| the six pictured show only an example. There are many routes you may take, but
| | * Scrubland |
| to successfully complete the game you must expect to go through four basic
| | * The Basement |
| areas.:
| | * Hell |
| | * The Dungeons |
| | * Underground |
| | * Planet Surface. |
|
| |
|
| 1) THE GARDEN - a complex maze out of which you will probably not find your way
| | Your goal is to complete the marathon while maintaining your energy by eating food and avoiding the ants and the spiders. |
| until you have played the game several times...
| |
| | |
| 2) THE SCRUBLAND - where you can relax a little and try to bring your energy
| |
| back to scratch ...
| |
| | |
| 3) THE UNDERGROUND - miles of stretching labyrinths containing among else
| |
| moving floors and rising heads which you must carefully balance on to cross
| |
| crevasses or climb walls. One slip and you may end up in HELL...
| |
| | |
| 4) THE MANSION with THE LI FT SHAFT- an intricate web of corridors around a
| |
| seemingly bottomless shaft. You will need not only the lift but also the right
| |
| key to the right doors - and one may lead to the Planet Surface ...
| |
| | |
| As your play progresses you will encounter new and varied creatures, learn
| |
| about the value and importance of different objects and their influence on
| |
| your energy and score. Your way to the finish will never be the same as each
| |
| game is set up differently. But there is a way and perhaps you may be the
| |
| first in the thirty years of the Maggot Marathon to find it.

| "THREE... TWO... ONE... GO!". And with a single shot from the starter's gun
| |
| the regional championsoftheAnnualMaggot Marathon bite their lips and quickly
| |
| set off on the most dangerous and highlighted event of the insect world
| |
| sporting calendar.
| |
| | |
| As you set your pace for the race ahead you r mind begins to drift when you
| |
| think about the fame, glory and honour for the first contestant who completes
| |
| the race in over thirty years.
| |
| | |
| You are suddenly brought out of your dream as you realize you are being
| |
| trampled on by an ant. You jump out of its way, thankful it did not follow you
| |
| as others may do. But now in your weakened state you need food. Ah, you see
| |
| some, but how do you get to it? And here is a key and an ant spray but which
| |
| will you take?
| |
| | |
| Watch out for that spider! One touch from him and you are dead! Look - a
| |
| parachute. You may need it later... But you cannot get to it as you slip off
| |
| the moving floor and with your life energy drained plunge to your death with | |
| only the thought of what might have been ...
