		RUSSIAN ROULETTE

GAME ESSENCE
     The game essence is that the player fills on his cards  symbols
identical to those appearing in the game field .  This  is  done  by
pressing the appropriate Action Keys . All game consists of  rounds,
each of them ends when one (or several) player(s) wins.
     Winning conditions are:
- filling of one row for standard game,
- filling of all the rows on the players' cards for full game.

PLAYERS
     Number of players in the game can vary from 1 to 3. In addition
the Computer can also take part in the game.

SYMBOLS
     Symbols on cards are numbers (from 1 to 90) or colored figures.
Their location can be regular or stochastic. If the Orientation option
is on the figures set is extended by variously oriented symbols.

GAME LEVEL
     Time interval between successive  appearances  of  symbols  (or
their pronunciation) varies. The value of this  interval  determines
the game level. The lesser the time interval, the  higher  the  game
level.  Players  can  choose  any  of  ten  levels  available.   The
transition in a group  game  take  place  automatically  during  the
round.

GAME TIME
     Player(s) can limit the game time using Timer option. Time is
measured in seconds.

GAME VARIANTS
     There are two game variants available: standard  and  full.  In
standard game the winning condition is filling of one row , while in
full game the winning condition is filling of all the  rows  on  the
player(s) cards.

GAME PROCESS
     At the  beginning  of the  game player(s)  can  select  optimal
configuration using the Options menu, then Start New game  from  the
Game menu. Every player chooses from one to four (three in EGA mode)
cards. In full game all players  have  the  same  number  of  cards.
Players pay to the bank for chosen cards in every round. During  the
game the bank increases by means of penalties payed by  players  for
wrong presses. If you change the game  Options  then  you  can  only
start a New game.

ADDITIONAL EFFECTS (Option Joker)
     Some additional effects can be introduced into the  game. They
are "Fortune Gift" and "Fortune Mockery" signs.
In a standard game:
- if the sign "Fortune Gift" appears in the  game  field,  all  the
maximally filled rows are filled to full and  the  winning  row  is
chosen from them,
- if the sign "Fortune Mockery" appears in the game field, all  the
maximally filled rows are cleared and current round is continued.
In a full game:
- if the sign "Fortune Gift" appears in the game field one  of  the
players by random choice wins immediately,
- if the sign "Fortune Mockery" appears in the game field, all  the
cards of one player are cleared and current round is continued.

WINNINGS
     In a standard game player wins when he fills one of  the  rows
of his cards. In the case of one winner:
- if the player fills the upper row of the card then  bank  refunds
him the price of his cards,
- if the player fills the middle row of the card  then  he  gets  a
half of the bank,
- if the player fills the lower row of the card  then  he  gets the
whole bank,
- if several rows are filled simultaneously the lower row  has  the
priority.
In the case when several players filled their rows simultaneously:
- the player who filled the lower row is considered a winner,
- if several players have filled middle (or lower) row the winnings
are shared between them
- if the player(s) fills the  upper  row  of  the  card  then  bank
refunds the price of his(their) cards,
- if several rows are filled simultaneously the lower row  has  the
priority.
     In a full game the player wins when he  fills  all  his  cards.
After this he gets everything from the bank. If several players have
filled their cards simultaneously the winnings are shared between them.

GAME FINISH
     The game finishes when
- one of the players runs out of money (in this case bank is shared 
     equally by the players),
- time limit has gone,
- Esc is pressed or New Game is selected from the Main Menu.
