The Game
The player controls a skateboarder. The object of the game is to perform stunts
accumulating points for which skate park tickets are obtained. In the parks you
compete to gain medals and cash. Cash may be used to purchase better equipment
(e.g. boards, shoes, pads, protective helmets) which improves the performance
of the player.
After loading press FIRE to begin the game.
You then skate around "Skate City" visiting the four shops and four parks.
There are four parks in Skate City each of which may be visited only once on
each level of the game. The parks are Downhill, Jump, Ramp and Slalom. Tickets
are used as the parks are visited (these are indicated under "T" on the
screen). Extra tickets are awarded at 5,000, 15,000, 25,000, 35,000 points,
etc. Medals are awarded for good performance in the parks with cash prizes and
bonus points. After visiting each park a status sheet is displayed indicating
medals awarded.
When in the vicinity of a shop an icon to the right of the screen flashes
alternately with the price. These icons represent helmets, shoes, skateboards
and pads. The level of equipment is indicated alongside the appropriate icon.
Approaching the counter at the correct place either results in a "SALE" or "NO
SALE" message. If a purchase is successful cash is deducted from the player
(display indicated by $ sign). Bonus points are awarded for remaining cash at
the end of the game.
If the player does not enter a park within the time limit displayed on the bar
timer he is pursued by killer bees. These become more dangerous if the player
does not enter a park quickly transforming into various objects.
Extra points may be gained by passing over certain hidden locations. Dollar
bills on the road may be collected.
The player should avoid contact with other characters appearing on the screen.
Included on side 2 of this cassette is a recording of the original soundtrack
music from the coin op machine. Load in the game as instructed and when fully
loaded, remove the cassette and insert it into your HiFi player. Rewind the

scintillating reality to make this game an absolutely captivating experience.
