This is the first of three arcade type games included in this book. It is a variation on a well known theme in which you guide your character around a maze eating up the dots as you go. Life is never easy in the arcade world and so there arc a couple of nasties out to cat up the dots before you do. To make matters even worse they will kill you if they get you! The object of this variant is to pick up as many dots as possible before all the dots arc gone, without being killed. Once all the dots are gone the next screen will be displayed. Controls arc, as usual, joystick or cursor pad, which change the direction of the Pick Man. In the hands of a skilled and patient player, incredible high scores can be achieved. The ‘High Score' subroutine can provide a Pick Man Hall Of Fame. |
