INTRODUCTION
Whomp 'Em is the story of Soaring Eagle, a young Indian Brave who ventures into
the world seeking totems for his magic pouch. Whomp 'Em consists of eight
worlds. The first world acquaints you with the game. The next six worlds may
be traveled in any order. The final world is a secret!
GETTING STARTED

title screen appears. When you're ready to begin playing, press START. 3. You
will enter the first world of Whomp 'Em.
OBJECT OF THE GAME
The object of the game is to maneuver Soaring Eagle through each of the eight
worlds, fighting off whatever creatures cross his path and collecting the
valuable objects (magic items) that the creatures leave behind once they've
been defeated.

2. Fire Wand (Fire Test): Shoots a flame.
3. Cloud (Ice Ritual): Allows Soaring Eagle to fly.
4. Ice Crystal (Water Test): Freezes enemies.

6. Dart (Secret Cliff): Allows Soaring Eagle to shoot spear.
7. (?) Unknown: You will have to find out the power of this totem on your own!
(*) NFSB (Note From Steve Begin -- me!): The screen shots are awful so it
doesn't really matter if you can't look at 'em!

MAGIC ITEMS
There are eight different magic items for Soaring Eagle to collect. Magic
items appear when you destroy an enemy. To collect the item once it appears,
simply maneuver Soaring Eagle so that he comes in contact with it.
