INSTALLATION:

Please delete version 1 of SameGame if installed. The databases are NOT

compatible! Then install normally.

INSTRUCTIONS:

The aim of SameGame is to clear the screen, by removing two or more

immediately adjacent blocks of the same pattern. When no more blocks

can be removed, the game ends.

Score is calculated from the number of blocks removed. Long strings of

blocks score more than short strings. Therefore, the aim is to form long

strings of touching, similar blocks, and remove the string of blocks.

The menu of the game has the following options:

NEW - start a new game

INFO - show the current game information

SCORES - show the top score list

RESET - reset the high score list

UNDO - undo the last move

REPLAY - replay the game from the beginning, or last saved state

(game is saved when program exits)

PREFS - used to enter player initials, and select block patterns

ABOUT - displays the about box (author info)

EXIT - exits the game
