SHERLOCK 1.1
Distribution information
This is a game for the IBM PC family of compatible computers.
Sherlock is a game of deduction. It is your task, based upon the
information available in provided clues, to determine the locations
of 36 blocks. Every puzzle can be solved by using the clues to
eliminate possibilities until the location of a specific block can
be determined. Sherlock may be played by a SINGLE person, or a
TOURNAMENT may be set up, with each person in the TOURNAMENT
attempting to solve the same puzzle as quickly as possible. A
TIME LIMIT may be set if desired.
Program requirements:
IBM PC/XT/AT compatible.
EGA or VGA compatible display adapter (with a minimum of 128K
of RAM on the display adapter; early IBM EGA cards
will not work). It will NOT work on CGA, MDA, or
Hercules display adapters.
Microsoft compatible mouse.

The game package, which MUST include the files SHERLOCK.EXE (the game),
SHERLOCK.DOC, and REGISTER.DOC (the registration form) may be
freely copied and distributed. These three files may be re-archived
to better suit a given distribution system, but the files may not be
modified in any other way. No distributor may charge more than $6 for
the distribution of this program, and that fee in no way reduces the
shareware registration fee owed to the author by the user.
The entire contents of the four files SHERLOCK.EXE, SHERLOCK.DOC,
REGISTER.DOC, and VENDOR.DOC are:
