O N.. BY WILLIAM SHOCKLEY..
MY MOTHER, WHO IS AN EXCELLENT.BRIDGE P
LAYER, HATES THE GAME OF.HEARTS, WHILE I
, A PITIFUL BRIDGE.PLAYER, LIKE HEARTS.
COULD THERE BE.A PATTERN HERE?.. HEA
RTS IS A CARD GAME THAT.RESEMBLES BRIDGE
BUT DOESN'T REQUIRE.ALL OF THOSE BIDDIN
G RULES. ALSO,.WHEN YOU MAKE A MISTAKE
IN PLAYING.HEARTS, YOU HAVE NO PARTNER T
O YELL.AT YOU, KICK YOU UNDER THE TABLE,
AND.GIVE YOU NO PEACE WHEN YOU GET HOME
..... IN OTHER WORDS, HEARTS IS A.FRI
ENDLY CUTTHROAT CARD GAME. THE.BASIC RU
LES ARE GIVEN IN THE BOOT.PROGRAM SO I W
ON'T GO INTO DETAILS.HERE. ONE OF THE M
ORE SPECTACULAR.PLAYS OF HEARTS IS TO "S
HOOT THE.MOON" AND BILL SHOCKLEY, A.SPEC
TACULAR SORT OF GUY, GAVE HIS.SIMULATION
THAT NAME BECAUSE HE.EXPECTS YOU TO TRY
TO SHOOT IT EVERY.HAND. IT'S NOT EASY
TO TAKE EVERY.HEART PLUS THE QUEEN OF SP
ADES... YOUR THREE OPPONENTS WILL TRY
TO.THWART YOU AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY..THE
Y ARE A MOTLEY ASSORTMENT OF.HEARTS PLAY
ERS WHO SOMETIMES PLAY.LIKE PROS AND SOM
ETIMES LIKE FISH... YOU CAN USE EITHE
R A JOYSTICK IN.PORT 2 OR THE KEYBOARD.
YOU WILL.ONLY NEED THE CRSR UP, CRSR DO
WN AND.THE RETURN KEYS... THE STANDAR
D RULES OF HEARTS.APPLY, EXCEPT THAT IN
SHOOT THE MOON.YOU CAN TOSS A HEART (OR
THE QUEEN).ON THE FIRST TRICK. SOME PEO
PLE.BELIEVE IN A FIRST-TRICK AMNESTY, BU
T.NOT SHOOT THE MOON... THE GAME ENDS
WHEN ONE OF THE.PLAYERS REACHES 100 POI
NTS AND WHOEVER.HAS THE LOW SCORE IS THE
WINNER. IN.THIS GAME ANYTHING BUT FIRS
T PLACE IS.A MORAL FAILURE, SO DON'T LET
A.LITTLE MACHINE BEAT YOU... THERE'S
ALSO AN OPTION FOR USING.THE JACK OF DI
AMONDS AS A POSITIVE.CARD. IF YOU TAKE
IT IN A TRICK, YOU.GET TO SUBTRACT 10 FR
OM YOUR SCORE,.UNLESS IT WOULD CAUSE YOU
R SCORE TO.GO BELOW ZERO... I HAVE IN
CLUDED A SPECIAL VISUAL.TREAT FOR ANYONE
WHO SHOOTS THE MOON..BLAME IT TOTALLY O
N ME, YOUR IMPISH.EDITOR. SOME DAYS I J
UST FEEL LIKE.THE CONTRARIAN I AM...
I'VE ALWAYS WANTED A HEARTS.SIMULATION A
ND I APPRECIATE BILL.SHOCKLEY'S PUTTING
THIS TOGETHER. WE.HOPE YOU DO, TOO.....
