Description
You have to have 2 to 4 players (they don't assume the
computer can outwit a human so they pit friend against freind.) Each player is
a dog. Each player selects an object at the beginning of the game while the
other players hide their eyes. The object of the game is to move around the
game board and buy/obtain the correct four items and get to the checkpoint
before any other player. If there are fewer than four players, the computer
chooses the remaining objects. The keys to use are the numeric keypad ones,
with the 2468 being arrows and 5 synonymous with . When your turn
starts, hit 5 to stop the spinner to determine how many spaces you can move
(die role essentially.) Then move around to where you want to go. There are
six kinds of stores where you can buy things, each store selling three
different items. The stores are represented by symbols so you know what type
you're entering before you do. There are four quadrants and one of each store
in each quadrant. To enter a store, move your piece into the store and press 5
(you can end your movement by moving into a store/other area or running out of
spaces you have to roll on the sidewalk and pressing 5.) Once you enter a
store you have to buy something (unless you don't have enough Foobles (unit of
currency) or you select an item that is out of stock.) You can only carry
four items. You can see how many items are right/wrong at the checkpoints. You
can get rid of all of your items at once by donating them to charity (at the
place represented by the heart sign). You can sell items one at a time at the
corner pawn shops (three dots represent them) for half their value and buy
pawned items for 3/4 value at the same places (if they're available.) Now, you
have two lockers, one of which contains the item you selected at the beginning
of the game...
