   (C) 1990 BY GOLDEN TRIANGLE

    This is the next one, and probably on
this time the best
version of the Tetris game, but this
version is different from everyone else
antecedent to what is here
two-person play possible
at the same time.
    When starting the game it appears
MENU.  We will stop at each
point.  Menu items are selected
numbers from 0 to 5.
1. Type of game.
    By clicking on one you
you can choose the type of game: either
normal Tetris, maximum
close to classic,
or Tetris-2. (about the rules of the game
Tetris, and about deviations from
classics will be in Tetris 2
detailed below).
2.
    At this point you can
choose either an independent game
two players (INDEPENDENT
PLAYERS), or identical mode
figures, i.e.  both players
will fall absolutely
identical figures.  This mode
very convenient to use for
competitionsbetween players
because  the result will be
completely adequate to the skill
players.
  
    By pressing 3 you will select
type of figures. There are two types in total, and
installed after downloading
standard figures (7 PIECES).
By clicking on 3 you will increase it
the number is doubled. Which of these
you can see it
starting the game.

4. Sound design

computer music
coprocessor should be installed
point so that in this line
featured SOUND 128K, then
during the game you will listen
TOUCHING THE SOUL melodies on

5. Key redefinition
    It would seem that here
getting confused is the hardest thing, but
there is a slight difference here from
other Tetris games. UNDER THE KEY
FIRE is taking a turn here
figures, not like many
accustomed to relying on a piece throw,
and the rest is redefinition
The key is no different from
some unofficial
standards that themselves
set up on the field
programming.

0. START THE GAME.
    When you press zero there will be
two “glasses” are drawn and for
start the game you should press
to "fire".

    Now for those new to
Tetris we will tell you the rules
games.

    Into the glass spontaneously
Various figures fall.   you
partially you canmanage them
movements.  You can move
figure to the right, left,
turn counterclockwise
arrows and throw down.  If
any of the rows will be
completely filled with pieces from
there will be no figures in the row
one space, then this row
will disappear and you will receive
a certain number of points. So
YOUR GOAL IS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE
fill in like this
wash rows.   The game will be
finished when your glass
will be filled to the top and there
won't fit another falling one
figure.
    If you chose normal
Tetris game, then before the game you
you will be prompted to enter the level
difficulties from 1 to 8 (8 is the most
complex, i.e.   the figures will be
fall with greater speed).
    If you chose Tetris-2, then
You will be given for each level
some task, it will be
written before the start
next level, for example
maybe there is a task to destroy everything
already standing bricks and at the beginning
games at this level the glass will be
not empty, as usual, but already there
there will be bricks. But it happens more often
the task is simply to erase how much -
then rows, and it becomes more complicated
because the rows will need to be erased
not one at a time, but in some way
quantity, for example 2, 3,
and sometimes four rows at once.
Information about the number of rows,
intended for erasing
is between two glasses
and every glasscorresponds
the number that is closest to
him in one line with
number of lines.
