- Version 1.00 24.10.91
-
- The idea of this game is to place all of the words listed
- into the grid. Each box corresponds to a letter.
-
- It is based upon the many puzzlebooks that are
- available.
-
- Each word can be either horizontal or vertical.
-
-
- All of the words are listed on the right hand side of the
- screen, in alphabetical order.There is only enough room to
- display 20 words so to see the remainder of your list
- press the "Page Up" button to move the page up! and the
- "Page Down" button to move the page down!
-
- Each page holds a specific number of letter words. For
- example, the five page holds all the words with five letters
- in. To move between pages use the left and right arrows.
-
-
- Once you have decided where a particular word should go,
- move the pointer to the word in the list and press Select.
-
- Now move the pointer to the start of the word on the grid
- and press one of the following:
-
-
- 6 Right
-
-
- 2 Down
-
-
-
- If the move is legal then the word becomes highlighted on
- both the grid and in the list.
-
- The game continues until all words are placed from the list.
-
-
- Pressing the middle (Menu) button produces a sort of
- risc-os menu. The menu is stuck in this position.
-
- The load option allows a game file to be loaded. Game
- files are included for you to try.
-
- The save option allows you to save newly defined games.
-
- The game designer option has two options:
-
- Alter grid layout option allows you to change individual
- letters in the grid. Pressing RETURN returns you back to
- the game.
-
- Alter words option allows you to enter new words in the
- list. You then have to place the word in the grid using
- the numerical keys as described earlier.
-
- Load game option allows you to load an incomplete game.
-
- Save game option allows you to save the game and return to
- it later.
-
- Note: Only the latest game is kept on the disc.
-
- Exit to Basic option. Obvious enough???

- Exit to Desktop option. Even more obvious???
-
- This program isn't multi-tasking as I haven't yet got the
- hang of template files!!! (Anyone out there got any
- suggestions???)
