World War II is raging across Europe, and Castle Wolfenstein has been occupied by the Nazis and converted into their HQ.

You have been captured behind enemy lines and await interrogation and torture by the dreaded SS in the dungeons of Castle Wolfenstein. A dying cellmate bequeaths you your only hope - a gun and ten bullets.

YOUR MISSION:

Find the war plans and escape from Castle Wolfenstein - ALIVE!

GENERAL RULES OF PLAY

Your escape from Castle Wolfenstein begins in the lowest level of the castle. You will always start in the same castle until you escape from it or unless you generate a new one.

Each room in the castle has at least one doorway that leads to an adjoining from or a stairway that leads to another level of the castle.

As you roam from room to room, trying to find the chest that contains the war plans and the doorway to freedom, you will have to shoot your way past guards and SS stormtroopers. You can replenish your supply of bullets and acquire other supplies by searching guards and opening supply chests.

If you search a dead or surrendered guard and find some items that you need, they will automatically be transferred to your supply. However, your bullet clip will be swapped with the guard's clip only if he has more bullets then you.

You will need to move quickly, so you will be limited to a maximum of 10 bullets, 3 grenades, keys, a bulletproof vest, a uniform and the war plans for Operation Rheingold.

PROMOTIONS

When you succeed in escaping from the castle, the Allied High Command will consider promoting you. If you escape with the war plans you will definitely receive a promotion. With each promotion the difficulty of escaping the next castle increases. The ranks are listed below:

Private			Captain
Corporal		Colonel
Sergeant		General
Lieutenant		???????

GERMAN TRANSLATIONS

The following dictionary will help you understand what the guards are saying.

Achtung!		- Attention!
Halt!			- Stop!
Feuern!			- Fire!

Schweinhund!		- #%$#+!
Was ist das?		- What's that?
