RIK THE ROADIE
==============

LOADING INSTRUCTIONS
Type LOAD"" then ENTER.


You are Rik, roadie to the world famous pop group ALTERNATIVE ROCK. In order for 
Alternative Rock to stay popular, you as their roadie, must get all their equipment to 
the gig, take it into the hall, and set up the sound levels before the gig starts.


STAGE 1 

You have 200 miles to go to reach the site of th next gig. You have only 6 hours to 
get there, set the gear up, and check the sound levels. Get to the gig as quickly as 
possible, avoiding all oncoming traffic. Hitting anything will cost you time, as your
van is repaired.

KEYS 

O — Left 
P — Right 
Q — Accelerate 
A — Brake


STAGE 2 

Now you are at the gig, you have to carry the equipment from the van into the hall. As 
amplifiers and speakers are very heavy, you cannot hold them for very long. Move as fast 
as possible before your endurance runs out, and you drop the very heavy (and expensive) 
equipment.

KEYS

O — Move left foot 
P — Move right foot


STAGE 3 

Finally, the equipment is set up, and all that remains is to set up the power levels. 
Too low, and the audience cannot hear the group. Too high, and the fuses blow. Keep the 
levels in the red, and soon as the optimum level is reached, the next sound channel is 
automatically selected. Once all four channels have been set, you can sit back, relax 
and watch your group the world famous 'Alternative Rock' perform live on stage.

KEYS

* — Power Up 
? — Power Down


Once all three stages have been completed, then you have to transport the equipment 
to the next gig, with less time to complete it in!
