Remove the disc and insert the original KICK OFF when the screen displays the word KICK OFF INTRODUCTION: The Extra Time is an expansion disc for Kick off and provides a number of enhancements to the original game. The pace at all the five levels has been increased, though the difference in pace between the levels has been reduced. New attributes of skill in passing, shooting and tackling play a more decisive role in determining the skill level though the teams at the National level retain some players of International class. Addition of four new tactics gives the players a choice of eight tactics altogether. There is also a choice to play in one of the three leagues at the Reserve, National or International level. Four new playing surfaces are provided which together with the normal Kick Off playing surfaces gives a choice of five playing surfaces. The playing surfaces have a marked influence on the bounce, speed and travel of the ball and also affects the pace and stamina of the players. Another factor to influence the ball while it is in the air is the wind. The strength of the cross wind and its up and down pitch vector are given. The instinctive control method of Kick Off has been retained totally but enhanced to control the power of the shot and alter its direction from the direction of player movement. Similarly, the player can control the keeper if he so wishes for Goal Kicks. There is a choice of 9 kicks. A new set of Referees have been introduced to control the game more effectively at the higher levels. Bring down the opponent at your peril. You have been warned!

ATTRIBUTES Accuracy attribute in Kick Off has been replaced by three new attributes, namely Shooting, Passing and Tackling skills. These attributes together with Pace, Aggression and Stamina give more individuality to the players. The new attributes play an important part in determining the skill level of the players. The new pace of the players at all levels has been increased and the difference in pace between the levels has been reduced. PLAYER CONTROLS The player controls remain exactly the same as in Kick Off but with some enhancements. STOPPING THE BALL Press FB before touching the ball. The ball will stop and is now under player control. PASSING Stop the ball. Move the joystick in the direction you wish to pass and release the FB. DRIBBLING The ball travels in front of the player. The distance it travels depends on the speed of the player when he makes contact with the ball. The MARKER line under the player will turn white as soon as the player touches the ball and turn black pixel by pixel. The process is repeated each time the player touches the ball. SHOOTING Press the fire button after touching the ball. The strength of the shot is determined by how many pixels of the marker line are white. The greater the number the more powerful the shot. Timing is all important. The direction of the shot can also be changed by moving the joystick left or right, up or down. The change in direction will be perceptible but not vast. KEEPER CONTROL The Keeper control for defending the penalties remains the same. The player is also given the control of the keeper for goal kicks., if he so desires. To keep the game flow, if the player fails to exercise control, the computer assumes the keeper control as in Kick Off. The player must therefore exercise the option quickly and well before the computer goes into default mode. There are nine types of goal kicks: HARD AHEAD HARD LEFT HARD RIGHT MEDIUM LEFT MEDIUM AHEAD MEDIUM RIGHT SOFT LEFT SOFT RIGHT SOFT AHEAD Move the joystick in the required position before the keeper kicks or throws the ball. Press the fire button to quickly boot the ball upfield to catch the opponents out of position or to stop keeper wasting time. Use the scanner to select the direction and type of goal kick.
