MINER 2049er

· Type Big Five's Phone #, 2137826861, while  playing.  The game will restart the zone when you type the last number in.  Reset the game by pressing START.  Now you can pick which zone (1-10) you want by pressing 0-9.  Also, press SHIFT-# of station you want for that zone.  This also allows for unlimited lives by warping to the same or a different station as soon as you die – no lives are deducted!  {John Hardie}

· The following levels have been found to be possible to clear.

ZONE    STATION
 1-8            ALL
     9            1-9
   10            1-4, 8, 9

Zone 8/station 10 is the hardest, but IS possible.  Zone 10/station 4 requires a lot of thinking/strategy to clear.  For some reason on Zone 10, Bounty Bob walks very fast and jumps a LONG way.  This makes certain levels difficult and others impossible.  However, on Zone 10/station 10, the creatures just move too fast to make it possible to clear.  What would have happen if it could be cleared?

· BUG: The original version had a bug which was cleared up in early production.  On level 6, if you try to walk into by the radioactive waste tank, the wall will stop you.  But if you jump up and do a certain series of moves and then retrace your steps, part of your hat will be inside the tank wall.  If you turn right, you could make him walk through the tank wall and into the radioactive waste.  {Bill Hogue}

· RUMOR: The original run of carts had a bug which caused the game to crash when on the lift level screen.
