bottom - of the enemy health. 



   If you find yourself the winner, it will take away all the 
money loser, as well as part of

moped, if it has. If you lose, then
you have to first take away all
value and money, and then - GAME OVER.


   The first thing I advise you to
find a bully. For 5 'it will send
You to the snake. Once he
it does, it can be a good beat - will regain
one of the parts for mopeds, and spent the money. Then look
Snake, he needs to say that you
sent a man with chains. Snake
will tell you where you can buy
wheel moped. Refer to
him again and he'll tell you
where to get a wrench (not
key you do not collect a moped).


   Some parts of the moped hidden in secluded areas of the city,
so look for them there. Part
details can get in several ways, for example, the Snake
beat is optional. When
Your strength will come to an end,
back up at the bar (the key
"Up"). Do not forget from time to
Time tinkled his favorite, or she will be nervous.


          Good luck!
