Copy Protection:  To answer the copy protection question at the beginning
of the game, type the indicated word in the Adventurer's Journal and
press the ENTER key.

NOTE: Completely disregard the above paragraph if you have the SKID ROW
      Cracked Version.

Giving Commands:  You can play the game from the keyboard, with a mouse,
or with a joystick.  The keyboard is active even if you configure the
system to play with the mouse or the joystick.

   To select a command using the keyboard, either press the highlighted
letter in that command or use the cursor keys to highlight the command
and press the ENTER key.  To give commands using the mouse, point to the
desired command and double-click with the left mouse button.  To give
commands with the joystick, highlight the command and press the A button.

Moving Around:  The party will move through the game in 3D/Area/Overland
and Combat modes.  Targeting spells and ranged weapons during combat is
similar to moving characters.  To move, select the Move option and give
the appropriate commands.

The following keyboard controls are used for movement and targeting:

To move in a 3D/Area/Overland mode with a mouse, click the mouse cursor
at the edge of the display window in the direction you want to move.  To
move forward, click at the top of the window.  To turn around, click at
the bottom.  To turn right or left, click at the appropriate side.

To use the mouse for combat targeting and movement, click the mouse
cursor over the target square and the cursor will advance towards the
target.  If the target is off the screen, first select an intermediate
square near the edge of the screen.  To move in combat, click on the
adjacent square you want to enter.

Joystick movement is similar to using the cursor controls/keypad.  Select
the Move command and then move the joystick.
