                             SPACE PANIC

                       by Universal for Coleco

Space Panic is pure entertainment.  The game starts with
your spacemen pitted against read, green, and blue space
monsters.  You must dig holes in the girder floors to trap
the monsters and then fill them quickly in order to make the
monsters fall to their doom on the floor below.  The
Creature (red) only has to fall through one floor but the
Boss (green) must fall through two floors and the Don (blue)
must fall through three.  An exception to this rule can
occur if you can maneuver them into a pattern where either
the Boss or Don falls on any other monster, or is fallen on
top of by any other monster.

You must hurry to complete each level before you run out of
oxygen.  Your spaceman can fall through one or even up to
four floors without hurting himself.  A quick way to get the
levels completed is to trick the monsters into falling on
another monster--it also earns you extra points.  You
receive bonus points for any time remaining on your OXYGEN
REMAINING TIMER after you have cleared the entire level.
CAUTION:  If a creature escapes from your trap or the Boss
doesn't fall through two floors, they will change.  The
Creature will become a Boss and the Boss will be come a Don.
