Knockout Whist››                             Atari User Vol.3 No.5››Beat your Atari computer in this familiar card game. You need a combination of›luck and skill - luck is involved when you are dealt your hand, skill as you›deduce which cards the computer still has left and you choose the card to lay.››The object of the game is to win tricks so you can choose trumps for the next›hand. Once you take all the tricks in a hand you win the entire game.››You start with seven cards - in each subsequent hand you'll have one less.›Whoever takes the most tricks in a hand chooses trumps next time - a›considerable advantage. In the event of a draw (you both have the same number of›tricks) the computer will randomly determine trumps.››When the game has loaded and is run you will be presented with seven cards -›trumps will already have been randomly chosen and indicated in the bottom left›of the screen. Also, the message "My trumps" or "Your trumps" indicates whether›the computer or you have control of that particular hand.››To lay a card, press keys 1 to 7 which correspond to the cards displayed from›top left. The computer will then display its card, and decide who's won.››When you have to choose trumps, use Option, Select and Start as explained on the›screen.››The game will give you hours of fun as you challenge the computer. Good luck.›
