- OBJECTIVE
-
- The objective of the game is to have Curtis the Crate Man
- reach the red crate in each puzzle.
-
-
- GAME PLAY
-
- You select a puzzle by clicking on the Select button at
- the bottom of the screen. A special selection menu will
- appear. Choose the puzzle you want to load onto the game
- board by clicking on the puzzle number. (If this is your
- first time playing the game then choose DEMO and a special
- demonstration puzzle will lead you through a practice
- puzzle.)
-
- You move Crate Man using your arrow keys. The Left and
- Right
- arrow keys move him left and right. The Down arrow key
- allows
- him to either pick up or to drop a crate. The Up arrow
- key
- makes Crate Man jump up to the height of one crate.
-
-
- GAME OBJECTS
-
- Brown Crates:
- The light brown crates can be picked up and stacked by
- Crate Man. He can only pick up one crate at a time.
-
- Wire Rolls:
- The round wire rolls cannot be picked up, however, they
- can be pushed by Crate Man and will roll in the direction
- pushed until they either hit another object or the side
- of the game board.
-
- Bridges:
- On some puzzles you will see bridges. These bridges will
- collapse once Crate Man has walked over them. However, if
- a crate or a wire roll is on top of the bridge then the
- bridge
- will not collapse and Crate Man can walk over the object
- on
- the bridge. (Play the DEMO puzzle for an example of this
- maneuver)
-
- Steel Doors:
- Many puzzles have two steel doors that Crate Man can
- enter.
- If he enters one door he will come out the other door in
- the puzzle.
-
-
- SOLVING A PUZZLE
-
- When you successfully solve a puzzle by having Crate Man
- reach the red crate, the score board will record the
- puzzle
- as solved by placing a green dot next to the puzzle
- number.
- A red dot next to the puzzle number indicates that the
- puzzle
- is unsolved. (To reset the score board you can erase the
- crateman.skr file.)
