REDHOOK'S REVENGE!
Version 1.3
April 1, 1995
Copyright (c) 1995, ImagiSOFT, Inc.
All rights reserved.
WHAT IS SHAREWARE?
Shareware is a beautiful concept that gives you a chance to
"try" Redhook's Revenge and other programs before you "buy"
them. If you try Redhook's Revenge and continue to use it,
please send us the $19.95 registration fee and we will send
you the latest Deluxe Version of Redhook's Revenge.
BONUS FEATURES IN THE DELUXE VERSION
* Two additional players -- Five players in all! Do you
dare challenge the fearsome pirate Blackbeard, the most
famous pirate who ever lived? Can you beat Poseidon the
parrot, who is the most skillful player of all! Playing
all five players doubles the number of battles between
players, which makes the game far more exciting to play!
* Blackbeard talks in the Deluxe Version if you have a
Soundblaster compatible sound card.
* Triple the number of questions and game boards! Will you
find treasure or death in the Mermaid Isles? Will you
find the sunken treasure at Coral Lagoon, or get hung up
at Gallows Point? How will you fare attacking the
richest port of all, Kingstown, with her 25,000 doubloons
on the Golden Isle? How much treasure will you find on
Treasure Island? Order and see!

THANK YOU!
We at ImagiSOFT enjoyed developing Redhook's Revenge, and
hope you like it as much as we do. Mike Prestwich
researched Redhook, developed the concept, wrote the
documentation, and wrote the script. We would like to thank
Robert Louis Stevenson, from whom we borrowed generously
from his classic work, Treasure Island. Most of the
historical information about pirates, ships, weapons, and
events came from the books "The Funnel of Gold" by Mendel
Peterson, and "The Sack of Panama" and "The Treasure of the
Concepcion" by Peter Earle.
David Sanders developed many new assembly language routines
to program Redhook; it is his remarkable talent that makes
Redhook (and our other products) work so well on your
computer. Russ Chancellor's extraordinary artwork was drawn
by hand on the screen, not scanned, using Deluxe Paint II.
Robert Allen composed the music which adds so much to the
atmosphere of Redhook. Lastly, our quality control staff
gave Redhook a thorough work out before it was released.
Of course, without the financial support of our loyal
customers, Redhook's Revenge wouldn't be have been created.
We appreciate you most of all!
