Setup instructions:

Pkunzip tairdem3.zip and run Setup.exe,
and follow the instructions on the screen.
If you get the message:

c:\windows\system\cnc32.dll:Setup cannot
replace this file because it is write
protected.

during the setup, just click "ignore".

The instruction funktion in the game is
not working quite right, but this problem
can be solved if you move this document
to the catalog where you have set up the game.

The Story

The planet Mobius was once a peaceful planet,
where all animals lived in harmony with each
other. But one day, a mad scientist called
Dr Robotnik took control of the planet. He
captured many animals and transformed them
into robots. But, the planet had a hope,
Sonic the Hedgehog, the super-fast hedgehog,
and his buddy, the two-tailed fox Miles "Tails"
Prower. Together they got rid of Robotnik,
and the planet became peaceful once again.

The animals on the planet wanted to do something
of fun now when the scientist was gone. They
were impressed by the super-speed of Sonic and
Tails, and they wanted to have a race
competition with racing cars. Tails liked this
idea, and he started to practise on his own.

The race competition starts today, and to race
the final races, you have to qualify through
20 cources. When all the cources are completed,
you will drive four final races, where you will
challenge four other drives. The winner of the
last race will be the racing champion. Can you
lead Tails to be the champion?


How to play

At the title screen, you can press SPACE to start
the game, or press F1 for help (this text), or
Alt+F4 to quit the game. If you start the game,
you will first of all see a map of the course,
with some information about the course. You
can read how much time and fuel you will have
when the game starts, and how many laps you
have to complete. Press SPACE when you are
ready to race the first race.

At the race, you move Tails in his car with the
arrow keys. Watch out of rocks, and other things
on the course. There is a time limit and a fuel
limit as you are racing. If any of them reaches
0, the game is over. You lose one time point
every second, and you lose one fuel point every
2nd second. You can pick up more fuel as you
are racing, there are some red "F" on the track.
Run over them to get 5 fuel points. There is also
a fuel way, where you can get extra fuel, 15
points, but if you get this fuel, you will lose
25 time points as well.

Good luck! :)
