INSTRUCTIONS

THE GAME
When Boris set off the first detonator, an irreversible chain
reaction was initiated, with each fuse lasting only nine seconds.
If you can guide Sam Short to the detonator - before the bomb
explodes - he will disable it.  Unfortunately you'll still be in
a bit of a bind because Boris has ensured that another detonator
in that same location will become live, leaving Sam with - you've
guessed - nine seconds to defuse it.  When Sam has defused all
the detonators, he will - being a good-hearted chap move on to
another beleagured spot. The rest is up to you.

Before the start of each game, Sam must enter a security
clearance code to arrive at a particular location.  The security
code for the TAJ MAHAL is 000.
