Everything you could ever want to know about this disc but did
not know {[190,5,3] where to click }!
The five activities are linked by a theme - escorting my little chum
on a holiday. Having {[206,5,3] SET YOUR LEVEL } you will have to {[32,5,3] PACK A BAG }
{[57,5,3] SUPERVISE THE JOURNEY }, take care of my little chum on the {[86,5,3] BEACH }
in the {[110,5,3] MOUNTAINS } and the {[142,5,3] FOREST }.
Each section is adjusted according to the difficulty level set by the
user. The content of the beach & forest section can be changed by using
the simple {[167,5,3] EDITOR } to enter questions suited to the user.
A score is gained as you progress through the sections and is
reported at the end.
{[QUT,5,3] Lets do it... }
PACK A BAG
Click on the bag to close/open the zip. You should only let the
requested items fall in the bag. You lose points for packing
wrong items and will gain points for getting it right.
Pack 2 items on beginner level; 3 on middling and 4 on advanced.

SUPERVISE TRAVELING
The journey involves a trip in a taxi, train and bus. You simply
inform my little chum when the right vehicle comes along.
Beginners - only need to remember the colours in the right order.
Middling - sort out the order and remember the colours.
Advanced - read the text to find the coloursand order.

THE BEACH
A word (up to 8 letters long) is displayed on the competition
sign. You then have to select the buckets with the right letters
in the right order. Correct buckets will then build a sandcastle
for you.
A clock counts down to the high tide when the beach is flooded and
you have to leave. If you make a mistake a large wave will wash
away your attempt.

THE MOUNTAIN
While walking on a mountain my chum slips, falls and lands on a
convenient growth. You will have to pile up rocks to enable my chum
to climb down to safety. The rocks are numbered so you know which
is the right one. Beginners need to count up; middling and advanced
need to add up. Bonus points are awarded for doing this quickly.
{[001,5,3] Take me back from whence I came... }
THE FOREST
My little chum has got lost in the forest. He is in a clearing and
has the choice of three paths. Which way should he go? Answer the
question correctly and click on the indicated path to direct my little
chum to the next clearing. There are 10 clearings to get through.
The flowers indicate how far you have got. Use the editor to set
your own questions.
{[001,5,3] Take me back from whence I came... }
THE EDITOR
There is a simple editor which can be used to set your own word list
for the beach or quiz for the forest. My quiz provides some example
questions and ways of varying their presentation.
To enter the editor you need to click on the HELP button on the title
screen and then click the OK button with the Right Hand Mouse Button.
Choose to edit the Words or the Quiz by typing the number indicated
and pressing the Return key - the big one with the bent arrow on.
You continue doing this to select the list for each level and the
items to be changed. When you are finished enter 99 to save your
revised list. All of this can be done in a text editor/Word Processor.
You will find the data lists in the BITS directory.
