Punch and Judy is based on the popular traditional seaside show in
which you take the role of Mr. Punch. Your task involved constructing
the show booth, finding the rest of the cast and finally taking part
in the show itself. (A thrill a minute task.)

Easy eh? Not so, because the eight parts needed to build the booth are
scattered around the town and must be found and taken one by one to
the beach. However, certain pieces are too large to be carried through
narrow doorways and the tide is slowly coming in. (Oh no, behind you,
behind you!)

Once the booth has been built, you must then scour the town for the
other cast members, hit them (that's the way to do it!) and lead them
to the beach. Unfortunately, Punch's progress may be hindered by the
presence of a snap-happy crocodile or a patrolling policeman (ello,
ello, ello). If you are bitten by the crocodile the tide will come
further in. If on the other hand you are arrested, you will be taken
to the police station and any object or person you have with you will
be taken elsewhere. There are ways of avoiding these hazards! Can you
find them?

When the booth and the cast are assembled at the beach, the show will
commence ... (That's the way to do it!) ...
