........... R U M M Y D R O P R E A D M E ............... Welcome to Rummy Drop, the game that combines the fast action of Tetris with the card-playing logic of Solitaire! .....................Installation............................ Rummy Drop requires no setup or installation program. To run Rummy Drop, just copy all of its files to a folder on your hard drive (e.g. C:\RummyDrop), then double-click the file called RUMDROP.EXE. It's that simple. .....................Registration............................ Rummy Drop is distributed as a shareware program. This means you are free to evaluate it for a limited time (10 days), and that if you continue to play it after this period, you must send a license fee ($7) to the author to "register" your copy of the program. Of course, nothing bad happens after 10 days. So really, this just means that I personally would really appreciate it if you would send in your registration. Why should you? * Because it gives you a chance to offer feedback/suggestions. * Because it helps me improve the game and write more like it. * Because it gets rid of the annoying download timer and enables the personal high score list. * Because it helps support the shareware game industry, which brings you low-cost, high-quality games like this. * Because it's the right thing to do. * Because it's so cheap -- less than the price of a pizza! So how do you register? Just print out a copy of the ordering form found in the file ORDER.TXT. Fill it out and send it along with a check for $7 (U.S. dollars) to: Rummy Drop Registration c/o Susan Brooks P.O. Box 85714 Seattle, WA 98145 USA Once I have received your order form, I will reply with a registration code that lets you officially register your copy of the game and enable its remaining features. .......................Web Site..............................
