Alfreds Kistenlager Schiebereien

Brief English Instructions
by D.A. Brumleve
This mono-only program will provide you with hours of challenging
puzzles. The rules are simple: With the arrow keys, you control
a worker who must shove barrels around a warehouse and place them
in the proper locations. You may not spend time leaning against
walls. The barrels must be pushed (that is, you must position
the worker "behind" them) rather than pulled.
To get started, place all of the files in the same folder or
directory. The program requires 350K of RAM, so if you have a
520, start with no memory-resident programs. Run AKS.PRG. An
alert box will appear. Click on "Weiter" and the program data
will be loaded. When the main menu appears, you'll find yourself
presented with these choices:
_A_ufhoeren (quit) _E_ditor (Create screens)
_M_enu ACC's (access to ACCs) _K_isten schieben (shove barrels)
Type the initial letter of the desired command to execute it. To
play, for example, press . You'll then be asked to specify a
level number. Start with 1; it's the only one you may be able to
solve! The screen is then filled with a top-view of the
warehouse. Each destinations for a barrel is indicated with a
diamond shape with the letter "L" inside. Use the arrow keys to
move your worker such that he shoves the barrels to the desired
locations. Be careful that he doesn't run into walls; if he
does, a cartoon character will appear and threaten to put him on
report. After enough crashes into walls, the cartoon will come
up with an ultimatum. This can be identified by non-German-
speakers, as it asks a question ending with "(j/n)". Type
for "Ja" (you've just be asked "Is that clear?!"), or else you'll
wind up on permanent vacation and have to seek employment anew.
Once you complete a level, you'll be given an opportunity to type
your name and save your exploit to disk. If you make a fatal
error and get stuck, quit the level by pressing and then
restart the game from the main menu.
There is no time here to go into the use of the editor, but there
are plenty of screens already built into the program, and,
frankly, if you are clever enough to finish all of them, you're
clever enough to use the editor without instructions! For full
instructions regarding the program, please refer to the German
text file provided by the authors.
Have fun! |
