Punch & Judy/Gameplay

Controls

 * Q, A, O and P: Use these four keys to make Punch move up, down, left and right; you can also press Space by itself to make him hit the other cast members over the head with his truncheon (except Mr. Policeman!), Space and Q together to make him jump, and Space and O together to make him drop a sausage (he starts the game with twenty of them). You can also press H to pause (and restart) the game, and 0 to abort it - however, you should only do the latter if you have no chance of winning (i.e. the tide has come too far in for you to finish the stage in time).

Mr. Punch
The protagonist for the game; due to technical limitations, he is coloured white in the ZX version. His objective is to collect the eight parts of his show's booth and take them to the Bridlington beach so he can put it together, then find the other cast members (Judy, Baby, Joey the clown and Toby the dog), hit them over the head with his truncheon and drag their unconscious bodies back to the Bridlington beach (while avoiding the crocodile and Mr. Policeman, as the former shall cause the tide to come further in if he bites Mr. Punch and the latter will arrest him causing any booth part or fellow cast member he may have with him to disappear elsewhere) - and once the booth and all the other cast members are assembled at the beach, Mr. Punch must take part in the show itself, clobbering the other cast members (again avoiding Mr. Policeman).
