Full Instructions
Introduction
With the coming Ice Age, Ugh knows he must stock up with food. Stealing Pterry the Pterodactyl's eggs seemed a good idea though... until Pterry started dropping hunks of rock onto Ugh's head! Things might not have been too bad, he may even have sneaked off with his winter store, when suddenly Rex the Tyrannosaurus came to Pterrv's assistance!
Quite the most exciting and original game for the Dragon 32 or Tandy Color. Super graphics and animation make Ugh! a must for serious game players from 2 to 102!
Game Objective
Ugh must run from his cave at the foot of the hill up to Pterry's nest at the top of the hill and dodge Pterry's stones as he does so. He has a spear to defend himself with against either Pterry or Rex. But he can only carry one spear at a time! If he needs another then he has to return to his cave to get one. When he's got one of Pterry's eggs, Ugh has to get it back to his cave, but to pick up an egg he has to drop his spear, and leaves himself defenceless for the run back to his cave!
Game Controls
1 - Left/Down, 2 - Right/Down, 9 - Left/Up, 0 - Right/Up, : - Stop Running, Fire - Throw Spear
