Treasure Island

This exciting game is based upon the classic adventure by Robert Louis
Stevenson.

First Jim  Hawkins  must  avoid  Blind  Pew  to  board  the  good ship
Hispaniola. Then  he  must  avoid  capture  after  hearing  the  crews
mutinous plans. Once these challenges have been overcome the main game
can be played on Treasure Island itself.

The  quest  for  the  treasure  starts   at  the  stockade  which  the
adventurers have built on the  island.  Then  whilst tackling the evil
murderous pirates Jim must find Ben  Gunn's cave. The chase and search
takes place upon an attractive  ~Treasure  Map~  which is displayed on
the screen in sections. There are  a  total  of sixty four sections to
play through.

Once Ben Gunn's cave has been found  the treasure is located, and must
be taken to  the  ship  which  is  anchored  in  Blind  Glass Cove, to
complete the arcade adventure.

At the end  of  each  game  a  percentage  score  will  be given which
reflects the speed  and  fighting  spirit  with  which  that  game was
played. Treasure Island can be played  time  and time again to attempt
to reach a 100% score, which represents total player perfection.


CONTROLS
Jim Hawkins is moved using a joystick or  by the keyboard where Q or A
are up and down, O or P move left or right.

Just avoiding the pirates is  not  enough  to ensure success. You must
perfect a technique that involves getting close to a pirate so that he
throws a cutlass at Jim.  You  must  move  swiftly out of the cutlass'
path to avoid injury.

To pick up a weapon or treasure Jim  must be moved over the object. To
throw a cutlass Jim must first be moved in the direction required then
the fire button or M pressed.

Pressing H will  pause  the  game.  Pressing  T  will terminate pause.
Holding both B and T down together will restart the game.
