PROLOGUE
A story of times long gone by, tells us of the three-headed Morgul, who lives a secluded life in his kingdom. This Morgul is the cause of all the fears and nightmares of mankind. It is furthermore said, that in ancient times he was banished to an unknown dimension by the hero Devolon. Fear and sleepless nights disappeared out of the people's lives.
For some time now people have again been tormented by nightmares and suffer from a serious state of dread and fear. Hardly anybody dares to set a foot onto the streets at night and a dreadful fear that Morgul has returned to his kingdom is alive in the people's minds again. As the only man on earth whose courage has not yet deserted him, you are sent off, once again to free human kind from its burdon of fear. You have been armed with the latest weapons and technical equipment for this mission. Find Morgul in his kingdom, and destroy him for once and for all.
THE GAME
In Turrican you will guide your hero through five different worlds, in which he will be confronted by various perils. Three of these worlds extend over three levels, the remaining two worlds over two levels. Ever changing enemies, will constantly try to destroy you. You will have to use your weapons skilfully in order to survive the varied levels. To aid you in battle, you may gather up weapons and other extras on your way, e.g. forceshields and extra lives.
Examine every level closely you will find new surprises and useful items everywhere.
HOW TO WORK THE GAME
General information: The game is played with joystick and keys. Owners of an Amiga may use a joystick with two independent firebuttons. This is explained below.

Player ducks away
and press SPACE:
Player will transform into a gyroscope
Joystick up: Player jumps. If he is the gyroscope, he will transform back to normal again.
Joystick down: Player ducks away, e.g. from enemies.
Joystick down and press space (or Amiga: Joystick down and press second firebutton.) The player will transform into a gyroscope. While in this state the player is invincible and will destroy enemies on touch. The gyroscope spins automatically, and can only be directed to move left or right with the joystick. This shape also allows you to pass through narrow corridors. The player may transform into a gyroscope 3 times in every life.
Joystick left/right: Moves player left/right.
Fire
Pressing firebutton briefly

Pressing firebutton briefly: Player fires. If you have already collected the multiple shot or the laser, the according weapon will be used. The multiple shot can be extended in up to two degrees by collecting the right symbols.
In the first degree (basic equipment) the player fires 9 horizontal shots.
In the second degree 3 salvos are fired simultaneously: 3 shots in a 30-degree angle upwards, 3 shots horizontally and 3 shots in a 30-degree angle downwards.
The third degree resembles the second, except that the angle changes to 45 degrees.
The laser fires horizontally, and can be extended by gathering up the corresponding symbols. Its length extends from an eighth to half of the width of the screen. The laser has a high penetration rate, making it very effective when fighting against several enemies simultaneously.

During his mission the player will find different symbols with useful functions. Here's a listing:
Red - activates multiple shot; if already active, it will be
extended
Green - activates laser; if already active, it will be extended
Blue - extends lightning
Light blue - activates force shield, making the player invincible for a
short duration. Enemies will be destroyed on touch during
this time.
Yellow 'P' - recharges vitality
White 'G' - the player gains a grenade
White 'M' - the player gains a mine
White 'L' - the player gains an energy line
Grey '1 up' - the player gains an extra life
Diamonds - once the player has gathered up 300 diamonds, he recieves
another 'CONTINUE', i.e. having the chance of continuing a
game after all lives have been lost.
The player has 3 lives at the start of each game. He can lose them in three ways:
1. Time, indicated on the display, runs out. The screen display will announce TIME OUT.
2. The player has lost all of his vitality. A loss of vitality occurs every time the player touches an enemy or is hit by enemy fire.
3. The player falls into an abyss.
If you lose a life the number of gyroscopes, mines, energy lines and grenades will be reset to 3. Lightning, multiple shot and laser will be reduced, if not already to minimum strength.
THE DISPLAY
The player can gain the following information from the display (from left to right)
- Number of lives
- Number of gyroscopes (above the lives-indicator)
- Number of CONTINUES
- Time
- Number of diamonds
- Number of grenades

- Number of energy lines

If you achieve a top score you may enter the highscore table.
After entering your name press RETURN. Then a menu will appear. Enter the main menu by pressing the firebutton. Pressing the S-key will prompt a request to insert side 1 of your disk. Return to the menu by pressing the RUN/STOP-key, or press the firebutton to save a highscore.
