ONE PLAYER GAME.  Selecting this option (by
pressing the fire button) will present you with
another choice  of  three levels  of computer
competition.  After your selections have been made
you will be asked to enter our name.  Play will
begin when you press the return key.

TWO PLAYER GAME.  After selecting this option each
opponent is asked to enter their name. Play will
begin when the return key is pressed for player
two.

ONE ON ONE (1 Player)  or (2 Player).  This is the
Penalty shot version of  the game where you play
against the computer or another player. You will
again be prompted for your name(s) before play
will begin.

PLAYING THE 3 PERIOD GAME:
The joystick in port #2 is the joystick that
controls game selections.
Player number one controls the  joystick plugged
into port #2!!!
When the one or  two player game is selected,
player number one controls the black players while
player number two or the computer controls the red
players.
You control the dark colour player on each team.
Other players will chase the puck if it is nearby.
If they can reach the puck, control is switched to
that player.   When you pass to your teamates you
assume control of  that player.  If you go off
screen, your control will be switched to the next
available team player on screen.  The puck CANNOT
be picked up while you are holding down the fire
button.  Shooting or passing the puck is done by
using the fire button. The longer the button is
held down, the higher and farther the puck will
travel.
The goalie is controlled simultaneously with your
defenceman. For the goalie to stop the puck,
position him and do one of the following:
a) press the fire button and push the joystick UP
to make a save on a shot that is OFF the ice.
b) press the fire button and push the joystick DOWN
to make a save on a shot that is ON the ice surface.
c) press the fire button and push the joystick LEFT
or RIGHT. This will usually allow you to make a save
on either type of shot. No one is perfect!
You MUST attempt a save on a shot in order to stop
the puck. If you do not, the puck will score EVEN IF
YOU ARE IN FRONT OF THE PUCK WHEN IT ENTERS THE GOAL.

Bodychecks are delivered as follows: while pressing
the fire button, stand over your opponent and then
release the button. The longer the fire button is
depressed, the harder the check. Penalties result in
a face-off in the offending players end, giving your
opponent a scoring opportunity. Fighting penalties
result in a penalty shot being awarded to EACH team.
A face-off at centre ice follows all penalty shots.

Note the effect of the following keys:
  Run/Stop: game pause and restart
  While in the pause mode:
     Fl = fast action
     F3 = medium
     F5 = slow
     F8 = reset to selection screen

ONE ON ONE GAME PLAY
Player one, whose name appears on the left of the
screen, starts as the goalie. When ready, press the
fire button. This will start a 10 second countdown
that is noted in the lower left corner of the screen.
If the timer counts down to zero and there has not
been a shot, play is ended and positions are
reversed. The shooter controls the height of the shot
by the length of tine the fire button is depressed
before being released. A very fast touch on the
button is required to keep the puck on the ice. As
the puck is being moved from side to side, release
the button when the puck position corresponds to the
position on net you wish the shot to go. For example,
if the puck was at the extreme left when you released
the fire button, the shot would go towards a point
just inside the left goal post.

As in the regular games, goalie movements are directed
by both the fire button and the joystick. Move the
goalie into position. While pressing the button, a low
save can be made by pushing the joystick down-right or
down-left; or side to side; or the save can be made
high by up-left or up-right.
There are 5 confrontations in each penalty shot match.
Good Luck !!!!
