General tips

The first aspects of the game you should MASTER are the JOYSTICK controls.  The
highly interactive nature of the game  is  required  because  of  some  of  the
COMPLEX MOVES the main character has to perform.  A high level of competence at
the controls will enhance your game play CONSIDERABLY.

Because of the adventure elements, our second suggestion is that you should get
into the  habit of RECORDING what happens on each screen.  This will enable you
to obtain HIGHER SCORES with repeated play.

The last point is, NEVER take  anything  FOR  GRANTED  - some things are not as
they appear.  Be curious, nosey, etc. and examine everything.
