INSTRUCTIONS

Zorro, the famous Mexican hero, sees the evil Colonel Garcia

abducting a beautiful maiden. As he's a hero, it's up to him (and

you) to rescue Garcia's captive...



ZORRO is basically an arcade adventure. The overall plan is to

get to Garcia's jail and release the captive, but there are a

number of tasks you'll need to complete first. The first of these

is the recovery of her hankerchief, for some reason. You will

need to collect several other objects in order to gain further

objects until your ultimate goal is reached. The important items

are easily identified - they flash until picked up (by simply

walking over them) and are then automatically added to your

inventory. Only one object can be picked up at a time. Having

been collected, the objects can then be used as keys to solve

puzzles and open doors.
