast you may leave yourself open to long yardage. 5-2-4: This is a formation dedicated to stopping the run, with five big offensive linesmen and only two linebackers. 4-3-4: This formation is also good against the run, but offers somewhat more protection against the pass. 4-2-5: Use this formation against a passing situation, as you have more coverage of the receivers. 3-3-5: This formation is specifically designed to stop the long pass plays, with 5 defensive backs covering the pass receivers. Goal Line: Use this defense to attempt to block a punt, field goal, or point after touchdown. Use the other defenses when you suspect your opponent will try a fake punt or a field goal. If the offense is punting, a return man is automatically dropped back no matter which defense you choose. Of course, the Goal Line defense is also what you use when you're trying to stop a short-yardage goal. Unnecessary Roughness '95 Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Make fast choices on the Play Calling Screen to fool your opponent in a two or more player game. * The key is remembering where the plays are located; if you can do that, you can choose the play you want so fast the other guy will never see your choices. * Best of all, if you get really good at this, you can fake out your opponent into choosing the wrong defense, then quickly go back and change your offense before the play begins. * Match up your star players with the right plays. If you've got an incredible full back, look for plays with FB in the title. * Match the moves you choose to your star player's capabilities. If your fullback is exceptionally strong, the A Button(power move) will work even better than normal. * If your wide receiver has a high speed, use the C Button to dash even faster. * Be careful when passing. Running plays are safer although you'll gain less yardage. * If you need to pick up a first down quick, and you're having trouble completing a pass, here's a pass play for you. At the play calling screen, choose the Double TE. From there, choose the TE Fly (Button C). After choosing the play, make sure you throw it to the C receiver. This pass hardly ever fails!

Choose Your Copilot: Your Strike C.O.R.E. copilot is responsible for aiming your guns and operating the winch that pulls up equipment and people from the ground. 1. Press B to go to the Copilot Selection Screen from the Main menu. 2. Press the D-Pad left/right to page through copilots' dossiers. 3. When you find the copilot you want, press Start to return to the Main menu. You have the option to use your controls either With Momentum or No Momentum. With Momentum is the default control setting. Your helicopter carries momentum--that is, its forward motion is so fast it cannot stop "on a dime" at the instant you let up on the controls--and you have to compensate for it while flying. When you use No Momentum controls, the Mohican stops immediately when you let up on the D-Pad. Home Base and Landing Zones: You begin each campaign at Home Base. Your Mohican doesn't burn fuel while in its immediate vicinity. When you have completed all the missions in a campaign, return to Home Base to end the campaign. Note: Home Base is not the same as Landing Zones. You cannot drop off passengers at Home Base. And you cannot return to Home Base in any vehicle other than your Mohican. Copilots: Different copilots have different skill levels; skill ratings accompany copilot descriptions. Copilot skills are: Winch Control: This determines the area in which a copilot can pick something or someone up using the winch. The best winch operators have a wider "grab" radius with the hook and ladder. Range Aim: Range Aim is the distance at which a gunner can effectively aim at a target. Top gunners have a longer Range Aim. Rate: Rate is the rate of fire a copilot can achieve in his role as your gunner. Better gunners can shoot the chain guns faster when you press and hold the C Button down. Vital Statistics: Lives: You only get three lives per campaign. This applies to both air and ground missions. If you lose your third life before you accomplish the final missions of a campaign, you have to restart that campaign and finish it before you can advance to the next campaign. FUEL: You begin each campaign with 100 units of fuel. You can find more fuel scattered around campaign operations areas, sometimes out in the open, sometimes concealed in structures or vehicles. When your fuel level reaches 14, a message appears warning that you're low on fuel. When you run out completely, you crash. If you crash from lack of fuel, your fuel level is restored to a full 100 units if you begin another life. If you crash because your armor has been destroyed, your Fuel is restored to its pre-crash level if you begin another life. However, if you had less than 25 units of fuel when you crashed, you will start with 25 units of fuel if you begin another life. You do not use up fuel on ground missions. Armor: Armor is your protection against attack. Your Mohican has 1000 armor points; the Blackhawke has 2000 armor points; and your flak jacket gives you 200 armor points when you're on foot. Your armor is reduced when you are hit by weapon fire. It is also reduced by 15 points every time your helicopter runs into a structure. An armor repair toolbox can sometimes be picked up during missions. It is usually concealed inside a structure or a vehicle. Picking up an armor repair toolbox can never increase your armor above the maximum. If you crash or run out of fuel, but you come back for another chance, your armor is automatically restored to maximum. You can pick up more rockets and ammo during a campaign, but you can never have more rockets or ammo than you begin with. If you crash but come back for another life, your weapons and ammo remain the same as they were before you went down. Passengers: Some missions require you to pick up passengers (captives, infiltrators, civilians trapped in battle zones, etc.) and take them to safe landing zones. To pick up passengers, hover above them; your copilot will automatically lower the winch to pick them up. The Mohican holds a maximum load of 6 passengers; the Blackhawke holds a maximum of 20 passengers. Every time you drop off a passenger at a landing zone, your mechanics have time to partially repair your armor. Armor repair ranges from 100 to 150 points per passenger. You can't take off again until all your passengers exit. If you crash before you are able to unload passengers, but you have another life left, your passengers are still with you when your new life begins. Dropping Objects: You will sometimes need to drop objects you've picked up with the Mohican's or Blackhawke's winch. Some objects are lowered automatically when you position yourself over a target area. You have to drop other equipment manually. * To drop cargo using a 3 button controller, press A. * To drop cargo using a 6 button controller, press Y. * HINT: After picking up cargo, proceed toward your destination as quickly as possible. Jinking: When you "jink," you move your helicopter horizontally left or right, which can help increase your weapon's accuracy. * To jink with a 3 button controller, press and hold A and D-Pad left/right to steer. * To jink with a 6 button controller, press and hold X and D-Pad left/right to steer.

The Map Screen: The Map Screen displays the entire operations area of a campaign as well as important structures and objects. Refer to the Map Screen to reconnoiter operations areas, locate objectives and targets, and locate your own position on the Map. Note that the Map Screen will display areas where you cannot go. These areas are outside your area of operations. The Selection Display: To locate objects, targets, and missions on the Map Screen, Press the D-Pad left/right. Objects such as Ammo Crates, Armor Repair, and Fuel Drums show up as flashing dots unless they are concealed. Objects such as ammo crates and fuel drums flash as red or white dots unless they're concealed. Note that missions are numbered; it is advisable (and easier) to complete missions in order. Mission targets and objectives flash on and off in order, that is, targets for Mission 1 flash when a campaign begins, but targets for Mission 2 may not begin to flash until Mission 1 has been completed. Randomly placed question marks flash around the map instead. Mission Data Log (Mission Screen): Check your Mission Data Log for detailed info about current targets and objectives. * To page through data log screens, press the D-Pad left/right. Every important item on the Map has a corresponding file in the Mission Data Log. These description screens show a picture of each item, its name, and pertinent information about it. Every mission in a campaign is also listed in order on the Mission Data Log. Campaign Status Screen: Campaign Status gives you an up-to-the-minute report on your progress in the campaign. Each mission is listed in order; missions that have been completed appear in green, and missions still to be completed appear in red. When all the missions appear in green, the campaign is over--return to Home Base. Special Status Checks: Occasionally, the following special Status Check request will appear at the bottom of the screen during a campaign: Intelligence Info, Check Status: It is important to the success of your campaign that you check this information immediately. * Press Start to check the intelligence report; these reports are available for only a few seconds. Press Start again to leave the intelligence report. Mission Failure: If you commit an important error during a mission, or if you do not complete a mission before an enemy performs an act of terror you were assigned to prevent, a "Return to Base!" message appears at the bottom of the screen. If you return to your base, you are briefed about what you did wrong and the campaign automatically restarts. Points and Scoring: You are awarded points on several bases: Enemies killed, weapons destroyed, equipment recovered, and missions completed. Keep in mind that points can also be deducted for killing innocent civilians. Your points are tabulated at the end of each campaign on the Win Screen. Points are a measure of your success. You don't need a minimum number of points to win the game; you win the game by completing every mission in every campaign. Campaign Briefing: Read Campaign Briefings carefully and thoroughly. Try to complete the missions in order. If you perform any mission incorrectly, the Return to Base message will appear, and you will have to begin that campaign over from the beginning. Note on Danger Zones: Some targets are protected by Danger Zones maintained by radar units or power stations. The early warnings provided by alert zones increases your enemies' weapons' firing rates, power of weapons, and armor strength. Your enemies' firing rate and power points in a Danger Zone will return to normal when it's early warning system is knocked out. The message bar at the bottom of the screen will warn you when you are in a Danger Zone. Note on Landing Zones: In the course of some campaigns you are called upon to clear and secure enemy landing zones (Lzs). Some Lzs become secure at the successful completion of an earlier mission. Enemy landing zones are red; once they have been secured, they become green.

You'd think that she'd been duped, set up; and you might be right. The universe is a system of worlds chiefly represented by the human world, The Dream World of Queen Valia, and the Dark World of King Rogles. The hideous Dark World of Rogles and his 5 Dark Lords is poised to beat all other worlds into submission. The universe is in danger of becoming completely Dark. They have already taken the force of Yang from Queen Valia, and have sealed it into a fantasm jewel. Now, the only one who can help is the one with a heart perfectly balanced with Yin and Yang, the one you control- Yuko, a student from the human world, chosen to wield the sword of Valis against the encroaching Darkness. As she becomes the greatest warrior in the universe, she never suspects in her wildest thoughts that her greatest battle will not be against one of the five Dark Lords, but against the one she called her closest friend, the one she warned "don't go out with him, he's the Dark...", and before she could finish, her friend ran off...into Darkness.

When she moves up and down while kicking, avoid her by sliding. Act 3 In this stage, you are surrounded by lava and flames. You need to use High Jump and Sliding. It gets to be very complicated, so don't get lost! Jump very carefully! If you fall into the lava, you get damaged. If you don't have much space for jumping, try sliding! A ball of flame flies around you. Stay alert. Air waves created by a sword can be destroyed by your sword. The boss character of this stage is VENON, the Lord of Fire. When he jump-kicks, avoid damage by sliding. You can avoid his wave of flames with your sword. This stage is very rocky. Avoid slipping and jumping on the slope. The enemy movements are very quick, so avoid damages by leaving enough distance between you and your enemies. There are many strong enemy characters, so avoid damage by leaving enough distance between you and your enemies. Landing space is limited, so be careful when you jump. If you slip, a life is consumed. Prehistoric birds fly above and around you, and they can dive fast to attack. While VENON is jumping, he shoots out bubbles. You can burst the bubbles with your sword. He attacks you with his tornadoes. Since you cannot destroy the tornadoes with your sword, avoid them by jumping. Your timing is very crucial here. He may put up a barrier in the air, but you can destroy it with your sword.

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME ENEMIES HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Vectorman Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text VECTORMAN! The future of the human race looks hopeless when maintenance drones accidentally replace the orbot leader's head with a salvaged atomic bomb. All the orbots on Earth are immediately ordered, via television receivers, to stop cleaning up the planet and to start manufacturing weapons for an impending ambush of the returning humans. Only one orbot, a sludge barge pilot who was out of communications range, is unaffected by the evil takeover. You are that pilot: Vectorman! The only hope of the entire human race is for you to destroy the villainous WarHead: you must seek him out by following a trail of television receivers around the Earth, and then confront him in a battle that will decide the fate of humanity, and of the planet Earth itself!

JET * D-Pad Left: Fly Left * D-Pad Right: Fly Right * D-Pad Up: Fly Up * D-Pad Down: Fly Down When Vectorman is a jet, he can fly anywhere, and contact with enemy orbots destroys them! Use the jet morph to access secret areas that are inaccessible any other way.

Vectorman Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text STATUS AREAS Vectorman's vital statistics are shown at the bottom of the screen at all times during gameplay. Current Weapon: Vectorman can use six different weapons throughout the game. This icon shows which weapon is currently active. It flashes when there is only a little ammunition left. Lives: The dancing Vectorman icons show how many lives are held in reserve. Health: Vectorman can take several hits before he loses a life. The total filled-in balls represent the number of hits he can take. The empty balls represent the number of times he's been hit. Empty balls can be filled in by grabbing a health goody. The total number of health points can be increased by grabbing a max health goody. Time Remaining: Vectorman has a limited amount of time to finish each level. This indicator shows how much time is left. Multiplier: By picking up goodies, Vectorman can have a 2x, 3x, 5x, or even 10x multiplier. Each sore earned while a multiplier is showing is multiplied by that number. Also, each health goody you get fills in 2, 3, 5, or 10 health balls, and each 1Up goody you get gives you that number of lives. Multipliers only last a short time. Score: You accumulate score by picking up photons and by destroying enemy orbots. When you reach a certain score, you earn an extra life. The score needed depends on difficulty level. POWER-UPS Multipliers: When Vectorman picks up a multiplier, all scores earned, health goodies, and 1Ups are multiplied by 2, 3, 5, or 10. 2x and 3x multipliers can only be found in televisions. Multipliers last only a short time. Health Point: A Health Point fills in a ball on the health indicator, up to the maximum number of health balls. Full Health: A Full Health goody fills in all the balls on the health indicator. Max Health: A Max Health goody increases the number of health points that Vectorman has. It can only be found in a television. 1Up: A 1Up gives Vectorman an extra life. WEAPONS Rapid Fire: The rapid fire gun shoots a stream of bullets that ricochets off walls. Hold down the shoot button to repeatedly fire bullets. Wave: The wave gun fires a cone of energy. It's useful for destroying enemies that aren't in a direct line of eight and it even goes through walls. Bolo: The bolo gun shoots a big rotating energy ball that travels through enemy orbots. Orb: The orb can only be used once each time you pick up an orb icon, but it destroys all the nearby orbots in a huge explosion. Nucleus Shield: The nucleus shield rotates around Vectorman, protecting him from harm. After a short period of time, the shield goes away automatically, leaving our hero with the standard ball gun. MORPHS Drill: The drill is useful for breaking through floors. Bomb: When the bomb detonates, floors, walls, and ceilings can be destroyed by the explosion. Jet: As the jet, Vectorman can fly much higher than he could ever jump. Fish: As the fish, Vectorman can swim through water much faster than he can run. Missile: The missile form can break through ceilings. Parachute: The 'chute form makes Vectorman drift slowly down, so he has much more maneuverability than normal. Dune Buggy: Vectorman can use the Dune Buggy form as a battering ram to burst through walls. Milestone: The milestone goody enables Vectorman to restart the level wherever the milestone was touched. Extra Time: Picking up the Extra Time icon adds two minutes to the level timer. Television Receiver: Destroying a television earns Vectorman one of the goodies described above. Photon: Photons are pulsating energy sources that are spread out through all the levels. Picking up photons earns points. Satellite Dish: Destroying a satellite dish earns access to the Bonus Round, where Vectorman can rack up extra points. Satellite dishes are all protected by an impenetrable energy shield by destroying the Satellite Shield Generator. Satellite Shield Generator: Destroying the Shield Generator turns off the shield protecting the satellite. In most levels, the Generator is hidden in a secret place, so search the level carefully. Vectorman Enemies Use Up/Down to scroll text TURRET Turret watches for intruders from vantage points on walls, floors or even on ceilings. BEEDLE Such a small orbot may seem harmless but in swarms Beedle is relentless. DOORMAN Doorman uses a sturdy shield to guard its territory. There aren't very many ways to push your way past. Maybe if you sneak up from behind... HOWITZER Howitzer is four barrels of grenade-launching mobile artillery. JAWS A fire extinguisher, a bear trap and some clever engineering make Jaws a lethal contraption. A quick blast from that nozzle and it's airborne. LEGS Legs is a sentry guarding its territory with a powerful kick! MARGE Marge is part Doorman, part Legs and all attitude. It'll seem docile until you get too close. SLUDGE PILOT An angry Sludge Pilot is a formidable foe. It shakes the ground and can blast you with powerful arm cannons. ANGLER Angler usually swims in schools. So where you see one... SUBMARINE Packs of Submarine orbots patrol the seas. They'll sneak up from the depths, so keep your eyes peeled. MECHA JELLYFISH Just when you thought it was safe to go swimming, Mecha Jellyfish reminds you it's not. Vectorman Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Max Health Power-Ups are the most valuable items in the game. They increase Vectorman's supply of health points, allowing our hero to take more punishment. * Shooting downward in the air slows Vectorman's descent and can allow access to new areas. * Hitting the jump button while in a jump launches a boot blast, which not only extends a jump but also can destroy enemy orbots. * Fight enemies on slopes by crouching under their shots and shooting up at them. * Some walls that appear solid are actually secret doors. * There are many secret areas, point bonuses, bonus games, and special codes that make it easier to get a high score and finish the game. So exploration and experimentation are very important! * Marge and Doorman are equipped with super-resistant face masks that cannot be damaged. But both these orbots also have a weak spot.

A ghost haunts a spooky castle! When you first go to a world, the Grabby Glove is ready to help you. Roll the mouse to move the Glove around. 2. Move the Glove over any sticker and press a button. The Glove grabs the sticker (and the sticker may start wiggling!). 3. Now roll the mouse to move the sticker anywhere on the picture, and press a button to "stick" it down. If you move stickers over each other, the last sticker you grabbed will be on top. 4. Don't forget to check out the whole picture. Move the Glove all the way to one side. The picture will scroll by itself to show you more places. Some worlds have stuff hidden on the sides. See what you can find. After you explore one side, move the Glove all the way over to the other side. What's waiting over there? Getting Stickers: 1. You can fill up a Wacky World with stickers. Move the Glove to the very top of the screen and press a button. The top tray will slide open. (The tray will also open if you leave the Glove over the handle for a few seconds, or move the Glove fast to "bump" it into the top of the screen.) 2. The tray is full of sticker books, and one of them is open. Look at all those stickers! Move the Glove over any sticker and press a button to pick it up. The tray will close by itself. 3. Press any button again to set the sticker in the scene. You can put it anywhere you want. On the ground. In the sky. Even over another piece! Looking Through Sticker Books: 1. Let's look at that top tray again. Remember, it's full of sticker books. You can look through the pages. Move the Glove to the folded corner at the bottom of either page. (The Glove points its finger when it's ready to turn a page.) Press a button to turn the page. Wow! This book is chock full of stickers! Keep turning the pages to see them all. 2. Let's look in a different book. Move the Glove over a closed book and press a button. That book will open, revealing different stickers. 3. There are six books in all, one for each Wacky World. You can take stickers from any book and put them in your scene. Now that's really wacky! Adding Letters and Words: It's fun to sign your pictures, give them titles and add silly or special words. Look in The Toy House sticker book for letters, and use them in any picture. How many funny words can you think of for the characters to say? Making Pictures Move: 1. Some stickers dance. Some bow. Some blink. And some even fly away! The Magic Glove you need to make them move is in the bottom tray. To open the tray, move to the bottom of the screen and press a button. (You can also rest the Glove over the handle, or "bump" into the bottom of the screen to open the tray.) 2. Find the Gloves in the tray. The Magic Glove is sparkling blue. Move to it and press a button. Now that's your Glove. 3. Move the Glove back to the picture. (The tray will close by itself.) Put the Glove over a sticker and press a button. Watch what the sticker does! Pressing the button again makes the sticker stop moving. (Some stickers can't move. They make a funny noise instead.) 4. Get all your stickers moving at once. Isn't that a lively scene? Coloring: 1. What are your favorite colors? Red? Blue? Purple and green? If a sticker isn't the color you want, you can change it! First, open the bottom tray and pick the Coloring Glove that's squirting paint. 2. Move the Glove over a sticker and press a button. 3. Now you're on the painting table. To pick a color, move the Glove over it and press a button. Then move the Glove to the sticker, and press a button again. There goes the paint, right where you want it. The square paints are solid colors. The paint drops on the palette are made up of shaded colors that will show up together. You can paint with any square or paint drop you want. 4. Finished? Then move the Glove back to the picture and the newly painted sticker will follow. Isn't coloring fun? Erasing: 1. Maybe there's a sticker that you don't want. If there is, you can erase it. Open the bottom tray and pick the dark Eraser Glove with the exploding finger. 2. Move the Glove over the sticker, and press a button. Blammo! So long, sticker. 3. What if you want to erase ALL the stickers? Open the bottom drawer and pick the BOMB. Watch what happens! 4. Change your mind? Then pick the Bomb again, and all the stickers that exploded will be put back in the picture. You have to do this right away, while the Bomb is covered with a bandage. Otherwise, the stickers are gone for good. Starting Over: 1. What if you want to start your picture over? There's a way to do that. Go to the scene and open the bottom tray. 2. Pick the WORLD TIED UP IN RIBBON. Your picture will go back to the way it was when you got your Wacky Worlds game. 3. If you change your mind, pick the World Tied Up In Ribbon again, right away. All the stickers you had before will be put back. Remember, you have to do this right away, while the World Tied Up In Ribbon is covered with a bandage. Otherwise, the stickers are gone for good. Stopping and Starting: Here's a way to give your stickers a rest. Open the bottom tray and find the Traffic Signal. * Pick STOP to freeze all the moving stickers. * Pick GO to get them moving again. Going to a Different Wacky World: Sonic will take you to another Wacky World anytime you want. Open the bottom tray and pick Sonic on his rocket ship. You'll zip into outer space. Now it's time to start having fun in a totally exciting and different Wacky World! Wacky Worlds Making Music Use Up/Down to scroll text Making Music: 1. Wacky Worlds has lots of music. Can you hear it playing right now? Each world has its own tunes. And guess what? You can mix them up. For even more fun, you can make up new sounds. That's right. Wacky Worlds lets YOU make the music. Open the bottom tray and pick the Boom Box to get started. 2. Now you're in the Music Machine. It's loaded with things to do! Every part in the Machine does something special. To pick any one, move the Glove over it and press a button. Song Stickers: * Song stickers hold bits of music. When all the song stickers play in order, one after the other, you hear a wonderful, wild or wacky tune. * Pick any song sticker with the Glove and move it to a different place in the music stack. Try mixing them all up. That sounds great! Play Song Switch: * Pick PLAY ALL to listen to all the song stickers in order, one after the other. * Pick Stop to turn the music off. * Pick Play One to listen to only one song sticker, over and over again. Speed Switch: * Pick the Rabbit to speed the music up in the song sticker that's playing right now. * Pick the Turtle to slow the music down. Play Next/Last Switch: * Pick Play Next to listen to the next song sticker in the stack. * Pick Play Last to listen over again to the last song sticker you played. Musicians: Four musicians are jammin'! They're very talented. Each one plays a different part of the music--lead, bass, drums or backup. You can make them show their stuff. For each musician... * Pick Play to have him play the basic melody of the song sticker in a normal kind of way. * Pick Riffing to turn him into a wild man, playing the song with lots of energy and steam, what a show-off! * Pick Rest and he'll take a break while the song sticker plays. When a musician plays, his tune flows through a tube into the song sticker. That way, the tunes from all the musicians mix together and come out as one song. When you change what a musician is doing, the color of his music tube gets lighter or darker. So does the tab where it connects to the song sticker. That way, you can tell right away what a musician is doing. Music Books and Bands: The Music Machine has its own trays. Open the top tray to see the four music books. Each one is for a different band. They are... * Reggae (blue). * Funk (purple). * House Music (green). * Music for Kings and Queens (orange). Each music book is full of song stickers. Are you ready to make some crazy music? Then... * Turn the pages to see all the song stickers in the book that's open. * Pick a different book. It's full of song stickers, too. * You can pick any song sticker and put it in the stack. * When that sticker plays, watch the musicians change color. For instance, if the sticker is purple, the Funk band musicians will play. If it's green, you'll listen to the House Music band. * Try out musicians from different bands. Move the Glove over one of them and press a button. The musician's color will change. You might put a Reggae bass player with a Funk song sticker. Or have a House Music drummer play Music for Kings and Queens. You're making Wacky Worlds of music! * When you change a musician, the tube and the song sticker tab change colors, too. That lets you know right away what band he's from. Repeating a Change: What was the last thing you did in the Music Machine? Did you try a musician from a different band? Make the drummer riff? Slow down the music? If it sounds good, you can make the same change in every song sticker--all at once. Open the bottom tray in the Music Machine and pick the Radio. Whatever you did last will be repeated in every song sticker in the stack. Erasing: Suppose you want to take some of the song stickers away. Open the bottom tray in the Music Machine and pick one of these... * The dark Eraser Glove makes song stickers vanish. * The Bomb blows up all the song stickers in the stack. * The World Tied Up in Ribbon puts the Music Machine back the way it was when you first got your Wacky Worlds game. Leaving the Music Machine: Are you ready to leave the Music Machine? Open the bottom tray and pick the TV. Now you're back in your Wacky World. Just listen to that wonderful music! Wacky Worlds Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Worlds of Wacky Fun: Stuck on Stickers Mixing stickers from different picture books is cool! It's fun to scramble them up to make things like castles and gardens. For instance, build an undersea fortress, or plant a seaweed garden in outer space! Don't forget to add some action with animated stickers. They usually wiggle when you pick them up, so you'll know which ones can move. Use them to make plays or puppet shows, or act out stories. See where your imagination can take you! Music Fun In the Music Machine, you can get neat effects by composing the song in special ways. For example, make a thrilling "build up" by repeating the same song sticker, adding in one more musician each time. Get another fun effect by "morphing" the same sticker from one band to another! Stuffed with Stickers You can only put a certain number of animated stickers in a picture. When you reach the limit, some of the stickers in the picture book will turn into "outlines." You can get them back to normal by erasing some of the other animated stickers in your picture. There's also a limit to the total number of stickers you can use at one time. If you reach this limit (it's fairly high), the handles for the top tray will disappear until you erase some of the stickers already in your picture. The Mischievous Glove If you don't move the Glove for awhile, it will start fooling around, doing tricks, even taking a walk! Don't worry. It will come right back, ready for fun, as soon as you move the mouse again. Clearing the Screen The Bomb and the World Tied Up in Ribbon do similar jobs, but not exactly the same. The Bomb clears away all stickers from the screen, leaving only the background. That way, you can start your next picture of musical composition from scratch. The World Tied Up in Ribbon returns the screen to the way it was when you first got your Wacky Worlds game. A playful scene or musical composition will be set up, and you can start creating your own masterpiece from there. Saving Wacky Worlds automatically saves and remembers your creations, every time you play. When you end a session, you'll know your artwork will be waiting for you the next time you're ready to work on it. Sharing your Wacky Worlds Your creations are special, so why not share them with the world? Make pictures and trade them with friends for double fun. Create musical video greeting cards and send them to people you love. Who knows--you may get a funny card back, made just for you!

Here's how you get ready. Special instructions for Test Match 1P, Test Match 2P and a 2-Player game will follow this section. Team Selection Screen: Following your mode selection, the Team Selection Screen will automatically appear. Before you is a map of the world. Use the D-Button to move the arrow to the country of your choice. Once the arrow's settled on the country, it will begin to flash. Now press Button A or C to review the team's numerical qualifications. The data is displayed from numbers 1 to 5, the highest representing the best and vice versa. Depending on their given strengths, you may use the D-Button to move the arrow to either "YES" or "NO" and then press either Button A or C to enter your selection. If you wish to choose another team, choose "NO" and repeat the procedure or press Button B to cancel your selection. If you cancel, you may choose another team from the map. Member Select Screens: After you've entered your team selection, the Member Select Screens will automatically start to appear. You'll have to select a starting lineup of eleven players from a group of sixteen. You will have to choose from four different screens which will automatically appear one after the other once you've completed your selection from each one. The first Member Select Screen is the Goalkeeper Screen. On the miniature field opposite the players' names, you'll notice a blinking position. Match the number of players with the blinking position or positions. Choose one goalie by using your D-Button to move the arrow to the player of your choice. Now press Button A or C to enter your selection. To cancel your selection, press Button B. When you press Button B during any Member Select Screen, you will automatically return to the Goalkeeper Screen. The Member Select Screens will follow in this order: Defenders, choose four; Midfielders, choose four; and Forwards, choose two. To help you choose, the players' statistics are listed opposite their names. These statistics are based on speed, kicking strength, tackling strength and accuracy. They are numbered from 1 to 5, 5 being the best. A player's numerical value is based on a comparison with other players on the same team. So if a player on a different team is awarded the same stats, both players' abilities may vary based on their team's total data. Elimination League Screen: After you've selected your team and starting players, six groups will be displayed. Your team will be highlighted in a different color. These teams represent your qualifying opponents. While you're playing, the computer is busy playing the other groups against themselves so the victors will emerge for the Final Tournament. The 1st and 2nd placed teams of each group will qualify for the Final Tournament. In addition, four of the remaining 3rd place teams will also qualify based on their record of play. During the qualifying round, if your team's record satisfies the requirements to take part in the Final Tournament, your team may advance, however; if your team does not satisfy the requirements, the game is over at the end of the match. After sizing up your competition, press Button A or C to view the Qualifying Screen. Elimination League: 1st Day The Elimination League: 1st Day screen will display your team and the name of the opposing team. Press Button A or C to start play. Special Instructions For Test Match and 2-Player Games: When you play a Test Match, only one match is held, During Test Match 1P, you'll compete against the computer although you're allowed to choose its team.

When two people play, each player selects a team and competes against each other. If you end in a tie, the winner is selected by a penalty kickoff. When the match is over, the names of up to three players who score and their times will be displayed. World Championship Soccer Take Control Use Up/Down to scroll text TAKE CONTROL In Soccer, the attacking team and defending team frequently change. The team that is controlling the ball or nearest the opponent's goal is the attacking team. The instant the opponent takes the ball, attacking and defending roles switch. Attacking Kickoff: At the start of the match, Player 1 kicks off. At the start of the second half, player 2 kicks off. When a goal is scored, the side that has scored, kicks off to resume play. Dribble: During game play, you can only control the moves of the player with an arrow overhead at any given time. The computer will control the rest. To move a player in contact with the ball, press the D-Button in your desired direction and the player and ball will advance. Kicking: To pass the ball, Buttons A-C each execute a different style of kick. When using Button A, the ball will always advance in the direction of the opposing goal until you're in sight of the goal. Then use your D-Button to guide the ball accurately into the goal. When using Button B, the direction of the pass is established with the D-Button. Use this pass for long overhead passes. When using Button C, the direction of the pass is established. Shooting: When the opponent's goal appears on the screen, using Button A and the D-Button will allow you to aim and shoot. Depending on the height of the ball's shot and its timing, the shot can be a header, overhead, volley or diving shot. Throw-In: When a ball touches a player's body and goes over the sideline, a player from the opposing team is allowed a throw-in from the place where the ball went out. Control the direction of the throw-in, by using the D-Button. Corner Kick: When the ball goes over the defending team's end line after being last touched by one of the defending team's players, the attacking team is awarded a corner kick. Select the point where the ball is to hit the ground by pressing the D-Button in that direction. Use Button A or B to kick the ball. Defense Tackling: When you approach a player in contact with the ball, you can slide tackle by pressing Button A. Now you can steal the ball. Operating the Goalkeeper: When your goalkeeper is indicated by the arrow, you can stop the opponent's shot by moving the keeper with the D-Button. Now push Button A to make the keeper jump and catch the ball. If you push Button A while pushing the D-Button simultaneously, the keeper will dive. After a set time has elapsed while the goalkeeper holds the ball, the keeper will automatically kick the ball even if no buttons are pushed. Goal Kick: If the ball goes over the defending team's end line after touching a player on the attacking team last, the defending team is awarded a goal kick. Select the kicking direction with your D-Button and kick with Button A or B. If the D-Button is not pushed, the ball will travel to the center. Penalty Kick Contest: 5 players will come forward and the two teams will face off by taking alternate penalty kicks. The team that scores the most goals wins. If the 5 players finish shooting and the number of goals is the same, it becomes a sudden death between the subsequent players until a winning score is established. World Championship Soccer Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text When you're setting up for a goal, passing the ball, or throwing the ball in from the goal, line the D-Button up with any one of the coordinating numbers 1-5 on the field and the ball will follow in that exact direction. When you contact opposing players head-on, you can steal the ball more easily.

World Championship Soccer II Controller Functions Use Up/Down to scroll text Start Button: * Pauses the game * When Start pauses the action, UP/DOWN scrolls through additional Options. D-Pad: * Controls the selected player. A-Button: * Makes selected player shoot toward goal, regardless of the direction he is facing. B-Button: * Makes selected player pass toward the nearest teammate in the direction the selected player is facing. If no teammate is in that direction, a medium strength pass will be made in the direction the selected player is facing. C-Button: * Makes selected player kick the ball in the direction he is facing. World Championship Soccer II Playing the Game Use Up/Down to scroll text The Kickoff A kickoff takes place at the beginning of each half. According to the rules of the game the ball must travel forward. For the sake of game play we allow the ball to be passed sideways along the midfield line to simulate the slight nudge forward used by the pros today. Player Control In World Championship Soccer II you control one player specifically and influence the play of a second player. The player under your control has a colored number above his head representing his usual position on the field. Player control automatically changes to put you closer to the ball. The player with the number above his head is obvious, but you also have some control over the player who is closing toward the attacker. Pressing the slide button at the correct time will cause the closing player to execute a perfect defensive slide. Running The D-Pad controls the running of the player whom you control. Ball control is automatic (although it can be lost if sharp turns are made). When on defense, your defender can intercept the ball both in the open and in a tackle. Passing There are 3 forms of passing in World Championship Soccer II. The most obvious is the Passing mode. The selected player will pass toward the nearest teammate in the direction the selected player is facing. If no teammate is in that direction, a medium strength pass will be made in the direction the selected player is facing. The default setting for this is the B-Button. The second form of passing uses the Kick button. The selected player will kick the ball in the direction he is facing. This strategy is perfect for splitting the defense and 'leading' your intended receiver with a ball played into him while in full stride. Finally the Shoot button can be used as a quick means of passing the ball upfield. Here the selected player will shoot toward goal, regardless of the direction he is facing. While useful in Easy mode, reliance on this latter tactic will cause defeat in Normal and Hard modes. Heading The Ball The ball can be headed when the ball is in the air. Press the A-Button to attempt to make contact and deflect the ball in the direction of the D-Pad . Making A Slide Tackle While playing defense, a slide tackle can be made by pressing the designated button (C-Button is the default) and pressing the D-Pad in the appropriate direction. Any player sliding is effectively taken out of the flow of play for a couple of seconds and therefore this defensive technique should be used accordingly. The Goalkeeper World Championship Soccer II has automatic goalkeepers for the save and reaction part of their game. The player is in control when the ball is in the goalkeeper's hands or he is about to take a goal kick. The Corner Kick A corner kick is awarded when one team kicks the ball out of play over the end lines. The usual kicking assignments are followed. The Throw In A throw in is awarded when one team kicks the ball out of play over the sidelines. * A-Button: The selected player throwing the ball into play will throw toward goal, regardless of the direction he is facing. * B-Button: The selected player throwing the ball into play will throw toward the nearest teammate in the direction the selected player is facing. If no teammate is in that direction, a medium strength throw will be made in the direction the selected player is facing. * C-Button: The selected player throwing the ball into play will throw the ball in the direction he is facing. The Foul (Red Cards and Yellow Cards) A foul is committed when a player tackles the opposing player first rather than the ball first. A particularly nasty foul can result in a Yellow Card being given to the tackling player involved. A free kick is awarded for this infraction. A vicious foul can result in the issuance of a Red Card and the offending player is sent off the field, causing his team to play with one less man. A player receiving two Yellow Cards in the same game also is sent off the field. The Free Kick When a foul is ruled by the referee, a free kick is awarded. The team whose player was fouled gets to restart play from the point of the infraction and the opposing team must remain 10 yards away until the ball is kicked. If the free kick is awarded close to the Penalty Area (and goal mouth) the defense will automatically set a protective wall of players to defend their goal. The Penalty A Penalty is awarded when a foul is committed in the Penalty Area. This is a kick from within the Penalty Area (from the Penalty Spot). Use the style of kick (shot on goal, pass or kick) that you think gives you the most chance of scoring. No other player, except the Goalkeeper is allowed into the Penalty Area until a shot has been taken. Extra Time If the game ends in a tie, you'll play two extra ten-minute periods. If the game is still tied, the outcome will be decided by each team taking five penalty kicks. The team that makes the most penalty kicks wins!

In the first round, the 24 teams are divided into 6 groups of 4 teams. Each team plays all the others in their own group, playing a total of 3 games. In 1994 3 points are awarded for a win, 1 point for a draw and 0 points for a loss. Whether you win or lose is unimportant, only the total number of points collected in the 3 games. Teams with the same number of points in the standings use a stat called Goal Difference (Goals Scored - Goals Allowed) to decide these ties in the standings. All World Championships prior to 1994 award 2 points for a victory. Each game in the World Championship is available to be played by you. Click on OK to start the World Championship. The first game will now be listed. Press any button again and the appropriate host country (Mexico - 86, Italy - 90, USA - 94) appears with the location and date of the first game. If both teams are listed as being controlled by the CPU, you may allow the computer to play the game instantly, by clicking on Play. However you may also use the D-Pad to move up to CPU and toggle it to the word Player allowing you to play that team in the game. In this way any of the World Championship Games can be played. If one of the teams is human controlled, then pressing Play will take you into the soccer game play itself. However if both are CPU controlled, then the game returns to the World Championship Standings Screen and displays the result and new table standings. Repeat the process until Stage 1 is completed . If you have selected a team at the Select Player Team Menu, the team will automatically be set to Player control rather than CPU. At the completion of Stage 1, the two top teams in each group, plus the 4 best 3rd place teams, advance to the next round. Now the Tournament becomes a single elimination affair with all games played to a conclusion, by penalty shoot-out if necessary. As before, you may take control of any game you wish. Note: To quit at any point outside of an actual game, select the password option and either get the new password or quit the Championship.

GAME DESCRIPTION CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME STAGES BROWSE HELP FILES Whip Rush Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text It is the 22nd century, and mankind has drained every planet in the solar system of its natural resources. A team of three Alpha-type robot spaceships was sent to the nearest neighboring system to seek out new sources, mine them, and send the scarce materials back to Earth. One day, while the team was investigating the planet called Voltegeus, it suddenly ceased to transmit and could not be contacted. Many years passed without a sign, and the ships were given up for lost. Then, Earth Defense Headquarters received word from Pluto Base of a huge unidentified object approaching our system. An infra-scan probe revealed the three Alpha ships at its core. In the hands of a hostile alien intelligence, the ships had been transformed into a gigantic, heavily-armed, flying fortress-bent on destroying Earth! The defenses of Earth have all failed to halt the juggernaut of destruction, and it now threatens to obliterate the planet. In a final desperate bid for survival, all resources have been expended to create one mighty jet fighter: Whip Rush. You must pilot Whip Rush on a noble mission to deliver mankind from certain doom!

Touch one of these to take as you choose. There are three optional weapons other than standard equipped bullets. You can take the same weapons up to three times and the power of the weapon can be reinforced accordingly. Also, there is defense equipment called Power Claw(s), which can be taken up to two units. LASER- You can shoot forward only, but rapid firing is very effective when facing strong enemies in front. MISSILE- You can shoot both back and forth. Missiles from Power Claw even chase enemies as they go. FIREBALL- Bullets go in the opposite directions as you move Whip Rush. POWER CLAW- You can equip Power Claw(s) with up to two units. Power Claw(s) also shoot bullets. Whip Rush Stages Use Up/Down to scroll text STAGES The attack of the intruders is now even threatening residential areas of mankind, as well as the space around the earth. We have no means of knowing the whole picture of the intruders yet; however, let us show you the battle scenes up to stage four. Stage 1: Drive Out the Intruders Intruders are now attacking vital defense territories of the earth. Mankind will have no future unless they drive the intruders back here. Go, Whip Rush! Stage 1 Enemies JABA- Intruders' unattended reconnaissance. Some of them may dash against Whip Rush. DOMEL- Slow in maneuverability, yet have multi-directional guns and shoot laser guns. SANDWICH MAN- Moves upper and lower platforms by strong magnetic force to narrow Whip Rush's traveling area, and shoots laser. BUCCUS- Floating mines approaching to bomb Whip Rush. GOMES- Direct corps of an advance command module shooting ring laser. VASCUS- An advance command module of intruders equipped with solid armor plates and powerful weapons. The missiles are so destructive that even a single blast may destroy Whip Rush. Stage 2: Seek Out the Enemy Base Whip Rush has successfully driven them away from metropolitan areas of the earth; however, there are still many units on the ground. It is said that an advance base of intruders is located in this swampland. Stage 2 Enemies PHOTON- Transports carrying large bombs. They drop bombs when you approach closer. BOOMERANG YARO- Fires sharp magnetic boomerang-type cutters. DEGREE- Unattended defensive equipment floating under the surface. Barriers in their foreheads are invincible. Whip Rush is far inferior in maneuverability in the water, because it has been designed to fight in space. To conquer enemies in the water, you must catch their movement as quickly as you can. TANBA- Shoots missiles in three directions simultaneously. ACTFENDER- A defensive system securing the entrance of the base. The system fires laser barriers from both ground and top, and shoots bullets from the center multi-directionally. Stage 3: Destroy the Base After destroying Actfender, you'll find a huge opening of a cave where an advanced command base of intruders is built. Stage 3 Enemies VIVIRIANTE- Unattended storming bombers hiding in the cave. They rotate and plunge toward Whip Rush. DEVELOPER- Floating batteries to defend the base. A pair of rotating batteries fly in the cave and fire cannons when mounted on the wall. WALKER- A member of the Infantry corps which shoots countless homing-missiles from its head. SPECTLAM- Fires widespread cross-laser and has solid armor plates. Slow in maneuverability. MASTER-BLASTER- Consists of upper(Master) and lower(Blaster) portions. Can be destroyed by blasting Master. DEFENDER CORE- A central unit of the defensive system of the base. Destroying DEFENDER CORE freezes a whole operation of the base and all enemies on the ground will get out. Stage 4: Engage Incoming Aliens Whip Rush has destroyed the advanced base on the ground and launched into space, to encounter a storm of meteorites-and you will see... Stage 4 Enemies UNSOCIABLE- Covered with the strongest armor plates. Whip Rush must attack the core somehow to conquer. BEEKY- Moves inside pipes and fires from openings. SILKWORM- Moves on pipes installed in various directions and attacks Whip Rush. KRITCH- Fires wave-cannons from its arms. INPELITELI- Attack fighters having solid armor plates and laser cannons. JABA III- Reinforced version of JABA destroyed in Stage 1. VANGUARD- Protected by four pieces of defensive equipment. It fires huge spherical energy-bullets in all directions. Whip Rush will find a heavily armed Alpha Fortress soon after destroying VANGUARD.

Wimbledon Championship Tennis Scoring Use Up/Down to scroll text Scoring Each match is divided into games and sets. Game The scoring for a tennis game proceeds from love (0), 15, 30, 40 to game. The score is shown after each point. However if the score reaches 40-40, the referee calls "Deuce." Here, players must gain a two-point advantage over their opponents to win the game. Set The first player or team to take six games wins the set. But the victor must have won at least two more games than their opponent or a tiebreaker begins at six games all. Each point won counts as one point. The tiebreaker starts with Player One serving once, then the other players serving twice each in rotation. The winner is the first player up to seven points, providing they have a lead of two points. After that, victory goes to the first to break the opposition's service to gain a two-point lead. And Match A Tournament match is the best of three sets. However, in Exhibition mode, you can select from one, three or five sets. In a three-set match, the first player to win two sets takes the match. Likewise, the first to three wins a five-set match. After each game, the scoreboard comes onto the screen. The left side shows the number of games won by each player in previous sets. The progress of the match is indicated on the right side, including the number of sets won, the number of games each in the current set, and the score in the game that is in progress or has just finished. There are two indicators at the top of the screen. The one on the left shows the time elapsed since the Wimbledon cartridge was switched on. The indicator on the right displays how long the current match has been in play. Fault Fault services occur when the served ball does not successfully connect with an opponent's service box. In this event, the server can try again without conceding the point. However, if this happens twice-a double fault-the server loses the point. A let service occurs when the serve strikes the net but still falls within the opposition's service box. This is not penalized, and the server still has two chances to make a successful serve. Wimbledon Championship Tennis Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text Helping Hands * Semi-Auto mode gives you a feel for the flow of the game and gives you confidence in manipulating the players. Try it as a first step before the full freedom of Manual mode. * You'll find that a hard oblique service from the corner of the court to the center is usually good enough to baffle weaker players. But it's not something to rely on when the going gets tougher. * Try not to let a tough competitor get control of the net. If this happens, you might as well be playing against a brick wall. * Don't give up on your first stroke. There can be plenty of time for a second try if you're quick on your buttons.

After you've mastered the Rookie batting level, it's a good idea to practice batting at the Veteran and All-Star levels to get a feel for the bat bar. * To set up batting practice, D-Pad up/down to highlight the settings, and left/right to change settings. * To begin batting practice, press Start. World Series Baseball '95 On The Field Use Up/Down to scroll text The Game screen shows the relevant stats for the pitcher and batter as well as a miniature picture of the field. Pitching Every pitcher has three pitches, including a Fast Ball. You need to learn the behavior of each pitch to use it effectively. There are three steps in pitching: aiming the pitch, selecting the type of pitch, and selecting the speed of the pitch. * To aim the pitch, D-Pad left/right/up/down. The ball icon in the middle of the screen moves to show your aim. * To select the desired pitch, the aim and the pitch are set, and the speed menu appears. Hide Pitch Location In two player mode, you can hide the pitch location. After you select your pitch, hold down the button. This allows you to continue to move the ball icon without changing the pitch location. Your pitch location is set to the spot where you pressed the button. All ball icon movement after that is diversionary. If you change your mind and want to change the aim or the pitch, D-Pad left/right/up to attempt a pick off or to step off the mound. * To pitch the ball, press A, B, or C to select the pitch speed. THROWING STRIKES It's easy to throw strikes with the fast ball, especially when you have the Strike Zone window turned ON. The fast ball moves more or less on a straight line to the spot where you positioned the aiming cursor. The seven other pitches(Change Up, Curve, Slider, Sinker, Knuckle Ball, Screw Ball, and Split Finger) behave in their own individual ways, depending on the throwing arm of the pitcher. For example, the Slider of a right-hander moves from left to right from the catcher's point of view; and the Slider from a left-hander moves form right to left. You need to find the strike zone for each pitch and adjust your aiming accordingly. Positioning the aiming cursor in the Strike Zone window does not guarantee a strike for most of the pitches. Pick-Off Move You can attempt a pick-off after you select the pitch and before you select the speed. * To attempt a pick-off, D-Pad in the direction of the desired base. Pitch-Out You can pitch out after you select the pitch. * To pitch out, D-Pad down. Batting World Series Baseball '95 makes batting an easy operation, but even so it takes some practice to get good at it. Keep in mind that some pitchers are much tougher than others. Before you swing the bat you need to select your swing from the three available options, which are described below. The CONTACT swing protects the plate, increasing your chance of putting some wood on the ball if only to put it in play. The NORMAL swing tries for a hit-nothing too ambitious. The POWER swing aims for the fences, but the greater bat speed increases the chances of a foul, strike, or pop-up. The pitcher won't begin his delivery until you select your swing. * To select the desired swing, press A, B, or C. * To swing the bat, press C. * To check the swing, press C again before the batter completes his swing. Bunting You can bunt on any pitch. The swing you select does not effect your bunt. * To bunt, press A. * To pull the bat back, press A again before the pitch reaches the plate. Batting(Veteran and All-Star) The Play Options menu offers three levels of batting: Rookie, Veteran, and All-Star. The Veteran and All-Star levels offer a batting bar to help you aim your swing. The batting bar for the Veteran level remains constant, while the batting bar at the All-Star level varies according to the ability of the batter. The two vertical lines in the batting bar indicate the "sweet spot" on the bat. * To aim the swing, D-Pad up/down/left/right as the pitch approaches. * To swing the bat, press C. If the batting bar does not meet the pitch, you won't hit the pitch when you swing. If the "sweet spot" meets the pitch when you swing the bat, you'll strike the ball very hard. Fielding and Throwing With the Auto Fielding(default) option ON, your players automatically field any balls hit toward them. The active fielder appears over a yellow circle. You can override automatic control by pressing the D-Pad. For example, on a bunt you might want to use the D-Pad to charge the ball. * To jump for a ball, press B. * To dive for a ball, press B with the D-Pad. * To throw the ball to a base, press the D-Pad to select the base, and then press C. D-Pad Right = 1st Base D-Pad Up = 2nd Base D-Pad Left = 3rd Base D-Pad Down = Home Plate When you have Auto Fielding off, it's up to you to track all the balls, The player nearest to the ball is automatically activated with the yellow circle. Base-Running If you choose not to control the runners, the computer automatically advances any runners who are forced. For more competitive base-running, use the controls explained below. * To advance a runner, press B with the D-Pad. * To send a runner back, press A with the D-Pad. * To slide, press C with the D-Pad. Runner Control Options The Game Options menu offers the two Runner Control options, shown on the Runner Control Options screen. The top (default) option sets the D-Pad to select the base where you want the runner to run from. The bottom option sets the D-Pad to select the base where you want the runner to run to. Stealing The key to stealing is timing. Don't lead off too far. Don't take off too early. Don't take off too late. * To lead off, after the pitcher selects his pitch press B with the D-Pad. * To steal, when the pitcher starts his wind-up, press B with the D-Pad. Tagging Up If you want to take a base on a caught fly ball, make sure you send the runner back to his base while the ball is in the air.(Button A + D-Pad) As soon as the ball is caught, send the runner.(Button B + D-Pad) GAME OPTIONS The Game Options Screen pauses the action and displays the scoreboard. Beneath the scoreboard is a list of important options and the current batter's hitting tendency chart. The following section explains the hitting tendency chart and all the options. HITTING TENDENCIES On the right side of the Game Options screen is the current batter's hitting tendencies chart. Each player has two charts: one against lefties and one against righties. On the chart, the field is divided into thirds. The number in each part indicates the batter's percentage tendency to hit to that part of the field. So, if 50 appears in the center portion of the chart, that batter hits toward center field 50% of the time. * To select an item on the Game Options screen, D-Pad up/down and then press A/B/C. * To return to the game, highlight Resume Game and then press Start. or press Start twice.

Change Batting Order * To have two players switch positions in the batting order, highlight one of the other players and press C again. Player Stats Before you make substitutions to your lineup, you might want to take a look at the player stats. * To check a player's stats, highlight the player and press B. * To page through all the players' stats, D-Pad up/down. * To view the players' current season stats, press A. * To return to the Lineup screen, press Start. The player attributes appear on the left side of the stats window. Ratings range from 0-9, with nine being the best. Bullpen Once you remove a pitcher, he's out for the game. Before you remove him, it's a good idea to warm up a reliever. * To warm up a pitcher, highlight the pitcher and press C. There are three warm-up conditions: cold, warm, and ready. It's best substitute a pitcher when he is ready. * To substitute a pitcher, highlight the pitcher and press A.

CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS PLAYING THE GAME THE ACME CRIME COMPUTER HINTS AND TIPS BROWSE HELP FILES Where is Carmen Sandiego? Game Description Use Up/Down to scroll text The Chase is on Monday, 5 a.m. A ringing sound jars you awake. You grope for the phone and drop the receiver on the floor. Out of the darkness comes the voice of the chief: "Wake up, kid. Got an assignment for you." You stumble out of bed, turn on the light and grab your brand new detective's notebook. "Just got a call from Interpol," says the chief. "Looks like Carmen's gang has pulled another caper." "Any leads?" you ask. "Not with this bunch. They're too slick. Can't give you any more details on the phone. Better get down to the office double quick. It's going to be a rough one." "Right chief." As your trembling hand replaces the phone on its cradle, you wonder why you ever got into this line of work. Before this morning, Carmen Sandiego and her Villains' International League of Evil (V.I.L.E.) were just sensational headlines in the newspaper. For more than five years, Carmen and her gang of felons had managed to stockpile the world's most valuable treasures while outwitting every so-called crime expert from New York to Sydney. Now they've struck again. And you, the newest employee of the Acme Detective Agency, have been given the near-impossible assignment of tracking them down. Where is Carmen Sandiego?

To win the game and advance your career, you must accomplish two tasks before your deadline: 1. Track the criminal's movements to his or her final destination. 2. Identify the criminal and get a warrant for his or her arrest. Promotions are based on the number of cases you solve. You start as a Rookie and move up through the ranks. Warrants are issued based on information you've entered in the Database. Clues to the identity of the thief will be given to you as you pursue the villain from city to city. You'll log these clues into the crime computer. When the identity of the suspect has been established the computer will issue an arrest warrant. There are 10 possible suspects, any one of whom could be the thief. Carmen Sandiego is the most elusive of the lot. During your search, the Dossiers menu allows you to select the individual crime file for any of the suspects. This gives you a chance to see who you're up against. Where is Carmen Sandiego? The ACME Crime Computer Use Up\Down to scroll text With the state-of-the-art Acme Comlink, you can travel, gather and process clues, and review dossiers. The left screen displays your location and the date and time so you can keep track of your progress. The keys on the lower right panel of the screen control the crime computer.

If the characteristics fit more than one suspect, the names of all possible suspects will be displayed. In this case, you'll have to gather more clues before a warrant is issued. Where is Carmen Sandiego? Hints and Tips Use Up\Down to scroll text The main screen always gives your present location and tells you the time and day of the week. As you arrive in each new city, be sure to read the descriptions that appear on screen. he descriptions contain information that will be useful in pursuing Carmen and her gang. The pictures themselves -- notable landmarks or typical scenes from that country -- may also come in handy. The thief cleverly stays in hiding, but he orders a crony to check you out. When you see a suspicious person run across the screen, you know you're on the right track. If you've traveled to the wrong destination (you'll know if you don't find any information or henchmen), travel back to the city where you last obtained information. Then look over the facts again and try a different location. No thief worth his or her salt gives up without a fight. The closer you get, the more dangerous your situation becomes. Use the Crime Computer sparingly or you'll use up valuable hours and may miss your deadline. And don't waste time playing tourist or aimlessly crisscrossing the globe. Be sure you've been issued an arrest warrant by the Crime Computer before you catch up with the thief. If you don't have a warrant issued for the correct suspect, you can't make an arrest, and the thief will slip through your fingers. If you're close to capturing a thief but you have NOT been issued an arrest warrant, you'll want to go through the dossiers and take a guess at which suspect you think is guilty. Enter the data on the WARRANT screen and select COMPUTE to issue a warrant.

If you're playing the two player game, one player can pick each kid, but you can't have two Zekes or two Julies! If you don't like the names Zeke and Julie, you can call them by other names: Nick and Beth, Spike and Sarah, Trice and James, whatever. We won't tell you what to do, but we know their names are really Zeke and Julie. There are ten victims at the start of the game. You must rescue them before the monsters destroy them. Once all the victims are gone (either rescued by you or caught by the monsters), an "exit" door appears to let you leave that level-unless the monsters got them all, then the game is over. You can then leave the level right away or continue to search for treasures and weapons. When you exit a level, your points are displayed, and bonus points are added for the victims you have saved. Saving all ten victims earns an extra bonus. There are other ways to earn bonus points as well-for example, you get a weed-eating bonus on level 11 if you chop all of the killer weeds. You will continue to progress through the game as long as you have victims remaining and "lives" for yourself. The Victims You start with ten victims. The body count goes down every time the monsters claim one of the victims. The game will continue only as long as you have at least one victim remaining (and "lives" as described below). You can earn bonus victims by earning points, but you may never have more than ten victims at one time. If you have ten victims at bonus time, you will earn an extra life instead. Your Lives Each player starts with three "lives." When your "life bar" runs out you lose a life. There are hidden "1-up" bonuses in the game. You may also earn bonus lives if you earn points as mentioned above. The Game Screen The screen is divided into two parts. On the left part of the screen is the neighborhood map. This is where all of the action takes place. The right side is the information area. It displays the life bar, points, weapons and special items for both players. Player 1 is on the top and Player 2 is on the bottom. In the middle is the radar. It will tell you how many victims are left for you to save and where they are located. If you picture your character in the middle of the radar, then the little white blips that you see represent the victims. Move toward the blips to save them, and they will soon appear on the big area map on the left. Weapons Your readied weapon will be displayed below the life bar. Press and hold the A button and tap the B button to switch weapons. Below the weapon is a number which shows how many shots/uses of that weapon you have remaining. When you run out of shots or uses, the weapon will be dropped from your inventory. Squirt gun-Your starting weapon is good for beating the average ghoul. Refills are easy to find. Soda pop cans-These work like hand grenades; they explode on impact and eliminate most low-powered monsters in one shot. Great against Evil Dolls! Bazooka-Very powerful! Use it to blow holes through cracked walls and weak spots in hedges. Good against Chainsaw Maniacs. Fire extinguisher-Freeze monsters. A long blast for a long freeze or a short blast for a quick freeze. This is one of only two weapons that are effective against the Jelly Blobs (ice pops also work). Weed-eater-Cuts through weeds and monsters! Ancient artifact-This talisman will produce a spinning fire that protects you and destroys the monsters it touches. Silverware An excellent weapon when you come across a werewolf or two! Plates-Effective if you have nothing else to use. Martian bubble gun- Captures the target in a temporary bubble. Try it on ants! Tomatoes-Not as good as plates, but Martians hate them. Ice pops-These can kill the Jelly Blobs when you toss them from a short distance. Football-Throw it deep to get the football players off your back. Special Items Scroll through these items by pressing and holding the A button and tapping the C button. Some items destroy monsters, some give you special powers, and some are unpredictable! Keys-You need them to open doors. Skeleton keys Opens the skull doors. Monster Potion (red bottle) -Become a purple beast with an attitude and bash through walls, doors and monsters. You are invincible until the potion wears off. Ghost Kid Potion (blue bottle) -Turn into a spectre and roam freely. You can't be hurt, but you can't shoot any monsters, either! Random Potion (question mark bottle) -There is no way to know what effect the potion will have. It could restore your health, give you a speed boost, cause damage or turn you into the purple beast. There are other effects that you will have to discover on your own, but we'll warn you that if you turn green, you turn mean! Speed Shoes -The T.K. (Transylvania Knights) 3000 Cross-Trainers are great for sprinting around the 'hood. The effect is temporary, but cool! Decoys-These inflatable punching clowns attract monsters and draw the attention away from you. Pandora's box-The golden chest releases energy blasts when used. They seek and destroy those nocturnal terrors chasing you. First aid kit-Use it to restore your life bar to full force. Zombies Ate My Neighbors Hints and Tips Use Up/Down to scroll text * Your squirt gun is the best all-around weapon, but it's pretty worthless against tough monsters. The weed eater is awesome against mummies. * Zombies At My Neighbors has many secret passageways. You should explore your surroundings even after you've rescued all the victims. Don't worry, you're not under a timer. * Save your silverware for use against werewolves. * Martians hate tomatoes. * On level 41,there's a "1-Up" on the far right side of the level. Walk into the building in the lower right corner. Go into the bathroom and blow through the crack in the wall, then walk upward to find the "1-Up". * On level 3, be sure to pick up every possible item, especially the boxes with the clown's face on it. This is a useful item in the next level to keep the chainsawing maniacs busy.
