GAME STATUS DISPLAYS (Continued)
Adjustment,
Informatlon--Ad
At end of the Audit Information presentation, with the AUTO-UP switch in the Up position, the
operator can press the ADVANCE button to proceed to the Adjustment Information portion of the
EARTHSHAKER Game Status Displays, as listed in the EARTHSHAKER Game Adjustment
Table.
The operator can press the ADVANCE button ~ to view each Adjustment Information display item.
To proceed more rapidly through this information, the operator only has to press
and hold
the
ADVANCE button. If a desired item is passed, the operator can use the MANUAL-DOWN switch
position with the ADVANCE button to back up to the desired item.
The EARTHSHAKER Game Adjustment
Table lists the
70
items of the Adjustment Information
portion of the EARTHSHAKERGame Status Displays. Presentation of the displays is similar to that
for the Audit Information (that is, the player 1 and 2 displays combine as a descriptive phrase; the light
type below the column headings names the respective backbox displays where the information
appears, etc.). The Player 3 display shows
Ad
for all
70
adjustment items, so its entry is omitted from
the tabular listing.
The EARTHSHAKER Game Adjustment
Setting Comparison Table shows the five game
'difficulty' Adjustment Items (ranging from Ad 62 - Extra Easy through Ad 66 - Extra Hard). Installing
anyone of these 'difficulty' Adjustments causes the values shown for each of the included game play
Adjustment Items to be installed as a group, changing the level of play from one difficulty level to
another. The owner/operator can use the information provided by the Audit Table items to determine
whether the 'difficulty level' for this game in this location needs to change to obtain a higher level of
earnings from the game or to provide a greater challenge to the location's players.
Once the 'difficulty level' is changed, a careful review of the Audit 1tems will reveal whether the change
has achieved this higher-earnings goal. Sometimes, one (or more) of the Adjustment Items needs
further change to keep the number of plays high, while still keeping the earnings level high.
"Fine-tuning" of the game's Adjustment Items is a key feature of Williams Electronic Games products.
