''Starch'' is a computer game written by Mark Dixon for the Acorn Archimedes computer. The object of the game was to help the principal characters complete tasks related to laundry duties in the company in which they worked. Starch was retailed through Dabs Press which was closely associated with the publisher Alien Images. The game supported either one or two simultaneous players. It featured a 3D playing area, digitized sound, speech and music, and used a 256 color screen mode. ==Gameplay== Starch saw two manual workers, ''Harry'' and ''Dave'', on a frantic clothes-cleaning night shift. The game supported either one or two simultaneous players. In addition to the two main characters the game also included a computer controlled character called ''Sam'' that attempted to stop the progress of the main characters. In one player mode the second character would be controlled by the computer. There were five different levels to complete, each consisting of a specific task. In order to complete a task the player had to work out how to operate various pieces of machinery controlled by buttons, levers and ropes. Each level ended when the available time expired or a specific 'Quota' had been met. Following the completion of each level the two characters would be shown in the manager's office. If the level had been successfully completed then they would jump up in the air in celebration. If the level had not been completed then the manager would pull a lever that caused a trap door to be opened, while uttering the words "you're fired!" 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Starch (game)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
