PLAYING INSTRUCTIONS:
Play is for ONE or TWO players. Follow on screens instructions for user defined keys. If you have a joystick connected select directions of movement by moving your joystick as required.

NAME
To enter your name, press up or down key until required letter is reached, and then fire button. Up to eight letters may be entered. Move to end of bracket and press fire button for next screen. If more than one player, enter YES by using up or down key and fire button and then proceed as above.

OBJECT
The object of the game is to stop the bandit shooting up the canyon. Cliff, our hero, can do this in a variety of ways which become more complicated as you progress through the 15 levels. Each level has between 3 and 5 different screens which appear randomly. Before each screen a title is displayed which will give you a clue as to the action that follows. Look at the objects on the screen and discover their purpose in stopping the bandit. There are many different objects used from cannons, boulders, boomerangs and bombs to railway trucks and trampolines. For instance if you see as cannon on the screen it may be obvious that you stand behind it and press the fire button — this might not be the case.

Always bear in mind that you are taking the place of a character in a cartoon-style action game.

The computer controls the games or in certain circumstances will take over the entire action, just sit back and watch the laugh a minute cartoon humour.

SCORING
You start with five lives. As you progress through the levels you gain a life after every three levels, but you will never have more than five. Points are awarded upon completion of each game at each level. Maximum points can be gained by completing each game at the first attempt, with less points awarded as more attempts are taken. Each game at each level must be completed before going onto the next level. The games at each level will come up randomly until completed.
