Hogan & Col. Klink <(*--------------------------------------------------------------------------*)> Tapper is a cool game with very good graphics. Unfortunatly the main theme behind the game is a little worn out, but it is one of the best games to come out in a while. Introduction ------------ Object of the game: Serve your customers before they beat you to a pulp. You can keep them happy if yoou serve them before they come to your end of the serving table/bar. Controls -------- Joystick, move it in the direction you want to go (duh!) and press button to serve beer. Keyboard, A, Z up and down, L, ; side to side. You must type in caps. Space bar to serve the beer. Hint: the joystick control in this game really sucks, so use the keyboard unless you like being frustrated. In the joystick mode, your guy won't move at times. Play of the Game ---------------- As you start out you are in a saloon from the old West. As the customers form a line go to the tap on the right side of the screen & depress the space bar, a beer will go down to a customer. If you serve all of the customers you go on to the next screen. Some customers are more thursty than others and will stay & send the glass back to you. You must catch the glass or your turn will end. If the customer is a slop, and spills some of his beer, run over an wipe it up. Can-Can girls will come & slow the progress of the line, allowing you to catch up. After you finish the first screen, you will get 2 customers in each line then you will goto a cute little intermission, which is a variation of the pea under the shell game. The second screen you serve some sort of athletes at a game etc. I don't know what the people are in the 3rd screen. Are they sailors?? r Hints ----- If you walk to the end of the bar to pick up the mess, and you are in a hurry to get back to your end, to pick up more glasses or whatever, just press A or Z and you will save the time of walking back. Don't let your customers get to the end of the bar, or they will slide you into the wall. If you start filling a glass of brew & you discover that there are no customers at that bar (you idiot), just walk up, or down, and the mug will disappear. You can go from the upper most bar to the lowermost bar, by moving up, or from the lower one to the upper one, by moving down. Saves alot of time. If a customer drinks his cup at the bar, send him another right away, this will get rid of him sooner so you can go onto the next level If you are going to be flooded with cups from two different bars, run forward and collect as many as you can, at one bar, then run to the other and do the same, repeat untill you have 'em all. <*:*-----------------------------------+-----------------------------------*:*>
