===================================================================



The Wild West was crawling with outlaws

and the lowest of the low. Good Sheriffs

and Town Marshalls were hard to find,

mainly because they survived for hours

rather than days before being transported

to Boot Hill with a bullet in their back. As

the Lawlessness grew the Bounty Hunters

came into existence, pitting their excellence

with a handgun against the bandits for the

Dead or Alive awards. Not surprisingly

these crimebusters of old did not waste

time on the 'Alive' qualification when they

could blast the villain into oblivion with just

one round of lead.



Texan Clint Westband was the king of these

Bounty Hunters. The sight of his well worn

six shooters hugging his tall lean frame sent

the lawbreakers scurrying for cover. They

hoped to avoid the focus of his steely blue

eyes between narrowing slits, which meant

sure death for the subject of his attention.



Clint is preparing for his largest bounty to

date - clearing up the outlaws in the

five toughest renegade towns

in the Wild West.



Clint will gather bounty and clear up the town by shooting

all of the bandits he can lay his hands on. This will meet the

ultimate challenge to his powers of reaction and execution.

He will need all the help he can get, so all flashing items

must be bought. Other items that can be bought by Clint

crouching on them and pressing the fire button are:

A. DYNAMITE - destroys all objects except Hornets,

   Ghosts and Scorpions.

B. MONEY BAG - increases bounty.

C. EXTRA AMMO - replenishes Clint when his gun belt

   gets low.

D. KEY - opens doors when no bandits are present to

   reveal an object.

E. JACKET - protects Clint from bullets and dangerous

   objects.

F. CHARM - increase fighting energy.

G. WHISKEY BOTTLE - give fighting energy a 'pick-me-up'.

H. HAMBURGER - gives Clint a small increase in fighting

   energy.

I. CRUCIFIX - destroys ghosts.

J. POTION - kills scorpions.

K. HONEY POT - traps and kills hornets.

These collected objects are shown at the bottom of the

screen and are used by hitting the space bar.

If Clint didn't already have enough trouble with the

outlaws, he has to shoot or blow up various dangerous

objects that fly towards him during the game:

   Bottles       Bombs       Arrows       Daggers

   Horseshoes    Barrels     Dynamite     Fireballs

   Wagonwheels   Hornets     Scorpions    Ghosts

You know the score - IT'S KILL OR BE KILLED.... So get out

there Clint, all the townksfolk are counting on you.
