Full Instructions
Repton Thru Time
Where did the real Repton come from? Does he have an Egyptian mummy? Is he the real Jack the Repper?
Now all is revealed in this new 40-screen adventure from pre-history to the future.
Chase from pyramids to skyscrapers as Repton collects treasure and avoids Mummies and Martians.
Only you can help Repton thru time!
Playing The Game
The object of the game is to complete all 40 screens without using any passwords.
You must carefully determine the route through each screen in order to diffuse the timebomb by passing over it.
Before this, however, you must:
- collect all the diamonds
- collect the crown
- kill all the monsters
Each screen has a time limit and, if you do not complete the screen in time the bomb will explode and you lose a life.
There are five files on the cassette, each with eight screens. The file "PREHIST" is automatically loaded at the start of the game.
To load any of the other files simply select the L option at the main game screen.
