ROAD UP
by Mike Bell
from ZX Computing Aug/Sep.1984

Pit your wits against this holey program
from Mike Bell in Norwich.


So you've collected your winnings and started for home; of
course it would be just your luck for the bag to burst and
the wind to blow your cash ($) all over the road. It would
also just happen to be a road which was undergoing major
works and is pitted with holes.

Using the cursor keys you can move your alter ego (*) around
the maze-like streets and get back all twenty dollars. These
are visible, unlike the holes which have been covered over
by the over-enthusiastic council. The outline of the street
maze remains the same for each game, but the positions of
the dollars and the holes are generated at random. Your
score is constantly displayed and updated.

At the beginning of the game, the position of the holes and
dollars are shown but one by one the holes are covered over,
leaving you to remember their positions. Falling into one,
needless to say, is fatal.
