Uxb === Introduction ------------ A nail-biting test of skill and nerves! It's up to you to defuse the unexploded bomb. Game Objective -------------- As a member of the renowned Uxb team, you have been assigned the task of defusing an old war-time bomb. Unfortunately this is a type of bomb you have *never* seen before and there is *no* documentation available to aid you. Therefore you must rely on your skill, intuition and good luck! To aid you in your task you have a toolkit, but owing to limited working space in the vicinity of the bomb, you may only choose six items. The toolkit consists of: small spanner, copper hammer, cold chisel, special fluid, sidecutters, stethoscope, socket set, pliers, hydraulic jack, special spanner, insulating tape and small screwdriver. Important --------- To see the list of options, type MENU (ENTER). If your nerves betray you, you could try asking for HELP! An important feature is that, if you unfortunately meet your demise, you may restart from your last move, or, if you feel you were proceeding incorrectly, you may start again.
