Quack-a-Jack by Amsoft

Synopsis:

Sorry either we do not have an official synopsis for this title or one was never actually written by the game developer, this is particularly true in the case of game packages that have multiple titles in one box. If you own this game, have access to the synopsis (usually written on the back of the box) and would like to submit it to CPC Zone for inclusion on this page, please post on our forums.

Original Instructions

Note: Many of these instructions have been OCRed and may not have been proofread, as a result spelling errors, broken English and grammar are likely.

LOADING INSTRUCTIONS

Reset computer by holding down CTRL,SHIFT and ESC keys together in that order. Place cassette into Datacorder. Rewind tape to beginning then press STOP/EJECT once. Press CTRL and small ENTER keys simultaneously then press PLAY followed by any key. This program will take about 6 and a half minutes to load.

CONTROLS

1 + START GAME
2 + SET LEVEL
3 + DEFINE KEYS Cursor keys move Duck
Z and X keys move Flagstones or use AMSOFT JY1 Joystick.

Use Fire Button plus pushing Joystick Left or Right to move Flagstones.

You are Red Jack, Pirate King and the most stylish character in Fandonia. Having just found the Palace Treasury empty, Red Jack decides to investigate the dreaded Palace Dungeons, only to find himself trapped!

Your mission - SURVIVAL, ACCUMULATION OF WEALTH, SCRAMBLING EGGS.

Fight your way through 16 dungeon levels each occupied by weird and wonderful creatures, vampire rabbits, prawns, snails etc.

Avoid the chasers and their cooking pots or you could end up on the dinner menu. The monsters rather carelessly leave their wages lying around so help yourself.

The dungeon has Terraductile eggs scattered around it. Allowing them to hatch is not a good idea, so make sure you jump on them in time!

As you leap from flagstone to flagstone they crumble behind you leaving impassable gaps in the floor.

Luckily Red Jack has a few tricks of his own, like walking through walls and even making the dungeon floor shift beneath his feet.

Use AMSOFT JYl Joystick or user defined keys to control Red Jack.

"Quack A Jack" is based loosely on situations and characters in the fantasy role playing game 'Fandonia' by Steve Cox.
