                    ::STORYLINE::


Ferdinand W. Templeton is the referential archeologist
at the University of Michigan. His important discoveries
in such exotic places as Egypt, Philipines, Mexico or
Ribagorza have  made him a true idol among teenagers and
pensioners, hungry for good ol-schooled adventure in the
fashio of Rick Dangerous. Pity that hes so short in
money so hes unable to keep with his adventures and
risky endeavours. With no sponsor... theres nothing to
do.

Nevertheless, theres a dim light at the end of the
tunnel! Hes about to marry the rich, beautiful and
powerful governor of Alabama, Mary Lou Kapowsky. Well,
thats only if everything ends up nice, cause his stag
party at Costa Daurada has been the wildest and ravest
party that can be remembered... Not even the Expo! Too
many orange vodkas... his most precious and rare
artifacts are now scattered around the bottom of the
sea.

The four of them. That is: The Mask of Chichonitz, The
Jewel of Ebro, the Sacred Scroll of Ahamaramu IV and the
Pitimini Flower XIX. Those artifacts were going to be
presents to the rich, ugly and powerful ex-governor of
Alabama Lester H. Kapowsky III, Mary Lous daddy, as a
good-grief sign after thirteen failed marriage
proposals.

So there you go, with phobia to water (it aint the same
being a brave experted archaeologist and a clumsy scared
diver wannabe) in your boat, praying to be helped in 
finding the four artifacts which will grant your
marriage with your lover... and, by theway, grant you
enough cash to keep searching from glory, fame and
treasures for the rest of your life as well.

So jump into water and find those artifacts, if you know
whats what. But remember: you wont last very long
under water without breathing! Beware octopuses,
jellyfishes and assassin piranhas. And seaweeds are said
to be quite mischievous.


========================================================


                    ::THE GAME::

You have to search for the 4 artifacts scattered around
the bottom of the sea. Once you have everything, carry
them to your boat. Thats your goal.

You have to look after your oxygen reserves. Oxygen
diminishes if you touch seaweeds or fancy underwater
animals. And just being underwater diminishes it as well,
but happily at a much slower pace.

To recover it you wether go to the surface to breathe or
find bubbles. Each bubbles grants you a "life", this is,
100 extra oxygen units. You start the game with just
100 units and no extra "lives". So you know you have to
look for oxygen!

You can shoot harpoons which will paralyze your enemies
momentarily. They are quite limmited. Recovering
artifacts give you a few extra harpoons as well. Save
them, they can be quite neccesary.

Inside the ship youll find levers which can be
activated to make some gates inside the ship to open.


========================================================


                    ::CONTROLS::

You can use the cursor keys or the joystick (port 1)

CURSOR KEYS / STICK.- Move your character
SPACE / BUTTON.- Shot harpoon.
