SNOOKERED by Steven Howlett Top Ten Software Trivial Snooker on your computer. Snookered is a quiz game with a snooker backdrop. You start off attempting to pot a red ball, the computer will ask you a red ball question, which are general knowledge, not too difficult and worth - like the red ball in snooker - ONE point. The computer will show four answers (A, B, C or D) and you must choose the correct one. If you do then the red ball will be potted and you will move onto a colour of your choice (Yellow, Blue or Black); these questions are worth the amount corresponding to the snooker ball of that colour - 2, 5 or 7 and are in an ascending order of difficulty and a lower time limit. Once you have answered a colour ball question it's back onto a red ball, then a colour and so on. The game ends when you have potted 16 red snooker balls or when you have answered two questions incorrectly. CONTROLS Q selects answer A A selects answer B P selects answer C L selects answer D 0 moves the colour ball selection cursor 1 selects the colour ball indicated To Load: LOAD "" Snookered was written by Steven Howlett Cover Artwork by Vidal Buffoon Snookered (c) Maynard International 1988 MIL, 12 Chiltern Enterprise Centre, Station Road, Theale, Berks.
