.........1.........2.........3.........4.........5.........6.........7.........8 ANDY CAPP (Mirrorsoft) It's Monday morning and you're in a flat spin. Flo's demanding your dole cheque. She'll be off to her mother's if she doesn't get it soon. And who'll do the washing-up then? You'll need every ounce of your northern wile and charm to raise the cash to survive, one way or another. Maybe you can extract a quid or two from your friends? Or try your luck on the horses? But whatever you do, steer clear of the rent man and the local copper - they're both after you with a vengeance! Watch your favourite cartoon characters come alive as you duck and dive, dodge and weave you way through a week in the life of Andy Capp. KEYBOARD CONTROLS (all formats) Left O Right P Up Q Down A Fire Space JOYSTICK CONTROLS Normal joystick movements apply.

From left to right the four icons are: WALLET For moving money in and out of your pocket and for buying items when possible. SPEAK For general conversation and questioning characters during the game. FIGHT Sometimes getting into a scrap is the only way to get yourself out of a sticky situation. ACTION For examining and using objects and displaying the game options. Choose from the game options by moving the highlight up and down, then pressing FIRE. You can blow kisses at characters by using the down control - they'll be so stunned, they'll stop dead in their tracks and you can make your get- away. To turn a corner or enter a building, turn to face it and press up. To talk or fight with a character you must be touching them (unless they're static characters). HINTS * Keep your alcometer topped up - the necessary is available from you- know-where, but only during opening hours. * Steer clear of the policeman - you're on the wanted list. * If you fancy a flutter, remember you don't only get tips from the inlay card. * If you get involved in a fight, watch you don't lose your wallet. * After all, if things get desperate, you could always get a job.
