Knot in 3D (c) 1983 New Generation Software  
-------------------------------------------

INTRODUCTION

The aim of the game is to avoid collision with you own green
or yellow trail, and those of up to four chasers (red/blue),
as you rush through an empty 3 dimensional space. As more
trails are laid it becomes increasingly difficult to thread
you way through the KNOTs created.

LOADING

Use filename "KNOT". The program will load in two parts. If
any difficulty is experienced consult your Spectrum manual.

THE GAME

On loading, the configuration of the controls and modes of
play are set up by questions and answers. Exit from
demonstration is via BREAK. The keyboard controls used are
the CURSOR keys. A short press will turn you in the
appropriate direction. A longer press will turn you once
more. You must release the key before you can turn in that
direction again, A hold facility is available; H holds, and
S restarts.

The score panel below the screen indiactes:

(a) Your Score   : One point for each move forward. As the
                   markers are passed a new phase is
                   entered; the space is cleared and another
                   chaser introduced.
(b) Density      : Indicates how dense the space is with
                   tracks and therefore whether large voids
                   are still available.
(c) Faults       : A fault is indicated whenever you pass
                   through a track. They are continuously
                   collected if you travel along the
                   existing path.
(d) Phase Number : On the left hand side, indicates the
                   number of chasers.

TACTICS

As the space begins to fill, there may be times of apparent
inactivity, but it is at this time that the style of game is
created. Continuous travel in one direction generates an
impenetrable wall that makes the game more difficult later.
