DESCRIPTION

An early game with little to recommend it - poor graphics, poor

sound and a sluggish keyboard response.



CONTROLS

Z: face left  

M: face right  

SPACE: jump

Cursor joystick supported.



INSTRUCTIONS

Part one:   scare off the wolves by turning to face them.

Part two:   jump over the cracks in the ice, avoiding the

walruses.

Part three: get to the top of the screen, jumping over snowballs

and scaring away wolves.



There may be other parts, but the game is quite boring so you'll

probably give up before reaching them!

The Adventures of St. BERNARD

The Aim of the Game



Guide your intrepid St. Bernard through the perils of the icy

wastelands to rescue his Mistress from the clutches of the

abominable snowman. Avoid the packs of ferocious wolves,

mischeivous penguins and the icy watery depths.  Climb boldly the

mountains of the Snowmans lair avoiding the giant snowballs only

to be troubled later by inquisitive walruses. Will it go on

forever?  Is she really worth it? These and many more questions

can be answered in this multi-level, fast moving, colourful

arcade style game.  Full machine code action and cartoon style

graphics.
