You operate to save the wounded.
===Player Options===
M*A*S*H allows you to play against the computer or with a friend. After you select the game you want, you then indicate the number of players.
-----
====One-Player Games====
If you choose a one-player Rescue game, the computer plays the game as Trapper John (blue helicopter and landing pad), and you play the game as Hawkeye Pierce (red helicopter and landing pad).
If you choose a one-player Surgery game, the computer does not perform surgery but gains points for each second you operate and for each unsuccessful operation. In one-player Surgery, the scalpel appears on the left side of the screen and you begin surgery there. At the top of the screen, a score counter records your successes.
====Two-Player Games====
If you choose a two-player Rescue game, you can be either Trapper John (blue helicopter and landing pad) or Hawkeye Pierce (red helicopter and landing pad).
If you choose a two-player Surgery game, Hawkeye uses the left-hand scalpel and Trapper, the right-hand. Hawkeye goes first every time, and each player has 30 seconds to remove the shrapnel. A time clock and score counter located at the top of the screen show your success.
===Getting Started===
When the M*A*S*H title screen appears, press any key to begin. Follow the directions displayed on the screen to begin to play M*A*S*H.
