Press + to choose the BEGINNER or CHAMPION course and 1 or 2 to choose a one- or two-player game.

Press ENTER or the fire button on your joystick to begin your patrol.

Press SPACE BAR once to pause during the game. Press it again to resume play Press + or 9 (BACK) during the game to return to the game option screen.

Press 8 (REDO) any time to restart the game with the same options. This can be done when GAME OVER is displayed to avoid having to go through the option screen again.
