Monster Hunt

A grid is displayed on the screen and in each square of it a monster is hidden. You can display two of the monsters at a time by entering their co-ordinates. If the two you choose are identical you score a point; otherwise they will vanish. The object is to find all the pairs in as few attempts as possible.

The program is listed in two parts which should be saved on tape consecutively. The first can then be RUN with CHAIN"" and the second can then be LOADed from the first.

Monster Hunt was written for the BBC B(1.2) by Steve Lucas of Cheadle Hulme, Cheshire.
