2. Description of UNITS:
Scarlet
grains:
This feral beast is mightier than the player, avoid direct contact! The Grains
may be destroyed with falling Stones or Genetic Bombs. A killed Grain produces
extra Coins.
Pomegranate:
When a Pomegranate senses the player within its proximity, it will pulsate and
rupture into Scarlet Grains. However, if you are quick enough, you can charge
into it to deactivate it before it releases Grains. NOTE: Sometimes you'll
need the extra Scarlet Grains a Pomegranate produces to crush and create coins.
Can Of Power:
The Can Of Power contains one Genetic Bomb. The player can only carry one
Genetic Bomb at a time, but picking up a second Can Of Power will reward you
with an extra life!
Genetic Bomb:
A devastating weapon -- it destroys everything except walls and exits.
Fortunately, the player is not affected by the blast of a Genetic Bomb. You
must collect Cans Of Power to obtain Genetic Bombs.
Use of Genetic Bombs:
Press the spacebar and "BMB" will appear in the Heads-Up Display when the Bomb
is charged. Then press an arrow key to launch the Bomb in that direction. If
you change your mind and decide not to unleash its fury, simply press space
again to deactivate it for later use.
WARNING: Bombs shatter into explosive fragments which in turn also explode,
causing violent, and sometimes deadly, chain reactions. Use caution when
detonating these powerful devices.
Wall :
An indestructable and immovable barrier.
Ground:
A temporary barrier the player can dig through by moving into it.
Ground is also destroyed with genetic bombs.
Stones:
Stones may be pushed but never pulled and will roll off each other when
stacked. The player must be careful not to be crushed by falling stones or to
allow them to barricade the exit or important passageways. Rocks can also be
used to smash the Scarlet Grains roaming the maze, which explode into an array
of coins. NOTE: Only one stone can be pushed at a time.
Coins:
Collecting the shimmering coins is your primary objective, but beware: They can
also kill you they fall onto your head. Collect coins by running into them.
Exit:
The portal to the next level, Exits only reveal themselves when the necessary
numbers of coins have been collected.
