  *  In making The Blag, we have attempted to create an           *
  *  adventure game as close as possible to a simulation,         *
  *  without losing the fun of an adventure game. To this end,    *
  *  we have used quality digitised graphics of locations,        *
  *  witnesses and the trial. We have also included a             *
  *  near-animated sequence of a Police dog attacking its victim. *
  *  You may end the game at any time and watch the trial of      *
  *  the accused unfold, assessing the evidence you have          *
  *  gathered against them.                                       *
  *  Do not be put off by its low price - œ7.99 + 50p postage &   *
  *  packing; this is a quality game. Included is a free pen      *
  *  and entry to our competition.                                *
