So you’ve cleared ARCADE MODE...
You should be aware of the point sy stem in order to get a high score and impr ove
your ranking. A high score is the only way to get a salary rise!

Rank is gauged by the speed that you can type a word
from beginning to end. Type fast and aim for straight
Rank As.

You will gain more Accuracy Points by typing without
making mistakes. You should not only type fast but also
accurately.

You will not only score 150 points for every citizen you save, but may also acquire
items. Don’t dawdle though, as the zombies with gnaw on you.

Here are a few other snippets of info, which won’t harm you:

●You will get points for every zombie that you defeat. The amount of points that you

get depends on the length of the word.

●If you already have 5 lives and acquire another life, you will earn 150 extra points.

●You will lose 150 points every time you select “Continue”.

✻ There are other ways to acquire points, which are not outlined abo ve.

These are some of the items that you will come across during the game.

ORIGINAL MODE, you can use these items whenever you choose by pressing one of
the Function Keys (F1~F4).
