→Introduction
Certain keys on both sides of the keyboard are designed as directional keys. Movement on the screen can also be controlled by the Wired Remote Controllers or from the keyboard. With the controllers. you simply move the lever in the direction you want your snake to go. The snakes cannot be moved diagonally.
===Getting Started===
After you select the module, the Players selection list appears. Press '''1''' for a one-player game or '''2''' for a two-player game.
If you haven't played Hustle before, you can see a short demonstration of the features in this module. Just wait a few seconds without pressing any key and a sample of Hustle begins.
When you finish looking at the demonstration, press any key to return to the Players selection list. (The computer returns to the Players selection list automatically, if you wait for the specified playing time to run out.) You are now ready to try a game for yourself.
If you press '''1''' while the Players selection list is shown, you can choose one of three versions of Hustle, or press '''AID''' for help. If you press '''2''' for a two-player game, Hustle, Snakefight, and Blockade are available, plus the option to press '''AID''' for help.
====Help====
If you press '''AID''' when any selection list is displayed, the module shows you which keys move the snakes. Player 1, the blue snake, moves by pressing '''↑ (E)''', '''← (S)''', '''→ (D)''', and '''↓ (X)'''. Player 2, the white snake, moves by pressing '''I''' (up), '''J''' (left), '''K''' (right), and '''M''' (down). The display also indicates that you can maneuver the snakes with the optional Wired Remote Controllers by moving the controller lever in the direction you want your snake to go. ''Note:'' In one-player games, the computer is the white snake, and pressing '''I''', '''J''', '''K''', and '''M''' has no effect on the arrow.
When you finish looking at the display, press any key to return to the selection list.
