AMAZING MAZE (1 or 2 players)
Walk down "blind alleys" or find three doorways leading from a room -- each one leading into a closed hallway! Score points by being the first one to arrive at your opponent's starting point.
With Amazing Maze, you can choose long or short games and select from a variety of skill levels. At any level, the maze changes every time you play.
STARTING THE GAME
Choose Amazing Maze by pressing 1 on the keypad or by using remote game selection (pull the trigger on hand control #1, turn the knob until 1 appears on the screen, then pull the trigger again).
Enter the number of players (1 or 2). If 1 is entered, the other player is the Arcade.
Select the maximum score (1-99). The score entered is for the total game (not for each player). If you enter a number that is less than 9, you will need to press the = sign to start the game.
Choose the difficulty of the maze by selecting 1-EASY, 2-MEDIUM or 3-HARD.
PLAYING THE GAME
The hand control functions for Amazing Maze are:
Trigger | (Hand control #1) Advances the game to the next maze. |
Knob | Has no function. |
Joystick | Moves the players' colored squares through the maze. |
The object of the game is to reach your opponent's starting position first by moving your colored square through the maze.
After the maze has been created, use the joystick to direct the movements of your colored square. Player #1 controls the red square with player #2 directing the blue one.
There is only one path through each maze. As you proceed toward your opponent's starting point, an audible tone gets higher. When you move in the opposite direction, the tone get lower. When you have found the starting position, a victory tune is played and the winning pathway is displayed.
At the top corners of the screen, you will see the scores for both players. Then, after the trigger is pulled on hand control #1, another game is prepared for entry.
SCORING
Each time a player wins a maze (by reaching his opponent's starting point first), he is awarded one point. The game continues with additional mazes until one player reaches the maximum score.
