               PRESENT WELL HARD ANOTHER QUALITY ATARI ST PRODUCT
                       ---------

                                  INTRODUCTION
                                  ------------

The alien scientist Argon has been terrorising the galaxy for some years, the
Empire was powerless to stop him.

The final straw came when Argon decided to invade the peaceful worlds of Xenon
4. Casualties where thankfully very few, this was mainly due to the worlds being
evacuated before the attack. The few who stayed where no match for the hordes of
Argon who quickly took control with fierce force.

The Empire was now in tatters and in a last desperate stand they enlisted
the help of some mercenaries from the outworlds.

The outworlds are the worlds where no one but criminals and the insane decide to
set up home, this is due to the fact that no police force was established. This
was also partly due to the fact that high radiation bombards the surface of the
worlds every few weeks, the effect on the population is instant insanity.

To prove their worth the mercenaries must complete a mission set on the 3
occupied worlds of Xenon 4. The mission is to retrieve 8 objects and proceed to
the exit site, they will then be transported to the next zone.

Once you have completed the mission you will be assigned to destroy Argon.

                 The future of the Empire rests in your hands.


                                  INSTRUCTIONS
                                  ------------

Well Hard is auto-booting so loading is very easy, you just insert the disk and
press RESET, the game will then auto load.

Once the game has loaded you should be presented with some information regarding
registration etc. To advance through the pages press SPACE.

When you have completed this the WELL HARD logo should be presented and some
music should start playing, after a few seconds the high score table will be
displayed.

To start the game press SPACE and you will be presented with the PASSWORD
selection screen.

If you are using an UNREGISTERED copy (IE you havn't paid Cybernation œ4.99 and
received the special password) then just press ENTER to skip the password
screen. More on the password screen later on.

World 1 should now be loading, once this is complete you should see your hero
and a few baddies on the screen. For the first few seconds you are protected by
a shield so the baddies can't hurt you.

The object of the first 3 worlds is to collect the various objects from each
level.

Once you have collected all the objects from that level then proceed to the far
right and touch the flashing exit sign. If the sign isn't flashing then you
havn't collected all of the objects.

If you come across a tankard then collect it, it will give you an extra life.

To kill the baddies you jump in the air and then land on them, some baddies
require a number of hits before they are destroyed.

World 4 is just a straight forward shoot em up where the object is to destroy
all of the baddies that come towards you in waves. Once this is complete then
you must destroy ARGON himself.

                              PASSWORD PROTECTION
                              -------------------

This game has password protection,this means that unless you enter the
REGISTRATION PASSWORD you will only be able to play the first world.

       To receive the PASSWORD you just send œ4.99 to the address below:-

      CYBERNATION SOFTWARE,1 RYELANDS PLACE,KILGETTY,DYFED,WALES.SA68OUX

        Please make all cheques/postal orders payable to "SIMON SCOTT".

The password screen is also used for skipping worlds. Each world has a password
which is given to you when you start that world.
