 **1. Getting Started**
 **==================**

 **a. How to Play Bomblastic**
 **-------------------------**

        BOMBLASTIC is a two-player strategy game where each player
        tries to capture the most board squares by surrounding
        the other player's pieces. If a player's bomb is between
        two of the opponent's, that bomb is then exploded
        and the opponent's bomb replaces or captures the square.

        The game ends when no valid moves can be made, and the
        winner is the player with the highest score. The all-time
        high score is saved, and can be reset at any time.

        To begin playing Bomblastic, click on a square. The
        computer opponent will then take its turn, and so on.

        The goal of the game is to capture as many squares as
        possible while avoiding placing your bombs between two
        of your opponent's bombs.

        The registered version offers three levels of game play,
        Novice, Medium, or Advanced.

 **======================================**

        If you have a problem, chances are you can fix it without
        needing to get help. Try the following:

        If the game says you have insufficient memory, or if it crashes,
        try rebooting without loading any TSR programs, such as your
        disk cache.

        If the screen is to dark to see, try turning up the brightness
        on your monitor.
