To start your adventure in the great country of Egypt, type Pharaoh

The program will automatically recognise if you possess :

- An EGA card
- A Hercules card
- An analogue joystick
- An AMSTRAD joystick
- A compatible MICROSOFT mouse
- An AMSTRAD mouse

You can choose to play with a joystick, a mouse or the keyboard
at the same time.

To use :

- the KEYBOARD : press spacebar
- the JOYSTICK : press the fire button
- the MOUSE : press the left mouse button

If you don't have any of these options you can also play the
game with a CGA card and keyboard for example.

How to play the game with the keyboard:

- move the cursor with the four arrow keys.
- confirm with the spacebar.
- movements become more precise if you hold down the
left 'SHIFT' key.

- to turn off and on the sound during the game press 'S'.


ATTENTION !!! : the program will recognize these options only
if you have initialised correctly as follows:

*** EGA CARD ***

- verify if the switches on your card are in the correct positions.
- with some compatible computers it is neccessary to
initialise the EGA BIOS ( on the AMSTRAD type DISPLAY EGA ).

*** ANALOGUE JOYSTICK ***

- you need to have an analogue joystick.
- connect your joystick to the joystick card before playing.

*** JOYSTICK AMSTRAD ***

- You connect the joystick.

*** COMPATIBLE MICROSOFT AND AMSTRAD MOUSE ***

Before playing you must :

- connect the mouse.
- initialise the mousedriver ( MOUSE.COM or MOUSE.SYS )



If your game does't detect your HARDWARE ( this can happen with
certain PC's which are not a 100 % compatible ) you've got another chance:

Tell your computer which option is desired:

- E for EGA card
- J for an analogue joystick
- M for a mouse
- C for a CGA card

If you choose one of these options, you will have to
specify all desired options.


For example :

* EGA card : type -> PHARAOH E

* EGA card and ANALOGUE JOYSTICK : type -> PHARAOH E J

* EGA card and MOUSE : type -> PHARAOH E M

* EGA card and MOUSE and ANALOGUE JOYSTICK : type -> PHARAOH E J M
