The "About" window in the Help menu contains brief instructions how to play each game.
For more detailed instructions, visit
Simon Tatham's homepage
Don't forget that there are variants (harder/easier) in the "Type" menu.
Note:
some games are omitted from the original collection. The reasons are: They need color display, keyboard or right mouse click.
I will try to implement the keyboard option, so some more games will be added to the collection.
