Hogbear is an adventure game fashioned after the game of CASTLE. We have
added what we feel are interesting twists to the game. The monsters
can be reincarneted at random. If you quit the game without saving
it, when you restart the game all the treasures and weapons needed
to kill the monsters are relocated in the rooms (the furniture is
left, just the ARTICALS are moved). This can lead to an unwinnable
game (Maybe), if the monster and the weapon needed to kill them
end up in the same room. If you are fast enough you might win.
Then again you might not.
The directions for play are contained in a file named MANUAL.DOC.
This file is ready to print, just enter the command PRINT MANUAL.DOC.
You will need two pages for the manual.
You have gotten this far. Take a minute to be sure that your disk
contains the following files:
HOGBEAR2.EXE The Game
HOGBEAR.PIC The only picture ever made of the dreaded HOGBEAR
END. PIC Win the game and this is your reward
*.SCR (9 FILES) USED BY THE HOGBEAR TO GET THINGS STARTED.

HOGBEAR creates and destroys a file on your disk with the extension
.FIL <filename.FIL> . We recomend that you install HOGBEAR on its
own disk or sub-directory where there are no other files with this
same extension, as they will be destroyed also. This game can be played
by only one person per disk or sub-directory at a time. If you let
someone else play your disk, your game progress will be lost.
This game is placed in distribution as SHAREWARE. This means if you
play the game and like it we expect you to tell us about it with
MONEY. We ask a modest donation of $10.00 to show us that you appreciate
our efforts. We will work harder to produce a better version "REAL SOON
NOW", the more people we hear from. This donation to our worthy cause
will entitle you to one upgrade as soon as it is finished.
We have tested the game for several months using many testors. We
realize that try as we might we may have left some unforseen
anomolies in the game. If you find a strange or unusual occurence
(BUG!!!) while playing the game leave a message on COMPUSERV
73377,1345 or GENIE k.seal.
Please feel free to place this game (in its entirety ) on any bulletin
board where you feel others copy it and enjoy it. That is the purpose of
HOGBRARC.EXE a self-extracting archive file perfect for uploading to a
bulliten board, or passing to a friend.
Thanx a bunch for all your help and GET THE HOGBEAR !!!
