HOW TO PLAY
Set the game on a smooth surface so that it is
easily reachable for all players.
Players choose a colored canister and sit directly
behind it.
Move the GAME switch to either
GAME MODE 1 (one player game) or
GAME MODE 2 (two, three or four player game).
Press the ON button to turn on the game.
If you have selected GAME 1, Mike will explain
that it is your job to collect screams and laughs.
He will then tell you to press the START button when you are
ready to begin. Press the START button and enjoy GAME 1!
If you have selected GAME 2, Mike will welcome everybody
to the game and ask for the NUMBER OF PLAYERS.
At this time, each child will press the canister in front of them.
Players can "join" the game in any order they want as
the game automatically registers each player.
Once all the players have "joined" the game, Mike will ask
that someone press the START button and GAME 2
will begin!
Now it's time to start having fun catching screams and
laughs! The first one to get 10 points wins the game and
gets "Top Scarer Award" from the monsters!
The game play is different depending on which game mode the players select. Both game modes are
described in further detail below.
GAME MODE 1
GAME 1 is for one player only. The top of the game
will begin to whirl and as the door opens, a scream
or laugh will be heard! You need to hit the "scream
canister" in front of you to "capture" the sound!
The light in front of you will light up when you
are successful!
The game keeps score for each successful capture of
either a scream or a laugh.
In GAME 1, keep practicing as long as you want with
no limits. Only SCREAMS AND LAUGHS are heard in
this mode.
GAME MODE 2
GAME 2 is for 2,3 or 4 players. In GAME 2, in addition to hearing SCREAMS and LAUGHS, you will
also hear phrases of speech (talking!). You score points for correctly hitting your canister after hearing
a scream or a laugh, but will lose a point if you press your canister after speech!
As in GAME 1, you need to hit the "scream canister" in front of you to "capture" the scream or laugh.
The player who presses their canister FIRST when they hear the scream or the laugh gets the point!
The light in front of you will light up when you capture a scream or laugh successfully!
As the monsters and the door whirl around,
the object of the game is to listen carefully
for screams or laughs. Remember if you press
your canister when you hear Mike talking,
instead of a scream or a laugh, you will lose
a point!
The first player to score ten (10) points WINS
the game! Play continues until one player wins.
When a player wins, you will see a "light show".
After a few seconds, the game automatically
gets ready to start the next round of play.
Enjoy the game and remember, "MONSTROPOLIS
NEEDS YOUR HELP!" So be sure to capture plenty of screams and laughs!
SCORING FOR GAME 2:
I n GAME 2, players score:
- 1 POINT for each scream captured.
- 2 POINTS for each laugh captured.
Players also LOSE 1 POINT when they press their canister when they hear speech instead of a scream
or a laugh.
