ÿþTREASURE HUNT

=============



Welcome to the chase! After loading the game you will be given your START LOCATION. Simply find the relevant page in the accompanying "Blue Guide" and then get to grips with the first clue. Each clue contains three levels of location: for instance, the answer to "Go to a bovine crossing, and a street like a sainted farmer, to see a commemoration of burnt divines" might be (1) Oxford (where your helicopter will land): (2) St Giles and (3) Martyrs Memorial. Remember to write the shortened forms of your second and third level clues: e.g. "Cathedral" rather than Southwark Cathedral. The London game has only two levels of location.



Happy Hunting!

The program and the first Treasure Hunt will now load automatically. Don't forget to stop the tape.





PLAYING INSTRUCTIONS



You may now load a new hunt if required.

You can now see the first clue. and you have 10 seconds to read it; when the 10 seconds are up, the clock starts and the Treasure hunt is on.



Two screen displays are always available - holding down the CAPS SHIFT keß and touching the 'Z' key switches between them. One screen shows the present status of your helicopter, which inciudes Destination (eg: Exeter) and time remaining to complete the Hunt.



The second screen is the map screen. This shows a map of the area, and also the position of your helicopter. As you explore, more places will be highlighted, and a line will be drawn to trace where you have been.



You may type in commands to the helicopter pilot (on the Status Screen only) which include 'Land', 'Take Off', 'Hover', 'Circle', or any of the following compass bearings: N, S, E, W, NE, NW, SE, SW. You can also tell the pilot to fly to a specific place, eg: Totnes, Exeter etc. As soon as you have given the command (and pressed ENTER), the chopper will set off.



When you arrive at your destination, you will land automatically. Type in where you think the next clue is. If you are on the right track, you will be told 'Well Done Keep Going'. When you have finally found the clue, the computer will read it out to you.



If you manage to solve all the clues (or you run out of time), the Treasure Hunt will be over. You can then either start again from the beginning, or load in a new Hunt.



Note: To abandon the current hunt, press BREAK (CAPS SHIFT and SPACE). Then press either Y or N, for a new game or to stop completely, as appropriate.
