The Plot
--------

Having originally been thwarted in Gloop many years ago, the Commodore 
fundamentalist mutants have re-grouped, armed themselves to the teeth, 
and 
are planning to build a time machine.  Holed up in a castle, their aim 
is to 
go back to 1982 and prevent the launch of the ZX Spectrum.  
Fortunately, 
Izzy has used the intervening years to acquire a bronze magic 
certificate 
and now has a few simple spells to help him in his latest battle 
against 
these rogues.  In order to succeed, Izzy needs to banish all the 
mutants and 
blow up the castle where the mutants are building their machine.



The Mission
-----------

Izzy can move left and right around the levels, and jump from one 
platform 
to another.  Playing cards can be found lying around and may be 
collected 
for 15 magic points, or hi-lo gambled for 30 points.  In addition to 
magic 
points, Izzy needs to collect ingredients for each of the eight 
different 
spells.  Spells require 2, 3 or 4 ingredients and as each item required 
is 
collected the recipe list is displayed in the status panel - items 
shown in 
yellow are those already collected, magenta items are the ingredients 
still 
required for a spell.  Each spell has a different effect, and some will 
only 
work on certain type of mutant - you'll have to figure out which does 
what 
to whom yourself.

The mutants' arsenal includes 3 bombs which have carelessly left lying 
around the castle.  These need to be primed before they detonate and 
this 
requires Izzy to punch in the 4-digit destruct sequence for each 
device.  
Each digit consists of one of the 4 direction arrows, and when the 
correct 
digit is entered in the correct position the corresponding line of 
red/green 
LEDs in the status panel stops flashing.  Be quick about it, this is a 
dangerous business and Izzy's energy levels will drop while he is 
trying to 
crack the code.

Good luck!
