If you are reading this Readme file then you are already in the right directory to
run the game.

The game can be run in either a 640 by 480 window or in full-screen mode. The
graphics were developed for a 640 by 480 window, and will look the best when run
this way. On the other hand, text will be more readable in full-screen mode.

However, if you have a wide-screen monitor or laptop, you may not want to run in
full-screen mode. If your graphics card does not support the use of side-borders,
then the images will be streched to fill the screen, and will not look quite right.

By default, the game is ready to run in a window.

- To run the game in a windowed mode, double-click Master.exe and you're off to
  the races.

- To run the game in full-screen mode, first run Winsetup.exe and uncheck the
  "Run In A Window instead of fullscreen" checkbox, and then click "Save and Run".


Once the game is up, click on the Info button for help on how to operate the game.

It seems we need to drive into town to find the reason for the power outage.

The cursor will be set to the "look' mode. Left click to look at the popcorn, the
painting on the wall, and a couple of other things. It seems our protagonist likes
a bit of alcohol, and once hiked in the mountains of New Zealand. 

Slide the cursor to the top of the screen and the menu bar will slide into view.
Click on the backpack to view your inventory. Nothing in inventory but a pocketknife.
Right-click to close the inventory window.

Right click the mouse to cycle through the various cursors. When the cursor looks
like a little man, you can walk around the room. When it looks like a hand you can
interact with some of the items in the room. 

It's time to head into town. Click on the door and the adventure begins ...
