Puncman is really too slow as a game and the "experts" would have preferred to carry a full stop round the screen faster (even if they still took a long time to decide where it went). Read Review
Full Instructions
Introduction
Puncman has three programs to help learn punctuation in a really enjoyable way.
- Program 1 (INSTRUCT) shows you what to do.
- PUNCMAN1 uses only Capital Letters and full stops, with seven short stories. Watch Nosher eat them up, then you put them back using the four 'arrow' cursor keys; press D to drop a letter in place.
- PUNCMAN2 uses Capitals, full stops, commas, and question marks. Again seven stories.
Difficulty Level
The story pages become more difficult according to their number (Ages 8 upward).
Press ESCAPE to give up and choose a different story page.
