FlagSweeper V1.0 (Nov 2003)

This a small, simple and addictive game inspired by an old Amiga-PD game
called "Flag(catcher)". You shouldn't confuse this game with "Minesweeper"
games, even if there are similarities. I personally consider "Minesweeper"
to be a lousy game idea and it has in no way influenced this creation.
How to Play:
=======
The objective is to locate a hidden flag on a board of tiles.
To help there are hints to be found indicating either the direction (arrow)
or distance (step) to the flag.
To make things harder there are bombs that will close all opened tiles,
unless you have shields. Each bomb consumes one shield. Shields can be
found and one is awarded after the completion of each level.
By each level the number of hints will decrease while the bombs will
increase in numbers.
You start with 25 "Moves" and fliping a tile cost 1 Move, except for the
"MultiMoves" that cost 3,5,7 or 9 moves...these tiles will contain in
corresponding numbers 1,2,3 or 4 bonuses (Step, Arrow, Moves and BombHint).
The "MultiMoves" NEVER contains a bomb or the flag.
However!...they may be blocked by a "Wall", so picking a "MultiMove"
is a gamble. The level-info screen will inform you have many walls there
are on any given board.
Bomb hints (red numbers) indicate the distance to the nearest bomb, and is
fairly usless information on earlier levels, but as you advance and the
bombs become more common, thier importance grow.
Distances are measured as straight lines or "Knight" moves (L-type path,as
in Chess), never diagonally.
