Goal:

Use your mouse to hold and move game pieces and put them in their respective places on the game board before the board pops up and your pieces go flying.

Control:

While you have a piece "in hand" with the mouse, press and hold the space bar to rotate the piece counter-clockwise.

Press the "C" key to rotate the camera for a custom viewpoint -- the TIMER won't start until you actually click on a game piece, so you can set up the game perspective to your liking first.

If a piece rolls off-screen, rotate the camera with the "C" key to search for it!

You may restart the game at any time by pressing the "R" key.

Scoring:

The quicker you get each piece in, the more points you get. For each piece you put in, you score TIME LEFT (to granularity of 1/60 second) as your points (e.g. 50.5 seconds left = = 50.5*60 = 3030 points) -- so the quicker you get the first piece in, the better.

If you complete the game by getting all pieces into their homes before the TIMER runs out, you get 1000 bonus points for each second that passes until the TIMER reaches 0.

Hints:

If a teetering piece looks like it just needs a little tap to fall into its home, try giving it a really gentle nudge with a quick single click of the mouse.

HAVE FUN!

Of course, there is a persistent list of the top ten list of Champion Shapion players in the game -- how much practice will you need to make it onto the list?

Cheers,
