Press '''1''', '''2''', or '''3''' to choose the game you want to play. The display then shows the Skill Level selection list. To return to a previous selection list, press '''BACK'''.
===Two-Player Games===
For a two-player game, press '''2''' while the Players selection list is displayed. A selection list showing the three types of two-player games then appears.
* ''Hustle'' - If you press '''1''' to select Hustle, the program displays the three versions of the game. Normal, Countdown, and Countup are played as in one-player games, except that you're now playing against another player instead of the computer. Press '''1''', '''2''', or '''3''' to select the version of Hustle you want to play.
* ''Snakefight'' - If you press '''2''' to select Snakefight, the program displays the three versions of the game: Normal, Countdown, and Countup. The points appear in the target boxes just as in Hustle but are scored differently. If you hit a target box, the points in the box are added to your opponent's score.. If you hit your opponent, you score all the points on the display. Mystery box points are also scored in the opposite manner. Press '''1''', '''2''', or '''3''' to select the version of Snakefight you want to play.
* ''Blockade'' - Press '''3''' to select Blockade. In this game, you try to force your opponent to crash into a border or either snake. No target boxes appear on the display. Instead, you score 100 points each time your opponent crashes. The snakes grow longer as they move through the playing area. Therefore, one player must eventually crash. After each crash, the playing area clears, the countdown starts, and a new round begins with the snakes moving more quickly.
Press '''1''', '''2''', or '''3''' to select the game you want to play. ''Note:'' For information on moving the snakes, press AID or see the "Help" section in this manual. To return to a previous selection list, press BACK.
===Skill Level===
After you select the game you want to play, the module asks you to choose the skill level - Novice, Amateur, or Hustler. In all games, the level you pick determines the length of the countdown before the game starts, the initial and eventual maximum speed of the snake, and the number of segments the snake increases after each crash. Also, the more target boxes the snakes hit, the more quickly the snakes move.
Press '''1''', '''2''', or '''3''' to choose the skill level. The playing area then appears, the countdown starts, and the game begins.
