.SH DESCRIPTION

and do this before the time runs out.

.PP
.SH HOW TO PLAY
.br
The aim of JAG is to break all of the target pieces on each level,
and to do this before the time runs out.
Keep doing this until you have beaten the last level and won the game.
.PP
Doing this on top of the target cells will break them.
.PP
The faster targets are removed, the bigger is score.
.PP
There are single and double targets. Blocks also can be single or double.
.PP
By breaking pieces and targets, you're earning score which can be spent
for applying a special tool.
.PP
Tools make the life easier as they're mostly intended for breaking several
pieces at a time, including blocks and targets.
.PP
By breaking pieces of the same type, you're also increasing bonus counters.
If you will collect 500 and more items, you can remove all the same
items from the field.
.br
.SH SCORING
You're getting score points for removing game pieces.
Basically, you get 1 point for the ordinary cell and 3 points
for the target cell.
.PP
The actual points you get are multiplyed by bonus value,
so it can be much higher.
.PP
Score bonus is the multiplier which is applyed to every score
point you get during the game.
The bonus raises when you remove target cells quickly enough
to keep bonus timer run.
.PP
By default, bonus timer is set to 5 seconds, but during the game you
can increase this value.
.br
.SH ITEMS AND REWARDS
Every level may contain up to 6 game items. The icon of an item depends
on current graphic theme selected.
.PP
In arcade mode there is a reward, which is given for 500 or more pieces of
collected items - you can eliminate all the items of the collected
type from the field.
.PP
You can choose the power of the elimination depending of how many
items you collected.
.br
.SH TOOLS

and collecting game items. There are 10 tools available in the game
(2 in the puzzle mode).
