Before we begin we have to explain something.
You do not have to type in actual commands as in other sierra games.
You can move around with the arrow keys or use an joystick
Directions are given as north, east, south, west, left, right, forward,
backward or travel. (when needed).
Some of the acti
ons in the game are activated by function keys, they will be
shown as {F1} .. {F10}.Or {TAB} as the TAB key.
 
IMPORTANT:
----------
 
It is not our intension to give you a complete read out of the people you can
follow with tracker that's in the MAD.
instead we will give all the locations that you can visit on that day,
if you track ALL the people.
Note down the hints you get,such as partial names,drawings markings etc etc.
If you have trouble playing the arcade sequences try using {ESC} and go
to easy
