- GAME PLAY:
-
- NUMBER SELECTION:
- After the title screen is cleared, the keno board will be displayed
- in the upper left hand corner of your screen. You may select from
- one to ten numbers to play for each particular game. The numbers
- are selected by pointing the mouse at the number you wish to
- choose, and by clicking on that number with the left mouse button.
- Notice that as the numbers are selected, the payoffs are displayed
- on the right side of your screen. Numbers may be de-selected by
- clicking on them again.
-
- MAKING YOUR WAGER:
- After you have chosen the numbers you wish to play, make your wager
- by clicking on the "BET 1 COIN" icon at the bottom of the screen.
- You can insert up to 5 coins by clicking on the "BET 1 COIN" icon
- five times, or to simplify matters, you can just click the
- "BET 5 COINS" icon. Please note that once a wager is made it can't
- be revoked.
-
- PLAY THE GAME:
- After your numbers have been chosen, and your wager has been made,
- click on the "PLAY" icon at the bottom of the screen. The computer
- will randomly select 20 numbers and mark them on the keno board.
- A "miss" (a number you didn't pick) will cause the called number
- to be changed to grey. A "hit" (a number you picked) will change
- the number's color to red. Your total hits for each game are tallied
- under the right corner of the keno board. If you received enough
- hits to win the game, the amount of your win will be displayed when
- play is final.
-
- PLAY THE SAME #'s:
- If you'd like to play the same numbers that you played in the
- preceding game, click on the "PLAY SAME #'s" icon at the bottom of
- the screen. Your previous numbers will then be selected, and you
- can then make your wager or edit your previous numbers if you wish.
- This comes in handy when playing more than just a few numbers.
-
- QUIT:
- Click on this icon, and it will do what it says... Quit.
-
- PROBLEMS?:
- If you have a SoundBlaster, but can't get SoundBlaster sound, make
- sure that you have a global sound variable in your autoexec.bat
- file or copy your CT-VOICE.DRV file into the same directory as
- Video Keno.
