INSTRUCTIONS

How to play Little Knight Arthur

Move the little knight using joystick in port #2.

Your goal is to get through seven levels and eventually destroy your nemesis, Shamrock The Dragon. On the way, you will need to collect and use some weapons and figure out how to free some friends captured by Shamrock's evil gang which includes bats, spiders, snakes, and even some undead creatures!

Playing tips

The game is hard because it includes semi-random movement by the enemies and traps. Before moving you should be cautious and try to get a feel for the movement patterns featured in each level. In addition to caution and appropriate timing, you'll need a bit of luck to survive.

Collecting the golden chalices with letters can award you with an extra life!
