BSY present ... THE ADVENTURES OF BIG WILL AND STICKY TROLL PART 1 - THE PUB QUIZ ----------------------------------------------------------------- This is the DEMO version of BSY's latest game, and as such contains only 3 levels. The full version will have 20+ screens, spread over five different zones, plus end-of-level guardians, bonus rounds, AND an official Plough Inn pub quiz, along with extra sound effects and music. NOTE: This demo requires 1 Mb of chip ram to run. The full version will require 2 Mb of chip ram, so you will need an A1200, A4000, or other suitably expanded machine. This disk is public domain - it may be copied and passed on to anyone who wants it, but this text file MUST be included on any copy. Big Will and Sticky Troll - The story so far... ----------------------------------------------- For years, the unbeatable team of Big Will and Sticky Troll have reigned supreme at the Plough Inn quiz nite. However, somewhere, Dark Forces are massing against them, and a devious plot is being hatched... In a last-ditch effort to top the pub quiz league, the treacherous `Sunny Bluebirds' have kidnapped Sticky Troll, and scattered Big Will's precious beer tokens across the four corners of the globe... As Big Will, you must visit each of the four corners, collect the tokens, rescue Sticky Troll from the `Bluebirds' grasp, get back to the pub, and win the quiz - before 9:30pm... Each zone features it's own brand of nasties - along with the ubiquitous `Blubirds' ... along the way you will encounter Nora Bernardo's walking boots, possessed skiing penguins, the evil Doctor Whould's clockwork fez, cannibalistic snowmen, psychotic mummies, and many more... To complete each screen, you must collect 10 beer tokens before locating the finish sign, which will transport you onto the next level. You begin the game with 3 lives. A life is lost when either: i) Big Will falls into the water (he's not a very good swimmer!), or ii) all his energy (denoted by hearts in the bottom right corner of the screen) is lost through contact with the nasties. However never fear! A continue option allows you to restart the game on the current level when all 3 lives are gone. In the full version of the game, these continues will be limited to 3... BUT, due to our generous nature here at BSY Towers, in this demo they are totally limitless. Handy hints: Keep a look out for bouncy bits! Beware! Penguins and mummies like to push you off your perch! Wassocks can be quite useful! Plug yer joystick in Port 1, good luck, and ... SWING YER BEARDS! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- This game is dedicated to Joanne Clifton - one day you'll learn how to spell `computer'... -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Registration information: If you would like to own the full version of this game (who wouldn't?!), then it should be available in early 1994...
