Hello,
Experimenting in a game is always a main factor, keep in mind that in a
mainstream game you won't find a learn game pictures feature. We're following
the
same way, and i believe if you experiment with it, you'll get much more than

Hi Ian.
treasuremania's actually quite simple once you pick the sounds up. You are
going along in your boat from left to right with clifs at either end. You
can distinguish where the cliffs are by the long, gritty, waves breaking on
a beach type sound they make.
the main thing you need to do
no. But in a mainstream game, you can see screen shots, trailers, and a lot
more details.

I always appreciate a sound describing feature and if I have no trouble

to have.

explode, just one of each to let you know what to expect for other machines,
bombs and explosions etc.
