                        INSTALLATION
                        ------------

What PowerTetris requires:

- an Amiga with at least Kickstart/Workbench 1.2. 
- ~460KB Chip Memory & ~240KB Fast Memory (1MB Amiga500 Ok!)

PowerTetris  works  fine (better?) with  any 680x0 ECS or AGA
machines.

This demo-version shareware of PowerTetris, is quite limited:
only  3 minutes of  game and only the  first 5  levels of the
'Custom' mode. Some boring  requesters 'This is the Shareware
version!' slow down the menus. Register yourself to  play the
REAL Powertetris!


                    LAUNCHING POWERTETRIS
                    ---------------------

PowerTetris  may  be run from  either  Workbench or a  Shell.
It can be installed on  Hard disk.  When it starts,  it looks
for a  file in the current  directory called  POWER.HSC  that
contains the current highscores.



                     QUICK DOCUMENTATION 
                     -------------------

    (Register yourself for fully-explained documentation!)

At first, you can choose several options in the menu.
The left column selects  joystick 1, j2 or keyboard interface
for each player.

Then, you can choose which type of game you are going to play
Classic for  linear game, Custom  for 25-level game and  duel
for two player-competition mode play.

You can click on 'Highscores' to  look at Top20-highscores or
on 'About' to see PowerTetris's credits.

Now, You can click on 'Start!' to enter the game.
Two players can play at the same time, each game is perfectly
independent from the other. (Not in 'Duel Mode' of course...)

The rules are the  classical  Tetris(R) ones: The point is to
makes full lines with geometrical pieces.  Each finished line
destroys itself and drags down all that is on its top.
You lose when you reach the top of the screenplay.
